lar, Gen. Gales States,
Explaining Revolt.

Aqua PRIETA. April "a (by the
Associated Press).-The Carranza ad-
ministration in Mexico is corrupt and
officials unpopular with Carranza, but
elected by popular vote, have been
ousted by the military in several
states who have practiced the utmost
brutality, according to charges made
here by Gen. =. Elias Gales, COM
mander of the revolutionary FORCES Of
Sonora, in a statement issued here
today.
The Sonora revolutionary army,
under Gen Angel Flores. has pro-
gressed twenty miles beyond Cul1acan.
capital of Sinaloa. according to IN
formation given out tonight at the
headquarters here of Gen. Gales.
When the wording OF the plan OF
Aqua Prieta" was being debated by
the signers. according to Gen. Gales,
two opinions arose as TO the method
of establishing the supreme command
cry of the movement. some argued
the office should be definitely assumed
by the governor of Sonora with view
of maintaining a unity of command
and strengthening the principle of
authority, while others. led by Gen.
Gales. argued Gov. de la Huerta
should only be supreme commander
until delegates OF the soNetHoi . leeO6
MIXING the plan were able to meet
and nominate a commander of their
own choice.
: Cen. Gales argued. he said. that
strength would be given the move
plent IL free choice were given ali
the hackers of the movement.
Our movement" said Gen. Gales. lis
indeed for true civil government and
protests against the military abuses
of Carranza, who is uselessly trying
to cloak his coterie with Dur
lesaue of false democratic govern
ment; therefore it is not the mill
tary leaders who signed and sustain
this plan who should impose SUI
preme commander for the movement
Our way is that of lawfulness, and
we have parted for all time to come
with the way of our historical coups
d'etats when the leader of revolu-
tionary movement was nominated by
the first soldiers to take up arms.
