AMONG WORKERS
BERKELEY, July 30.—Mexico’s
huge estates, relics of the old Spanish land-grant days, which have in
some cases run into millions of acres
and invested the owners with all the
power of a feudal lord over his tenants, are ‘being broken up and distributed to the common people as
rapidly as the Cardenas government
can push its program, according’ to
Professor Herbert I. Priestly, professor of history and librarian of the
Bancroft Library at the University
of California.
Professor Priestly, whose special
province is Mexican history, has just
returned from an extended stay in
Mexico, during which he studied the
result of the Cardenas reform movement at first hand.
The subdivision of large estates,
started under Presidents Carranza
and Obregon, languished under the
Tule of subsequent presidents until
, Cardenas took the helm. Since his
‘ taking office, says Professor Priestj ly, subdivision, with corresponding
; 8rant of small farms to the common
farmers, has been extended into
states which were not touched by his
predecessors and renewed in others,
such as Colima.
Nor is the government making any
attempt to pay for the land,, having
dropred the sham of giving indemnity in bonds. The common people are
so taken with the idea of owning
their own land that at the president’s
suggestion they have organized agrarian militia in many places to prevent the landed gentry from making
any attempt to turn the tables.
The result has been an increasing
enmity on the part of the wealthy
. conservatives. Cardenas, himself, de. Spite his popularity with the com. mon farmers and laborers is dependjent, just as all Mexican presidents
‘have bee, on the support of the
; army, some of whose-most influent. Jal generals are themselves large
. land-holders. Professor Priestly, be. Heves, however, that the army, bet. ter educated and more honest than
ever before, and possessed of a new
' professional spirit which marks a
. distinct break with the past, will rei main loyal Thus, barring anw widei Spread discontent; the Cardenas govTake a drive in our ©

simply to demonstrate the increased
mileage of this new 1936 Ford V-8. It is not
a “special” Ford car. It is a regular 1936
stock model Ford V-8 with distinctive exterior decoration and a

differently from any new stock car. The jug
is added so that you can see a measured
