CHARGES CARRANzA

lar, Gen. Gales States,
Explaining Revolt.

Aqua PRIETA. April - (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 Culiacan.
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. cafes,
two opinions arose as TO the metnoo
of establishing the supreme command
cry of the movement. Some argued
the office should be definitely assumed
by the governor of Sonora with a 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 governors recog--
nizing 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
ment il a free choice were given ali
the hackers of the movement.
Our movement" said Gen. Gales, rs
indeed for true civil government and
protests against the military abuses
of Carranza, who IS useless1y trying
to cloak his eoterie with pur-
Iesoue of false democratic govern
ment; therefore it is not the mill
tary leaders who signed and sustain
this plan who should impose su-
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 a revolu-
tionary movement was nominated by
the first soldiers to take up arms.

COOLIDGE TALKS
ON AMERICAMSM
Says American People "Walk
With the Republican
Party"
ISSUES OF RACE SIMPLE

Washington. Oct. 27.-The republi-
can party walks the high road OF
American government for Ameticans''
and the American people walk with
that party,~ Gov. Coolidge declared in
Q final prediction statement made
public here last night.
The republican vice~presidential
candidate said the issues OF the cam
paign in the minds of most Ameri-
cans has been reduced to one; the
question whether our government shall
or shall not be constitutional govern
ment, government of laws and not
of men,"
Gov Coolidge's statement follows:
The issues of this campaign are so
simple and they are so well understood
by the people that there can be no
doubt of the verdict which the voters
VIII give on Nov 2: These issues may
most Americans have been condensed
into one. That is, the question whether
our government shall or shall not be a
constitutional government, a govern
ment OF laws and not of men.
When the wise and unselfish men
who laid the foundation for the United
states OF America, indicated the future
for us, they well knew that issues Of
the moment would change; they well
knew that each generation would face
new problemS. as they knew courses of
history, as they knew the record of
schange and progress from the past
they foresaw the changes and the
progress that must come from the
future
when they shaped a document for
the inspiration of their fellow patriots
and for the guidance of the nation
they left the way open for such growth
and such adoption OF new devices as
the exigencies of time would demand.
But they created and left for us their
descendants an instrument which was
soundly constructed and which was
calculated as the basis for the perma-
nent structure Of liberty in our
a Rests Upon Constitution.
~The republican party demands cor
the foundation of our American Con-
stitution. 1t will not depart from 1t.
The democratic party under the spell
of dominating personality has
stepped down from that foundation
