Leftists, egged on by their most fiery orator, Vincente Lombardo Toledano, Secretary General of the Confederation of Mexican Workers have barked at Cedillo's heels for months. Their cries of "Fascist" influenced Cardenas in dropping the "Bull of Potosi," General Cedillo, from his Cabinet. Since then, President Cardenas has been trying gingerly to pull Cedillo's political teeth in his home bailiwick. To get the General safely out of Mexico, he offered him the choice of a foreign diplomatic post. "I have no interest in foreign affairs," retorted Cedillo. "I find conditions in Mexico much more interesting...

Despite its market effect the President's speech did not alter the obvious political fact that the Administration has no more intention of letting a runaway bear market develop now than it had to see a bull market get out of hand last spring. At that time the Federal Reserve Board was bearing down on credit. Fortnight ago it started to loosen up, persuading the Treasury to release $300,000,000 worth of "sterilized gold" (TIME, Sept. 20).
