CONGRESS At NoGALES
PROJECTS PEACE PLANS

NOGALES, Ariz., July 3i.-Juan
Sanehes Azcona, intellectual director of
the revolution, said today that the con-
ference last night was not a peace con-
ference, but one in furtherence of the
revolution. No overtures Of peace
would be accepted from The federal
government and the revolutionists
would only be satisfied with the un-
conditional surrender and the elimina-
ton Of the federal regime.
Among the points up for considera-
ton last night We're the turning back
OF the governorship to Maytorena and
the effecting Of a reconciliation be
tween General Alvaro, Obregon and
Salvador Alvarado, between whom, said
Sanchez, there had existed a slight
misunderstanding.
These ends were accomplished. May
torena will resume the yovernorship
and within a couple Of days MaytOrena
and Pesquiera will go to Hermosllo as
two brothers for the encouraging eff
feet such return will have on the
populace. Alvarado and Obregon will
return to the field to take commands.
Obreson, desisting from his previously
planned expedition into Chihuahua. will
succeed Governor Pesquiera as chief
Of the military zone with headluartcrs
in IIermOsillo, eventually to take a
command into Sinoloa. An immediate
advance upon Mexico CITY was decided
upon, even though to accomplis" his
move. territory in The north now held
by the revoluti0niStS might have % be
