MEXICO TO ASK
SLAYER'S LIFE,
PRISON FOR NUN
Charge Mother Superior Is
intellectual Author
of Crime.
BY G. F. FINE
United Press staff Correspondent

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 3.-MeXico
will demand the life of Jose de
Leon ToraI for the assassination of
General Alvaro Obregon and will
seek to inprison Mother Superior
Conception for twenty years as the
intellectual author" of that crime.
Correa Nieto, the prosecutor, made
that announcement today, pointing
out that twenty years imprisonment
was the most severe punishment
that could be melted out to a woman
in the Republic.
Correa Nieto, the prosecutor,
made that announcement today
pointin govt that twenty years i'm
priSonment was the most severe
punishment that could be melted
out to a woman in the Republic.
The announcement came after
Toral had been brought to face the
nun and had insisted she suggested
the deaths of General Obregon and
Plutarco Gales as benefit to the
nation.
Previously at the hearing for those
still under arrest-Toral, the nun,
Maria Altamira and Jorge Gallardo
the Mother Superior said she might
"unconsciously" have induced him to
commit the crime.
She added she did not believe he
had sufficient courage to take q
life"
Nieto said he had discovered that
Mother Superior Conception and
other nuns had been branded on
the breast with the insignia "IHS."
This was taken to be the legend in
Hoe Signo, and Nieto said he would
order an examination of Toral and
the others to find if they had been
similarly branded.
Arguments in the case will begin
today. They probably will last for
six days after which the trial proper
will start before a jury of nine.
Should Toral be found guilty his
only plea for clemency will be to
the president.
1t was considered probable that
Torals attorneys would make an
insanity defense. This came
through request Thursday for a
physical and mental examination of
the defendant. Torals father in a
recent interview said that his son
had suffered early illnesses that
might have made him suffer
pathological weaknesses and that

ORDER WIRES DOWN
Five Miles of insult Line Is
Too Close to Road.

State Highway Director John D.
williams today ordered the North
ern Indiana Power Company, an
insult utility, to remove five miles
of electric power line which had
been placed too close to State
Highway 55, near Crown Point, Ind.
Williams said the company had
asked permission to violate the reg
ulation prohibiting poles within "a
feet of the center of a State high
way, which was refused. The COM
pany proceeded to put up the line,
anyway, some poles being in the
shoulder of the highway, Williams
said.
The offending line is between
Crown Point and the intersection of
Rd. 80 with Rd. SIS.
