(By Associatd Press. ]

BUENOS AIRES, July 20.-The cor respondent of La Nacion at Rio Janeiro sends the following official communica- tion issued today in connection with the revolutionary situation in Brazil
 ''The federal forces, commanded by General Potyguara, occupied further ad vanced positions yesterday afternoon. Airplane reconnaissanees have been made for operations that are now pro- ceeding.
 Our aviators made several flights over Sac Paulo. An airplane, belong ing to the woman aviator, which was being used by the rebels, was destroyed and rebel lieutenant and five soldiers were made prisoners at Ribeiro Preto while attempting to flee"
 The Italian residents of Sac Paulo have organized a military legion which has been incorporated into the rebel forces defending the city, according to dispatch to La Prenza.
 The officially heralded decisive ac- ton by which the Brazilian government expects to put an end to the Sac Paulo trouble will find the rebels we'll pre- pared, according to uncensored dis patches reaching Buenos Aires from near the scene of the struggle.
 Have Confidence
 With Approximately 10000 well armed and munitiOned men, the rebels are said to be awaiting with confidence an attack by the federal forces. It is asserted that the rebels hold all the strategic points in and about the city of Sac Paulo and also have already placed batteries on what are known as the Eng fish Bluffs, which command the roads leading to the city and from which the Portugese a century ago used to watch for hostile Indians.

STATE PROVIDES
 FUNDS TO RETURN OLIVER CAMERON
Deputy Sheriff To Leave This Morning For
 Oregon

Chief Deputy Sheriff Henry s. Hill announced Sunday night that he will leave early Monday for Portland, Ore, to return Oliver Cameron to Birming- .hsg to face ehagges Of assault with in. tent to murder and carrying concealed weapons.
 Announcement of the trip was made by Hill following receipt of message from Governor Brandon that the state of Alabama would guarantee expenses of the trip. The governors action was the only means of obtaining funds for the journey, the county having announc- ed that it could not provide funds for the mans return.
 When the sheriff returns with Cam eron the closing chapter in a crime that was committed more than 9 years ago will commence. After lying dormant during more than a score of years, the charges against Cameron were renewed during the past week following dis patches from Portland stating that Cam eron had attempted suicide. In a state ment to police after he had been taken into custody, he gave as his reason re- morse over what he then believed to be a murder he had committed in Shades Valley in 1902.
 These dispatches resulted in an in vestigation by local officials, and if was revealed that W. J. Gay, the man whom Cameron thought dead, recover. ed from the gun wounds his assailant had inflicted and still is living. He was located near Atlanta, Ga, and in a statement to newspapers declared that he was eager to prosecute Cameron.
 Search of county records brought to light two indictments that had been sworn out for Cameron, and it is on these that he will be brought back to Birmingham and tried.

Coolidge Party Stranded
 On Visit To Wakefield

(Leased Wire to The Age-Herald)
 WASHINGTON, July 2o-Presi- ident and Mrs. Coolidge, their son, John. and. the Presidents father, ! Col. John Coolidge, were stranded when they left the yacht Mayflow- CT, on which they were taking weekend cruise, early Sunday morn ing to go ashore and visit the birth place of George Washington at Wakefield, Va, several miles down the Potomac from the capital.
 When they returned ot the river, after spending about an hour in the isolated vicinity of the first Presi- dents birthplace, it was discov- cred that the tide had gone out 90 that it was impossible for any of the small boats from the Mayflower to reach shore and take them back to the yacht.
 The nearest landing was at Colo nial beach, summer resort, 15 miles up the river, and the Presi- dent and his family were driven there in the automobile which had been sent down from there to trans port them to Wakefield, while the Mayflower steamed up the river to the same point. The party was taken aboard the yacht at Colonial Beach and continued its cruise. News of the incident was received at the White House Sunday afternoon.
 Undecognized For Time
 The President and his family, wait ing for the Mayflower to approach, sat in the automobile for some time at Colonial Beach before the huge crowd gathered at the resort recog- nized them. The attention of the crowd was attracted when the May flower drew up in the river, and a small boat put out.

Then 1t was suddenly realized that the man sitting in the lone car, parked to the side, was the President and the crowd began ot gather. When the Coolidges embarked in the small boat, to return to the May flower about 1000 people stood on the dock, cheering. The President, standing up in the boat, waved his hat as he and his family were car ried back to the yacb,

 The '. # President Coolidge to Wakefield nad been arranged some days ago but no announcement had been made of it. The President had long had a desire to see the historic spot now abandoned and rarely vis- ited, though thousands of tourists make pilgrimages to Mount Vernon, where Washington lived and is buried. Only secret service men were with the President and his family when they m6tored to Wakefield, which is about mile and half from the river.
 A simple marble shaft is all that marks the birthplace of the first President. In the Sunday quiet, Presi- dent Coolidge stood for several min utes, uncovered, before the memorial, paying silent tribute to Washington. He and his family remained about the vicinity for about an hour, be- fore returning to the yacht to find that they had been stranded.

 Demands
 WASHINGTON, July 20.-Action may be taken this week by the United States to secure amends from the Pers- ian government for the death of Robert W. Imbrie, American vice consul at Teheran, at the hands of religious mob.
 K Any action, however, will await a complete and official report from the American legation at Teherati, in order to place responsibility. An apology, and perhaps an indemnity, likely will be demanded for the death of the vice consul.
 The expression of regret of the Pers- ian government, transmitted through the embassy here, was well received, but it is indicated that this govern ment cannot afford to let the matter rest, even though it is found that the Persian authorities did all in their power to protect Imbrie after he had been attacked by the mob.
