MEXICO CITY, November 19.-Gen.
Antonio Villareal, barred from Mexico,
is announced by the Anti-Re-electionis
party to have slipped across the border
and thus qualified for the presidential
election next year
The law requires that candidates for
the presidency be in national territory
at least one year before the election.
The time limit expired on Friday. Gen.
Villareal. who had been refused pernis-
sion to return, was stated by Vito AleS-
sion Robles, president of the Anti
Re-electioniSt party, to have crossed the
border at Laredo some days ago. He is
still in Mexico and appeared before a
notary public at Monterey to obtain
certification of the fact that he was
there before the time limit expired.
Gen. Villareal was deported by the
Gales government because of partici-
patton in the Serrano rebellion of last
year. He is a former minister of agri-
culture and at one time was military
commander of Nuevo Laredo.
After his nomination by group OF
Anti ti-Re-electioniStS he sought permiS-
siol4 to return to Mexico This was de-
MED by President-designate Emilio
Portes Gil, acting as minister of in
terror.
Robles also announced that a con-
vention of the Anti i-Re-electionist party
would be held early in December to
nominate candidate. The choice lies
between Jose Vasconcelos, who has al
ready been selected by the party of
revolutionary principles. and Gen. VIII
lareal.
If Gen. Villareal succeeds in obtain
ing the presidential nomination he will
be the only military man of the three
candidates in the field. Vasconcelos is
a lawyer, as is Aaron Saenz, who re-
signed as governor of Nuevo Leon some
time ago to run for the presidency.
The election will be held on the third
Sunday of November, 1929, and Portes
Gil will conclude his term as provisional
president at the end of that month.
