Bailey told the justice he sells

buy 1t to throw away.
That it was salt and pepper that
was thrown into the doorway for
nine consecutive nights was estab-
lished by Kitzmiller's mother. who
went to the trouble to sweep up
some of the mixture for exhibition
in court.
The Kitzmillers said they secreted

SYLVIA GAINES
By international News SERVICE

President Gales has opened
the way for a possible future
settlement Of the religious con-
troversy, by his letter to the
episcopate declaring that he
will not intervene with their
efforts to secure legislative re-
form of religious laws, it is
beliet here ted
willing to Come Half Way
The right to work in the legis-
lature for such reforms was one
of the requests made by the
Catholic Episcopate in its recent
letter to the President, and his
reply would seem to indicate his
willingness to meet the episco-
pate half way on all matters ex-
eept the suspension of the exist
ing laws.
Not To Eyade Discussions
President Gales promises the epis-
copate a fair chance to attempt leg
isIative reform, stating; II declare
my intention of complying with my
duty as a ruler and will not hinder
your legal resources to amendment
OF the laws and at the same time
I point out that it is my intention
not to eyade discussion of these
matters in congress.
The episcopate has not yet Off
cialIy disclosed its view OF the presi-
dents letter but it is semi-officially
stated that the episcopate finds en-
couraegment in the letter and holds
that it is an hope that may event
ually light the way TO peace.
President Gales himself issued
this letter to the press. reading it
over carefully to the reporters and
stressing his contentious that he
was following his Interpretation Of
the laws to the utmost.
The Presidents letter in some CIR
c1es was regarded as tantamount
to a challenge to the episcopate TO
lay the matter before the legis-
lature and perhaps submit it to a
future election.
The President said that Of those
in authority he was the person
least fitted to support or initiate
q revision of the governments re-
1igious regulations, as the regula-
tons, particularly those of which
the bishops complained, were Gin
perfect accord" with his philosopn-
ical and political convictions.
President Gales denied that he
had charged the episcopate with re-
belllOn because Of the suspension
OF religious services in the Catholic
churches throughout Mexico. assert
ing that such action was entirely
within the professional rights Of
the church leaders.
