MICHEL * To complete the Decree No. 164 issued by the Legislature XLIII H. Congress of State for which elections were declared valid conducted the first of July 1973, the Municipal Committee of the PRI to my office helped organize a popular place to preach by Bando Solemn declaration of Governor-Elect Prof . Antonio Barbosa Heldt.

For instructions de la dirigencia estatal del P.R.I., por mi conducto, fueron invitados a participar los aspirantes a la candidatura del partido a la Presidencia Municipal. En ese contexto de unidad e inclusión asistieron José Antonio Covarrubias Rodríguez, Jorge Pérez Ochoa, Salvador Mora Nolasco, Isaac Ramírez Delgado, Lino Corona Pérez y Rafael Aguilar Villalvazo.

Así, ese domingo 22 de julio, la comitiva inició a las diez de la mañana en el ya demolido edificio sede del Cabildo y recorrió los cuatro puntos cardinales del jardín principal y en cada esquina, el Secretario del Ayuntamiento Gustavo Sotomayor de la Mora dio lectura al referido Decreto. El acompañamiento en el que también participaron la mayoría local leaders of social and productive sectors was headed by Prof. J. Mayor Felix Delgado Velázquez.

for things that happened, the month of September 1973 was a period of extreme contrasts. Let's recall of some of them: The first day prior to the third report of President Luis Echeverria Alvarez was installed XLIX Federal Legislature that were part of our state, Daniel A. Members Moreno Diaz for the first district and Jorge Armando Gaitan Gudiño per second.

As we approached the sixth report of government of Don Pablo Silva García no one imagined the tragic events in the coming days. Indeed, local and national news, from less to more, they began to realize the polarization of Chilean society, which ended on September 11 with the coup of Augusto Pinochet and the tragic death of President Salvador Allende who committed suicide after the bombing that stood at the Mint. In particular, struck me what happened and I had the pleasure of knowing him personally at a meeting with young people held in the city of Guadalajara, Jalisco, on December 2, 1972.

On top of all evils, on the eve of the definitions of the candidates for mayor, September 18, 1973, which began at noon as a rumor, later confirmed in "a bullet is deprived of life, the governor-elect Antonio Barbosa Heldt. The next day, the press published a letter addressed to Mr. Mario Moya Palencia, Secretary of the Interior, which literally said

"... All my desire to serve Colima, which became apparent during the political campaign that I took reach out to the governorship of that organization have been frustrated due to my health began to deteriorate in recent weeks, the way you composed when I asked permission to leave the country and taken to a hospital.

Nothing has been giving the kidney infection and as a result my morale has suffered a sharp decline to the point that I have more than two months without sleep.

What to do with problems as serious as my health and lack of proven almost impossible to rescue her. Colima need a ruler healthy and for that reason the dynamism needed to undertake major actions recommended to the undersigned by the President Echeverria and already included in my next government program started. So I think the only solution to this situation as a crossroads that is presented by circumstances beyond my desire is my voluntary elimination, in order to make room for who in the prime of their health Colima can do what the state requires for its progress. Thank

licensed by the support and encouragement at all times received from you and your concerns so he could regain my health. Failed. I apologize for the harm caused to the momentary political situation in Colima and tranquility, but it is better that this happened sooner than later. His friend and server much appreciated. Antonio Barbosa Heldt ... "(concludes the appointment of newspaper clippings made by the author of this column.)

On September 19 we attended the funeral ceremony which took place in the Chamber of H. State Congress that was located in the ground floor of the Government Palace, after which the funeral procession went to the municipal cemetery. The funeral of Don Antonio Barbosa Heldt were led by Governor Pablo Silva García and Secretary of Education Don Victor Bravo Ahuja attended the representation of President Echeverría.

Parallel to the facts outlined here, on Sunday 23 September, laid the foundation stone of the new "Film Armory, which was located in front of the garden in what is now the multipurpose room. There I met Waldo Viramontes, manager of the "Circuito Montes" and the designer of the work, engineer Leopoldo Jimenez Morfin.

On Monday 24, following a whirlwind visit to Mexico City Governor Pablo Silva García was verified a meeting at the offices of the steering committee of the PRI state where they were presented as the new CEO of CEN Senator Agustín Soto Ruiz and Prof subdelegado . Lorenzo Silva Chacón. That afternoon the news broke that the mayor of Colima licensed Noriega Arturo Pizano be the candidate for Governor and the first of November would take over as Acting Governor Leonel Ramírez García.

After publishing the notice, at six o'clock in the afternoon of Thursday October 11, 1973 leading a spirited contingent concur the offices of the PRI state sectors and on behalf of the party in Armory I had the honor to request the registration of Salvador Mora Nolasco as our candidate for the Presidency Council. That same night, at a meeting chaired by the CEO and President of the party Senator Soto and Jaime Ruiz Agustin Casillas attended Salvador Enriquez Mora Nolasco and the reporter of this column. The purpose was to integrate the formula of candidates for City Council.

no major problems the return was composed as follows: Mayor candidate Salvador Nolasco Mora, deputy Celedonio Alvarez Torres. Rulers: the ejido "El Pelillo" Zachary Amador Torres substitute Lino Pérez Corona, second munícipe J. Jesus Vaca Farías, leader of the tenants of the municipal market, deputy J. Manzo Félix Llorente, General Secretary of the Armory Student Cultural Association (Acea), third José Negrete Sanchez, president of the Brotherhood of Juarez curator, deputy Pedro González Santacruz, secretary general of the union of the CROM-affiliated shippers and fourth Palos Sebastián Rodríguez , a leader of the copreros, affiliated to the CTM and substitute Eduardo Hernández Meraz, bricklayers union leader (CTM).

In the following days developed very stressful days, because, well concurrent political campaigns for governor and council, in a span of five weeks, we checked two elections. Elections for city councils were held on Sunday November 18 and overtime for governor on December 23.

The State Election Commission was responsible for the preparation and conduct of special election was presided by the licensed Isidoro Morales and Secretary Conrado Fernández Rubio Cárdenas. The Municipal Election Commission Armory was built in the following order: President Miguel Juárez Alcantar, Registrar J. Jesus Munguia Galindo; Vocal: Ignacio Gonzalez Diego. Substitutes: Jose Luis Cardenas Zamora, Antonio Bustos Ivonne Araujo and Efrain Perez Ochoa.

The ten municipalities of the State took possession on 31 December and the Governor Noriega on January Pizano. For the second time the Club de Leones Armory is located at Calle Chihuahua No. 16, was the setting for the swearing-in and installation of the third City Hall. A solemn session attended by graduates Salvador Alcaraz Ortega and Mario Rivera Valdez, the former acting governor representing Dr. Leonel Ramírez García and the second governor-elect Mr. Noriega Arturo Pizano.

On January 2, 1974, President Salvador Mora Municipal Nolasco, with the approval of Cabildo reported the following appointments: City Clerk Miguel Chavez Michel, Treasurer, Honorato Ramirez Cervantes, Director of Public Works and Services architect Juan Jose Reyes Araujo, Director of Civic Action, Social, Cultural and Sports, Professor Ruben Tinoco Alcantara Commander Arnold Police Cobián Andrade, manager of the Civil Registry office Eduardo Michel Fontana, Municipal Market Management Carlota Alvarez Mendez won Inspector Sergio Perez Ochoa, head of the Office of Recruitment and Federal Register of Electors Miguel Alcantar Juarez, Chairperson of the H. Municipal Board Cuyutlán Ochoa Ignacio de la Madrid.

In this as in the previous decade, all taxes including property taxes and business income charged by the state and federal governments and their municipalities received only minor shares. In addition, the State Legislature approved its annual budget expenditures. After then, the economic resources of the communes were scarce and many times not even enough to cover payroll. In this context, the majority of the public work was carried out by federal or state governments. Thus, all local governments who wanted to transcend had to contrive to encourage citizen participation and / or other government agencies to manage works and public services demanded by society.

Thus, in this triennium, with the participation of beneficiaries, among other works include the construction of taps and cobbled street in the town of Puerto Angel Cuyutlán and arteries throughout the first frame of the municipal including Avenue Sonora Mexico and then. Also be extended in two central medians blocks national highway in eastern and western ends up where they arrive today. Also, thanks to the efforts of the Mayor was authorized and built the Guild Technical High Juárez. For its part, the state government completed the paving Brotherhood of the road - Juarez Lopez corner.

With the central aim of reviving the economy Cuyutlán and based on the old road (gap) that connected to the spa with Manzanillo and that since the late nineteenth century was passing lateral to the railroad tracks, passing through other , for the settlements of The Plum, Tepalcates y Campos, the Governor proposed to Pizano Noriega was built by the dune a road to which a short denominábamos Cuyutlán way to Manzanillo. This project, largely supported by Deputy Armin Meza Núñez was approved by the head of the executive and work began immediately. The current highway to Manzanillo, on the stretch of the toll booth Cuyutlán the road overpass that is located before the bridge of sherds, was built on the road that built the Governor Noriega Pizano.

In my humble opinion, the most important work of Salvador Mora Nolasco is the construction of the road to Coalatilla Armory. I know, that was started with his own pocket, then got machinery Plan "Benito Juárez" and Congress authorized a fee basis for workers and payment of fuel from the Town Hall. Finally, Governor Arturo Noriega agreed that the Local Roads Board placed the dirt. Many years later he achieved the desired paving.

It is worthwhile to mention that during this administration were in the cabinet the following changes: in the first months, Pedro Guardado replaced in the Police Cobián Don Arnold Andrade.

In the second year, the resignation of the Director of Public Works and Services was appointed Alderman J. Jesus Vaca Farias. Without delay, Mr. Vaca asked to separate from the license fee of communes and once it was approved, his deputy, Mr. J. Manzo Félix Llorente became part of the Cabildo.

In the last third, Mariano Michel Ortega was supplied in the Treasury to Honorato Ramirez Cervantes and myself, gave the City Secretary Don Sergio Arias Luna.

MICHEL *

With office number 160 dated on March 10 of 1975, H. Constitutional Town Hall Armory through its president Don Salvador Nolasco Mora and myself with the character of secretary, request the H. State Congress holding a solemn meeting in the municipal capital to commemorate the founding of our people. The request was approved on April 4 that year. Corresponded to the clerk of the Congress Prof. Mario Enriquez Casillas and the author of this column coordinate to organize the logistics of the event.

So, on Tuesday, April 29, 1975, after twelve hours and thirty minutes, then "Movie Armory," said an official site for this purpose, there was the solemn session of H. State Congress to commemorate the fortieth anniversary of the elevation to the status of the settlement of Armory Village. However the day and time, the seats of the property were insufficient to install the distinguished gathering, comprising among others, guests of the ten municipalities of the state, former mayors and H. Municipal Board, local authorities, farmer leaders, farmers, entrepreneurs and their early descendants domiciled.

led the meeting his deputy president Pedro Polanco Montero, supported by the Deputy Secretary Agustín and Mercedes González García Villalobos Silva. Also present were Mr Ismael Aguayo Figueroa, Jorge Salazar Rodriguez Ramón Núñez Castañeda Meza Bazavilvazo and Armin. With Gov Noriega Arturo Pizano attended by the Secretary General of Government lawyer Miguel Gómez Guerra Morales. He also presided over Mr. Rafael Trejo Ochoa, President of the Supreme Court and Mayor Don Salvador Nolasco Mora.

We were three official speakers. Armin Rep. Meza Núñez introduced the grounds, among other insights, he said the interest of legislators hold sessions outside the parliamentary precincts to effect close to the people through commemorative events and civic historical facts. By invitation del Congreso, el profesor Juan Oseguera Velázquez dirigió un elocuente discurso referente a la historia de Armería. Finalmente, me correspondió el alto honor de agradecer a los legisladores la distinción efectuada a nuestra comunidad y con la representación del honorable cabildo me permití solicitar que nuestro pueblo fuera elevado a la categoría se ciudad.

Por el valioso caudal de datos que contiene y en homenaje al maestro Juan Oseguera Velázquez, en dos partes, trascribo textualmente su discurso:

“…Señoras y señores. Hoy, hace 40 años, el H. congreso del Estado de Colima, elevó a la categoría de pueblo, la antigua hacienda de Armería donde la geografía has witnessed the development of primitive cultures, events of the conquest, the colonial, independence, reform and the Mexican Revolution.

We have gathered here to celebrate this historic event, knowing that the birth of a people, has a long gestation. The Armory strengthens its authentic roots of our aboriginal races for over time, leaving shaping up to have a genuine and distinctive appearance, between the coastal towns of western Mexico.

Armory is not a town but has a personality and a unique history and as the tree that feeds multiple and strong currents, has already a present full of achievements and future flattering.

Ancient history draws Armory, as the place where they were detained Otomíes table coming from the Central, other tribes from the south. Evidence of what this area was suitable for Aboriginal people, from the stage of fishermen and gatherers to sedentary peoples, is the large number of tombs and pottery extracted from its soil, which has merited scientific study and their classification as " Armory period (and Colima) "between 850 and 1250, highlighting its importance the so-called" complex Periquillo ", from 1250 to 1521, relating them, the first to culture Periquillo Toltec and of the Mexica.

During the conquest, the inhabitants must join the ranks of the warring Tecos, who fell fighting heroically in Alima and proper "Tecomán palenque", defending the lordship of Colima in 1523.

After founding the original Caxitlán Villa de Colima, Gonzalo de Sandoval conqueror goes through here and anchorages located Salagua Santiago, from 1535 to Hernán Cortés used for expeditions to the Californias. It was from those years, the transitional phase of the Spaniards for their maritime adventures in search of the Amazons, conquer more peoples or fight the pirates, that during the colonial incursion in these latitudes. Indians also passed, but these generally as porters, especially when they took the rigging, anchors and harness to build the ships that sailed the developed Urdaneta and Legazpi, the conquest of the Philippines in 1564.

An old one of this area, is found in the "Value" of Mr. Lebron de Quinones, 1554, when he mentions Cuyutlán place of great tradition, as a producer of salt from the time pre-Conquest and the open sea resort of all times. Already at the dawn of independence and making your stay as parish priest of the town of Colima in 1792, Hidalgo was recreated by visiting said spa.

The struggle of man to dominate the middle, trying to solve the problem posed by the then mighty river Armory, starts with the construction of a bridge in 1850, which was razed the following year. Years later they built another bridge with the same results. In 1889 the railroad was completed, which was likewise destroyed by the great avenue that led to the cyclone in 1906, but then was rebuilt to service to date. The road bridge was opened in 1954, was destroyed by the cyclone in 1959 and was put back into service in 1962.

The waters of the river tried to exploit as a means of river transport beginning the construction of a canal in 1874, to prosecute the lagoon Cuyutlán. This work is not done, however it worked from 1871, the small steamer "Colima", which sailed 36 miles across the lagoon, between Manzanillo and Cuyutlancillo, suspended the service in 1882, the opening of the railway section to Armory.

Another fantastic project, is published by the governor J. Trinidad Alamillo (1911-1913), to drain the pond and plant Cuyutlán 10 million coconut palms.

communication with Manzanillo existed until 1908, when President Diaz opened the railroad, the mule by the legendary Camino Real de Colima "charted in the south shore of the lake, wading streams, crossed the river along the right bank until Caxitlán Inn, the Hacienda del Rosario and continue north on the slope of Jala to Coquimatlán and Colima, to follow the interior.

The land passed from the parcel to the Jesuits, then bought by the Conde de Regla Don Pedro Romero de Terreros and 1807, Cuyutlán and Stay of the Armory, was his granddaughter, the Marquise de Herrera. Finally, early this century belonged to Doña Isaura Vidriales and then followed the distribution ejido.

Another property related to the history and geography this place is San Andrés Periquillo with similar origin, but for 1875 and until 1903, was owned by General merited Angel Martinez, who planted in Santa Rosa's first coconut palm garden. Happened in that year at the hands of three American, Industrial and Agricultural Society of Paso del Rio, SA to evade constitutional requirements. There was promoted Herford cattle ranching in 1910, Italian immigrants brought to plant coconut palms contract. They were Mr. Stephano Gherzi, Octavio Machette, Reinaldo Gualino, Juan Mantelero, Eugenio Bellido, Santiago Antongniotti, Albino Copy and others. Gherzi intrigued and eliminated his countrymen running as administrator general, then claiming losses during the revolution, persuaded the court awarded in his favor the estate, which belonged to the heirs of Dr. Alberto J. Oschener.

The use made of this farm Mr. Gherzi, was based on the exploitation of man, not the land. Occidental joined the alleged plot of land, SCPA, and obtained a grant of inalienability livestock for 25 years, from 1943, to continue to evade the land law for more than four decades. There prevailed the old Diaz system of the company store, pawn acasillados and white guards, the monotony of work from sun to sun, rustic tables misery cabins, with children emaciated, malnourished, sick, victims of malaria.

was land distribution that marked the beginning of the progress of this coastal plain, first founded the suburbs Cuyutlán and Armory in 1925, the Independence in 1929, receiving its funding until 1931. The nap and New Cuyutlán, dating from 1952 and 1959 respectively. Found linked to the history of these groups, among others, the names of Leonardo Jaramillo, Rosendo Corona, Rafael Aguilar, Victor Mora, Jose Rios, Eleno Amador, Francisco Andrade and Maria Ventura Ruelas. I believe that few people of Mexico as this where there are five ejidos. We also judge that not many communities, which are conjugated as here, the physiographic and human factors, ie, have great natural resources: soil privileged adequate surface water and ecology, but especially the human element, the field man, ready to conquer and change the environment Geographically, the land planted with perennial crops, with credit extended by the federal government. In

Periquillo as part of the joke that made the law the estate formed a white ejido in 1939, with 26 farmers who eventually were released. It fell in 1958, the federal deputy Roberto Pizano Saucedo, raising the urgent need to share such large estates, the Presidential candidate Adolfo Lopez Mateos, the reception he taxed the people of Manzanillo. The promise was there, served as the President, by issuing the decree of December 6, 1960, declaring null and void agreements on the division simulated inalienability, pointing to the respective units, the convenience to explore collectively the New Center Population Brotherhood of Juarez, with 19.212 acres for 780 ejidatarios, grouped in 15 local credit societies.

remains there as a cancer and a challenge to land reform, the problem of Rincon de Lopez, a typical act of skydiving, the H. City Council tried to legalize Coquimatlán to support Undeveloped land law, but after 14 years, has not been possible to regularize the possession, originated as a protest against the existence of a large estate simulated problem that caused the loss of many lives.

The increase of population of this area was parallel to the integration of the suburbs. In the estate of Armory, which in 1921 was only 5 farms with 40 people by 1930 rose to 178 in 1936 totaled 500 thousand in 1950 were three thousand 572, ceased in 1960 four thousand 852 and in 1970 arrived at ten 513 billion is estimated that to date exceed fifteen thousand inhabitants. However, the cause that determined the increase in population was due to neighbors Cuyutlán, during the tsunami of 22 June 1932, they came to reside at this place, being necessary in 1934, planning what would be the town armory, the local Congress issued the decree of April 29, 1935 ... "

continue next Sunday ...

(2) Armory, Pueblo Forged by an indefatigable defender

(Second and last part)

Miguel Chavez MICHEL *

In my previous collaboration (Sunday February 24 this year), I play the first part of the speech by Juan Oseguera Velázquez at the solemn session of H. State Congress which took place on April 29, 1975 in the then "Cinema Armory," said the official exhibition to commemorate the fortieth anniversary of the elevation to the people of the hamlet of Armory and then today, in its report, lines down, share the second and last part:

"... The foundation of a people, represents a compromise and requires the collaboration of their inhabitants. It is understood and managed con creces aquí. Muchos de ustedes, sus progenitores y algunos ciudadanos distinguidos que ya rindieron su tributo a la tierra que hicieron fructificar, trabajaron con entusiasmo ejemplar a través de la junta de mejoras materiales. Nos merece especial mención lo realizado inicialmente, pues a pesar de que fueron obras modestas, en esos años significaban una importante inversión, tanto para los vecinos que vivían en condiciones económicas difíciles, como para las autoridades que ejercían exiguos presupuestos.

Así se construyó la primera escuela en (1937), en la cual trabajaron los educadores colimenses Ricardo Guzmán Nava, Horacio Díaz Virgen y José Juárez Martínez, con el enthusiastic teachers who once terrorized rural, working morning, noon and night, dedicating Saturday to social work in the community. Followed by the introduction of the green pond water (1939), the installation of a small plant of light and the arrangement of the garden (1942), paved streets and urbanization, building for municipal offices and many classrooms for schoolchildren.

Later, with the help of state and federal government work continued, telling the time with most utilities, except major drainage. Noted for their spirit of collaboration: Jesus Covarrubias, Eduardo Michel, Luis Gomez, Leonardo Jaramillo, Felipe Ramirez, Primitivo Guerra, Crispin Campos, Apolonio Maravilla, Manuel Muñoz, Maria Villalvazo and Daniel Silva, both deceased.

In 1958, in my capacity XXXVIII played the Legislature, I was pleased to present an initiative aimed at elevating the status of municipality in this area Armory. To support this motion, figures showed its economic and concluded by stating that unlike other parts of the state, who owe their progress especially to investors from around the country, the rise of Armory, is the product of effort ejido groups and some farmers, who have fought tenaciously from For many years, opening new lands for cultivation in inhospitable places, and building a people and a heritage for Colima and Mexico. They have joined forces to overcome the harsh environment and make the Armory, one of the most important areas of economic life of the State, grant it, the condition of municipality, not an act funny or sympathetic, is smooth and simply a right action, which will benefit the region and public services in general, as can be seen with greater efficiency and breadth, to be given the opportunity to the natives, manage and lead with enthusiasm and collaborative spirit that characterized.

This project became a reality, with the issuance of the decree 119 of May 26, 1967, and thus the youngest of the municipalities of Colima, from the first of January 1968, began its institutional life. We will not have been wrong, since the objectives are being met, as their limited budgets allow for their multiple needs. Since then have been elected as mayor of DC. Rosalio González Espinosa, Prof. Felix Delgado Velazquez and Mr. Salvador Mora current Nolasco.

The small property, who has worked in harmony with the ejido, is represented by a select group of farmers, with long-established and affection in this area. Among them for their spirit of enterprise, agricultural and industrial branches Don Pascual Moreno Barreto, who in this year, will the nursing service "Maria Luisa Barreto de Moreno, with an investment of two and a half million pesos , to be a gas station attached, in order to ensure its future revenue performance.

prospects of this city are encouraging, their agricultural production is expanding and technologically advanced farms, in the cultural aspect, in addition to three high schools, one agricultural technique in Brotherhood of Juárez, will soon realize the presidential building and offer establish school. Tourism continues to drive, thanks to the exceptional beaches and Cuyutlán Paradise. Complement the facilities provided there will be an interesting project consisting of a trailer ejido-park, community center, hotel, boats and boat tours along the canal, between the two resorts, for which Indeco-Colima, and has authorized initially six million pesos.

The Federal Delegation Management and Tourism, is planning the refurbishment of a camping area, with services in an organized, popular tourism camp, but what definitely will encourage the development of this important industry in this area, the road will coast, which is programmed with vision Mr. Noriega Governor Arturo Pizano, with an area of \u200b\u200b32 km between Cuyutlán and Campos. These projects bring as a logical consequence of the spas remodeling and expansion of tourist services, in accordance with a program of state and regional work.

We are outlining a chronic and making an assessment of a people who in their forty years of existence, it points the way of material progress and transmitted to us because it's in the atmosphere, the desire to overcome his studious youth. This time of analysis, of its institutional life, it is desirable to externalize some views and become somewhat repetitive, the repeated statements of Mr. President Luis Echeverria, inviting us to dialogue and constructive criticism, and stressing the need to raise awareness and to operate a change of mindset in Mexico, to we are men and women of our time.

If you look at the picture of the municipal government, we see that positive result the effort made by HH. Councils in the body, comprising individuals wishing to make a positive mark on their performance. It is also significant that most of the Secretaries of those communities, are young and capable professionals.

believe that the role of mayors gentlemen, should be primarily promotional, trying to coordinate all actions within their municipality, in this moment the federal government in a special way, is channeling larger resources to promote rural development and prevent further flow of migrants to the citizens, causing serious problems and so-called shantytowns. So we read with pleasure the news of the initiative launched in this regard, the dynamic mayor tecomense J. Concepción Rodríguez Ramírez. So we also see with sympathy, as local gentlemen have implemented a new way to serve their constituents, going to communities and imbued with their problems.

should serve as an example, the new national trend that has been established in the public and is necessary to interpret the thinking and system dynamics. We live in difficult times, which require adequate and timely solutions. As people of limited financial resources, we need to prioritize our needs and that public investments are channeled mainly to solve the problems of life, further expanding the basic infrastructure that fosters the creation of new jobs to combat under-employment. As part of the dynamics of the system, implementing reform management, including decentralization, creation of new agencies, modernize and streamline work procedures, trying to fight the bureaucracy. But that requires a spirit of service and a humanistic attitude. To complement this reform and to improve the technical, cultural and professional public servants, we have initiated in Colima, a series of activities sponsored by the Division of cultural action and ISSSTE, waiting for the understanding and encouragement of workers and owners of premises , so that these benefits are fully exploited, which gives the federal government bureaucracy in general.

Finally we must consider that this conclusion is not just a meeting to remember historical facts and make a gloss on what has been achieved, but we all make an order to mimic the positive experiences and work with greater vigor, to this county and all municipalities Colima, go forward at the pace of national development. Armory is a village now, but it deserves as a city, this is a stimulus to His Excellency the Governor Mr. Noriega Pizano and XLIV deputies in the constitutional legislature can and should give. This we say, certain that the people of this county, redouble their efforts to place between the cities, where urban planning at the service of man and present a pleasant appearance and strangers.

Citizens, to the joy that overwhelms us today as we celebrate the fortieth anniversary of the young people, shook the feelings that unite us, lavishing our effort and our action, to be fruitful and lead to progress Armory, Colima and Mexico .... "(concludes the transcript of the document read by the author). Marginal note: "With affection for the young and noble gentleman friend Miguel Chavez Michel. Armory, Col. April 29, 1975. " Category. Juan Oseguera Velázquez.

As you can see, in life, the master Juan Oseguera Velázquez was one of the painstaking researchers who studied and wrote about our local history. In addition to personally meet and interact with most of the framers of our people, identified with them and guided in their struggle to Armory was elevated to the status of municipality.

Indeed, the September 5, 1958, the master Juan Oseguera Velázquez, in his capacity as first deputy for the local district (Colima) filed with the H. State Congress the first initiative aimed at elevating the city to the then village of Armory. This proposal, duly supported and substantiated by circumstantial events (last days of the legislature) did not reach the consensus needed to achieve the aforementioned purpose. At that time, was governor of the state architect engineer Rodolfo Chavez Carrillo (1955 - 1961) and Mayor of Manzanillo Don Javier Mata Vargas (1956-1958). The XXXVIII Legislature (1955-1958) was composed, in addition to Professor Juan Oseguera Velázquez, Ramón Serrano by Members García, Adolfo Cárdenas Cortés, Carlos Anzar García, Pedro Cueva Chavez, Jose Macias Mejia and Málaga Herminio Rojas. Chief Clerk of the Congress: Professor Antonio Cárdenas Sandoval.

Before this event, our elders, folded away with renewed enthusiasm continued to work until the cherished aim of achieving a municipality. Aspiration that came true, as noted above lines, on May 26, 1967, issued the decree number 119. Among the principal architects of this commendable effort, always assisted and advised by the teacher Oseguera Velázquez, I remember with gratitude, as Fr. Juan Hernández León, presidents of the Municipal Board of Armory, Valente Delgado Jiménez, Francisco Andrade Colmenares, Crispin Campos Enciso, J. Jesus Vaca Michel Farias and Eusebio Rincon. Similarly, among other farmers and traders, farm leaders participated Rafael Aguilar Villalvazo, Rosalio Gonzalez Espinosa Corona Lino Perez, Isaac Jaramillo Messina, Eleno Amador Andrade, Emilio Pérez Sandoval, Mauricio Rodriguez and Simón Contreras Leal Sanchez.
