CTS have denied any conneetisl with or counterance :. of armed revolution and have repudiated op- ! position except of peaceful charac-
 ter to the religious laws
 The two years of priestless Cath
 ollie churches have seen the ex- pulsion from Mexico of all Catho- lie archbishops and bishops who could be found They were c..arg- ed with seditious activities. which they denied. Two of them died in exile, in San Antonio They were Archbishop Jose Mora del Rio of Mexico City and Bishop Ignacio Valdespino of Aguascalientes. During these two years there have been frequent arrests of priests, nuns, and laymen charged with violation of religious laws by conducting services in private homes or charged with plotting against the government In most cases they have been punished only by fines.
 There have been, during this period, instances of persons who posed as government detectives or secret police extorting money from Catholics by threatening them
 with arrest unless they paid.
 Where the fact became known such imposters were arrested.
 In November 1927, a Catholic priest and three laymen were exc cuted by a firing squad in Mexico City after an unsuccessful bomb attempt to assassinate General Obregon had been made, for which the police declared these four were responsible.
 The recent murder of General Obregon has been declared by President Gales to have been caused by religious fanaticism. E Meanwhile, during a considerable part of these troubled two years, sub-surface efforts have been un- der way to effect not a final set |tlement of the controversy or a |formal agreement ending all diff ferences, but to bring about an ad- |justment. modus vivendi, by which priests could resume their church services and the acute as- poets of the controversy subside, leaving details for gradual solu- !tion in the future. Such efforts have not ceased.

Sisters Declare City Offers No Room for
 Dreams

New York City.-Out of child hood dreams come the adult ambi- tior and careers that make the world move on-that make evolu- tion in music, art, drama, litera- ture and science-and often in vention.
 Children of the city are left with no achievement, no goal to dream of. Everything has hap pened. So much of the superlative in human effort is seen about them, that the incentive to create IS taken away.
 Mary Lee, singer, of the team of Lee Sisters, backs up this theory with the assertion that most successful people of today come from the country.
 Surveys Leaders
 "This is especially true of the stage and music world" declares Miss Lee, who with her sister Billie, halls from Grand Island, Nebraska.
 "A survey of the leaders today in practically every profession would, I am sure. show that they spent their early lives in the coun. try"

 My Ohio Home"
 "This year we are singing ot My Ohio Home,' by Gus Kahn and Walter Donaldson. The lyrics of which were inspired by a boy from a small Ohio town, whom Gus Kahn found stranded by the lake front in Chicago. The young ster had come on from his home town,' expecting to work in the stockyards but didn't get the job and was homeless and friendless. Mir. Kahn saw him in passing and stopped to talk. The boys chief lament was for My Ohio Home All his life he had been picturing the big city. Now just as ardentlv he was picturing his Ohio home,
 Tt is this longing for and abil- ity to dream that MT. Kahn caught and put in the lyrics which have made this song such sue cess.
 Personally, I am for starting all children off in the country. If l had my way, there would be no "itv rhildran."
