Says Creeds Are Respected.
In a statement given out by the
mission, interviewing leaders Of both
sides, the President is quoted as

spects all religions equally and gives
to all the same protection and lib

The President, according to the
statement, reiterated that the Cath

disobeyed the laws and brought
about wars. disturbances and blood
shed in Mexico and declared that the
religious laws Of Mexico would never
be repealed, even If the Catholic

no disturbances beyond a few of a

TALES OF SOVIET
SPLIT HELD FALSE
Moscow Declared as Quiet as
Any American Town, Due
to Summer Slump.

MOSCOW, August 1O.-Wild stories
Of revolutions, arrests and executions
in Russia. emanating from the imagi
nations of diligent correspondents of
various western capitals, have not
stirred the Moscow newspapers to re-
ply or interfere with the operation of
trains or peaceful activities in other
parts of the Soviet Union.
Even last months party sQuabble
which apparently started the fiction
lists competition, has dwindled here
in a ponderous newspaper essay dis
cuSsing the issues from a doctrinarian
standpoint. Zinovieff. the central fig.
llre in the recent incidents, has gone
on a two-month vacation, and others
are scattered in the lazy resorts of
Crimea and the Caucasus region.
Numerous Americans who recently
arrived are leaving this week for
tours along the Volga in the Ukraine
and Crimea, expecting to return at
the end Of the month. The peasants
are now busy harvesting the crops,
while the factories are working full
time and are badly behind needed pro
duction. Even party issues are dor
mant until the meetings of the Third

mittee of the Russian Communist
party in the Autumn.
Uprising Report Denied.
The only sensational story which
the local authorities have taken the
trouble to characterize as a canard
was a report from Bucharest giving
an account of an uprising in the
IL, {oo 1yir oY.,y for r l.
mania to concentrate troops in Bes-
sarabia. Soviet sources insist the
Rumanian troop movements are due
to unrest in that country and are
made to forestall anticipated troubles
in Bessarabia.
According to reports, the command
ant of Gelavsky prison, near Blu
charest, ordered soldiers to fire at the
political prisoners working In the
courtyard. Thirteen Bessarabians
convicted of participation in the Tar
tarbunar were among the number.
The action aroused great indignation
among their relatives and friends.
Several prisoners who were not
wounded in the fusillade were hand
cuffed and placed in dungeons and
obliged to stand for 10 days. Their
fellow prisoners have now been on a
hunger strike for eight days.
Further reports tell of a typhus cpl
demic which devastated Jassy prison,
and on account of a lack of an isola-
ton hospital the epidemic spread out
side the walls of the Jail. Seven hun
dred arrests were also reported made
at Ploesti, this being the entire at
tendance at a meeting of metal work
ers. Four hundred were released later
and the others held.

BOSTON WOOL MARKET

The wool market remains generally
quiet, though manufacturers show an
increased disposition to operate when
price concessions can be obtained.
Prices continue to ease little, espe-
cially for the best fine domestic wools.
All Australian and New Zealand
markets are closed for the holidays.
The attention of buyers here has,
therefore, been turned toward other
sources of supply, notably to the
River Plate, where considerable has
been done of late. AS result, prices,
especially in the Montevideo market.
show a moderate hardening. No fur
ther attempts to contract woods in the
west are noted, as the wool trade is
convinced that the present Is not. a
favorable time for such operations.
Though there is more or less uncer-
tainty as to the real situation, there
is still abroad a healthy optimism.

PHOENIX MUST HAVE
BEEN S0GGY CHRISTMAS

The following is press report Of
how Phoenix celebrated Christmas:
Phoenix, Dec. 26.-Merry (hicl
Chrismush was the jolly old word that
! rang out in the crispy frosty morning
/ air as scores of Christmas eve cele-
orators at Phoenix and adjacent Il.
sorts returned to their homes filled
with Christmas spirit and spirits.
1t was merry old night and
Christmas comes but once year
seemed to be the prevailing sentiment
evidenced by the merrymakers, as a
tour of the various dancing and dim
ing establishments clearly indicated.
The only shadow cast on the celebra-
ton was the fact that the bootlegging
fraternity had boosted the prices.
The fact, however, did not per-
ceptibly dim the gayety. Early I'M
the evening the merry throngs that
danced at the establishments in Phoe-
nix showed that they had caught the
Christmas spirit while the night wasI
still young. One party at local
dance hall wore a Christmas wreath
around his neck and held to the idea
that he was a Christmas tree. His
pretty companion agreed with him
pointing out the fact that he already
was illuminated. The same party was
seen later at resort beyond the city
limits still holding to his delusion
At one of the dine nd-dance es-g
adjustments outside the city thes
celebration continued until an early Z
hour. 1t was a happy scene. With
bottles Of cheer occupying prominent
positions on the tables the real spirit
of love that should prevail during the |
holiday season became more and more
marked. The affectionate attention
between couples grew as the evening
Wore on, as did the noise.
At a~dancing establishment outside t
the city limits the same noisy cele- t
bration continued through the early I
morning hours. Many couples who |
never suspected they could, dance the /
Charleston proved their ability to |
their own satisfaction. One man in T
sisted that he was John Phillip
Sousa and with ticker as baton
around the hall leading his
invisible band for hours. Everyone
thought everyone else was deaf. In
all the crowd was there but one sad
person, and he sat at his table weep
ing copious tears at the thought that
Santa Claus might miss some poor lit
lie kid some place on earth.

both as to prices and demand.
There are no changes to note in the
goods trade. In all departments there
is an evident purpose to cover only
actual sales of goods, this being noted
in the demand for yarns, tops and
wool. Dealers are looking forward
to an excellent overcoating season,
though there recently has not been
any particular demand for suitable
wools. Operations in Texas are at a
standstill, as buyers and growers are
apart as to values of the fall wools
In the far west there are still some
accumulations of old wool to be liq-
Undated. Prices to be paid are de-
pendent upon future developments in
the goods trade.
