BOTH SIDES IN
RELIGIOUS WAR
DEFEND RIGHTS
(By Dispatch A. p. wire)

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 6.-Both sides
to the religious question in Mexico, the
efforts of would-be peace intermed-
iaries having failed, apparently are
prepared for an indefinite endurance
contest.
The propaganda campaign is being
conducted, but it is much more ap-
parent on the side of the government
supporters, who, under the leadership
Of the regional confederation of labor
and political groups, are touring the
nation, addressing the people and isr
suing literature with the object of
convincing the men and women of the
country that the governments attitude
is the proper one.
The newspapers are extremely eau
tious They do not touch on the re-
ligious situation editoria1ly, and print
only meagre news items, the proprie-
tors fearing arrest or closure Of their
plants.
Catholic leaders have announced that
they would not have a representation
tonight at the Mexico City theatre
when a government supporter talked
on the religious question. Heretofore
these debates have been drawing great
crowds, government officials and lead
ing Catholics presenting their respec-
tive arguments, and the government
broadcasting the speeches Of both sides.
1t is understood that the decision of
the Catholic leaders not to debate to-
night was taken because Of a belief
that the debates might lead to clashes.
Government representatives spoke,
nevertheless, the debate" becoming
merely a presentation of the govern
ments side.

DES MONIES, Aug. 6.-David W.

as their candidate for the unexpired
term of Senator Albert B. Cummins,
who died a week ago today.
Stewart received S24 votes on the

it was apparent that the other candi-
dates could gain little by further
balloting and followed a swing OF
half dozen counties to his camp,
the counties ceasing their support OF
all other candidates to- flock to the
Stewart banner. In a short speech
following announcement of his nomt-
nation, Stewart expressed gratifica-
tion for the honor and told the dele
gates he felt an humble successor
to Senator Cummins, "the greatest
statesman Iowa has ever produced.
He said he believed the party was
the best instrument for the promo
tion of American ideals and would
support them if elected in November.
Through the republican party, ne
predicted, success would crown a
united effort for farm relief.
The convention then adopted a
resolution endorsing the party plat
form adopted at the regular conven-
ton two weeks ago and adjourned.

U. S. SENDS NEW
NOTE TO MEXICO
AS TO OIL L AW

WASHINGTON Aug .6-State de-
partment officials refused today to
comment on the most recent communi-
cation sent to Mexico City in connec-
tion with the prolonged diplomatic dis
cussion of the new Mexican petroleum
and land laws 1t had been expected
for some time, however, that the de-
partment would forward such a COM
-muncation to be presented at the Mex
lean foreign office by Ambassador
Sheffield before he leaves on his an
nual vacation.
The last communications with the
Mexican government in relation to
land and petroleum laws as they affect
the rights of American citizens in Mex
leo were exchanged nearly four months
ago. At that time it was indicated
that the discussion had resulted in a
relatively satisfactory understanding
as to the major points involved, but
there remained a few minor questions
to be threshed out.
Since then the Mexican government
has promulgated a decree supplement
ing the regulations originally put out
for the enforcement of the new oil law.
Presumably, the American point OF
view with regard to it is included IN
the communication Ambassador Shelf
field has presented to the foreign Of
flee. 1t was made clear at the depart
ment that the new note has nothing to
do with the religious crisis in Mexico
and is confined strictly to discussion
of American rights which are or might
be ieopardized by the petroleum and
land laws,
