work with the performance of the an

formance OF CLANCY as "Quasimodo.
the deformed bell ringer of the cathe-
dral OF Notre Dame. to which the star
gives a vivid impersonation.
The production is declared to be
cinemagraphically perfect. The sets
which include representations Of the
Cathedral Of Notre Dame, the Court
of Miracles, Place de Parvis. Palais du
Justice, the Bastile and many streets
of the period of Louis XI. are genuine
rcplicas of the historic French city.

NICARAGUA VOTE

U. S. Choice to Win as
Others Withdraw

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, July rs.
The Conservative Party failed to-
day to propose it's candidate for
president following a similar failure
during the two day conference ended
yesterday.
Carlos Cuadra Pasos, for some
time considered as the possible can
didate, has withdrawn due to the re-
fusal of Chamorro, the Conservative
leader, to support his candidacy.
Due to the fact that the Conserva-
tives announced their intentions of
refraining from voting in the com
ing elections if they could not choose
candidate, the field is practically
left open to the liberal" candidate
Moncada.
Since the Moncada candidacy has
been approved by the United States
he is considered to be the United
States choice, and the elections are
looked upon as farce.

Terrorism of Workers May Follow 1leds
REVOLT SERVES
AS PRETEXT FOR
STRINGENT LAW
Prisoners from Revolt
To Be First Victims

LISBON, Portugal, July 25.-A
punitive measure which when enact
ed will enable the present admins
tration to begin "a systematic ter
ron against the Portuguese working
class was passed by the council of
ministers yesterday.
Using as a pretext the recent
armed uprising of the Seventeenth
Regiment and other sections of the
army cooperating with armed civil
ians, the council Of ministers has
succeeded in passing law which
will give them dictatorial powers in
crushing any further disturbances
in the country.
While the 240 soldier and civilian
prisoners from the late revolt are
to be the first to feel the stringency
of the new measure, the growing
discomfort among the Portuguese
workers is believed to have been a
dominating factor in securing the
passage of the measure.
Leaders among the Portuguese
workers are pointing to the effec-
tiveness with which the new mea-
sure may be used in crushing strikes
and demonstrations and point out
the series of arrests which have
already taken place as indication of
what Interpretation the govern
ment will place upon the act.

FRENCH POLICE
ARREST 4 MORE
FOR ALFONSO
Workers Seized At
SPANS Request

PARIS, July z5.-Continuing their
collaboration with the Spanish au-
thorities in running down alleged
participants in a plot against the
life of King Alfonso, Paris police
yesterday arrested four more work
ers at Narbonne, according to re-
ports from that city.
The victims, three men and a
woman, were seized in what is be-
lieved to be a systematic and psr-
sistent police campaign, involving
the workers of the two countries.
The police claim to have extorted
from their victims the names of aids
and the part the prisoners were to
have played in the alleged attack on
the kings life, and an extended
search has begun for the individu-
ais implicated.
House to house search was being
carried on yesterday in the Paris
working class districts by the police,
but had remained fruitless up to a
late hour yesterday.
Meanwhile reports from Spain,
reaching this city by way of Bor-
deaux, state that the Spanish police
are carrying on extended raids
throughout the country, although
the severe censorship makes infor-
nation from Spain extremely nre-
liable.

of the governments effort to force
the men to return to work.
Attempts of the British author
tiles to break the strike by force
have so far failed and leaders of the

ment attempted to import into the
