' C The half ruined building where Mexican in dependence was cradled over a cen tury ago is being restored. It is the parish church of Chilpancingo, cap ital' of the state of Guerrero, 05 miles inland from southern Mexico's Pacific coast. "Hitherto motorists have been in clined to zip through the town of Chilpancingo without a second glance," says the National Geo graphic society. "It lies two-thirds of the way westward on the 'roller coaster' highway which swoops over six ridges and deep valleys between Mexico, D. F., and Acapulco, the nation's Pacific 'Atlantic City.' Most travelers do not stop, for speeding through will permit them to accom plish the trip in one long day. More over, Chilpancingo lacks the lure of intriguing quaintness, for it ap pears quite modern. Two earth quakes within the present century made necessary rebuilding opera tions, which produced a town with a rather modern i air. 4 .. "A historic landmark, however, will hereafter bait Chilpancingo's hook for passing travelers. The church, in course of restoration, has the double - attraction of having housed the first democratic congress Of Mexico and having been the scene of framing its declaration of inde pendence. rTwo Heroes Recalled. "At the invitation of Morelos-a mule-driver turned priest, then rebel general Mexican provinces which had thrown off Spankh rule sent elected delegates to Chilpancingo's church, and for unliberated provinces Morelos appointed other representa tives. Their first congress con vened on September 14, 1813. Al most two months later, on Novem ber 0, their declaration of independ ence was ready. New laws abolished slavery, c. ste distinctions, and the tribute demanded from Indians as subject tribes. "Chilpancingo marked the turn ing point in the success of Morelos' share in the revolution. From there he marched away into a series of defeats. Finally, while holding back a royalist army at a narrow defile in the mountains to allow his men to escape, he was captured and shot. "His revolutionary mantle fell fig uratively on the shoulders of Vicente Guerrero, who used his knowledge of the mountains around Chilpancingo for surprise attacks with his rebel followers, and equally as surprising escapes. Traveling secret trails, he found ways of furth-ering-and financing the revolution cause. Once he took the bronze church bells of a mountain village to be melted into cannon, paying for them only with a note of thanks. Admiring Indian followers would not exchange the note for fuller pay ment: His' birthplace at Tixtla, near by, -gives Chilpancingo a further claim to the attention of Mexican patriots. Patriots Honored. "The mountainous area which this second " ' leader frequented was named for him, the state of Guer rero, with Chilpancingo as its capi tal. The town's central location gave it a claim for this honor, although Hs size still is around 10,000. Its full name is Chilpancingo de los Bravos, or Ciudad, Bravos, in honor of the reyolucary lroes. H "As state-capital, and. as nodeszi community profiting by older '.mis takes -which the eartWu! wipe out, Chilpancingo is cleaner and lees crowded tli an many of its neighbors. A spacious Plata, hotels with shaded Satios, and new buildings are in eeplnl with its official position, Not far away, Indian boya m taught the ways of present-day life in a federal school, v '. i "The town lies in a small valley scooped out of the last high range of the Sierra Madre del Sur on the Pacific side. Almost a mile above sea level;, this lofty Valley is com fortable and fertile. Indians on mule back amble to town on market days, each bringing his small stock of gourds, beans, Indian corn, potatoes, or green and red peppers. -Little piles of fruits and vegetables, neatly and sometimes geometrically : laid out on mats in the market place, are supervised by women in the universal dark blue woolen shawl, or rebozo. "Chilpancingo's, little valley, al though it figures pot at all in the nation's export trade, produces wealth of fruits and excellent gotten, cocoa, and coffee. Mineral wealth, too, Is ' hinted of, -and legends of Montezuma's gold still survive. .' '"The town blossoms with native color during - its annual Indian festival in December. Primitive mu sic, monotonous beating on the tall, upright hollow-log drums, and, ritual dances with masks erase any im pression that ' 'Chilpancingo la alto gether a modern town. The Dance of the Tiger, sd" old that no one remembers its original meaning, is i rrf-wmed " in ferocious ' looking i tfycHov. tvjth'prtrtruding and r.jta.eyes,...- -J V,'; 'm ii ; . tal'aet - -jvtl!l:. 7 r ..... - i 4 1 .r l - -J Swimming Suits de Luxe ' ' I : .: , . rf r.
