Noted Mexican
Radical to Run
For President
Tejeda Placed on Ticket
By Coalition of Workers'
And Farmers' Parties
MEXICO CITY, Aug. 16--P)-The
Presidential candidacy of Col. Adal-
berto Tejeda, launched by a coali-
tion of workers and farmers' parties
in Vera Cruz has again focused the
limelight upon that noted anti-
cleric and radical.
His public acts as Governor of Vera
Cruz have disturbed Mexican Feder-
al policies several times in recent
years.
The candidacy is for the Presiden-
tial elections two years hence. More
conservative political circles believe
that Tejeda's friends have been pre-
mature and therefore his chances
for election are not regarded as at all
bright.
Tejeda's most recent publicity came
through the Vera Cruz expropriation
law which made all private property
subject to condemnation and seizure
for "the common good." The Gov-
ernor let the law go into the code
despite protests from many quarters,
including a severe Presidential frown,
The Colonel's enemies have brand-
ed him as a Communist and he has
not denied the impeachment. Even
his friends admit that he is an ex-
treme radical.
Although Tejeda had a previous
term as Governor of Vera Cruz, it
was as Secretary of the Interior in
the Cabinet of President* Calles that
he first came to general attention.
This happened when Calles decreed
that the religious paragraphs of the
Constitution should go into effect.
Paraguay Wants Peace

Ayala declared today at ceremonies
marking his inauguration as Presi-
dent.
The new President asserted that
Paraguay is and always has been
ready to submit the conflict over the
Gran Chaco to any conciliatory trib-
unal.
