MEXICO FACES CRISIS IN LACK OF LEADERSHIP Successor to Cailes Now Country’s Greatest Problem. 'This Is the last of three articles on Mexico by Dr. Gruenlng. who spent five years In Mexico gatherlnge material for a book, and who has had a close acnuaintance with all the men now figuring in the Mexican political situation.) BY ERNEST GRUENING Mexico’s great problem is to find a successor to Cailes. At present no qualified person Is in sight. The question is a complicated one. The following factors should be borne in mind: Mexico is still a one-man country; the processes of democracy there are still embryonic and have made little headway; with Obregon gone there is only one man who is capable of maintaining order, of leading the country forward. That man is Cailes. Cailes is extremely anxious to retire. He is fagged out. The burdens of the Mexican presidency are almost beyond imagination. The constitutional provision that no president can succeed himself in office has been a fundamental tenet of the revolution from the day of Madero. It could be circumvented. The obvious way would be for the Mexican congress, at the expiration of Cailes’ term on Nov. 30, to declare the presidency vacant and to appoint a provisional president. That provisional president might be Cailes himself, or it might be some temporary placeholder. He would then hold an election, which undoubtedly would result in the election of Cailes. All Up to Cailes The pressure on Cailes to continue in office will be tremendous, and he will have to balance his desire to retire to private life and to rstore his health, against the probability that if he takes his' hand off the tiller the ship of state wil go on the rocks. The name of Aaron Saenz has been the only one mentioned as a possible pres id e n tial candidate. Saenz won a generalcy in the revolution, but retired ten years ago, and is essentially a civilian in spirit and by association. He is honest. He was sub-secre-tary of foreign relations under Obregon and became secretary in the closing months. When Cailes became president he found the ministry of foreign affairs so well organized that he felt it his duty to continue Saenz in that office, although Cailes had slated another candidate for that post. Over a year ago Saenz resigned, having been elected governor of Nuevo Leon. He is a civilized individual with few enemies. He is a Protestant, something of a rarity in Mexican official circles. He is related to the Cailes family by marriage. He was an active figure in the Obregon campaign and would be acceptable, generally speaking, to both the Obregon and Cailes adherents. Lacks Force On the other hand, he is not a man of force and has not shown any extraordinary leadership. It may well be doubted whether he can hold down so supremely difficult a post as the Mexican presidency. Since the beginning of the revolution, every presidential term either has ended in disaster for the chief executive, or he has escaped disaster only by the narrowest margin. Tradition demands a general—one who is in active service, or recently in it. No one in the army today is of presidential caliber. Gasca, the Laborite, a general in the revolution, is distinctly of presidential size. But the present drive against the labor movement—wholly unjust in its attempt to link the Laborites with the death of Obregon—renders him, for the time being, unavailable.

THE RIVER’ CASTS UP ITS PEOPLE Allen John in His Youth Loved Rosalee, a Girl of the Construction Camps, and Its Men, but the River Conquered and Ruled ‘No.’ BY WALTER D. HICKMAN ROSALEE was of the river, one of its people and the river, mighty in its power, never gave Rosalee to a lad who became one of the men of the river. Allen John was the lad who loved Rosalee in a way that Rosalee was never loved before. She was of the river, of the railroad construction camps and its men.

You will meet Allen John and Rcsalee in “The River,” by Tristram Tupper, just published by the J. B. Lippincott Company of Philadelphia. Here is a story that is more than fiction. It is the recital of a boy’s experience beside a river in Thompson’s Valley, near Black Mountain. It is life told in the words of life The river, with all of its power and influence, reflects all of its power and influence upon the characters—real men and women. Rosalee, Allen John and all the others are not paper dolls made to do what the author dreamed. Rather, the author has recorded what these characters did no in real life by the river. Here is the story of a year’s experience of a seventeen year old lad, who killed the boy in him so that the man may come out and wear his spurs. Here is a story of Rosalee, a girl, who threw herself into the river and battled the rapids so that she might wash off the scars of “love” affairs with men of the construction camp. But the river kept Rosalee from changing too much. The river left Rosalee without love in her heart and that was dangerous. As she felt the new and clean influences of Allen John, the river washed in anew quality and Rosalee would run away from Allen John w’hen the flesh became dangerous. Here is a recital of a tremendous battle of children of the river fighting life. It is told by an author who seems to me to be a part of life. Tupper’s knowledge of life and the forces that go to make it is tremendous. He wastes no time, but he records truthfully every emotion that has something to do with the central acts of his characters. It is seldom in my experience of reading that the characters actually leave the printed page and become my companions, maybe not my friends, but characters of life. You can take or leave ’em, just as you desire, just as you would in real life. I Tupper has created in this novel, | “The River,” a monument of honI est writing that will live. It is so I much life, so much so that I hope it will be a best seller. This story is of life—the river of life and its experiences. A tremendous experience awaits | you as son as you start “The ' River.” Read it by all means.

EXPECT BATTLE FOR UNDERPASS ON HOLT ROAD County Commissioners Hold Public Hearing Today on Project. A spirited fight over construction of an underpass at the Holt Rd. intersection of the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Eastern Traction lines is expected at a public hearing on the road before the county commissioners Friday. Separation of grades is favored by county officials, citizens in the affected area, and opposed by the railroads. A second important step in the improvement of Holt Rd. also will take place Friday when $62,000 in bonds will be offered for sale on the south half of the road, which already has been approved by the county council.

The north half the road, or that part between Morris St. and National Rd., was disapproved because of the disagreement over the underpass. W. P. Holmes, vice president of the Wayne Township Civic League, has announced he will be present with a delegation to insist on the construction of the road with an underpass. He will be armed with statistics showing that the traffic along the

Morrisons * ¥ FOUfctt>ED 18S4 ***** 26 W. WASHINGTON STREET

north end of the road leading past Mars Hill airport is exceedingly heavy, particularly on Saturday and Sunday, and that the dust nuisances is very troublesome. Whether the county commissioners will agree to the road without the underpass could not be predicted today. Even should the commissioners agree to it, it is unlikely such a plan would win approval before the council, so strong is opposition there. If bonds for the south half are sold Friday, construction on this section probably will be started by early fall, while late fall or winter is the nearest date the north half could be started, even if an agreement is reached Friday. All three commissioners, Cassius L. Hogle, Charles O. Sutton and George Snider, are in favor of the underpass. County Auditor Harry Dunn anticipates no trouble in selling the bonds.

SLACK MUMjiN AL Refuses to Discuss Politics at City Hall. Mayor L. Ert Slack is not discussing A1 Smith’s presidential possibilities! The Democratic mayor said he Is attempting to avoid “a political atmosphere” as much as possible at city hall. “I am a Democrat and naturally interested in politics, but I feel that my job does not permit partisan politics. I can’t deal with the type of men I am doing business with and dabble in politics,” Slack said. "I am not discussing party, State or city politics,” he declared emphatically. City hall Democrats and other party workers have been anxious to learn the mayor’s views about Smith’s candidacy. Majority of city hall employes are Republicans and probably will be permitted to vote their choice in November.
