BIG PARTY PLANNED
BY R%EVOLUTIONISTS
Efforth to Weld Group Will Come
to Head at Convention
in March.

MEXICO CITY, @.-EffortS TO weld
Mexico's so-called revolutionary ele-
ments" into one strong group will be
brought to a head in March when the
national revolutionary party holds Its
convention at Queretaro.
The party, now in the organization
stage, is an attempted merger Of many
small political clubs and associations
spread throughout the country and
whose platforms agree in that the pro-
gram of the revolution, formulated in
1910 when the Diaz dictatorship was
overthrown, should be carried out.
Some of the ORDINATIONS disagree in
their interp-c .c.ion of the program,
but the organizers of the big party hope
to bring about an understanding and
formulation of one general platform
with nomination of a commo presi-
dental candidate to run in the cleo
tons next November.
II the convention proves successful.
perhaps the strongest political party
ever built up in Mexico will come into
being. Heretofore most of the revolu-
tionary groups have been acting indie
p~endently.
Formation Of the big party is an idea
that had its inception in a speech made
by the then President, Gen. Gales, be-
fore Congress last September. Gales
offered to take charge of the organiza-
ton work, and Immediately after COM
pleting his term as chief executive he
became head of the organizing commit
tee. In view of later political events.
however, he resigned from this post and
has retired to private life.
There is much speculation as to the
party's choice as presidential candidate.
A short time ago it appeared that Aaron
| Saenz, governor of the state Of Nuevo
Leon. had the support of the majority
of the groups that will make UP the
party. 3

Q.N.S0.-william p. MacCracken,
Assistant Secretary of Commerce
former Assistant Secretary of Com.
merce for Aeronautics, was among
those awaiting the arrival of the
Graf Zeppelin here today despite a
crack-up of his plane earlier in the
day at Bridgeton, N. ].
Although the plane was badly
damaged MacCracken and his pilot,
C. A, Charles, escaped with minor
bruises.
The former Secretary, in a Bull
monoplane, was en- route here from
the Cleveland air races when Charles
lost his way and thought It advis-
able to land. After circiing Bridge
ton for half an hour in search Of an
airport the large field surrounding
the Bridgeton Asphalt Company was
chosen for q landing. Barely skim.
ming a church steeple and the build
ings Of the Central Railroad of New
Jersey Charles brought the plane to
earth on the rocky ground where it
turned over twice and came to rest
against q telephone pole. Motorists
who had gathered extracted the Sec.
retary and pilot from the wreckage.
After telephoning his wife in
Washington of his safety, Mac.
Cracken completed the remainder
OF the journey by automobile.
