		Batlle had two terms (190307 and 191115) in which to initiate his policies, but, realizing that a future president or dictator might reverse his program, he promoted a constitutional reform to end the presidency and replace it with a plural executive, the colegiado.
		Batlle's audacious plan split the Colorados and reinvigorated the Blanco opposition, and in 1916 the colegiado was defeated in the country's first election by secret ballot.
		Batlle retained a significant amount of prestige and support, however, which allowed him to strike a compromise that partly rescued the colegiado; thus, in a constitution promulgated in 1918, executive responsibility was split between the president and National Council of Administration.

	Radio El Espectador - Batlle en The New York Times (versión original)
		Batlle (pronounced BAH-zhay) is the first civilian president since the military gave up power 15 years ago to promise to search for the remains of dissidents who disappeared in the 1970's and 1980's in the wake of a nasty urban guerrilla war.
		Batlle said in an interview in which he seemed to bask in his idiosyncrasies by banging his fist on the desk, tossing a cigar across the room to a friend and occasionally making points by switching from Spanish to English in a playfully exaggerated British accent.
		Batlle helped out by personally pleading with her to take a blood test for DNA identification, which showed that she is in all probability related to Mr.

	Uruguay
		The civil war triumph of Batlle y Ordóñez and the Colorados meant the end of the coparticipation politics that began in 1872, the political and administrative unification of the country, the consolidation of the state, and, most profoundly, the end of the cycle of civil wars that had persisted throughout the nineteenth century.
		Batlle y Ordóñez firmly believed that the principal public services had to be in the hands of the state to avoid foreign remittances that weakened the balance of payments and to facilitate domestic capital accumulation.
		Batlle y Ordóñez and his political faction of the Colorados lost these first popular elections, but the Colorados continued to be the majority party, and the 1917 constitution, the country's second, reflected many of the changes that had taken place under Batlle y Ordóñez.

		Batlle never succeeded in establishing a policy of agrarian reform because rural landowners had sufficient power in the legislature to block such reforms.

	A-list message, Re: [A-List] Uruguay's neighborly comments on Argentina
		Batlle, who sat for an hour-long interview at his presidential office in Montevideo, blamed Argentina for costing Uruguay its investment-grade credit rating and draining almost a fifth of his country's bank deposits and 40 percent of its reserves.
		Batlle today sought to muffle the impact of his statements, which were carried on television and radio stations throughout Argentina.
		Batlle said he is seeking a free-trade agreement with the U.S. because he feels limited by the Mercosur customs bloc with Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay.

		The great Colorado president José Batlle y Ordóñez launched the state social programs and advocated a plural executive, under which the country was governed from 1919 to 1934 (and again later).
		Thus in 1950, although the Blanco leader Luis Alberto de Herrera outpolled his two Colorado opponents, Andrés Martínez Trueba on the sublema called "List 15" and Cesar Mayo Gutiérrez on "List 14," he lost the presidency to Martinez Trueba after the Colorados had combined the votes of their sublemas.
		The election of 1954 brought another victory for the Colorados, specifically List 15 led now by Luis Batlle Berres, and the Blancos had to be content with their three seats on the Council--where they sniped at the Colorados and contributed to the domestic unrest brought on by an economic decline.
