IPs Angeles, Cal., May 22. That
the appointment of Francisco I. Ma
deira, Jr., as president of Mexico will
by no means restore peace to that
country was Indicated here today by
the Los Angeles rebel Junta, represen
tative of the Mexican liberal party,
which Is conducting the Insurrection
In Lower California, Sonora, SInaloa
and Southern Mexico, and which con
trols the army of Genera Figuerra,
which la reported encamped near
Mexico City.
After two weeks of debate in their
inner councils, members of the junta
today sent to the printers a draft of
a manifesto appealing to all members
of the liberal party to keep up the
the
war, and to Socialists all over
wcrld to lend them assistance. The
manifesto, in pamphlet form, will be

and distributed broadcast.
The manifesto reads. In part,
as
follows.
"The Mexican revolution must go
on until It has won for the people
ecenomlc independence. Much blood
has been shed; much money spent;
Immense sacrifices have been made.
It would be lunacy to permit all this
to be wasted on a mere ehange of
presidents or cabinets.
"Fnom the first Madero's sole aim
has been political; the substitution
of his government for that of Diaz.
Madero belongs to' one of the weal
thiest of Mexico's families, which
-nwns approximately 5,000,000 acres
of land. That very fact constitutes
him a member of the slave-holding
class.
"There Is no guarantee that under
Madero, or any of his supporters,
the people of Mexico wilt be happier
or more prosperous than under Diaz, i
Madero has used for his own po
litical advancement the following of
the Mexican liberal party. He has
transformed for the moment an eco
nomic revolution Into a political, al
leged reform crusade.
From the first the Mexican liberal
party's sole aim has been economic
the substitution of an economic lib
erty for slavery.
"The liberal party will not lay
flown its arms until the natural re
sources of Mexico have been restored
to the people for their free and equal
use."
The manifesto, among others, is
signed by General Figerra.

ident, said that it would affect all of
