LUIS STILL HOLDS
PRESIDENTS TITLE
0usted Brazilian Executives
Refusal to Quit Hits Rebel
Recognition Plans.

BY the Associated Press.
RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil. october
30.-Refusal of Washington Luis,
ousted President of Brazil, to resign
his ofice, has made diffcult foreign
recognition Of the provisional govern
ment which grew out of the recent
successful revolution.
Washington Luis, although held a
prisoner In Copacabana fortress by the
temporary government, has refused to
sign away his authority.
In diplomatic circles it was said TO-
day that recognition desired by the
military junta probably could not be
had much before November Is.
The deposed President Is said to
have told persons who have been per-
mitted to visit him that he is the head
of the only legal government In Brazil
and will remain so until his term ex-
pires the middle of next month. The
recent Brazilian revolution was ac-
centuated by dissatisfaction over the
election of DR.. Julio Prestes, who was
to have been inaugurated to succeed
Luis. DR.. PresteS was last reported a
refugee at the British consulate in Sac
Paulo.
Vargas Is Expected.
Daily conferences have been in
progress between the military junta
and revolutionary officials who have
been arriving from the various parts of
Brazil. The biggest is scheduled for
tomorrow when Getulio Vargas, de-
feated Liberal candidate in the last
elections end the choice of the inSur-
gents for the presidency, will arrive.
It had been expected that he would
leave Sac Paulo last night and arrive
today, but latest advices said he had
postponed his departure until this aft
ernoon.
Meanwhile, the military junta has
ordered the Banco do Brasil to sus-
pend the issue of paper money to an
equivalent of 10000, 900 authorized by
the former administration. Less than
one third Of this already has been is
sued.
Curb ON Communists.
There were rumors today that the
Communists who participated in dis
orders several days ago would again
cause trouble in some sections of the
capital. The police stated, however,
that there was nothing in the report
and that the department was active in
rounding up any who might give trou-
BILE. Many Communists have been
placed in Jail.
The local newspapers today reported
the arrest, by order of the minister OF
war, of Gen. Diogenes Tourinho, for
mer commander of the army detach=
ment in the state of Minas Geraes.

for IT years made with Secretary Mel
Ion after the title to the property had
been acquired by the United States in
condemnation proceedings. The lease,
they admitted, contained q provision
that it should be surrendered whenever
the United States should need the land,
Justice Adkins ruled with the conten-
ton of United States Attorney Leo A.
Rover, who represented the cabinet
officer, that the suit could not be main
tanned, because the United States, a
necessary party, had not been named
and because Secretary Mellon lacks
authority to make lease for II years

tenancy and may be terminated on 80
days notice, which had been given to
end July !, 1880.

ton that the bill of complaint did not
state cause of action and cannot be

NEW ELECTION LAW
IN MARYLAND SEEN
Broad Problem Developed by
Contests of D. C. Resi-
dents Rights.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, Md, october 30.-A
new election law for Maryland was a
possibility faced today, as the status of
hundreds of newly registered voters
were placed in the balance by the ac-
ton Tuesday of the Anne Arundel
County Circuit Court. This possibility
was dependent upon the decision of the
Maryland Court of Appeals at Annapo-
lis on the appeal from the holding OF
the Circuit Court that the election act
of the 1929 Legislature abolishing the
declaration of intentions act in all but
two counties was both a violation of the
State and Federal Constitutions.
The whole case was thrown into the
Maryland courts when Republican
workers in certain of the Summer colo
mics on the western shore Of the
CHESAPEAKE Bay and its tributaries
challenged Democratic voters who were
alleged to be residents of the District
of Columbia. The case in court was
based almost entirely on the allegation
that the registrants were residents OF
Washington.
Calvert Court Acts.
A record in trial and appeal was
made in connection with the contested
registration cases yesterday in the Cir
cult Court for Calvert County, at Prince
Frederick. Following hearing yester-
day the court in that Southern Mary
land county seat ordered 40 names
stricken from the registration lists. on
the same grounds as was ordered on
Tuesday by the Circuit Court for Anne
Arundel County The attorneys in the
case prepared their appeal and filed 1t
the same day with the clerk of the
Court of Appeals at Annapolis and It
was said at the State capital that it APP
peared certain today that a decision on
the matter would be forthcoming to-
morrow.
The Anne Arundel court ruled that
the amended act violates the second
section of the first article of the Mary
land Constitution and the fifteenth
amendment to the Constitution of the
United States isasmuch as it is APP
parently discriminatory and not uni
form throughout the State.
The court ruled that the amended act
violates the second section of the first
article OF the Maryland Constitution
and the fourteenth amendment to the
Constitution of the United States mas
much as it is apparently discriminatory
and not uniform throughout the State.
1t was said on good authority, how
ever, that the ruling of the Circuit
Courts will not affect the voters in the
coming election, pending the decision
OF the Court of Appeals in the case.
