BY the Associated Press.
MEXICO CITY, December 14.-The
new federal penal code, aboliShing the
death sentence and the jury system. and
providing other radical reforms, will be-
come effective tomorrow in the federal
district and the territories.
The code was drawn up and promul-
gated under special powers granted by
Congress to provisional President Portes
Gill Because the constitution gives the
states autonomy in such matters, the
code does not apply to them unless they
choose to substitute it for the existing
state laws.
The code stipulates that there shall
be no punishment for the Staying of a
mate caught in an act involving the
slayer'S honor, or for the Staying OF the
other party to the act, so long as the
slayer has not before taken a life for
similar reason. It allows a father to
slay a daughter apprehended in an act
of dishonor and her seducer also.

his hunger or that of those depending
upon him is free from punishment I'M

Individual aid to the progress of ayia :

people to homer the accomplishment
of Col. Charles A. Llndbergh, William
p. MacCracken, Assistant Secretary OF
Commerce for AeronauticS, declared in
an address over the National Broad
casting Co. hook-up last night. Sec
rotary MacCracken spoke on a special
program concentrating the second an
niversary of Lindberghs flight from
New York to Paris
Since Col Lindbergh's flight, aviation
has enjoyed a progress greater than
has taken place in the history of any
industry, and the impetus is far from
spent, MacCracken declared.
How best can we discharge our OBJ
legation to Col. Lindbergh?" he asked.
Not by reiterating the name Lind
bergh! not by shouts and similar DEM
onStrationS and certainly not by intrud-
ing upon his privacy, impelling as our
desires may be.
Let each one of us analyze his or
her own situation for the purpose Of
determining how he or she may best
serve the advancement of civil aviation.
We can honor this great accomplish
ment in many ways. by the use of air
mail stamps. by helping the airmark

ger or pilot. by building plane, or by
rendering any of the myriad services
necessary to ayiation'S progress"
