Church EMBLEMS
ON HOUSES BANNED
0bregon May Prosecute
Those Who Decorated for
Catholic Congress.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
MEXICO CITY, October lin con-
sequence of President Obregon's demand
for action by the procurator general OF
justice against those responsible for
inducing" inhabitants of Mexico City to
decorate their homes for the eucharistic
congress, in session here, the organizers
of the congress have decided not to
carry out the last two ceremonies in
their program-a procession in large
private park and pilgrimage to the
Guadalupe shrine, a few miles from the
city.
In his instructions to the procurator
opinion that the decoration of the
houses implied manifestation of an
external cult" which is explicitly
forbidden by law and which. he de-
clared. was inspired by the directors
of the Eucharistic Congress. The
President also ordered the procurator
general to take note of the number
of foreigners involved in violations.
and demanded list of their names
and addresses.
The archbishops and bishops at
tending the congress have refused to
comment on the case. News of the
Presidents action created 4 sensation
similar to that surrounding the eN-
pulsion from Mexico of the papal nun
clio, Mgr. Filippi, in 1928. and gave
rise to rumors of the possible eXpul-
sion Of three foreign bishops, a Tex
an, Cuban and Salvadoran.
These rumors. however, are not
credited in church circles.
