MEXICO WORRIED
over new LAWS
Business Fears Injuries if Labor
Bill Passes

Mexico City, Sept. up - The
Mexican business world fears con-
gressional enactment of a new la
Dor law which, the industrial and
commercial leaders say, may ham
dicap the country's commerce and
industry severely.
The new session of congress,
which began last night and contin-
ued to December 81, is expected
again to consider the labor bill,
which passed the chamber of dep
uties last year and was favorably
received in the senate but died
upon the calendar in the closing
days OF the session.
The bill, demanded by organized
labor and viewed sympathetically
by the government, requires en-
ployers to share profits with en-
ployes and prescribes in great de-
tail workmen's benefits required of
employers. Some manufacturers
and business men, both foreign and
Mexican, have said these require
ments would so burden their bust
ness as to force them to close. Of
fetal reports were made to the
United States government last year
that the measure would be more
| harmful to American business in
terests in Mexico than the alien
land and petroleum laws.
Business in Mexico was bad be-
fore the religious crisis began, and
it has been further affected by the
economic boycott fos.ered in oppo-
sition to the governments religious
regulations.
Labor leaders deny the proposed
law will be unjustly burdensome
upon industrialists. They say it is
nothing more than such enlight-
ened labor legislation as some
other countries know.
Some of it's most important pro-
visions are:
Employers must share profits
with employees, or pay them fixed
bonus. Employees committees are
empowered to examine employers
books and fix the amount of profits
to be divided with workmen.
Employers must pay minimum
wages, the amounts to be deter
mined by workmen's committees.
Eighty per cent. of the employees
Of every concern must be Mexican
citizens. The eight-hour working
day, with overtime payments, is re-
quired. Workmen's compensation
for injuries is provided for. En-
ployers are required by the bill to
deposit with the government such
sums as the president may require
to guarantee the employers fulfill
ment of its terms.

himself: "Welh guess you know
who I am"
He was fed, put to bed and today
was taken for sightseeing tour be-
fore being placed on train.
