.BULLFIGHTING
IS REVIVED
IN MEXICO
•
MEXICO CITY, Nov. 18 (by Associ
ated Press).—An energetic effort is
being made to restore bull-fighting,
which has been in eclipse since Presi
dent Carranza in 1915 prohibited such
spectacles in the federal district,-and
officials elsewhere frowned upon the
sport. A petition asking that the pres
idential decree be revoked, signed by
more than one thousand citizens of
the city of Orizaba, is now in the
r hands of the chamber of deputies, and
action upon it by the lower house is 1
expected shortly. A similar petition
last year failed in its purpose by a
single vote. Many persons believe
that with stronger pressure brought
to bear this year, a favorable decision
will be reached.
Indicative of a desire to see how
far they may go without official in
terference is the staging of several ex
hibitions in Mexico City and its sub
urbs within the past few weeks, while
President Carranza was away on vaca
tion. Advertised as mere exhibitions
in which well-known matadors would
“play with the bull," they developed
into the real thing, and once again
the “pelados” had cheap meat on
^ Monday, the poor class of natives al
ways by custom being given the car
cass of the bull after he is slain.
The newspapers were not inclined
to censure this technical infraction of
the law. Instead they devoted col
umns to descriptions of the fights,
comparing them with similar exhibi
tions before the prohibitive decree.
CANCER IS CLAIMING
THOUSANDS OF VICTIMS
LONDON, Nov. 18 (by Associated
Press).—If the present death rate
from cancer is allowed to go un
checked, no fewer than 25,000,000 peo
ple out of the present population of
the world must dies of this scourge,”
says Dr. Robert Bell, vice president of
the International Cancer Research So
ciety. He makes a plea for the treat
ment of cancer without operation.
