[aepubliean A. P. Leased wire1

MEXICO CITY, May l5-The Mo relia tragedy, in which a core of per-"ns lost tiielr lives in conflict b.tu-%n Catte;' g, polio. ... rs.i.- calls. and inv. .:on of t3e legislative halls here ly protesting radi s's have set the stage for contest of strength in the chamber of deputies between the Partido Liberal constitu- tionalists, dominant political party, which claims President Obregon as it's leader, and the radicals, which for the moment are united.
 Stormy sessions are predicted this week and the battle is scheduled to start tomorrow when the Partidos will seek a majority vote for their resolutions adopted in secret caucus last night calling for the resignations of Celestino Gasca, governor of the federal district, Luis Morones. gov ernment purchasing agent, and Col onel Raygadas, inspector general of police.
 The Partidos have also decided to request the grand. jury to order an investigation of Felipe Carrillo and Antonio Dfaz Soto Gama, radical deputies, who are alleged to have. been fnstigators of the invasion on Friday of the chamber by a group carrying the red flag of communism For the moment the Partidos. hereto fore recognized as extremely liberal, are considered conservatives and to their ranks have come Catholics and numerous independents. comprising. according to the Partidos a majority Opposed are the several radical groups
 The Partidos. after caucusing last night, asserted they had the power t1 nrtct nd das. Gasca, as the governor of the federal district. is an avowed radical. Morones is the leader of labor feder- ation and Raygadas is described as "the tool of both"
 The Morelia incident of Thursday in which Isaac Arriaga, head of a commission in Michoachan, was one
 of the victims, has brought to a eli
 max the ill-feeling apparent since the agrarian bill was introduced ten days
 ago. The radical group which in- vaded the chamber Friday asserted 1 it came as a protest against Arriaga's death but when the tribune was for
 cibly occupied the speakers indulged
 in general invectives against all who
 opposed this program.
 There were frequent "vivaS' fol Rolshevism. While the radicals were still in the chamber the Partido lead CTS consulted President Obregon who l however, in general statements to tht press has not indicated that h. wishes to clash personally with hi:
 adversaries. The president was in.
 clined to believe that the clash in thu streets of Morelia was due to the re fusaI of the Catholics to disperse af ter being ordered to do so by thu 1 police.
 Meanwhile. advices from Morelis
 show that the city is still under vir
 tual martial law but that the inter
 ment of the victims had proceede,
 without incident Resentment by tn Catholics is taking the form o avowed intention to force the resig nation of the governor of Michiocan
