biography

After studying law , he was appointed professor at the chair for civil law at the University of Santo Domingo . Between December 1914 and May 1916 he was a member of the government of President Juan Isidro Jiménez as Minister of Justice and Public Education (Ministro de Justicia e Instrucción Pública). In 1922 he was the namesake of the Hughes Peynado Plan, which provided for the end of the occupation by the USA . Between 1931 and 1934 he was first Minister of War (Ministro de Guerra) and for months Minister of the Interior and Police (Ministro de Interior y Policia). As such, after the resignation of Rafael Estrella Ureña from April 21 to June 3, 1930, he was temporarily acting president.

In the 1934 presidential election, which resulted in the re-election of Rafael Leónidas Trujillo Molina unopposed , he became its vice-president. In this capacity he was again acting president from November 1, 1935 to February 1, 1936. For the presidential election on February 28, 1938, Trujillo named him his successor and received 319,680 votes in the unopposed election. On June 18, 1938, he was sworn in with Vice President Manuel de Jesus Troncoso de la Concha . The reason for the nominal surrender of power by Trujillo was the international protest against the murder of 20,000 to 30,000 Haitian sugar cane workers, which Trujillo had initiated in 1937 . In fact, Trujillo kept the real power in his hands. During his tenure, a law was passed on May 31, 1939 to reorganize the administrative structure , which provided for the creation of three new provinces: Benefactor, Libertador and Monseñor. At the same time, the population was divided according to the number of inhabitants: according to this, large cities (Ciudades) were municipalities with more than 10,000 inhabitants, cities (Villas) were those that were the capitals of regions or had more than 1,000 inhabitants, and finally small towns (Poblados) were all localities with fewer than 1,000 inhabitants.

When Peynado died on March 7, 1940 in a hospital in Santo Domingo , Vice President Troncoso was sworn in as his successor five days later, on March 12, 1940. His daughter was married to Aníbal Julio Trujillo Molina, a brother of the two Presidents Rafael Leónidas Trujillo Molina and Hector Bienvenido Trujillo Molina . In addition, his half-brother was married to the daughter of the former President Ignacio María González .
