oT Tomas Castellanos, representative of
Gov Felipe Carrillo. OF Yucatan, Mexico,
4 has given out this statement denying
/ derogstory reports of conditions in Yu-
catan
80, Items published in the American
press which tended to injura, the Gov
ernment OF the State Of Yucatan have
been reproduced in the Reristo de Ytt-
cGton, daily paper which is edited in
the city Of Merida. capital of the afore-
said State, and which paper devotes
itself systematically to attacking all
acts OF the Yucatan Government. due
principally to the differences of political
opinion and to the fact that its editor.
y emy Of the Governor.
- 81 consider It necessary and absolutely
Jiist to refute these articles In order
Ito prevent any evil effects which may
l. appear against the Governor Of the State
-.-of Yucatan.
~ "I am the attorney for the Government
Of the State OF Yucatan and also the
personal representative of the Governor,
from whom I have received instructions
to refute all the slanderousS assertions
relating to the Government and to his
person. Because of intimate connections
with the Government Of the State of
Yucatan have a perfect knowledge
Of all the acts and general tendencies OF
. the latter.
''In the first place. ] must point out
that 1t is true that the Government OF
the State of Yucatan is absolutely So
cialistic. for which reason its actuation
tends constantly toward procuring the
:. capitalization and effectiveness of all
81 things which may. directly or indirectly,

prejudices rooted in people who are never
lacking IN communities in order to ten
aciously oppose the development and
advancement of modern ideas which
cause the progress OF humanity. W
The Socialist Government of Yucatan
has .endeavored TO make tangible and
practical the principles and ideas OF
Socialism, attacking fervently. and with
all courage. any depressing manifesto
tions against civil and political liberty
which might In any manner restrain the
sound and spontaneous development of
human activity. 1t is well known that
the general motto and the supreme as
piration of Socialism is the destruction
of all oppression and tyranny which
might in any way obstruct the advance
ment Of mankind, both In its individual
and social life. And that Is the ex-
PLANTATION for the Socialist Government
of Yucatan having established the in
stitution Of divorce in the form and
manner that 1t has done; that is
the reason why 1t has distributed. and
Is distributing. land to the workers, and
1t is the motive. also. for its having
broken the chains of the latter, making
them as free as any other citizens of the
Republic. a thing which never took
place before. as everybody knows, in
Yucatan and that Is the reason. like
wise. why all retrogressives and friends
OF the old ideas are bitter and ire
conclable enemies of the Socialist Gov
ernment of Yucatan, the disappearance
OF which they are trying anxiously to
obtain by all possible means, employing
all conceivable methods to gain their
purpose, by resorting, without any
scruples whatsoever. to calumny and def
amation in order to destroy. in their
opinion. the reputation of a cause which
defends itself il we take into considera-
ton the Justice and the nobility OF lts
beneffcent tendencies.
1.-THE institution of divorce exists in
Yucatan in the most ample and liberal
manner possible. but always subject to
definite procedures and rules, the OBJ
ject 6f which is not only to guarantee
the free exercise of civil liberty in this
respect but also to guard and protect
all the rights and obligations originat-
ing from the conjugal tie which has
existed, making very sound provisions
for the children and for the divorced
couples themselves. Undoubtedly with.
in few years the form and nature
of divorce as it exists to-day in Yucca
tan will be considered as the most
natural and simple of the acts of civil
life. And, apropos of this point, I am
going to refer to that which seems,
principally, to- be the primordial pur-
poses of the attacks on the Government
of Yucatan, which are to attempt to
show the public that the Government
of the State of Yucatan Is directed and
managed by the caprices and whims Of
woman who is said to be called
Blanca Carbenno.
MY personal knowledge REGARDING all
the administrative acts of the Govern
ment of Yucatan authorizes me to state
that the assertion made regarding the
existence of a woman intervening in
the governmental acts of Yucatan Is
an absolute falsehood. Such woman
does not exist, nor has she existed, and
she was invented for no other purpose
than to destroy the reputation of the
Government Of the State OF Yucatan,

ATHENS, Dec. 16.-Further trials y;
Constantinists dominate Greek poll
tics. While many Greeks openly ex-
press repuSnance at bloodshed, there
is no popular indignation. The army
is delighted in that the Ministers who
crippled the military establishment
have been eliminated. The foreign
missions, which failed to save the exc
cuted Ministers, are redoubling their
moral pressure to obtain the acquittal
of those still in Jail.
The Greek revolutionaries have de-
cided to adopt constitutional methods
preparatory to u general election.
Constantin Rants. Foreign Minister,
said political prisoners would not re-
ceive capital punishment without a
trial. He admitted that the death
sentences imposed on the late Minis
ters seemed excessive, although he is
among the revolutionaries who shared
the responsibility. A policy of moder-
alton will be adopted by revolutionary
headquarters. where the military MEM
bers of the revolutionary tribunal said
their functions had ended with the
trial of the late Ministers.
kalugeroulos, a former Minister un-
der Gounaris. and Const3ntine's pro-
vost marshal of Athens are the most
prominent awaiting trial. The latter
is accused of permitting the organiza-
ton of the notorious clique of Prince
Nicholas, which employed thugs
against the Venizelists. He also must
answer a charge of completely in sew
eral assassinations. An editor who
wrote a defeatist appeal to the Greek
troops in Asia Minor. telling them to
come home. and an ailing, aged man
who recently opened his house to a
meeting of. those opposed to the roy
alists. are among the prisoners. Thirty
officers are being held on charges OF
neglect of duty
The. president and members OF the
revolutionary tribunal answered a sug
gestion that they had unjustfiably expe-
dited the executions by pointing out that
the proceedings lasted two weeks, and
observed all constitutional forms, al
though that was notregulred when revo-
lutionary powers were unlimited They
admit that the principal accusation
against the Ministers was political. in
volving charges of isolating Greece and
permitting conditions which led TO dis
aster in Asia Minor. They deny parti-
sanship in passing sentence. as only four
of the fifteen judges are former Veni-
zelists. The others are mostly Officers
from Asia Minor embittered against
Constantine's influence upon the army.
The tribunal reopens it's sessions again
within a week. The indications are that
moderation will prevail under new pre-

Less than four hours after sentence
had been pronounced came the execu-
tions. and the time between the moment
the Ministers left the automobiles that
took them to the scene and the crack of
the rifles of the firing squad was just
four minutes.
According to eyewitnesses present

patients flattened their noses against the
windows to watch his departure. Four
soldiers helped the sick Minister to walk.

STRIKE AT VERA CRUZ
CRIPPLES SHIP LINES
Ward Line Official Says Only
Course Is to Wait.

New York steamship lines operating to
Vera Cruz have cut down by 25 TO so per
cent. their shipments OF freight as re-
suit OF the dock strike at the Mexican
port, it was learned yesterday The
walkout virtually has suspended activity
on the terminals which handle 80 per
cent. of the imports into Vera Cruz, and
the lines have advised shippers that IT is
not practicable TO attempt 10 deliver
more than moderate quantity Of freight
at this time.
Among companies taking this move
is the Ward Line. an official of which
said yesterday that the steamship inter-
ests can do nothing but await patiently
the settlement of the labor troubles. Any
steps to combat the strike would be fruit

ment have asserted there will be no
more executions.
Eyewitnesses have given striking de-
tails of the recent trials and executions.
The Ministers did not think their lives
in danger and remained in Athens. Gou-
narls and Stratos were playing poker
when the revolutionary troops arrived 10
arrest them. Poker plays part III
Greek history, because Gen. Hadjanestis.
who also has been executed was charged
with enjoying a poker game in Smyrna
while his troops, under no command, fled
before the Turks.
Gounaris, who really was afflicted
with typhus, was absent during most OF
the proceedings. His defence was that
he had obeyed Gen. Popoies, and he
showed that SO per cent OF the Greeks
had voted for the recall OF Constantine.
He asserted he would have committed
a violation OF public confidense had he
followed any other policy. But he had
nothing to say when il was demonstrated
that he had persisted In holding the Pre-
mlership on two occasions when his ma
jority was cut to one vote.
Stratos made the ablest defence, as

follow the Kings wishes. but that he

Court Decision Forbids COL

cept by Suit.
By the Associated Press.


WILMINGTON. Del. June IA. -
Judge Whitaker Thompson Of the
United States district court yesterday
filed decision restraining the Inter-
nal revenue collector for Delaware
from collecting by distraint from AL
fred /. du Pont taxes amounting to
s1,576,015 on stock dividends Of the
E. l. du Pont de Nemours & Co,
The court. however. provided that the
collector shall not be restrained from
filing a suit at law for the collection
of the taxes.
The decision restrains the collector
from selling property of Alfred l..
du Pont to meet the tax payments.
The taxes were assessed on a 200 per
cent stock dividend to stockholders
of the E. l. du Pont de Nemours
Powder Company after it was re-
organized into the T.. I. du Pont de
Nemours & Co, Inc, Delaware cor
poration. The assessment was not
made until December 81, 1919, and
Mr.. du Pont contended that the gov,
ernment was barred by the statute of
limitations from collecting the tax.
although the United States supreme
Court held that stock dividends were
taxable AS income. The suit of MIR.
du Pont was a test one for himself
and all other stockholders.
To allow the collector to distrain
upon the property of Mr.. du Pont to
force the payment of the taxes as
sessed, Judge Thompson decided.
would result in an injustice to the
taxpayer for the reason that. under
the law, five years having expired
from the date the tax was due. Mr..
du Pont would be barred from max
ing a claim for a refund of alleged
excessive taxes.
