Mugica withdrew in disgust at the
fact that a real radical candidate
could get no effective support In
what is supposed to be a leftist
country
BY then, the pressure-eSpecial
among those who had no govern
ment Jobs. CIR had lost them under
the Cardenas administration-grew
for Almazan to run. He resigned his
military position in June, and in
August made a triumphal entry into
Mexico City. He disappointed many
of his friends especially those who
locked for a real show of fight
against the government = when in
his first campaign speech he dealt
at length on what good friend he
was of Cardenas, and of how moth
ing his enemies might do would
cause him to go against the presi-
dent. This created the impression
that Almazan would put no diff
culties in the way Of CardenaS end
ing his constitutional term of office
but that if the election was award
ed to somebody besides Almazan -
then the situation would be differ
ent
Prun Group Fused
Having no well-organized ma
chinery like the semi-official PRM,
Almazan organized various groups
around him which fused themselves
into coalition known as the Prun
National Revolutionary Party of
Unification). Many of the former
supporters of Mugica, including the
noted muralist, Diego Rivera, join
ed the Almazan forces.
The campaign has settled down
to contest between Avila Camacho
and Almazan, although Sanchez
Tapia still remains in the running,
hoping that something unexpect-
ed" may happen which will make
him available.
Not long ago, Avila Camacho in
dicated that he was near a. break
with Lombardo Toledano. The Com
munists, in their March Congress,
did not show any enthusiasm for
Avila Camacho and went so far as
to purge the party directors who so
avidly jumped on his bandwagon.
The Communists adopted motions
urging vigilance to Swing" Avila
Camacho toward the left.
Thus so-called leftist Mexico has
three Conservative candidates. All
Of them have publicly expressed
their friendship for the United
States. They have invited Ameri-
can capital to come to Mexico and
aid in the country's development
All three are landowners. Almazar
is millionaire; the other two are
comfortably well off. 1t is thus nj
wonder that some of the extreme
left elements would like to see some
thing happen to prevent the election
being held.

Woman Gets
$1,000 Judgment
Against Saloons

PHOENIX, July 5-Beware, bar
tenders!
The Arizona supreme court Mon
day affirmed judgment of 81 900
against two Tucsonans, because they
sold liquor to John DAILY, "a habitual
drunkard."
Daly's wife brought suit for $5,-
900 damages against George w.
Pratt and B. G Moore for selling
liquor to her husband after she had
warned them not to sell him in
toxicants.
She contended that because the
liquor had been sold and consumed
by her husband, she was deprived Of
his "consortium.
After hearing the testimony, the
Pima county superior court award
ed Mrs. DAILY $1,000 in damages.
The high tribunals decision af-
firmed that judgment in a two-to-
one opinion. Chief Justice Henry D.
Ross dissented. because he felt the
ruling was an invasion bv the judi
ciary of the lawmaking powers.
However, he remarked. ''most peo-
ple will agree that if Moore and
Pratt, saloon keepers. sold intoxi-
eating liquors to Anna Daly's hus-
band after they had been advised
by her that he was habitual
drunkard and not to sell to him.
and thereby deprived her of his
support and society. she should have
right of action against them for
whatever damages she sustained.
and this right should be extended
to his children and other depend
ents, if any"

Stump The Quiz
Experts On Radio

BOULDER DAM, July 5-CUP)-
If you want to stump the quiz ex-
perts on the radio. ask them how
much water there is in Lake Mead,
in back of Boulder Dam, and you'll
probably have them scratching
their heads.
The huge man-made lake now
holds approximately 1852, ,784, $50 900
(trillion) gallons of water, accord
ing to the bureau of reclamation.
Then, if you want to add insult
to injury, ask the quiz experts how
many quarts there are in 1852, 1884,
3O,OOO gallons OF water and they'll
probably declare recess to think
it over.

Efficient Primaries

RALEIGH, April 26.-tP-W. A.
Lucas of Wilson chairman of the
state board of elections, expressed
1.-THE hope today that North Carolina
would have honest and efficient
primaries and general elections,
under the new slate Of election re-
form laws passed by the 1889 gen.

Lucas, who two years ago expos
ed irregularities in absentee voting
in the Eighth congressional district,
and who recommended the reform
laws to the assembly, said he did
not Participate any trouble at any
place."
Here to confer with Attorney Gen
eral Harry MCMILLAN in regard to
the new election machinery, which
will be given it's initial test in the
primaries of May Is, Lucas added.
1--WE have the finest spirit Of Co
Operation that we've ever had. l

He asserted that an opinion yes
Iterday by Attorney General Harry
MACMILLAN, regarding registration
under the grandfather clause
probably would apply to less than
100 persons in the entire state-and
might apply to none.
Mcmillan ruled that persons re.
lcorded on the books as having reg
istered under the grandfather
lclause" would not have to re-regis'
tier in counties which have called
for new registrations. Actually,
there are very few, if any, persons

"Those who are not recorded OF
