On January 2, 1931, he called for Congress to take over the chairmanship of the republic.
He remained in power just long enough while making the call for elections to the members of the Liberal Party to achieve taxation power for Jorge Ubico.
It is said he received specific instructions from Jorge Ubico and the Liberal Party to convene elections quickly. Andrade left power as a result of the elections that handed the presidency to Ubico on February 14, 1931.
