PHOENIX, Arizona, Sept. 2
CAP). Political f error on a na
tional scale, for some time at high
temperature in the teeming east,
has at last leaped the barriers of
prairies and mountains into, this
vast western region of small pop
ulations and great distances.
j iibit six ween remain -oeiore
lection day bat for this group of
states just within the coastal plain
ft is sufficient now that the fight
ing of primary and nominating
convention was subsided, for out
here they prefer to start leisure
ly and wind up with a great
plash.
Party leaders in the states of
the Rockies, wedged between the
mid-west and the Pacific sea
board,; hare learned after much
experience .that It is not possible
to keep scattered groups of vo
ters at fever pitch for long, so
they are' conserving their energy
for a whirlwind finish that will
sweep their partisans to the polls
on election day. Upon how well
they succeed will depend the di
vision the .electoral votes owned
by Arizona, her border neighbor.
New Mexico, and the more north
ern Nevada, Utah, Colorado and
Wyoming.
These six, states will cast 22
votes in the electoral college, one
less than half New York's quota,
and they are controlled by an elec
torate that approximates just one
quarter the size of New York s
voting populace. , ;
Colorado leading with six votes,
Utah having four and the others
three each, they form a block
that neither Herbert Hoover nor
Alfred E. Smith is willing to sur
render without a fight; in face
both have made especial appeals
to them. All of theee states are
interested to some degree in wa
ter power, most of them particularly-in
the disputed Boulder dam
project, and it was with than in
mind that Hoover soon after his
acceptance speech discussed the
subject at Los Angeles, and Gov
ernor Smith dwelt upon it in his
recent Denver address.

TflRflL CASE ARGUED
MEXICO CITY.Sept. 27. (AP)
Although Prosecuvor NIeto in
arguments here before the Mexi
can court which is hearth? a mo
tion to dismiss the charges against
those - held with Jose de Leon
Toral, assiassin of President-Elect
Obregon, declined to discuss the
religious aspects of tha case,
counsel for the defense today
brought these phases of the prob
lem into the discussion.
It is expected that decision as
to the appeal by Mother Concep
cion and 15 others for their re
lease will be reached in about 10
days.
The prosecutor limited himself
to setting forth the legal questions
as the only ones competent for
prese-ntajion before the court.
Demetri Sodi, defense counsel
declared however, that Torel's
deed could be charactered only
as a "politicio-religious" act
which had its origin in the closing
of the churches which prompted
passive resistance by thoae unable
to take up arms.
Sodi said that this nucleus ol
passive resisters grew when mem
bers of honorable families were
thrown into dungeons for the
"grave offense of baptising babies
in their homes."
