...from California that he was behind him. Almazanistas have boarded the bandwagon. That wry little labor leader, Vicente Lombardo Toledano, whom Avila Camacho repudiated before his election, has echoed his disapproval of "crazy strikes" and begun trying to negotiate a settlement of a miners' strike in Nueva Rosita, Coahuila...
Showing how little he cared for any U. S. property rights, President Lázaro Cardenas last week grabbed 7,230 acres, more than eleven square miles, of pasturage in the State of Coahuila, owned by a San Antonian, Mrs. Lettie W. Weller.

Last week the Legislature of the State of Morelos passed a bill to tax each cleric 300 pesos ($120) per annum. In the State of Coahuila cinemas with religious themes were banned. Debate in the Federal Congress for a fortnight past has been painful to Christian ears. Repeatedly the Savior's Holy Mother was termed by Senators and Representatives "the so-called Virgin Mary." Last week the Congress added insult to injury by voting unanimously...
