After peace had been restored, the settle- ment grew and was given the name of Guadalajara by Captain Juan de Ofate, in honor of his commander Nufo de Guzman, who was born in the Spanish city of that name. The city subsequently became the capital of New Galicia and in 1560, by decree became the Epis- | copal power of Western México. Noted as the center of early re- form movements, as well as for the liberal policies of its rulers, the city grew slowly but steadily, becoming with time one of the} most important communities of the Republic. Today Guadalajara is the second largest city in México, famous | throughout the land because of its industries, its fine pottery and, | above all, because of its traditions | and great culture. It is the seat of a University, has a splendid mu- seum housing colonial arts and crafts, a magnificent Cathedral and numerous churches containing masterpieces such as a genuine Murillo depicting the Asumption of the Virgin Mary. José Clemente Orozeo, famed Mexican muralist, executed some of his finest murals here, decorating the walls of the University and Orphanage with his | powerful paintings. Enjoying an unexcelled year- round climate, the citizens of Gua- dalajara pursue their daily tasks with that serenity, combined with | thoroughness, which characterizes the real tempo of life in all of México.

Spanish Version Page 3 “La Prensa” Lashes Rojas Pinilla’s “Totalitarianism” BUENOS AIRES—(UP)— The newspaper La Prensa charged edit- orially that the Colombian Govern- ment of President Gustavo Rojas Pinilla is moving closer daily to “absolute state domination” and the “disappearance of every vestige of representative government.” In an editorial entitled “Totalit- arism in Colombia” La Prensa said the latest curbs decreed by the Colombian Government against newspapers and radio staticns are a new denial of “human freedom and of all conditions essential to republican life’. Such restrictions, La Prensa said, go against the democratic sy- stem and against “certain Inter- american conventions which are law to their signatories (Colombia among them).” “We are pained to see that far from easing the rigour with which progressive restrictions to public ters taken from the caurier “show once again the relations existing jbetween Perén and Communist | elements.” It was learned that one letter from Peron expressed confusion over the victory of anti-Peronist | elements in recent elections of lab- jor union officials in Buenos Aires. | Peron pleaded with his corres- pondents in Argentina to “please tell me the truth and do not de- ceive me about the country’s poli- tical and economic situation.” freedoms are being applied there, every day that passes brings new evidence that the plan to annihi- late them is carried out inexor- | ably.” Suppression of recognized rights La Prensa said, “goes against man’s dearest aspirations and against the very nature of things.” Only “those blinded by the pas- sion for power believe it is possible to destroy democratic in- stitutions and replace them. . .by dictatorial concepts.” Will Participate The pretty wife of the Chilean consul in Miami is one of ten beau- ties already selected to represent the Pan American nations in the gala pageant which will highlight |the opening of the 163rd.

Firecrackers and mortars were going to be fir- ed and two alcohol bonded ware- houses, which the Tax Department keeps in the vecinity, were going to be set on fire, even so by doing this the city would be in danger of being gutted by fire. The informers said that the as sassin was trained outside the country by ex-ceptain of the Na- tional Guard Adolfo Alfaro, who, at the same time, psycologically instructed him. It is added that, in Managua, there are persons confessed of having contribut- ed with cash to support the assassin, who - obeyed orders from ex-Colonel Manuel Gémez, Hernan Robleto and Alberto Ga- mez. All these persons, the in- formers assure, got together in Mé- xico before coming ‘to Managua to put in practice the prepared plan.-| a group of other armed individuals, | | Herbert L. Matthews, Managing Editor of “The New York Times” and Carl W.

Another one, in honor of Ackerman, will be set up in a conspicuous place of the Journalism Faculty building in Columbia University. Edward W. Barret, Dean of the Journalism Faculty, introduced the five award recipients and then Arthur Hays Sulsberger, President and Director of “The New York Times,” delivered an address. Barret made a small biography of each one of those honored at the. moment of their introduction. Referring to Alvarez del Castillo, he’ said: “He worked, in his youth, in the whalesale grocery business owned by his father, but mean- while, he continually was writing in newspapers and was anxious to publish his own. In 1917, when he was 36, he found the opportunity to do so.” Alvarez del Castillo founded “El Informador” in 1917, in his native 15,770 editions.” “More than one year ago — he continued — “El Tiempo” was forced to discontinue publication; but his owner, Dr. Eduardo San- tos, decided to publish another newspaper. Anew he elected, as Editor, Roberto Garcia Pefia, news- paperman, diplomat, international traveler, champion of liberty.” Barret said that the Colombian Government has granted the per- mit for “El Tiempo” to reappear; but Santos and Garcia Pena de- cided not to publish it “while com- plete freedom of the press does not exist in Colombia.”” Referring to Michel Torino, he said that “his difficulties started in 1939, twenty nine years after he founded “El Intransigente” with some friends and after he became the sole proprietor of “a news- paper that, with a circulation of 18,000 is not big but it is high and knouw for its value in the whole free world”. “Michal Torino difficulties Barret said — _ started in 1939, when his paper declared itself in favor of the allied cause and. thus provoked the totalitarian political forces.” HAVANA, Oct. 19—(UP)—Sev- eral leaders of the Nationalist Re- volutionary Party were arrested at Varadero Beach today, as they tried to sail on another excursion to Key Sal (Cayo Sal), “to regain the sovereignty of that stretch of Cuban land,” according to a state- ment issued yesterday. Those arrested were questioned by Colonel Pilar Garcia, Chief of the Army Regiment of Matanzas, and later they were sent to Ma- tanzas’ police headquarters. José Pardo Llada, head of the Nationalist. Revolutionary Party, announced that attorney ario Meanwhile, the British Embas- sy here labeled today as “irrespon- sible” two bands of Cuban youths who carried out the bloodless “in- vasions” of Britain’s tiny Key Sal islet 25 miles off Cuba. The invaders met with no re- sistance from the two Britons found on the 50-square mile islet as they lowered the Union Jack and ran up the flag of Cuba yes- terday. ‘ The Cuban Government admit- ted it was informed of the incident but disclaimed any connection with it.
