PEACE OVERTURES FAIL IN MEXICAN SITUATION (Continued from paga 1.) in some sections, but from this in formation it appears that nothing serious has developed anywhere. Reports are that 17 persons have been arrested and charged with removing treasures and val uable objects from Catholic churches. The Mexico City au thorities are investigating reports of municipal committees appoint ed to take over the churches that valuables are missing from many of the edifices, including the ca thedral. While the cathedral continues closed pending a further check of the inventory of its treasurers, the other churches were open again today, although only a moderate number of worshippers were seen inside in Mexico City. Thus far there is title or no evi dence of the boycott under the auspices of the League for the Defense of Religious Freedom in Mexico City, although some com mercial houses and retailers ex press as apprehension that it may develop. In contrast, news from other sections of the republic shows that the boycott is in full swing in numerous towns, the people refraining from all pos sible expenditures in the hope of creating an economic crisis suffi ciently serious to influence the government to modify its regula tions. There have been numerous joint debates, with speakers represent ing both sides of the controversy, but thus far all have been peace ful. The first debate in Mexico City was between the secretary of edu cation. Dr. Jose Puig Casaurance, and Rene Capistran Garza, one of the directors of the league for the defense of religious liberty, who is under bail awaiting formal trial on the charge of inciting the peo ple to disturbance by means of the boycott. This debate wa sconducted in Mexico City theatre and was largely attended by an orderly crowdx Each side cheered as points were scored. DIVORCE ASKED LOR ANGELES, Aug. 3.

Other features are to be announc ed in the newspapers. - Copies of The Statesman con taining the series of editorial ar ticles on the sugar industry are going to persons interested in the development of this industry here, and extra slips will be printed and preserved, to be used in the same way, and to help in interesting the farmers of the Salem district who will be asked to grow the beets for Salem's first factory. Perhaps ether uses will be found for the series. The surest way to secure beet sugar factories in the Willamette valley is to get our people to think ing sugar; to get them to realize the value of the sugar industry to the men on the land, both direct and indirect; and especially indi rect. And the immense benefits that will accrue to the cities where the factories are to be located. m The time is now ripe for the de velopment of the beet sugar in dustry in this valley. The biggest thing in respect to its ripeness is the ravages' of the beet leaf hop per in a number of the sugar dis tricts of the country, putting at least 10 of the 11 idle factories in this country out ol business, and crippling others. Our im munity from this pest is the big thing. 4- Dr. G. R.
