 to Worship Is Abridged

Washington, May 2S I4) - In sisting that the Gales government is not attempting to interfere with Mexican religious liberty, Dr. An- dres Osuna, former governor of TamaUipas. Mexico, told the an nual meeting of the American Bap- list Home Mission society here to- day that it is merely endeavoring 10 enforce existing laws to curb po- litical activities of any church.
 He said that the state church had failed to educate the Mexican people and had brought ranking ecclcslastics from Spain so as 10 keep the most rigid submission 10 Spain and to come, no matter if the colonial clergy were intelligent, well educated and well qualified to fill such positions"
 This, Dr. Osuna said, created a division within the clergy itself with the higher European clergy ranged against the native clergy, who were always ready to work for the uplift of the people. The church, he contendod, had a po- litical program.

AMERICAN WOMEN
 ARE NOT WANTED
European Suffrage Alliance
 Votes Against Admission

Paris, May 2S tP - It is authori- tatively learned that the joint board of international officers of the international woman suffrage alliance and the presidents of the affiliated societies voted this morn ing not to admit the national wom- ans party of America to member ship in the alliance.
 The alliance, meeting in con- gress Monday, will vote on the matter as the first business of its session, and there was speculation today whether it would follow the recommendation of the board. The league of women voters, a member of the alliance, objects to admis- sion of the national woman's party on the ground that that organiza- ton and the league "are opposed to each other in policy and politi- cal action"
 The controversy over admission to the alliance is not confined only to the American women but also has spread to British organizations. This morning petitions were intro- duced to the board of presidents recommending that membership should not be granted to the na- tional union of women teachers and the league church militant, both of Great Britain. The regular British delegates to the congress offered the petition.
 Doris Stevens, leader of tho women's party group Of America, today denied a rumor that her group would start rival congress if 1t were not admitted to the al- liance.
