NEWS REVIEW OF
CURRENT EVENTS
Misfortune for Mexico—
By EDWARD W. PICKARD
PEiHaPs the greatest
that could happen to
this time was the murder of Gen
viaro Obregon. Quite aside from
heinousness of crime, the
sination of the president-elect removed
from the scene the strongest and most
progressive of republic's leaders,
and not only threatened the country
with renewal of the chaotic conditions
that have held it back for many years,
but also imperiled recently re
stored friendly relations with the gov-
ernment of the United States. The
excellent work dowe by our ambas
sader, Dwight Morrow, In the latter
regard was given powerful aid by
Obregon and his administration, which
was to have been installed on Decem-
ber 1, would have carried It on to the

by a young man who has heen ident}
fled as Jose de Leon Teral, an art
student. The assassin was. arrested
but refused to name his accomplices
or the instigators of the crime. A
score of suspects were taken In cus
tody. Alberto Cruz was immediately
supplanted as minister of by
Zertuche, of Obregon's
closest friends, and both he and Pres
ident Calles promised that the murder
would be cleared up and those guilty
punished. In a signed statement Calles
sald the had admitted that
the motive of his crime was religious
fervor, and added that
the authorities had obtained much io
formation “implicating directly cler
leal action™ In cbnclusion., Calles
sald: “Finally | want to annoufice
that the government will continue as
heretofore within constitutional paths
and with the requisite calmness and
energy.” This was taken to mean
that he would not attempt! to continue
in office after November, as the Mex.
lean constitution forbids direct
cession of the president in two terms
in office. However, that constitution
has been altered before to fit cireum-
stances and may be changed again

Despite the words of Calles, 1° is
scarcely conceivable that the Catholie
church in Mexico as an organization
or any of its responsible members can
have instigated the murder of Gen.
eral Obregon. The relations between
the church and the government had
been steadily improving, and Obregon,
though pledged to carry on the poll-
cies of Calles, was looked to as the
man to settle the trouble finally. The
best guess at this time ds that the as-
sassination was prompted by political
enemles of the president-elect who
utilized a weak-minded religious fa.

Telegrams deploring the erime were

Tellez, though terribly shocked, said
he was certain the tragedy would
bring about the unification of all men
In his country, sweeping away the dis.
turbing and reactionary elements. He
expected the old congress would be
called In session to prepare for a ape
cial election. The permanent commis

summoned to meet to consider the po-

ECRETARY KELLOGG'S anti-war
treaty goes marching on toward
complete victory, Last week it was
ficcepted in principle by Great Brit
ain and the dominions of Canada,
Australia, New Zealand, Union of
South Africa and by the Irish Free
State and India, Acceptances also
were received at Washington from
Belgium, Poland and Czechoslovakia.
All the answers, It was believed,
would be found satisfactory by the
American government. Approval had
already been given the pact by Ger
many, France, Italy and other nations,
and that of Japan was considered cer
tain. if the various reservations of
some of the governments, which are
not radical, can be accepted, the final
success of the great plan to outlaw
war seems virtually assured. The
treaty is to be signed during the com-
ing fall by the principal powers and
will go Into effect with the deposit of
the ratifications. It will remain open
for signature by other nations.
