DR. GETULIO VARGAS
Buenos Aires. March 21.-(AP)- Brazil stood Monday at the most important political crossroads since the 1930 revolution. A decision was imminent on whether Getulio Vargas, de facto president, or another will restore constitutional government in the western hemisphere's second largest republic.
Rio Grande do Sul, president Vargas' native state, has deserted his regime, charging he has delayed unduly the restoration of legal government, following his seizure of power two years ago. Unless the president is successful in placating his southern Brazilian cabinet colleagues at a conference at Rio de Janeiro Monday his position may easily become hardly tenable.
A more speedy termination of the de facto status of the government is virtually the sole issue in the political crisis.
