HEARST PAPER SCORES "SCOOP"; HAS CALLES TIED TO THE MAST
NEW YORK, Nov. 15. (P)--Hearst newspapers in the second of a series of articles copyrighted by the Washington Herald printed purported facsimiles of documents from the secret archives of the Mexican Government showing the Corinto Peace conference, arranged by the American State Department in October of last year in the hope of ending the Nicaraguan revolt, was broken up by Calles.
One of the documents is a telegram purporting to have been signed by General Alvarez, chief of the Calles staff to Aaron Saenz then secretary of the Mexican Department of Foreign Relations. It instructed Saenz to have the Mexican Ambassador Gravioto, at Guatemala, inform Sacasa, Nicaraguan Liberal leader, if peace arrangements were not based on arrangements concluded in Mexico City with the Liberals, the controlling executive power of the Mexican Government would retire all moral and material support immediately.
