RELIGIOUS REBELS REPULSE FEDERALS Bloody Mexican Conllict Still Rages Alter Three Days Mexico City, April 25 (P — “Bloody” fighting between 1,000 so- called religious rebels and the fed. eral army of General S8aturnino Ce- dilio at Tepatitian, Jalisco, was be- lieved still in progress today after three days sanguinary conflict. Bhouting their battle cry, “Vive Cristo Rey"—"Longe Live Christ King"—the beleaguered rebel force ‘was said not only to have repulsed federal attacks with hand to hand and bayonet fighting, but to have in- flicted reverses on the government troops. General Cedillo, charged by Gen- eral Calles with *‘extermination” of the “Cristeros”—as the government terms the rebels—was quoted as ex- pressing confidence his men, su- perior in numbers and better equip- ped would prevail in the end and that he would invest the town. He had 5,000 soldiers at his command. News of the encounter came al- most simultaneously with advices of 2 peace offer on the part of Cedillo, declaring a 20 day truce in the re. gion affected by the pseudo-religi- ous rebellion during which safe con- duct to homes would be guaranteed those who surrendered. A proclamation by General Ce- @illo: “My soldiers’ right arms are cloaked with iron with which to de. stroy you, but their left arms, the arms of the heart, are cloaked in white with which to pardon you." Numerous Casualties Dispatches to Laprensa from Guadalajara offered the most com- prehensive accounts of the battle at Tepatitlan. The dispatches said there had been ‘“numerosas”—numerous ©or many—casualties. General Enrique Gorozieta, grad- uate of Chapuitepec mlilitary acas emy, Mexico's West Point, and for- mer high officer in the army of President Victoriano Huerta was &t the head of the rebels. It was re- called that he had never lost his bitterness toward the revolutionary | Mexican government, nor toward | the United States, since the del',n“ of his chief, Huerta, at El Raso. He joined with the “Cristeros” two years ago, | The La Prensa dispatches describe | ed the battle as “bloody” and the fighting as moat bitter.

News Creates News of the encounter caused the utmost surprise at Chapultepe: castle, considerable perplexity was apparent as to the exact stage of fighting on the west coast before Masiaca. General Cedillo was be- lieved to have had the “Cristero” sityation well in hand, and it had not been thought any unit of the so- called religious rebels consisted of more than two or three hundred men in it. As seen here the offer of amnesty extended by General Cedillo, evi- dently just prior to the beginning of the Tepatitlan engagement, contain- ed nothing new to Mexican law. “An inventory of the churches” was de- manded with every priest informing national authorities where he was afficiating. This provision, with its supple- mentary statement that government protection would be offered to church services after it was com- plied with, was seen as nothing more than the requirement of registration of priests made by the Mexican con- stitution. It was this requirement, to which the Mexican episcopate ob- Jjected when it ordered cessation of services more than two years ago. Pamphliets containing the notice of the 20 day truce—negatived ap- parently by the action at Tepatitlan —and the offer to the priests, with At the End of Elinor's 26-Hour Hop NEA New York Bureau After 26 long, weary hours in the air, while sh e swung in wide circles over Roosevelt Field, | el ver 0 Long Island, Elinor Smith, the “flying flapper” of Freeport, L.

Churchmen Disavow It This phase of Mexico's internal strife has been laid to ‘fanatic| Roman Catholics” by the Mexican government in pronouncements from time to time. Church spokesmen, however, have contended it had no connection with the church and re- peatedly have disavowed it. They have charged bandits used the guise of the church to cloak their activities, which have ranged over the states of Jalisco, Guana- juato, Durango, Colima and Aguas- calientes, Mexico City papers today publish- ed accounts of another occurrence in the affected area.
