He said that as long as the American government continued to show a de- sire to respect Mexican sovereignty the American people would have no cause to complain about their south- ern neighbor. But he warned that sovereignty “is a point on which Mexico canot recede or make con- cessions despite the magnitude of sacrifices that might become neces- sary ae Hopes For Understanding Saying that special mention was made of the United States because it is a neighbor and also due to the economic relations uniting the two countries, he added: “Fortunately the wisdom and_ patriotism with which President Calles and Ambas- sador Morrow have served their re- spective countries, have erased dis- ind-created a ceed under- standing which, with y heart, I desire may contin Portes Gil pledged his govern- ment to combat war, “even thoughts of war.” He said he would make sure that history would be taught in the schools of Mexico from a pacifist viewpoint.

She would not change her policy of] maki allowing foreign workers and _capi- tal to come and share the advant- ages of the land. He also promised that no prohibited duties would be placed on foreign manufactured ar- ticles that did not compete with Mexican industries.

ASSASSINATOR SHOT TO DEATH AS TRIAL OPENS Czechoslovakian Court Room Thrown in Panic by Avenger of Albanian Prague, Czechoslovakia, Nov. 30.— (AP)—Alcibiade Bebe, Albanian student who assassinated Zena Bey, Albanian minister at Prague and a| brother-in-law of King Zogu of Al- bania, shot to death today at the opening of his trial. His assas-| sin was a servant of Zena Bey’s brother. Before the slayer could be seized, an Italian newspaper man was ser- iously wounded and the official court internreter and a spectator suffered less :rious injuries. The court room was thrown into the wildest consternation by the ragedy. The assassin, whose name was not disclosed, fired six shots at his victim, the first of which killed; Bebe. Other shots struck the cor- respondent of Giornale d'Italia of Rome and Dr. Jetzura, the interpret- er. At the discharge of the bullets, which the police later said were dums-dums, the throngs in the court scurried wildly to the doors. In effort to make possible the as: sin’s escape, several ‘Albanian k ki men fired shots into the air adding to the indescribable panic.

RUSTIS, 83, -| WHOOVERCAME OBSTACLE, DIES Minneapolis is Philanthropist Brought Joy to Crippled Children Minneapolis, Nov. 30.—(?) His lifelong ampition to bring help and happiness to crippled children iam Henry Eustis, philanthropist, lawyer, and former mayor of Minneapolis, died here yes- terday at the age of 83. Mr. Eustis had been a cripple since he was 15 years old, the result of an injury. Despite the handicap he had made a fortune during his 47 years residence here, and he gave virtoally all of his wealth to promote the welfare of unfortunate children. His greatest gift, in this connec- tion, was the deeding of 65 acres of jand to the city of Minneapolis and the University of Minnesota and the building and endowment of the Min- nesota Hospital and Home for Crip- pled Children, valued at $1,500,000. Three brothers survive—Gardner T. Eustis, Minneapolis, and John E. Eustis and Anthony W. Eustis of Wew York city. Dream Comes True It was in March, 1923, in his sev- enty-eighth year, that Mr. Eustis took his first actual step toward the fulfillment of his plan. He deeded 65 acres of beautiful wooded property, central to Minneapolis and St. Paul and overlooking the Missis- sippi river, to the city and to the University of Minnesota to provide sites for the famous Dowling school for the crippled and for the hosnital and home of his dreams. Mr. Eustis then pledged funds to build and endow the hospital, total- ing $1,500,000—his entire fortune. He stipulated that the trust should not carry his name, “since the name of the donor will, in a generation or two at most, be forgotten.” He sug- gested the name, Minnesota Hospital and Home for Crippled Children. Born at Oxbow, N. Y., one of a family of 12 children, Eustis found it necessary to help support the household. His father was a wheel- wright and in addition to his shop had a small farm. It was while working on this farm at the age of 15 the youth met with an accident which made him a cripple. No rs Medical aid was scarce, since the Civil war was on and the north needed its medical men to care for wounded at the battle front. For ive years he clung to his life with an interest in his existence that proved stronger than disea: Finally, when able to leave his |, he managed to enter Gouverneur Wesleyan seminary.

He fought for health until he was able to discard his crutches. Was Civic Leader He came to Minneapolis a stranger, but he took a vital interest in public affairs and became recog- nized as ‘a leader. He invested '¥| wisely in real estate and with the rapid growth of the city his holdings were increased to include some of oe city’s most desirable business at.

During the latter part of Septem- ber and the first part of October, Mr. Becker, a representative of the Central UnitedsStates Swine com- pany, with headquarters in Spokane, Wash., visited the Sterling district. He was selling purebred Chester- White sows at $95 each. The 10 Sterling farmers contracted 40 ani- nals from him. In making the sale, the representa- tive ma a partly written and partly verbal contract, the farmers say. Each farmer was to pay $35 down on each sow. The company then agreed to purchase the off- -|spring from the purebred sows from the farmer, sums from the sales to be used to pay the remaining $60 on each sow, they say. Tuesday, another representative of the company arrived in Sterling with a carload of 95 purebred sows. The 10 farmers were there to get their 40 sows, all having made the | down payments on the animals. But the company than would not make delivery until the farmers paid the remaining $60 on each sow. Then the farmers went “hog-wild.” They have retained F. E. McCurdy, Bismarck attorney, in an attempt to get their down payments back. McCurdy said today that he is con- sidering the facts in the case and will take definite action in the near fusure. The man who came with the sows is said to be in the district yet. The farmers are: Carey Johnson, E. A. VanVleet, W. C. Hoeft, Knute Johnson,'Ed. Gibson, L. M. Johnson, Paul Lang, George Harding, Ed. Smith, and J. A. Norlin.

KING GEORGE'S LUNGS BETTER Danger of Increased Infection Not Yet Past, Royal Physi- cians Say London, . 30—(AP)—King George's condition showed some im- provement today but it was regard- ed that he is by no means out of danger as yet. An official bulletin issued by his physicians early this afternoon stated: “The inflammation of the lung and pleura shows some improvement. The temperature is slightly lower. The time of possible cxacerneere. of the infection, it must be noted, has not yet passed and in any case pro- gress must be slow.” This bulletin was. posted after a prolonged visit by Sir Stanley Hewett and Lord Dawson of Penn, the King’s physicians, during wl they called a third eminent ph; cian, Sir Humphrey Rolleston, into consultation. The alarm, which the calling of Sir Humphrey might na- turally have caused, was headed off by a simultaneous semi-official state- ment saying that his majesty was @ little better all around today and the regular bulletin, when issued, con- firmed this earlier communication. The information that there has been some improvement in the con- dition of the inflamed lung and pleura and a little recession of the fever, caused much zratification, but it was noted that the bulletin ended with the precaution that the malady has not yet passed the stage where aggravation of the infection would not be possible and made clear to the public that in any event there not be a rapid convalescence for his majesty since progress necessarily must be slow.
