BOYCOTT IS ONLY
HOPE OF Church

Do Not Believe Mexican Con-

on Petition.

bu CHtt6U fTCSS
MEXICO CITY, Sept. II. -
Catholic observers here are con-
fident that the congress will give
hearing to the petition of the
episcopate for the revocation or
modification of the religious law
which became effective Aug. /.
They are hopeful, they Say. be-
cause they consider the demands
made upon the congress as the most
moderate possible under the circum-
stances.
But even the officials Of the
hierarchy are not sanguine that the
congress will act favorably on the
petition unless the Catholic boycott
greatly intensifies the economic de-
preston already serious problem
for the government. Bishop Diaz, as
spokesman for the episcopate ex-
poets little from the congress and
declares the boycott will continue
until the church has attained its
ends.
Meanwhile the episcopate Is COM
pleting it's preparations for sending
to the Congress a memorial signed
by prominent Catholics through
out the country in which the con-
gress will be requested to note that
the majority of the voters are
opposed to the existing religious
laws.
Bishop Diaz expects more than a
million signatures on the memorial
before 1t is presented.
Preparations are also being made
for public religious demonstrations
all over the country. Instructions
are being sent all the priests to pre-
pare the people for simultaneous
manifestations through the land.
They are especially directed to en-
phasize the necessity for strict OBJ
servance Of order in order that no
bloodshed may result from possible
clashes with the authorities.
