RED PLOT TO KILL
. RIVERAREVEALED
Many Communists Smuggled
into Spain by Portuguese
Are Arrested.

JBr tho Associated Press. *
PORT VENDRES ON THE FRANCO
6PANISH FRONTIER. December 28.
■—The communist plot, although the
first reports were thought to be
greatly exaggerated, appears to have
been a well-organized effort toward
revolution with the widest ramifica
tions. The Portuguese leaders in the
movement acted In the closest touch
with comrades in various parts of
Spain, and astutely took advantage
of a recent international association
foot ball Vnatch at Seville, played be
tween teams of Spaniards and Portu
guese, in order to introduce Into
Spain daring men belonging to their
organization.
It Is generally reported that the
mayor of Seville obtained knowledge
of a plot against Gen. Prlmo Rivera,
president of the military directorate.
He is said to have been Informed
that ten professional assassins bad
taken up their residence In Seville
with the intention of killing Gen.
Primo Rivera when he mado his in
tended visit there.
Round-up Leader*.
The government police Immediately
took steps to round up the foment
ors of the plot, and found documents
which led to the arrest of many
dozens of communist* in other cities
of Spain. These men now are in Jail.
The reason for the postponement of
Gen. Primo Rivera’s visit to Seville
was the knowledge that the plot had
been formed. Gen. Primo Rivera usu
ally does not take undue precaution#
with regard to his personal safety.
Ho displays the greatest bravery
w hen In attendance upon public func
tions and show's almost reckless dis
regard for the possibility of at
tempts being made against his life.
It is believed through the prompt
action of the authorities a movement
was stifled which might have had
sinister effects in Spain, as numerous
elements of the discontented are said
to have been waiting an opportunity
to start trouble.
Rumors Are Thick.
Political circles are filled with ru
mors of the difficulties with‘which
the government is faced, coming
from various quarters. Poltteal ad
herents attached to the former regime
are known to be active behind the
scenes in an effort to restore the
previous Influence, while the military
men are not absolutely in unison re
garding the system adopted by the
military directorate.
Among the rumors, some of which
are of a fantastic nature, may be
mentioned one—that a strong ele
ment, composed of army officers, has
pointed out to the directorate that
the members of the military govern
ment are falling Into the old habit
of attending banquets and receptions,
instead of attending solely to the
work of the government, and have
expressed fear that they will eventu
ally evolve into a new political party
W'ith vices similar to those which
preceded the September revolution.
CO-ED’S POPULARITY
LAID TO SELFISHNESS
More Snubbing She Does More
Sought After She Is, Says
Analyst.
PALO ALTO. Calif.. December 28.
Only sixty co-eds at Leland Stanford
University are “stellar steppera,”
while the remaining 440 have to be
••ontent with but scattering atten
tions from the 2.200 men in the insti
tution, according to the Daily Palo
Alto, a student publication.
A ‘'stellar stepper" is, in college
Parlance, a very popular girl.
A recent letter to the paper signed
* Patty Gray” offered an explanation
-p* the position of the 440, and eg-
Pfeseed to the ipan students curiosity
as to the cause of the situation.
“I wanted to know’ why Stanford
men rushed sixty out of 500 women,"
said the communication. “Tou said
that if I signed a promise never to
break dates or substitute other girls <
or neglect my old friends, why, you’d !
give me a rush like some of the j
'stellar steppers' receive.
“It's too funny. All of these ‘stel- !
lar steppers’ break dates at the ;
eleventh hour and fifty-ninth second, i
Tt Is they alone who can afford to i
substitute one from the 440 when a I
more delectable date la perferred. J
And only the star performers forget j
old friends. And it’s queer as it's
true that these earn* snubbed friends I
grow more persistent One wants
what one can’t have, you know.
“The qualifications you hold up as
desirable are the v,ry ones the non
steppers posses. You men like to be
abused."
