BORDER
Mexican Members Of Com
mission Favor Establish
ment Neutral ConstabuIaly
to Patrol International Line

New London, Conn, Sept a.
Establishment of q neutral constabu-
larry along the border was strongly
urged by the Mexicans here today In
the conference Of the joint American
Mexican commission endeavoring to
reach q solution Of the problsms of
Mexico.
Under this system the patrolling
force would be non-military, but un-
der discipline as strict as that OBJ
served in any army. They would
have large powers in patrolling the
border and in general would be an
Organization similar to the Mexican
rurales or the Texas rangers.
The commissioners reached no
agreement ON the suggestion, mas
much as it is only one OF several
ideas. but the Mexicans laid parti-
cular stress on it. Legal questions
we're also taken up today. The Mex
leans said they had not abr0gatsd
the provisions of the constitution and
the legal codes, but merely suspend
ed them, and that new -civil courts
system was now being Instituted.
J New London. Conn.,, Sept. IL
Steps to relieve any unfair burdens
in Mexican taxation of foreign owned
property appeared likely to result
from the conference today between
American and Mexican commissioners
here. At the same time the escommis-
sioners drew nearer to a concrete pro-
position for withdrawing American
forces from Mexico and patrolling the
BOUNDARY.
During the morning session today
the joint commission discussed taxes.
The Mexicans said frankly there is NO
intent to place premium on enter
prise. and the American commission
ers agreed there is an effort to en-
courage development Of revenues for
the government while at the same
time promoting Industrial growth.
General Bliss counseled the Amer
lean commissioners this afternoon on
withdrawal and border patrol ques-
tions. From his suggestions plan
for withdrawing the troops in the
near future and re-arranging the bor-
der patrol will develop.
The lobbyist group continues to
grow about the commissioners daily.
Letters from interests" protesting
and suggesting. come in stacks. Some
lobbyists may be heard by the COM
missioners-butp probably not.
The presence Of J. P. iMorgan's
