MEXICO CITY, February 5.-Thou-
sands of Mexicans and foreigners who
we're married in Mexico during the five
year period beginning in 1913 Sunday
found themselves in a perplexing situa-
ton as the result of the decision of the
Supreme Court Saturday declaring such
marriages invalid. The decision has
created a sensation here.
1t was based on decree by the late
President Carranza declaring all civil
acts under the governments of Vic
toriano Huerta, Emiliano Zapata and
the so-called conventionist governments
illegal because these governments were
unconstitutional. The court upheld this
edict.
Mrs. Julian Rosledo had appealed to
the Supreme Court from decision of
the court of Merida, Yucatan. annuling
her marriage in 1918, when Huerta was
President. The Carranza decree also
declared invalid marriage contracted in
the States of OaXaca and Yucatan I'M
der neutral governments during the
period in which Huerta and zapata and
the conventionists held sway here.
