GUFFEY DEWS Convention Held Great Suc cess, Indicating Victory in Fall. BY WILL P. KENNEDY. Buff Correspondent of The Star PHILADELPHIA. Pa , June J» — The State of Pennsylvania, second largest In the United States, about which there has been grave doubt whether it woltld support the Roose velt-Garner ticket, especially since the collapse of the Guffey coal bill, "is surely going Democratic.” This assurance was given yesterday by the jubilant Senator Joseph Guffey, who brought the convention to Phila delphia, and by Representative Patrick J Boland of Scranton, the Democratic “whip” of the House. Both also predict the re-election of Roosevelt and Garner with an increased majority. “Just an increased majority,” Senator Guffey nonchalantly re marked. “Before the convention came here I predicted that Roosevelt would carry the State by a larger majority than I did—128.000. I did not carry Philadelphia, but he will. I confi dently expect him to sweep the State with a majority of 250.000 to 300,000. "I did not see a delegate or an alternate who is not going home satis fied. Every one in Philadelphia— including those who 'put up’ the money for the convention—is satis "Wonderful Convention.” "It was a wonderful convention and the notification-acceptance cere mony was the greatest, most inspiring, spectacle in the history of the country. There were enough in Franklin Field Stadium last night to carry Phila delphia for the ticket. And they went away impressed. Through radio broadcasts the entire country was impressed, and their siypport of the ticket will be intensified a the dele gates and alternates spread their reports in the home areas. "The convention was a tremendous thing for Philadelphia in a civic and political way. It helped the city to find itself, just as the convention in 1912 helped Baltimore. Representative Boland Is almost as optimistic as Senator GufTev • about the Democratic ticket carrying Penn sylvania. He figures the majority will be 150,000 to 200,000. Mr. Bo land. In his capacity as "whip" and in co-operation with Representative Pat Drury of Virginia, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Com mittee. has been making a canvass of delegates to sound out the feeling of the country—asking for facts and not party ballyhoo—has figured it out that the returns this year will be stronger lor Roosevelt than four years ago. Knocker*” rresent. "There was general satisfaction with the convention—there were none of the usual ‘knockers'—among those who came here to spend their money In an effort to advance party inter ests. Many of them said the demon stration Saturday night, a marvelous spectacle, was worth the trip—and they are going home enthusiastic about the President and the plat form. The platform was different and impressive—a frank statement of a continuing policy, instead of blatant promises. The people felt the aincer lty of it. It stated that the question of wages, housing and social welfare ‘are matters of concern for the Fed eral Government.' I am satisfied that the Democratic Congress will pass legislation to that conclusion.” Mine labor and interests, which it has been argued would flop back to the Republicans on account of the eoal bill fiasco—will do nothing of the sort. Representative Boland was in conference with John L. Lewis, head of the United Mine Workers—and it is a pretty safe prediction that he will go to Boland’s home city, Scranton, as a campaign speaker for the Demo crats. Mike Kosik, president of dis trict No. 1 of the United Mine Work ers of America in Washington, has also been in conference with Boland. They are hopeful that an adaptation of the Guffey bill, or some similar aid to coal mine interests, will be passed by the Congress soon after It meets in January. -—- ... -0 AMPHIBIAN RECORD SOUGHT BY ANDREWS Headquarter* Force Commander Leave* Puerto Rico for New ark Airport.

NEW YORK. June 29.—More than 100 southern cruise passengers re turned yesterday to find Uncle Sam had reduced the free import liquor limit in their absence.

BACKGROUND— Since the announcement of the British intent to press for lifting of the sanctions against Italy, the government of Prune Minister Baldwin has been under constant fire from the Labor benches. Last week, speaking at a school 'ceremony, Baldwin indicated that he might not be in office long. Uf the Associated Press. LONDON, June 29 —The House of Commons decided to discuss declara tions made by cabinet ministers out side Parliament as a. matter of "ur- j gent public importance" today. The move for the debgte was in itiated by Labor party members, who seek to know if cabinet ministers are speaking for themselves or the gov ernment when they make public speeches. Prime Minister Baldwin took no part in the wrangle. Remaining at hi* country home, he was represented by Sir John Simon, home secretary, who told the House that the Paris speech on June 28 of Alfred Duff Cooper, war secretary, was not a declaration of policy. (In his speech, Duff Cooper told j his French audience: "Your frontier is our frontier.”) Policy Stand Disavowed, The home secretary said Duff Cooper's remarks were, “of course,” not a declaration of policy, but a speech devoted to stressing the ele- : ments common to the people of both countries. He added: ‘'The place for a declaration of the government's; policy is the Commons.” He disclosed that the draft of Duff ' Cooper's speech was submitted to the foreign office and subsequently al tered, but that Eden had not read It In Its final form before delivery. Ernest Thurtle, laborite, indicated he was not Impressed by this ex planation and asked whether Sir John was aware that "these pronounce ments by individual cabinet ministers on matters of grave policy which con flict with the frequently declared policy of the government as a whole are causing grave disquiet?” Clement R. Attlee, labor leader, also desired an answer to interro gations on alleged discrepancy between statements on German rearmament by Baldwin and the Earl of London derry, former air minister.

The writer, a veteran news paper man. has traveled extensively in Mexico and has lectured before many audiences on Mexican prob lems. BY GORDON GORDON. MEXICO CITY. June 2# iN.A.N A.t. | —Scene of one of the greatest soci-1 ological change* that have swept any , land in recent years—the efforts of an enslaved people to free themselves from the serfdom of feudal life— Mexico today ia apprehensively stag gering into another Summer of tur- i bulent dissension. This land of the plumed serpent is being harassed by strikes, rebel out- j breaks and religious riots which are terrorizing a considerable part of the ' countryside. Five thousand scattered rebels are pillaging villages and slashing off the ear* of school teachers. The number ; of the raids is mounting each week, ; and. where one revolutionist falls, another takes his place. Angry mobs of pioua women are i storming down cobblestone streets, rushing into the smoking muzzles of army rifles, and other zealous cru saders are setting Are to government school buildings. The casualties of the last three ] months of this sporadic sniping total 500 dead and more hundreds wounded. ] a death list larger than in most of j the major battles in Ethiopia. Killin*. and Flight*. As always In Mexican history, the clashes are confined chiefly to the hinterlands. It is in the rugged mountains of Durango, the great gorges of the Barrancas in Jalisco, the jungles of Vera Crua and the roelty heights of Guanajuato where men and women are killing for their causes and fleeing to retreats in the wilds before the cavalry arrives. Because of such discontent, Presi dent Lauro Cardenas is still walking the tight rope. In the bleachers alt thousands who are cheering him with the same unrestrained Joy with which Fascist Italy hails Mussolini. But tugging at the guy wires are four powerful groups which are trying to send him spinning into the net. And, from the entrance, anxiously i watch observers from the United j States Government, determined to protect, if need be, the 250.000 tour ists who are on their way here this yea?) the thousands of American eiti sena who live here and the billion dol lars that Americans have invested, one of the heaviest stakes Americans have in any foreign country. These observers also are scrutinis ing the surprisingly rapid spread of communistic ideas. For a baby 8oviet Russia along the southern border would provide a base of operations from which Moscow might penetrate the United States with its propaganda and agents. Communism was a chimera in Mexico a year ago, but to day it's beginning to become a stark realitv The thousand* in the bleachers are the workers and the farmers to whom Cardenas is a messiah. In little pueb lo*. they swarm about flaming red manifestos while some one reads aloud how the government is regain ing for them their birth rights, stolen from their peoples through the centu ries. With Nasi-like fervor they salute the black and red flag of the Na tional Revolutionary party, which dictates Mexican politics. If neces sary, they are reafly to become cannon fodder for the President. Unquenchable Bitterness. Those tugging at the guy wires, though, hate him with an unquench able bitterness and each awaits an op portunity to topple him. These four groups are: I. Parents, who sincerely believe that the socialistic schools are a threat to family life. They accuse the instructors of fostering immoral ity, especially in their program of ! sex education, and of teaching their i children atheistic doctrines. They pray for the reopening of the churches, but they go further for the i church school. They are ready to die, and they have died by the scores. Unwelded, however, they are power- < leas, but they dream of a strong man who may arias to lead them. Num- i berlng in the many thousands, they would gladly march under his banner in a religious crusade. J. The Communists, who believe i that Cardenas is moving too slowly. They tr^fel through “the country i preaching to the workers their credo i of, iwroluUoo hg blood. a# epjosbd i to the President's plan for a gradual, peaceful rise of the proletariat. Al though they number their followers at only 20 per cent of organized labor, yet their insidious propaganda may eventually convince a majority, espe cially If Cardenas cannot fulfill his promise* as quickly as a tempera mental people expect. 3. Business executives, who have been informed by the President him self, in one of the boldest tirades any chief executive of a republic ever launched against capitalism, that they must expect the workers to take over the industries "if you don’t co-oper ate to raise the standard of living." They are supported by the Callistas, the follower* of the exiled Gen. Plu tareo Ellas Calles, who are themselves wealthy. The financier* know from experience, however, that even suc cessful revolutions are disastrous to trade snd they will continue to grumble as long as the workers don't actually storm their gates. Professional Chiefs. 4. Professional rebel chiefs, who are operating in 19 of the 29 Mexican states. They are typical soldiers of fortune, holding together 50 or more ragged renegades each and staging sporadic raids. They keep agents In the field, soliciting capital from dis contented elements, especially Ameri can*, and become dangerous only when the treasury Is full. Three time* during the last 12 months, Cardenas has found the tlgnt rope swaying in heavy air current* The first time was a year ago. when he definitely broke with the master strategist, Gen. Calles Another President, Ortiz Rubio. h»d t.ted that only a few years before, and found himself In exile shortly afterward. The second time was last December, when Cardenas dramatically purged the army of grumbling generals an1 announced he was going to arm the agrarians. Pew Mexican Presidents ever have dared to organize a persons l guard. The third time was recently, when, in one swift stroke. Cardenas txiled Calles. The Ctlliataa were and are furious. They still possess vast power, but they fetr this man who has never made a mistake in politics, who, even as a rookie soldier, always chose the winning side, and they are playing a waiting game. Now again Cardenas faces a crisis. With Calles and his political enemies ousted, he must restore peace to the mountain and jungle lands. To keep In power, he must weather the mon soon that is going to howl in this Bummer and Pall from industrial cen ters as the worker* demand higher and higher wages. That is his prob lem in the cities, a comparatively bloodless one to date. But, in the countryside, it is other wise. There he muet crush the rebels who are threatening the country with anarchy, and he must calm the faith ful and atop the religious riot*, and he must keep his own farmers from be ing engulfed by the Communist propaganda which is being released by the cartloads in the agricultural center*. In his success in meeting these questions lies the fate of one of the most Interesting experiments in gov ernment of recent times, the revolu tionary plan of creating a powerful proletariat that would dictate to com merce, but, like communism, would not technically own or manage the properties.

P. Sen ate Nomination. B> the Associated Press. CONCORD. N. H., June 29—A three-cornered race for the Repub lican nomination for the United States Senate began today in New Hamp shire with the * former United | States Senator y George H. Moses of his candidacy for the nomtna tion. j»;< Senator Henry i W. Keyes already i has announced | he will aeelc re- & election and Gov. a H. Styles Bridges. 38-year-old chief I. executive, also is I a candidate for Et..Srnilt„ Mo„k. the nomination. Referring to the New Deal. Moses i said, "Long ago New England should ! have raised it* voice against a set of i policies so fatal to our interests. This j voice X think I can raise, and. if I may say so without Immodesty, I think I can give to New Hampshire and to New England the kind of rep resentation which is needed, this espe cially because the Senate seems sure to remain Democratic until 1941; and. therefore, the Republican President whom we expect to inaugurate next January will require the moet aggres i sive support which can be given to | him and his policies in a Senate which | is politically opposed to him." Moses, coiner of catch phrases, was i a colorful figure when he sat In the Senate. As president pro tempore of that body he clashed with Vice President Charles G. Dawes, who wanted Sen ate procedure speeded up. Moses championed the trsditional freedom of the Upper House and the rules were not changed. Moses went to the Senate in 1918 to fill the unexpired term of the late ! Jacob H. Gallinger. He was twice re elected. losing his seat in 1930 when many Republican strongholds elected : Democrats. He called that election day "a rank, wet Democratic day.” Long an influential figure in New Hampshire politics, Moses worked ac tively for Col. Fiank Knox in the latter's campaign for the presidential nomination and was one of his vigor ous supporters at Cleveland. Gov. Bridges nominated Knox for the vice presidency.

Whenever the applause began to fade, Mr. Roosevelt waved, shook both hands above his 1 heed, and once, when the jubilation seemed about to subside entirely, he pulled out an enor mous white handkerchief and gave the Chau tauqua salute. He enjoyed the crowd and the crowd reciprocated. The speech, like the platform, was splendidly vague. The President and his followers are con spicuously wary of making specific promises.
