Often both sides are really to blame-the par

finding conclusive means of convincing their elders

The children's financial dependence hampers
them greatly and parents are often so tactless as
to use it as a rod to brandish over their heads.

As a parent you should realize these inner struggles that your
son or daughter may be undergoing. They explain a lot-their mood

As a son or daughter you should also be careful not to be priggist
or ruthless in your attitude. Evaluate the standards Of your own init
mates by all means and compare them with the world at large. but do
not do it hastily or cynicaly.
You need never lose sight Of the great good your parents mean

yourself from repeating the mistakes they may have made.
Parents and children should get together on this problem OF
breaking away from the home.

MEXICO CITY, July 24.-tPl-
Jose De Leon Toral, who shot to
death Gen. Alvaro Obregon. was
himself an irresponsible victim Of
superior intellects. IN the viewpoint
Of the agrarian political body. For
that reason, said Aurelio Manrique,
spokesman for the party. his death
il not demanded by that element.
"We regard Obregon's assassin as
parsonage who was controlled by
superior outside forces" said Man
rique today. "We do not demand his
death. but we do demand justice and
we believe this can be achieved most
quickly by removal from the govern
ment of tho labor leaders whose an
ti-Obregon activities created the at
mosphere for the mad act or tha
assassin. The influence welded by
those labor leaders must be wiped
out Of Mexican public affairs"
The statement was given in expla-
nation Of the part which the agra
rians took last night in action by che
union of revolutionary parties which
decided to eliminate all members of
the labor party from the legislative
as well as the executive departments
OF the government. This action was
a sequel to the designations of Luis
Morones, minister Of labor, and two
minor government officials who we're
members of the labor party.
The union has also opened fire on
