MEXICO CONCENTRATES
AMENDING MINING LAWS

Mexico City, Aug. PA project is
under consideration in the department
of mines for amending the laws re-

instead of being the sole property of
owners as at present oil and coal de-
posits may be appropriated as is the
case with lands containing metals 1t
is suggested that the owners of lands
with coal and oil may be compensated
by a royalty on the value of the pro-
ducts extracted. The matter is of gen
eral interest and lawyers are likely to
differ as to the constitutiOnality of the
proposed change.
