RELIGIOUS FEUD FAR FROM ENDED
Situation in Mexico, Thought
 Clearing, Again GlOuded

Mexico City, Aug. 24 P}-The controversy between the govern ment and the Catholic church over the execution of the religious pro- visions of the constitution again is at a stalemate.
 Just as it had been anticipated that peace might follow the con- ference between President Gales and Bishop Diaz, secretary of the episcopate. and Archbishop Leo- poldo Ruiz Flores of Michaocan, which was declared by the pre- lates to have been truly satisfac- tory" comes the unanimous deci- sion of the episcopate not to re- sume church services for the time being.
 Meanwhile the economic boycott will remain in force and the church leaders vii continue to formulate plans for bringing the religious question before congress in the hope of securing an amendment to the constitution which will prove satisfactory to the church.
 No date has been set for fur ther conference between the pre- lates and President Gales, and there seems some uncertainty pre- valent as to whether they again will come together to talk matters over.
 It is the opinion of the episco- pate that the assertion of President Gales that the registration of priests was only an administrative requirement" does not coincide with a statement alleged to have been made by him and printed in one of the newspapers today. If the priests return to the temples they must do so subject to the laws" this statement said.
 This is regarded by the church authorities as leaving the contro-

versy where 1t was before, because the church's constant and unquali- fled position has been that it can- not accept these laws. In a formal statement on the situation the episcopate says:
 "The situation continues the same as before the conference with President Gales. Services will not be resumed because 1t is necessary not only to discover a method to give instructions to priests without sacrificing the rights of the church but also to discover how to obvi- ate the destruction of liberty of conscience by these laws pending their amendment or repeal through congress. Methods for taking this question to the chamber are being discussed"
 Later the episcopate issped an- other communication, which some what revised it's first statement. Concerning instructions to priests, the latter communication says 1t is necessary not only to discover if it is possible to obtain a certain derogation of all laws injuring lib- erty of conscience.
 Monsignor Diaz says the state- ment given out by the episcopate Saturday night, saying that the conference between president Cal les and ,the prelates at Chapulte- pee palace, was truly satisfac- tory" had previously been sub mitted to the president and ap- proved by him and that the pres ident inserted the verbiage to the effect that the governments regis- tration requirement for priests was merely administrative measure.

Was Long III

Mexico City, Aug. "A Pl-The for mer Mrs. Eleanor B. Phillip of Mil waukee, who married John F. How ard, a wealthy mayonnaise manu- facturer of Haverhil, Mass, after Mir. Howard had obtained divorce fro minis wife in Massachusetts, has died after a long illness in the American hosiptal here. Death is said to have been due to pneumonia and spinal meningitis.
 The marriage of Mrs. Phillip and Howard was the motif for much dis sension and legal activities on the part of Towards two sons. Albert Howard of Haverhill and John How ard of Los Angeles, and against the two sons by the father. The trouble between the Towards began last spring when the two sons came to Mexico and demanded that the father make fair settlement from his estate upon their mother.
 They alleged perjury and bigamy in connection with the elder How ards divorce and re-marrlage and had him arrested. In retaliation the father accused the sons of assault and they were taken into custody All parties to the controversy later were released in bail and the court at Cuernavaca, where the elder Howard secured his divorce and where he was placed in jail, finally dismissed the charges against him, declaring there was not sufficient evidence to justify holding him for trial.
 It is not the purpose of the elder Mir. Howard to return to the United States at present. His sons, who are still in Mexico, asserted today that they did not expect the death of their fathers second wife would have any effect on their efforts tc secure what they consider proper financial settlement for their mother from the estate of the father which has been estimated to be val ued at around a million dollars.
