More Spanish Women
Taking Up Mems Work

SPANS women are determined not to
lag behind in their conquest of rights,
nor in the deeds by which they show
their equality with man! Under Gen.
Primo de Riveras rule, which favors
feminism woman students at the uni
versities are more numerous than ever
future lawyers, doctors. dentists, phar-
macists.
In the realm of sport there are such
doughty champions as Lii Alvarez,
rival of Suzanne Lenglen for tennis
laurels. There are girls also who play
a strenuous game in 150-foot courts,
keeping UP five-minute rallies which
entail terrific burst of energy. Primo
de Rivera is often spectator at these
girl matches.
But now there is also girl locomo-
tive engineer, daughter of Count Ca
dagua, who aspires to drive the giant
express engines on the Norte line over
the SierraS to the French frontier.
Two other aristocrats are titled en-
CINE drivers-the Duke of Saragossa
and Count G. de Brabante. The former
often drives the train when the Spanish
royal family travels. But neither prob
ably ever dreamed they would find a
rival on the footboard among their
dance partners. Spain Is coming to the
fore!

Nuevo Leon and Guanajuato and from
the east through Vera Cruz. All of the
commanders on both sides of the pres

over the same ground on which they
are now deployed. The military men of
Mexico have had plenty of campaign

A CROSS most of the southern

II spread three states, rugged,

pect, where lean cattle search
out the sparse pasturage. Strong men
are born and live in this rough country,
quick to war. They fight for friendship,
for spoilS, for personal enmity and a
few for ideals. These men of the North
have ruled Mexico for two decades.
The states are Sonora, Chihuahua
and Coahuila. They have given Mexico
Madero, Carranza, Obregon, Gales, De
la Huerta. Pancho Villa was one of
them. When one of their number Is
wronged they sleep uneasily until VEN
geance has been done.
The present revolt in Mexico is one
of Northern military chieftains, whose
great leader, Obregon, was murdered.
They believe that Obregon was muir
dered at the instigation Of labor
leader, his enemy, Luis Morones. Not
all the court trials and government ex-
plantations in the world can shake their
certainty of this, whether it is right or
wrong At the time of Obregon's as
sassination Sonorans charged publicly
in Mexico City that Morones was re-
sponsible, but Gales protected the man;
at least did not prosecute or Danish
him
The men who loved Obregon and fol-
lowed him were angered when Gales,
one of themselves, protected Morones,
who was not their friend. Gales had
his choice on the day of Obregon's death
of choosing to stand with his old friends
or his newer associates. He chose the
latter, and must now take up arms

which followed Madero's overthrow of
the old regime of Don Porfirio Diaz.
He fought for Carranza when Madero
was, in turn. deposed. He was active
in the establishment as President of
Adolfo de Ia Huerta, a strange old man,
one of the few who voluntarily stepped

gon was that successor.
When it became obvious to De la
Huerta that what he had expected of
Obregon as President was not to be
achieved he revolted against the man
he had placed In the chair. Obregon,
aided by most Of the present rebel gen.
erals, suppressed De Ia Huerta's revolt,
which began in 1928 and was put down
the following year. In the year that
De Ia Huerta's forces were defeated and
he was exiled, Gales took the presi-

the latter's approval. Both were

and If Gales was q man Of much more
, liberal ideas than Obregon, he was at
least a known quantity.
The Case Of Morones.
Obregon remained In Sonora, the
leader Of the Agrarian party, although
Gales ruled. Gales did not turn en-
tirely frim the plans of the Agrarians
but he included in his government plat
form much that they had never included
in theirs Aside from the anticipated
domestic programs he included recog-
milton of labor beyond Agrarian ex-
pectations.
In doing so he took into his cabinet

nor has one developed since Madero
took up arms against Porflrio Diaz in
1910.
The issue now, since the tactics fol-
low we'll established lines, depends upon
preponderance Of men and money,
which means arms, and upon leader
ship, which counts for much. The fed
eral government has more men, more
reserve equipment, more money and
central base. The rebels have in their
favor the imponderable factor of SUI
perior field generalship.
Cause Of Alignments.
AS in political campaigns in this
country, the alignment of men in a
purely military revolt such as this one
in Mexico depends upon series of
events reaching far back on promises
made or broken or kept. upon friend
ship and preference shown in times of
peace, as between elections. The align
ment in the current revolution began
taking form six years ago, although 1t
has shifted greatly during that time.

reins when the European war drew us
into the mouths of hell. President
Wilson promptly summoned Hoover
back from Europe, asked him to take
charge Of conserving and co-ordinating
the supremely important American
food supply. Wilbur met him at the
dock He had felt the call to war
service, had calculated, coolly and sci
entiflcally, that food would win the
war;" and was not unmoved by admira-
ton for that friend and associate who
was going to assume the impossible
task. There followed two OF three
months of uncertain status, during
which Hoover started the job in hotel
suite, with Wilbur acting virtually as
his secretary. When Congress gave the

Proves Superb Speaker.
In that capacity he uncovered an
other of those fluid talents with which
he is always surprising his friends. He
proved a superb speaker. He shows In
that power also Lincolnian touch. It
isn't oratory in the accepted meaning
of the word. 1t is good, logical COM
mon sense shot with idealism. The
expression is the condensed speech of
the English Bible, and then out of
that background springs q homely
anecdote or simile. a flash of wit, which
Eliminates the whole situation. His
speeches through the country rousing
the American woman to sence of her
place and duty in the. war had as much
to do as his quiet wisdom in council
with the enormous and furious success
of the Food Administration. All that
time, with his left hand, as 1t were, he
was running his university, transform
ing 1t virtually into a training camp
and working on half a dozen Cali
fornia organizations concerned with
the war. Only when Germany col
lapsed could he strike his regular gait
as university president.
He faced a peculiar problem with
which he and Stanford have struggled
ever since. Senator Leland Stanford
and Mrs. Stanford gave the university
their whole great fortune: so far as
man could see then, sufficient to main
tain it as a major university unto all
time. Indeed, at the turn of the CEN
fury 1t was second only to Harvard in
endowment Then the cost of living
began to soar, and as wealth accumu-
lated there came an unanticipated de-
mand for higher education.
Problems Of Stanford.
Our great Eastern universities net
the first of these contingencies by in
creasing-nay, by multiplying their
endowments. That for them was COM
paratively easy. Always they had their
proportion of alumni with inherited
fortunes, which generally increased
greatly during this period.
But Stanford began life as a "poor
mans university" less than 40 years
ago, and in a region just emerging
from the pioneer era. Scarcely a man
or woman of the early classes came
from a family much above the bare
margin Of comfort. There are now

It is an odd circumstance, but Stan
ford is still the newest born Of the Sis

1891. and since that time, spite OF all
our colossal national wealth, no other
first-class university has been founded
in the United States.

Hoover Hears the Call.
Herbert Hoover heard the call from
Oregon and entered with the pioneer
class of 1895. And next year there came
from Riverside a freshman who regis

carried q double burden in his college
years. He entered almost unprepared,
making up his entrance requirements as
he went along, and he worked his way
through. Wilbur, on the contrary, had
