'ACHIEVEMENTS
| ' Mexican President Will De
scribe Term’s Work In
1, Congress Message
I Mexico city, Aug. s. (av
| President Portes Gil will summarize
| the achievements of his administra
I tiono In s message to congress at
| the opening of the regular sessioon
Sept. 1, five months prior to the
dste on which the provisional chief
executive is to turn over the reins
of government to his successor, to
be chosen in the national elections
Hot. IT.
In his message the youthful pres
ident. now in his early thirties, will
lay stress on several of the accom
plishments of his nine months old
administration, which has been
by outstanding constructive
endeavors as well as one of the most
turbulent periods In recent Mexican
history.
He will embody in his message the
Official report of General Plutarco
Bias Calles on the campaign
against the Escobar rebels in March
and April of this year, giving his
predecessor in office the Lion's
share of the credit for the rapid de
feat of that movement. The report
will give official figures on the cas
ualties and financial losses sus
tained during the rebellion and re
veal other aspects of the revolution
as yet unpublished.
Church Question lip
Oofng Into another phase of his
government's activity, the president
will deal with the settlement of the
three year church-state controversy,
announced Jpne 21 in simultaneous
statement* by the head of the gov
ernment and Archbishop Leopoldo
Rule y Flores, papal delegate to
Mexico. He will lay stress on the
Pacification of the country as a re
sult of this settlement, which
brought about the end of guerilla
welfare waged by Crlstero bands
over a period pf some 35 months,
and will set forth that the country
la at peace, ready to devote itself to
the gigantic task of reconstruction.
Among other accomolishments of
his administration. tm president
will refer to the cessation of govern
ment control over the national uni
versity. which was made an auton
omous Institution under Joint stu
dent-teacher management by pres
idential decree a few weeks ago.
He wUl gq into detail on the anti
alcohol campaign which he person
ally Initiated and which now is be
aconducted by a national com
ee constituted under his direc
tion. The campaign, the president
will point out. is based cm "persua
* '■ion” rather than prohibition, the
mttp being to Interest the people in
uplifting dversions and productve
occupants and thus wean them
away from the "pulqueria” and the
drink habit.
Difference of Opinion
There has been some difference of
opinion as to the real nature of the
campaign. Inasmuch as the pres
ident some time ago recommended
eventual prohibition of the manu
facture. sale or consumption of
liquor of high alcoholic content, and
several state governments have es
tablished prohibitive taxes on estab
lishments selling liquor.
Formulation and presentation to
the present extraordinary’ session of
congress of a projected national
labor law also will come in for
prominent mention In the execu
tive’s message. The labor measure
has created more general Interest
any other act of the Portes Gil
administration and has been equally
defended and attacked. The pres
ident. who drew up the project when
he was minister of the interior in
the Galley government, has asserted
It fills one of the country's greatest
and Is one of the outstanding
developments ol the Mexican revo- j
lutlon.
Extension of facilities for educa
tion in the rural districts and sev
eral other items of interest will be
mentioned in the message.
Face Election Task
The present administration has at
least one great trial still to face,
the task of conducting an orderly
general election Nov. 17 falling to
its lot. In this ejection the people
will be called upon to select a suc
cessor for the provisional president
and th« latter has declared that not
only will he insure the people’s right
to vote as they wish but he will
gladly turn over his office to the J
man chosen to succeed him. accept
ing thereafter whatever post the na- j
tion wishes to confer on him. how
ever humble it may be.
There is now no indication of
trouble in connection with the elec-!
tion and General CaU;s. still looked
upon as the strong man of Mexico,
has judged the situation so prom
ising as to allow him to make a long
desired trip to Europe. He is re
cuperating from a bothersome ill
ness and holding conferences for
financial reorganization of the na
tional railways, a task which the
beard of directors assigned to him.

—Feasibility that the city of Port
Worth would preaent a test case
in connection with the new four
oent state gaaollne tax law
today with the announcemeo
City Manager Carr that the city
council might be asked to approve
such a move.
The city has objected to paying
the tax on gaaollne used on gaso
line used by the municipality. it
bolds that the state has no right
to tax a city and that the tax. a*
it applies to municipal gasoline. Is
unconstitutional.
It is tentatively planned to pur
chase a quantity of gasoline in
Oklahoma. This. It was pointed out,
would cause the state to file suit
for collection of the tax if tt ex
pected to collect the money
Present supply of municipal gas
oline is sufficiently ’arge to make
unnecessary anv additional pur
