C.W. Massaguer 1925 #2

In the September 1925 issue of Social, founded by Conrado W. Massaguer and one of Cuba's most popular magazines of the day, Emilio Roig de Leuchsenring, the magazine's literary director, wrote an article on Gustavo Gutierrez, celebrating this young man's remarkable professional accomplishments at the young age of 29. He begins the article by announcing the inauguration of a new section for the magazine entitled "The New Ones" where they'll feature the 'true generation of contemporary Cuban intellectuals' beginning with Gustavo Gutierrez who most recently was named by the Law Faculty of the University of Havana and the President of the Republic both Professor of International Public Law as well as Counsel to the Ministry of State, respectively.

Roig de Leuchsenring also states, "He's held important positions such as Secretario de la Primera Seccion del Primer Congreso Juridico Nacional, Secretario adjunto de la Sesion de la Habana, Secretary of the American Institute of International Law, Secretary of the Cuban Society of International Law and member of the American Society of International Law, the International Law Association of England, the American Academy of Political and Social Sciences (of Philadelphia)... graduating with honors in a double major (Civil Law and Public Law) Gustavo Gutierrez began his legal carreer in (Cuba's most prestigious) law firm of Dr. Antonio S. de Bustamante. He is one of the few young intellectuals of today who exercises his brilliant qualities in the fields of law and letters...Conscious of his rebellious nature, he (G.G.) didn't enter into politics until he created his own law firm in 1920, joining the Liberal Party at the invitation of General Jose Miguel Gomez...and forming part of the formidable Asociacion de Veteranos y Patriotas, of which the Consejo de los Cinco he became a leader, impeding and refusing the success of the (American) interventionist tendency...Elequent orator, profound author, untiring fighter, Gustavo Gutierrez is one of the most valient young men of his day in areas of politics and intellectual pursuits, of whom it can be said, that unlike most, the future belongs to him."
