Important Information
Is Revealed

MEKTC0 CITY, Aug 6The
police department here announced
today that 81 persons, including two
catholic priests had been arrested
in connection with the assassination
of president-elect Obregon.
Although the police would not
give detailed information they inti-
mated that the investigation is ex-
pected to reveal information as to
the real motive for the assassina-
ton.
With the surrender of Carlos
Castro, who had been sought as the
aide of Toral, further information
has been obtained which will lead to
new developments, it was announced.
MEXICO CITY, Aug. 8.-The
statement of the Roman Catholic
Church accusing President Gales
as being the instigator of the crime
is being received here as an indica-
tion that the clergy is in position
which, from their point of view, re-
quires strenuous efforts to turn sus-
picion in another direction than their
own. The statement of the church
authorities does not deny that those
directly implicated in the crime are
directly connected with the Mexican
clergy.

MASS MURDERS
Threaten Massacre Of

PEKING, Aug. 8.-While the
members of the Executive Commit
tee of the Koumintang are quarrel
ing among themselves and unable
to hold their scheduled session at
Marking, the Marking government
has issued statement warning all
opponents of the Nanking regime
agaist any criticism or action
against the Koumintang dictator
ship.
This statement in the face of
strikes in Shanghai, the activities of
the peasant army in the south and
the split within the hanging ranks
is construed here as an attempt to
retain the Nanking regime by open
dictatorship and terroristic meth
DDS.
"In order to bring the republic to
maturity" the statement says, "the
Koumintang does not tolerate the
existence of an opposition" In view
of the wholesale execution of work
ing class leaders and Communists
the statement can be taken as an
avowal of continued methods of ter
ror against workers and peasants
of China. '
The policy of the Marking regime
is necessitated, many observers
point out. if it wishes to consolidate
its financial and economic forces
and gain recognition from the i'm

that an unrestrained speed-up may
be introduced in the mills.

ity which will result to tie textile
bosses, Batty appealed to them and
their agents to increase efficiency
