MEXICAN RAIL FEME SOUGHT Fortes Gil Placates 200 Determined Strikers. n>‘' p - MEXICO CITY. June 1 —President Emilio Fortes Gil. who already lias intervened to settle amicably ' he Mexiean student strike, was acting as benefactor to railway strikers today, in his effort to establish harmony among the Mexican people. The president took upon himself the task of finding employment, for 200 railway employes who sat down in the Mexican supreme court building and declared they neither would, eai nor leave until the court reconsidered its decison that, the 1926 railway strike was illegal. \ A personal representative of the president called upon the strikers yesterday afternoon and told them if they would end their fasting that Fortes Gil would attempt, to find employment for them as rapidly a> vacancies occurred. The president reminded the men that, there was no appeal from the supreme court's. decision. The railway men entered the courtrooms a few hour after the supreme court gave Hs decision Thursday. They were not taken seriously until the following morning, when hey were discovered still listening to speeches and reading messages or congratulations from o her unions. When they received the president's promise, they withdraw, saying they would accept it if their union approved.

VIRGINIA TO BE TEST OF G. 0. P. RULE IN SOUTH Anti-Smith Democrats Still Fight Against Party Regulars, BY RAYMOND CLAPPER Lnit-d Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, June I.— Virginia, one of the four states of the once solid south to go Republican last November, has become the battleground for the new struggle to determine how lasting the Hoover invasion of Democratic soil is to be. Virginia elects state officers from Governor down next fall, the first of the bolting southern state to hold a general election since the 1928 contest. Democrats held the state since reconstruction days, except for the occasional loss, of a congressional district, until the bolt precipitated by the nomination of Alfred E. Smith. Normally 50,000 Democratic majority was turned into a 25.000 Republican majority. Bolting Democrats were urged today to refuse to return to the Democratic party so long as John J. Raskob retains national leadership, in an open letter by Bishop James Cannon Jr., of the Methodist Episcopal church, a Virginian and leader of the anti-Smith Democratic fight last year. Bishop Cannon, writing to J. C. Moss, chairman, and L. F. Powell, secretary, of the Virginia, executive committee of anti-Smith Democrats, said: “To accept now thd present-day still unwashed and still unrepentant state or national Democratic party leadership would be to brand as utterly mistaken and unwarranted the course pursued by the anti-Smith Democrats in 1928, and would, Therefore, very properly subject them to contempt and ridicule as •quitters’ or ‘cowards’ in a strenuous, unfinished, still continuing conflict for the maintenance of the great moral and social policy of prohibition." Cannon urged that the conven-
