NEW HIGH TAX
ON MEXICO OIL
Firm but Friendly Repre-
sentations Made to Car
rama Government
BACKED BY GREAT BRITAIN
Note Also Objects to Donation
alization" of Foreign Compa-
nies by First Chiefs Orders
WASHINGTON. June 25.

Firm but friendly representations TO Mex
ico against new high taxes in the Tampico
oil fields and other representations against
the so-called Decentralization" Of foreign
companies have been made to the Carranza
Government by the United States Govern
ment IL was.learned today
Great Britain il understood to have Sec
onded the representations against the oil
taxes though whether she took the course
Of sending a note to Carranza is not known.
The taxation representations. entirely
friendly in tone. but quite insistent upon
change seek to lower taxes which many
Oh men now regard as almost conhscatory.
The other representations are directed
against the Carranza decree compelling all
foreign companies to operate under Mexican
charter, thus taking them out from under
the protection Of their own governments
Carranza's position is known to be that
the oil taxes will furnish considerable money
TO run his government but the American
and British Governments hold that with
their large drafts of oil for navy and air
service they are entitled TO a greater con-
slderation than has thus far been shown
them.
The new tax law goes into effect July
10. Foreign operators, including Ameri-
cans, will probably pay their taxes under
protest, relying on the nope ana peleI lnat
General Carranza will be reasonable and
make notifications
Unknown to Carranza. IL was learned to-
day. the German consul in the Tuxpam dis
trict has been stirring up trouble. Some
disturbances have occurred, but these have
not been sufficient to cause any particular
alarm in government circles. Oil has been
coming out freely at the rate of hundreds
OF thousands Of barrels a day.
Meantime there is an effort on the part
OF some government authorities to have
California oil reserves opened up to meet
Increasing needs for crude oil.
The navy maintains it's reserve should be
kept intact; the Interior Department feels
that Americas needs al present, especially
for her proposed airplane fleet, are such that
freeing of supplies would be advisable.
