BUSINESS MEN
OF MEXICO ARE
ALARMED
(By Dispatch A. P. wire)

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 2-The Mexican
business world, already on pins and
needles, fears congressional enactment
of a new labor law which, some indus
trial and commercial leaders say, may
handicap the country's commerce and
industry severely.
The new session of congress, which
began last night and continues to De-
cember 81, is expected again to con-
slider the labor bill, which passed the
chamber of deputies last year and was
favorably received in the senate, but
died on the calendar in the closing
days of the session.
The bill, demanded by organized IA
Dor and viewed sympathetically by the
government, e qui res employers to
share profits with employees and pre-
scribes in great detail Workmen's bene-
fits required by employers.
Official reports were made to the
United States government last year
that the measure would be more harm
full to American business interests in
Mexico than the alien land and. pc
troleum laws
Business in Mexico was bad before
the religious crisis began and it has
been affected further by the economic
boycott fostered in opposition to the
governments religious regulations. If,
in addition, the new labor law is en-
acted and proves to be as great ham
dicap to business as some fear, the sit
uation will be exceedingly serious.
Labor leaders deny the proposed law
will be unjustly burdensome.
Some of it's most important prov!-
sions
Employers must share profits with
employees or pay them fixed bonus
Employees committee are empowered
to examine employers books and fix
the amount of profits to be divided
with workmen
Employers must pay minimum wages
the amounts to be determined by
workmens committees.
Eighty per cent of the employees OF
every concern must be Mexican citi-
zens. The eight hour working day
with overtime payments is required.
Workmen's compensation for injuries
is provided for.
Employers are required by the bill to
deposit with the government such sums
as the president may require to guar
antee the employers fulfillment of its
terms

GRAND JURY OF
Los ANGELES IS
DISMISSED BY
JUDGE A. KEETCH
Certain Acts of Body Con-
stitute More Than Con-
tempt, He Alleges.
M'PHERSON CASE TALK
Refers to Alleged Failure of
Grand Jurors to Keep
Matters Secret.
lBy Dispatch A. P. Wirel

LOS ANGELES. Calf, Sept. 2. = Su-
perior Judge Arthur Keetch today dis
missed the county grand jury declar-
ing that certain acts of that body con-
stituted something more than contempt
and an offense under the penal code.
During the investigation of the
Aimee Semple Mcpherson case, the
grand jury came in for a scoring at
the hands of Judge Keetch, who as
presiding judge of the criminal depart
ment has charge of the jury. At that
time, Judge Keetch declared that ac-
tion of some members of the jury in
publicly commencing county officials
laid the body open to belief on the
part of the public that politics" had a
part in their activity. That such an
inference could be drawn, Judge
Keetch told them, was intolerable.
In dismissing the body, Judge Keetch
said he was acquainted with the fact
that your sessions from time to time
have been marked by considerable dis
cord and lack of harmony"
Judge Keetch referred to alleged
failure on the part of some members
of the jury to keep matters pending
before them secret and called attention
to the disappearance during the Nc
Pherson case of certain purported evl-
dence gathered by county investigators.
This consisted of two slips Of paper
containing a grocery list picked up
near cottage at Carmel, Calf, which
figured in the Mcpherson investigation.
Tho handwriting was said to resemble
that of Mrs Mcpherson, although the
evangelist declared she was not the
woman known as Miss X' who occu-
pied the cottage with Kenneth G. Or
miston, radio man, just after Mrs. Nc
Pherson disappeared from the beach
near here.
