OBREGON WING WINS IN OUSTER OF ÜBORITES Mayors Are Dismissed in Federal District by Government. BY G. F. FINE United Press Staff Correspondent MEXICO CITY, July 28.—The anti-labor group of the Obregon party today was elated over what they considered an important victory in their campaign to have all Laborites excluded from the government. Luis Morones, who recently resigned from a cabinet post after the assassination of President-Elect Alvaro Obregon, is head of the labor group. He was Obregon’s chief political foe. Soto Y. Gama, head of the anti-Labor group, had demanded that Laborites be excluded from the government and also blamed that group for psychological influence in the assassination of Obregon. Friday the government was reported to have decided to dismiss all Laborite mayors and other office holders in the federal district. They will be replaced by Obregonistas. Now the anti-Labor group has requested that this action be carried out through the entire republic, thereby completely stripping the Laborites of government power. Should the government fail to do this the anti-Labor group threatens to create trouble. One meeting was held this week by the anti-Labor group—the third such meeting since the assassination of Obregon—and Y. Gama, Manrique and other speakers emphasized there were two points to their program: 1. Elimination of the Laborites. 2. Assurance that the new provisional president would be thoroughly in accordance with the Obregon principles.

Or maybe it’s just another way of wooing sleep—like counting sheep jumping over a fence.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

ENGLISH KING APPONTS NEW CHURCH CHIEF Reform Prelate Is Named Canterbury Archbishop; Son of Minister. BY ARCH ROGERS United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON, July 27.—A prelate who gained renown through his reform campaigns today had been approved by King George as the archbishop of Canterbury—the ecclesiastical head of the Church of England. The Most Rev, Cosmo Lang, archbishop of York, was approved today by King George to succeed the Rt. Rev. Randall Thomas Davidson as head of the church. The former archbishop resigned this week, asking that his resignation become effective Nov. 12—his golden wedding anniversary. It was considered likely that Dr. Guy Warman, bishop of Chelmsford, would be appointed archbishop of York. Wanted to Be Lawyer The new archbishop of Canter-bury-born Oct. 30, 1864—desired to become a lawyer rather than a churchman when he started his education. He was the son of a minister and was educated at Glasgow University and later at Balliol College, Oxford. Then he entered Middle Temple bar as a “devil” under Sir W. S. Robson, later attorney general of England. On the eve of his admittance to the bar, however, he decided against law as a career and in 1890 was appointed curate of Leeds. Three years later he became vicar of St. Mary’s Church, Oxford, and later was appointed a fellow and dean of divinity of Magdalen College, Oxford. His first bishopric came in 1901, when he was appointed bishop of Stepney and canon of St.. Paul’s Cathedral. It was about that time he started his advocacy of reform. Appointed by King Edward

Dr. Lang’s eloquence was known and as canon of St. Paul’s his position in the church was high. Nevertheless, he carried on the campaign for reform from the pulpit —often caustically criticizing. His socially elect congregation—and also often could be seen at nights wandering through the lower east end taking his campaign to the saloons and music halls of that district. In 1908, Bishop Lang was offered the position of Bishop of Montreal, but strangely enough refused. The following year he was appointed Archbishop of York by King Edward.

POLICY OF U. S. STARTLES EAST Relations Strained Over Chinese Situation. WASHINGTON, July 28.—Secretary of State Kellogg’s surprise move in negotiating a tariff treaty with the Chinese nationalist regime has startled the diplomatic world, according to dispatches received here. Persons close to the Administration conceded it to be possible that this unexpected gesture would react, perhaps unfavorably, upon American relations with other powers in the Far East. It was considered particularly significant that the United States should have chosen this moment to advertise its friendship for the nationalist government. Observers pointed out the gesture comes when relations between Tokio and Nanking are at the breaking point over Manchuria and when Japan, supported by Great Britain, is attempting to command observance by the nationalists of the socalled "unequal” treaties, which the United States has now moved to replace, s ofar as American interests are concerned, with other agreements* Authorities denied, however, that Secretary of State Kellogg had any thought in mind in undertaking the negotiations other than to enhance American friendship for China and to encourage the nationalists in their government building task. They declared the negotiations were actually started last March before the Manchurian situation had developed and before Nanking had renounced the Japanese treaty.

HOOVER KEEPS BUSY SCHEDULE ENJUYINGWORK Up at 7, Secretary Has Time Only for Business With Few Exceptions. By Times Special PALO ALTO, Cal., July 28.—Herbert Hoover has not obeyed President Coolidge's injunction to “take it easy.” Since reaching here, he has spent from fourteen to sixteen hours a day engaged in the business of being the leader of the Republican party and its presidential candidate. Taking up some of the burdens Coolidge is laying down, Hoover has found it easier to give advice about “taking it easy” than to act on it. He arises at 7, drinks a cup of coffee, works for an hour on his acceptance speech, eats breakfast with his family at 8:30, and then begins conferences that last until noon. Even at meal times he is not free, for he usually has friends or political callers to lunch and dinner. Afternoons are filled with more conferences and further work on his Aug. 11 address. In Perfect Health Mrs. Hoover has tried to persuade him to take an afternoon nap each day, but without success. The Hoover temperament does not permit him to imitate his President in this respect. While there is daylight and lamplight, he insists upon preparing for the fall encounter. Coolidge often naps in his executive offices at the White House, but Hoover won’t lie down even when on a supposed vacation. His only respite from the day’s political demands is an automobile ride at sunset with Mrs. Hoover. They motor about the university grounds, to the neighboring towns of San Jose and San Mateo and toI ward Mount Diablo, where the two of them often tramped when they were youngsters at Stanford together. But there Is no foundation for reports of Hoover’s ill health. He looks in the pink and the lines of weariness that appeared on his face when he left Washington have disappeared. California climate and a return to his home surroundings have refreshed him. His family have a job driving him to bed. Until the late night hours the light in his study in the white-walled Pueblo house topping the hill above the university shows him to be still at work. Stars Vacation .Soon Hoover does not think he is working hard. He insists he is taking it easy. For many years he has reduced his day to such a routine that he can accomplish a maximum of work with a minimum of energy. His trip to the north woods will not be what most people would call a vacation. He will make fifty miles an hour for five successive hours on each day except the one spent at his camp. It will be a flying squadron of cars that will roar up California’s roads, but that is his idea of rest, to favel 1.5C0 miles in four days for the sake of one day’s fishing. That explains why he can't take naps or follow Coolidge’s advice. HOPWOOD WILL FILED Playwright Leaves $150,000 to University of Michigan.
