President Jorge Ubico y Castañeda resigned on 1 July 1944. “For the last two weeks of June, students, teachers, workers, women, and middle-class professionals had demonstrated their opposition to his dictatorial policies. The old dictator fought at first and then decided that he had had enough. He left power in the hands of a military triumvirate”.[1] The new junta was made up of Buenaventura Pineda, Eduardo Villagrán, and Federico Ponce Vaides.[2] On July 4, the most ambitious member of the junta, General Ponce, easily convinced a Congress to elect him provisional president.[3] Ponce’s troops round up the congressional delegates and force them to vote for him.
