MEXICO CITY. July e7.-The

down \ request b. President obre-
son that he be granted extraordinary
powers to adjust article % OF the
constitution. which nationalizes oil
deposits. The senate almost stimuli
tsncol-.y voted 10 acoede to h re-
quest.
Yesterday morning President obre
Eon called a joint conference of the
leaders Ia both houses and explained
the necessity OF immediate action on
article -. as well as pleading for
permission 10 proceed with its adjust
ment in a manne acceptable to the
nation and its interests. His own
party. the Liberal Constitutionalists.
decided in a caucus 10 deny the presi-

Article % has long been a stumb-
ling block in the relations between
Mexico and the United States. the lat
ter government cha~racterizing the
section as conhscatory and against

The action of congress last night Is

BIG GORGOsAURuS
HAS BEEN MOUNTED
REMAINS OF MAMMOTH PREHIS-
TORIC ANIMAL ADORNS MA
TURAL HISTORY MUSEUM.

NEW YORK-(By A. P.)-Best
minds of the American Museum of
Natural History agree that the Cor
gosaurus, gigantic beast which
lived way back in pale7onic times, ran
when in hurry, on it's hind legs.
Nobody ever saw Gorgosaurus,
but scientists shopping around his
ancient habitats have found enlight-
ening footprints and other evidence
that he once lived in what is now the
Canadian province of Alberta. They
show that this carnivorous dinosaur
used all fours in ordinary travelling
but being spurred to high speed, the
big fellow got up on his hind legs.
Accordingly, Gorgosaurus skeleton
recently acquired by the museum
from the Red Deer River beds Of AL
berta has just been mounted in his
running pose.
In explaining the probable habits
of the Gorgasaurus, DR.. w. D. Mat
thew curator of the museum'e de-
partment of vertebrate palaeontology,
pictures the prehistoric monster in
chase of couple of unwary duck
Billed dinosaurs that have carelessly
wandered from the banks of rivers
and lagoons which served them as
refuge from land-lubbers like the
Gorgosaurus.
The Gorgosaurus was long on speed
but short on brains,s DIR. Matthew
said. In fact he was a real lowbrow
among the ancient animals. Intel
lectually he would have been a good
companion for crocodiles which are
put at the foot of the class in most
ZOOS
So, DR. Matthew said, this enor-
nous but arther stupid beast would
rely on his speed to catch the fright
ened duck-billed dinosaurs. Standing
up on his rear legs and using his
massive tail to balance the body he
would pursue his prey Catching them,
he would attack ferociously with
claw and tooth. The duck-billed di-j
nosaurs had no means of defense, It
caught, and they were promptly con-
signed to a place on the Gorgosaurus'
menu.
