NOGALES, SONORA. Mex.. Oct. 22.—<l'.P>—Federal columns, ordered to “shoot first and question later,” were boring into the heart ol Sonora’s warlike Altar district tonight. In an effort to smash insurrectionist activities.
Return of Gov. Ramon Ramos to Hermo5illo, capital city of Sonora, according to reports reaching here, virtually flung down a battle gauge to rebellious ranchers and insurrectionist bands, which now control a vast portion of northern Sonora through political overthrow of municipal officials.
Challenge Answered Insurrectionists had demanded Ramos’ removal as basis for cessa- ( tion of rebel raids, and the govern- j or's return from Mexico City, cou-i pled with the swift movement of federal troops, was interpreted as j the retort of President Lazaro Cardenas to the rebel challenge to state j authority.	i
Gen. Juvenito Espinosa, due to ar-| rive at Nogales tonight, will assume | command of all federal troops in . Sonora, following an order from j I President Cardenas relieving Gen. | I Juan Zertuche, former military I Icommander of Sonora.
American military observers saidj Iroads south of the border were! 1‘teeming with federal troops.’’ Bridges Are Burned American passengers on a delay- j led Southern Pacific tram, which larrived here 16 hours late, said railroad bridges had been burned in the [Santa Ana district, near the center if insurrectionist activities.
Three bridges were burned, but ■damage was only slight and they |were repaired quickly, according to sfficial reports. Another was burned near Hermosillo.
Reports from the south said Col. Manuel Chavez, in command of military forces in the Magdalena district, had been relieved and ordered fo report to Hermosillo.
Agrarians were reported active rithin 30 miles of the border, but ispection of the area by military jservers disclosed no evidence of ay armed resistance.
Two Arrested Reports from Altar said federal roops had arrested two supposedly lebel leaders named Pablo Rebeil pid Juan Caballero. The latter re-sntly was elected temporarily to a lunicipal office in the Altar district |o replace officials who fled when ebels raided the area.
Louis Prima and his New Orleans Five will entertain today at the football rally.
Auditions Scheduled

LAKE CHARLES, La., Oct. 22— (Uii)—Striking union longshoremen battled imported port guards along six miles of waterfront today.
Two guards were killed and nine wounded. Strikers claimed they had no casualties.
Quiet was restored just before dark when strikebreakers were escorted off the docks and through picket lines to safety.
Sporadic fighting continued all afternoon, with the situation completely out of control of deputy sheriff’s.
Appeal Sent Hoover
Citizens appealed to both J. Edgar Hoover, chief of the federal bureau of investigation, and to Gen. L. F. Guerre, head of Louisiana’s state police, for protection.
Sheriff Henry Reid went to Baton Rouge to talk with Gov. O. K. Allen about martial law. The governor, however, was reported out of the city.
The dead were William Bass and Lon Santon, both of New Orleans. Santon died in a hospital of a bullet wound in the stomach.
Four others still were confined to a hospital with wounds. They are: Frank Crumbeugh, Julian Martin, Frank Miller, and William Blake, all of New Orleans. Five others were discharged from the hospital after treatment. All are white men.
Guards Wounded
The dead and wounded were special guards, brought here Monday to open the port by force and to protect strikebreakers. The port had been paralyzed since October 8 when the International Longshoremen’s association called a strike on the west gulf coast.
Shippers arranged for the Louisiana Longshoremen’s association, an independent group, to take over the dock work and imported the 75 guards, all heavily armed and bearing state police commissions, to escort them through union picket lines.
Strikebreakers Opposed
A force of 700 pickets was lined up to oppose the strikebreakers. Fighting started at noon when San ton tried to run a truck load of supplies to the docks. Pickets fired on him. Port guards returned the fire and the battle was on.
Pickets blocked all roads during the fighting, including a section of the old Spanish trail leading to Texas. Rice trucks and cars of curi-
ous onlookers flanked the road. A westbound bus was held up for an hour.
No one was allowed past the picket lines as the opposing camps exchanged fire. Workers and the guards were prisoners on the docks, surrounded by picket lines bristling with guns, clubs, and knives.
