SONORA LAND \ LAW OPPOSED
 BY MEX|CANS
Foreigners Are Not Only Ones 0bjecting to New Agrarian Measure Which Would Cut
 Up Many Individual Tracts

DOUGLAS, Aug. 13.-Complaint against operation of the Sonora agrar- ian law, which proposes to break up the large estates of the state and will affect, at 8 conservative estimate, two-thirds of the states area, does not center among foreigners. Native land owners denounce the law even more strongly than do the foreign holders.
 The law would allow one person to hold no more than 50 hectares (125 acres) of land in the communal zone around municipalities, no more than 100 hectares of irrigable land outside that zone; no more than 300 hectares of dry farming lands nor more than 10000 hectares for stock grazing pur- poses.
 The law would mean breaking up of individual holdings without proper compensation, Mexican land holders assert, and a number of them have banded together to take steps in Mexi- co City to have the national govern ment nullify the state legislatures ac- tion. The stockmen allege that ap- proximately 20 hectares of grazing land are required for one animal per year.
 Projaganda directed against the law is appearing in Mexico City pa- pers. Fl Universal of August s con- tained a long editorial denouncing the law. The paper after reviewing the act said that it was Legislative blun- dn- in tho dfHnaffAra 4F nk &k real meaning of article 27 of the fed eral constitution. The Sonora legisla- ture is contradicting natural laws and trying to bring about miracle by pen and ink this to change the habit of the world and organize collectively for social betterment."

Trades Council of Phoenix Protests City Buying

PHOENIX, Aug. 13.-Pro- test by the Phoenix Trades Council against the city com missions proposal to bring in surplus army foodstuffs for sale to the public here will not affect the city's ac- tion, if it is decided to take it, it was announced tonight by City Manager Thompson. He said the foodstuffs would be intended primarily for the poorer people of Phoenix. The Trades Council opposed the plan on the ground that it was a possible move to prevent the local public from bringing in it's own small consignments of army food stuffs by purchases from the postmaster, according to the plans first announced for the sales.

K. Shidehara to Be New Jap Envoy to Washington, Report
 In San Francisco; Standing With u. s. Govt. Not Known

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 13.-K. Shi- dehara, vice minister of foreign af- fairs in the Japanese cabinet, has been appointed Japanese ambassador at Washington to succeed Viscount Ishii. according to cable advices received to- day from Tokio, by the Japanese American, local Japanese language newspaper.
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-Although the state department has not been ap- preached with view to learning whether Kijuro Shidehara, vice min ister of foreign affairs in the Japanese cabinet will be persona grata to the United States government as success cessor to Viscount Ishii as ambassador to Washington, it was learned official ly tonight that the vice minister oc- cupied the leading position among those considered for the post. It has been believed here for some time that Viscount Ishii would not return to Washington because of political changes in the composition of the Japanese cabinet.
 Any statement that MT. Shidehara had been appointed ambassador, it was announced, would be premature inasmuch as the state department had not been advised. The feeling of Pre- mier Hara that the vice minister could not be spared from the cabinet at this time is understood to be an obstacle to his immediate appointment

Grey Is Temporary
 British Ambassador

LONDON, Aug. 13.-Viscount Grey, secretary of state for foreign af. fairs, has agreed to represent the British government at Washington pending the appointment of a perma- nent ambassador.
 Viscount Grey, 1t is learned, has not yet decided when he will go to Washington, although announcement of his plans is expected soon.
 His poor eyesight, which has given him much trouble. caused him to consent to only a short term as am- bassador. A year ago it was feared he might become blind, but since then his eyes have improved although he still does little reading or writing.

NOFUND ASKED EXPERIMENTATION

. PHOENIX, Aug. 13-The state land commissioner today decided not to ask for a levy to provide funds for the appropriation of $1OO,OOO author. ized by the last legislature to be used in connection with federal funds for state wide survey of possible irri- gation projects.
 The reason for this action, it was said, was that no federal appropria- tion has been made for the work. It was decided. however, to ask for a levy of $50,000, as this amount might be needed this year, and there still Is possibility that congress may make an appropriation.

 WORKER THREAT
Strikers Object to the Loss of Senority On Return to the
 Plants; Violation of the War Pact Charged By Employers

CHICAGO, Aug. 13.-Threats by representatives of emroyes 10 give up the arbitration plan of settling labor troubles in meat packing houses were made during hearings today of wage increase demands before Federal Judge Alschuler. The theats followed reaffirmation by Judge Alschuler Of his decision of yesterday that workers who struck last week should lose sen iority rights and return as new em- ployes.
 J. w. Johnston, secretary of the stock yards labor council, stated shat he intended resigning his position and letting the organization close its doors. ''I won't take their money when I can't deliver the goods" he said. The seniority makes the agree ment impossible"
 Charges that packers had used all methods in their means to crush or ganized labor, were made by John Fitzpatrick, president of the Chicago Federation of Labor. He said packers
 
 stock yards for the purpose, had at- tempted to bring about race riots at the yards during the recent trouble and had used underhand methods gen. orally to bring labor into discredit
 Attorney James G. Condon, repre- senting the packers, denied the charges that the employers were in any way violating the agreement un- der which packing houses have been run during the war, but accused work CTS of violations when they repeatedly went on strike. Judge Alschuler stat ed that the agreement was based on the proposition that the men should remain at work, and warned them that employers could construe a walkout as violation if they so desired. The question of seniority rule came up to- day when complaint was made by 125 workers at the Independence Packing company plant, who had gone on strike last week and returned to work Monday, had been discharged without reference to the seniority rules
 Since the men when they returned to work weer not told that they were. new employees, Judge Alschuler held that the seniority rule must hold in this case and workers last employed should be layed off first In the case of Armour & Co.,, and Morris & Co.,, where returning employees were made to fill out requests for employment, and treated as new men, they will be regarded as such, the judge ruled.
 When the labor representative inti- mated that the arbitration hearing might as we'll end, Judge Alschuler said he was willing, but the workers representative continued with their case and it was announced the hear ing would be resumed tomorrow.
 Judge Alschuler has received num- Der of letters from packing house em- ployes requesting him to withhold his decision in the matter, because the writers stated union leaders did not represent them.
 Some of them asked that the local demands be heard with those of work CTS in St. Louis, Omaha, Kansas City, Lincoln and other western points, and stated that arrangement for protection of these demands would be made at of thei representatives at City August 19.

PEORIA, Ills, Aug. 13.-Three per sons were shot and seriously wounded and score of other persons received cuts and bruises when several hundred strikers and sympathizers charged the Keystone Wire and Steel com pany's plant in South Bartonville, five miles from this city. tonight.
