Fir J] | LUIS MORONES 18 Mexico City, July oyu Morones, political foe o nera Alvaro Obrégon and who resigned the ministry of labor at the behest of elements, was the ob- ject of a search by the police, Gen. Antonio Rios Zertuche, appointed chief of police to investigate the assassination of Obregon, said that Morones was reported to be in hid- ing. He added that the police were investigating a rumor that he was concealed in Mexico City. The chief also stated that Jose Deleon Toral, the art student, who killed Gen. Obregon, had made a 'complete confession." Just what was in this statement was not re- vealed. The statement said no- man Catholic clergy have been co- operating with the police in their investigation, The first pro- nouncement by President Calles after the killing of Obregon laud the blame for the crime upon Catholics generally and members of the priesthood in particular, This sentiment was echoed by Gen. Zertuche, He did'not go in- to details respecting the co-opera- tion which he is now receiving from leaders of the church, clergy were to blame for the assas- sination. At any rate, it served to further lessen the tension in Mexico City. Perhaps, because of the ' emo- tional character of the national mourning for Capt. Emilio Car- ranza, the day was one almost without any trace of the ominous atmosphere that has prevailed since Gen. Obregon"s assassination, In the homecoming of the air hero, surpassing any demonstration in Mexico history, the people were diverted from brooding upon the Obregon tragedy.: Pledges of support continued to pour in upon President Calles from all parts of the country and grad- ually a feeling of optimism con. cerning the future development. In religious circles "this feeling was manifest. At one time codfish formed the currency in Iceland. We are very glad we "didn't have to go round with the plate in church--Punch.

Mr, Ellsworth has arranged his personal affairs so that he may leave this country at a moment's notice. His offer of services he cabled to Lauritus Swenson, Am- erican minister, at Oslo, Norway, who is in direct touch with the relief work now being carried on, In his cable Mr. Ellsworth has left open the final decision of whether or not such a last effort as sug- gested could be undertaken, through his associates the Arctic explorer has made it clear that he is prepared to "spend thousands of dollars" if the slightest advan. tage is to be gained from such an effort. Mr. Ellsworth's proposition is to use a Dornier-Wal plane, and to fly from Bergen, Norway to Trom- so, where a search could be start. ed from the air of the area to be north where Amundsen is believed to have been forced dow. Mr, Ellsworth's offer of services were made in the following cable: Minister Swenson, American Embassy, Oslo, Norway, If you approve would like Deor- nier-Wal meet me Bergen fly Tromso, thence search appropri. ate northern area for Amundsen. Please inquire cost, availability of plane, pilot, if plan meets yous approval, , LINCOLN ELLSWORTH. Mr. Ellsworth when seen at the Metropolitan Club declined to ela- borate on his offer of services or to give further details, saying that his cable message was self-explana- tory, ; Other inquiries he referred to Commander Fitzhugh Green, U.S. N., retired.' ; Close Friends ~~ ¥'/ v "Mr. Ellsworth and Amundsen were close friends and naturally he wishes to have no doubt that everything possible for his rescue was done," sald Commander Green. "He 'is ready to leave at a mo- ment's notice to head this new ex- "| pedition," It was recalled that when Neo bile was first lost that Mr, Ells- worth cabled abroad offering his services. "At that time the nature of his offer was mistaken and it was reported in London that Mr, Ellsworth was prepared to finance heavily a large relief expedition, This misunderstanding caused Mr, Ellsworth considerable em- barrassment as rll he was prepar- ed to give at that time was his personal services. When Commander Green was asked if this new offer was of the same nature as the first, he said, "No, at this time Mr. Elsworth fis in a position to finance a relief flight to rescue his friend, if pos. sible, and if need be to spend thousands of dollars if there is any indication that through the expen- diture of such funds and his own effort good can come." .
