Marte R Gomez strolled the streets today to demonstrate that 1 a ffscist uprising in the state of j Tamaulipas, which developed into , fighting annind the international bridge leading into Brownsville, , Tex . had been quelled. The governor said only four' lives were lost. Travelers from the ' Mexican border state reported at Brownsville, however, that 20 or I more were killed yesterday in two . towns, Matamoros and Ramirez, 20 ; miles south. The rioters wore the insignia ot' 1 Gen. Nicholas Rodriglez. exiled Mexican fascist leader, who has i been frequenting towns on ■ American side of the bordef for several months, claiming to have; an army of 800,000 ineu ready for i i a conquest of Mexico. Gomez admitted that Los Dorados lGen. Rodriguez' golden shirtsl were involved. He said it was "a publicity stunt to make Americans think there is discontent." Firing could be heard on the . American side of the border yesterday when police fought with revolutionaries who rode through Matamoros in a truck. Gomez said that only one policeman had t>een I killed in the fight here, and one policeman wounded. Police, aided by federal soldiers, were reported to have captured the truck, along with a quantity of arms and 3.500 I rounds of ammunition. Nothing was said of any rebels killed.' wounded or taken prisoner here ! Gomez listed the other three dead • as. two golden shirts at La Rosita I and one golden shirt at Sollseno. No other Information was given on the fights at the latter two towns. Travelers, however, report ed 18 men killed in a pitched battle between federate and revolution aries at Ramirez yesterday. Gomez denied that any were killed at Ramirez. Streets of this border town of 14,000 were almost deserted yesterday afternoon except for patrolI ing bands ot armed men. At dusk ! Gomez took the Latin method of j relieving the tensionl. Ho went • for a stroll. , By the time Gomez had taken a half dozen turns aitout the plaza | there were several senoritas on i the walks. In accordance with the i custom, the young men took up j the promenade in an opposite direction to the senoritas, alert for the favors of their sidelong glances, and lite was as it should be j again, despite the forms of soldiers and police lurking along the ! darker corners. o— A Gomt Town necatnr DR.
