AGED ARCH:B|SHOPS
FACES SED|T|0N
TRIAL IN MEXICO
Examine Statement Made
by Mora Del Rio to
N. Y. World.

bu Untteu Pre6S
MEXICO CITY. Aug. 12.-Arch-
bishop Mora Del Rio. the aged leader
of Catholicism in Mexico may be
SUMMONED before the legal authoH-
ties on a charge Of sedition in violat-
ing clause of the new religious
laws.
Secretary Of the Interior Alberto
Tejeda has ordered the attorney gen.
eral to examine a recent statement
given by the archbishop to the New
York World to determine whether,
the prelate's expressed sentiments
violated the prohibition against mem
bers of the clergy criticising acts of
the government or the laws Of Mex
leo. II the attorney general finds
the utterances to have been sedi-
tious. the ordinary procedure would
be to summon the archbishop for a
preliminary hearing.
Archbishop Mora Del Rio is thin.
white haired little man in his late
seventies. Upon him has fallen the
burden Of directing the church's
fight against laws which the govern
ment avows to have been designed
TO break the alleged political power
Of the church in Mexico.
Priests Executed
Meanwhile reports Of new isolated
disturbances are being revealed here.
Press dispatches state that the forces
Of General Mango in the state Of
Michoacan executed Ave priests at
the Hacienda Ia Cuava Sunday, after
they had been charged with melting
instruction and court-martialed.
Conflicts. however. are confined for
the most part to states Immediately
surrounding the states Of Mexico,
Michoacan and Jalisco. A United
Press special correspondent en- route
from Mexico City to Guatemala
found the small towns Of southern
Vera Cruz and the states Of Tahasco
and Chiapas little interested in the
controversy, although some effects
of the boycott were noted in the larg.
er towns.
New Fuel Added
New fuel has been added to the
controversy. however. by the an
nounced plan of the Mexican gov.
eminent TO take over church prop
critics held in. the names of in.
dividuals as well as by churches
themselves. On the ground that
the clergy is not permitted to possess
property. s.
The newspaper Graphico estimates
that the total value of church
properties held on Haciendas and
ranches and including chapels on
private properties and mines. is
about $500, 100000. The campaign
will touch all parts OF the republic.
Many priests are wealthy men,
having entered the clergy after IN
heriting fortunes. The $50 1000, 900

"Our problem is to lift agriculture
up and not pull industry down. ;"
Abrogation of tariff schedules would
do the latter, he asserted.
eff the farmer could be completely
organized for the purpose of CO.
operative marketing, the whole prob.
lem would be solved, for production
at least might be partially regulated
and products could be fed into the
market at such rate to hold up
the price, but at the present time
that is not possible"
Opposition to the McNary bill. is
not "a tenable position for an advo-
cate Of the doctrine Of protection"
Watson declared.
President Coolidge opposed the Nc
Nary bill.
"Our opponents say that If our
proposed legislation secures a better
price for the farmer it would tend
TO stimulate production and to re-
duce consumption. II that is true
Of the price increase secured under
legislation we proposed. 1t is true of
any price increase. for instance. one
secured by cooperative marketing.
Make Tariff Effective
THE real problem that confronts
the farmer is to make the protective
tariff effective in its application to
his products.
I'VE propose to do it by placing
at the disposal Of the. producers a
mechanism, with the assistance OF
which they can control the handling
and marketing Of crop SURPRISES,
thereby preventing price fluctuations
and securing. in domestic markets.
the price benefits OF the protective
tariff.
1.-The present tariff bill was writ
ten to meet the demands OF the
friends of agriculture. 1t is not
true that the farmer sells in an
open market and buys in protected
market, for 81 per cent Of all he uses
on his farm or in his house is on the
free list, while there is imposed the
highest rate on agricultural prod
ucts coming into this country from
other countries than was ever be-
fore levied by any tariff law in the
entire history OF the Nation.
There come in absolutely free Of
all tariff taxation. agricultural i'm.
plements of every kind. binder Irvine,
barbed wire, leather goods Of every
character, fertilizers. and many other
articles too numerous TO mention.

ricultural schedule was submitted
TO the heads OF the various agricul-
tural organizations in Washington

satisfactory. and but for those sec

more deplorable position today than

CLARK'S CAMP PAICN
GAINS MOMENTUM

In a statement issued from the
Headquarters of the Clark Campaign
committee this week, Raymond Dyas,
secretary of the committee declares
that reports reaching headquarters
from all parts of the state are prov
ing very encouraging to the Clark
forces. Clark sentiment, strong from
the day of Mr.. Clark's announced
candidacy, he states, is mounting
higher as the campaign progresses.
Republican party success" stated
Secretary Dyas, ''in this state al
ways hinges upon the election Of the
head of the ticket. 1t is an axiom of
politics that, with a minority party,
few if any of the party nominees can
win if the head of the ticket is not
elected.
GAS II. S. Corbett, chairman of the
republican state central committee,
wisely observes, the first requisite to
party success is to, nominate the
strongest candidate available. Chair
man Corbett believes E. S. Clark is
that candidate. Nor is he alone in
that opinion. Judge Clark announced
his candidacy. June 21. From that
date to July 18th he was the only
republican in the field. On the lat
ter date another candidate announced
himself. In the interim Judge Clark
received oral and written endorsements
from ten of the fourteen republican
county ellairmen. These party Off
cials are still heartily FOR Clark, be-
Iieving his nomination means party
success this fall.
Republican National Committee
man Thomas r. Campbell has en-
dorsed the candidacy of Judge Clark.
He likewise believes Clark can defeat
the democratic nominee, whoever he
may be, and says the time has come
when the party can, and doubtless
will, pick winner.

republican state central committee,

of The same committee, have endorsed

MEMORIES

When memory keeps me company,
And moves to smiles or tears
It always gently takes me back
Tos youths sweet, tender years.
When we're sweet sixteen, we're hap
piest,
'Tis there we know no care.
Oh, how we love to plan and build
Our castles in the air!
Tho few are strong enough to stand,
We learn in after years,
Those castles that our dreams have
built
Are washed away with tears.
For trusted friends will prove untrue,
And those we love forsake.
And then we counterfeit a smile
To hide the tears and ache.
We pay price to just pretend
That we are glad and gay.
We just can't let the old world know
We've stumbled long the way.
II we laugh the world laughs with US,
But we must weep alone:
For no one cares to nurse our grief,

Which reminds us of the one Bill
McClurken told about the fellow driv-
ing team of grizzly bears, with a
rattlesnake for whip and wildcat
on the seat beside him. He'd flick
the snake at the bears, cuff the Wild
cat, and make them all be good. He
drove up to store and demanded a
drink Asked what he wanted, he
said a gallon of carbolic acid. 1t was
handed out to him and he drank it,
wiped his lips on the back of his hand
and started out to where he'd left his
team.
"Say. where are you FROM" the
bartender asked.
"Wall, did live in Texas" he said,
"but they run me out of there cause
/ was a sissy"
Honest, though, there are some
mighty lovely, sweet people come
from Texas. We'd a lot rather come
from there than from Ohio.

Judge Clark. All these party Off

as are the numerous other party

turally believe his nomination is es-
sential to republican victory in the
