Mexico has been without priestly ceremonial in any Catholic church, as a result of the .ivemi'ieiit's religious res'-iint-cn.-. Piolinbly no other country over whelmingly Catholic has ever known a twelve mouths w herein no priest of thac faith has officiated in any of its churches. - The Mexican Episcopate ordered ,its priests to withdraw from tbeir churches and , to cease services therein, concurrently with the tak ing effect ot the religious regular lions, us a protest against them. Until that time Catholic service by priests in its churches had never in Mexico been stilled for a day since the, Spanish Conquistadores brought' the cross to the western world four centuries ago and piant 'ed it In the ruins of the Aztec .Em pire which they overthrew. During this year of deadlock be-, tween the' government and church. so-called Catholic revolution has been suppressed by the'federal au thorities: the foremost Archbish ops and Bishops of the Catholic church have been expelled from Mexico and are exiles in the Unit ed Statts,Hiio3tly'"invSan Antonio, Tex., 'and maiiy -Catholic' laymen have been .'arrested on charges by the' government that they, plotted revolution. With the exception of the great, historic Mexico City Cathedral, other places of worship' have con tinued 'open. The Cathedral has been closed a year. Churches are in charge of citizens' committees. Worshippers enter them at will. Services are -conducted by the laity, both men and woman, Inso far as it is possible for them to replace piiests. Religious services are secretly performed 1n private residences, although priests aud participants are' subject to arrest. GONZAGA ATHLETE .

PHONE 25 Prune Men Need Not Lose $600,000 Profitable Market Still Possible If Dominance of California Interests Are Shaken Off; Aggressive Combination of 4,000 Growers In Oregon and Washington Needed to Stabilize Prices. (OreRon Journal) beat their present price menace. ; They need not lose WU0.0U0 of a ?3.(IU0,U0I) crop. They can turn a prospective loss into a gain. , The failure of a recent market ing plan did not destroy the mar ket. The prune grown In Oregon and Southwestern Washington are the tart-sweet prunes. The crop uf these prunes this year will be OO.UUU.OOO pounds. .. Tart-sweet prunes do not con- fllct, and do not seriously cum pete J with 2tl0.0U0.000 pounds of 1'etlle, or sweet, pruneB grown ill Califor- n in. Often the two kinds are sold to gether, so that the merchant who buys may have a variety. The fla vor of the tart-sweet prunes does not pall upon the palate. ; The trouble Is that lethargy, lack of organization or some other cause has permitted California agencies to dominate the market ing of Oregon prunes.

The average European eats' three pounds, The Oregon- Southwestern " Washington prune crop would hot satisfy more than one-third the modest American ap- petite. The great European en- joyment. of what becomes In -the Oregon prune a delicious, rich and satisfying fruit creates a greater market. Honce there is' no need to let Calilornia dominate. There is no. need to let Oregon prunes go un der a California brand or" tinder a California sponsorship. A brief- review shows that nine prominent ' marketing agencies op erato in this field.
