MEXICO IS QUIET
after EXECUTION
OF AGENTS OF U. S.
Gomez Fleeing for Fear
of His Life
BULLETIN

BULLETIN
Ell PASO, Oct. General
Gomez, former candidate for presi-
dent of Mexico, who was a leading
figure in the abortive insurrection,
is reported to have been captured
at Fort Peroto, near Vera Cruz,
while fleeing toward the coast. He
will be court-martialed and sum-
marily executed by a firing squad.
General Agaoito Lastra was exc
cuted at Torreon and General Ar
turo Lassa, clerical and oil general
trying to lead bandit attacks against
the government, has been shot at
Pachuca. The government is COM
pletely victorious in all former CEN
ters of disturbance and the conspira-
tors are fleeing from their usual
haunts.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 5. (FP).-
Dispatches received at the State De-
partment confirm the early press re-
ports, that the Serrano-Gomez revolt
in Mexico, while using the argument
that Obregon had no right to run for
reelection to the presidency, is in
fact an uprising of military leaders
rather than of masses of the people.
Back of the revolt, the Mexican
government sympathizers assert, is
the enmity of the Catholic politicians
toward President Gales, and the
anger of the American oil operators
who fear that the policy of Ambas-
sador Morrow, newly appointed to
Mexico, will be more friendly to the
Mexican administration.
1t is thought in Washington that
the rising was hastened by the news
that Morrow would represent the
United States at Mexico City.

GOV ERDALE, Pa, Oct. 5 =
The preliminary injunction against
le United Mine Workers of America
allowing evictions and barring all
picketing granted to the Pittsburgh
Terminal Coal Company by Judge F.
P. Schoonmaker of the Federal court
brings the struggle of the locked out
miners in Western Pennsylvania to a
new and more bitter stage. 1t legal
ICES machine-gun coal mining and
gives full license to the terroristic
methods that the coal operators are
employing in their attempts to smash
the union and establish the open shop
in District 5.
The Pittsburgh Terminal Coal Com
pany has already tried violence of
every description in it's attack on the
men locked out when they refused to
accept a 81 a day wage-cut at the
expiration Of the Jacksonville agree
ment April last. In addition to the
use of the Coal and Iron police,
deputies and state troopers to break
up the picket lines and terrorize the
mining camps, the Pittsburgh Ter
minal Company has tried out new
ways of carrying on its fight against
the miners-menacing the locked out
men and their families with the
danger of epidemic by cutting off the
water supply, tearing the roofs off
the houses, cutting off the lights,
breaking into houses and carrying off
the furniture.

The largest mining town belonging
to the Pittsburgh Terminal Coal Com
pany is Coverdale, lying out in the

an article entitled: "Arise, revolu-
tionary masses, and unite together to
overthrow Chang Kai-shek." Some
paragraphs from this article follow:
"Chiang Kai-shek who proclaims
himself the genuine follower Of the
President has proved himself counter
revolutionary. His reactionary move
ments in the past are too numerous
to give an exhaustive account.
Immediately after he left the
Whampoa Academy, he colluded with

helped the Sunyatsenism Association
to disturbance, causing the Chung
Shan cruiser incident on March goth,
last year, and the departure of Com
rade Wang Ching-wei, who is the
only successor of the President and
who is most respected by the revo-
lutionary masses. He prevented also
the Central Kuomintang and the Ma
tionalist Government to remove to
Hupeh, monopolizing the Party af-
fairs, violating the Party regulations,
destroying the Party organization,
frustrating the Party discipline, and
practising dictatorship.

"He secretly employed men to de-
