MEXICO INSIST UPON ENFORCING
 NEW O| DECREE
Reply to British Note is Regard ed as Adding to Obnoxious Features-Af1ects Interests of Americans Also.

Washington, Aug. l4.-So far from mitigating the severity of the orig ;nol decree of February 27 last, inn nosing new taxes and restrictions mon the foreign owners and opera tors of oil properties in Mexico, in tbe opinion of officials here, the reply of the Mexican government to the British protest against that decree has only added to it's obnoxious nature. Although Secretary Aguilar's note is directed to the British government, it is said that it's substance is of equal applicatjon to the American oil in- terests.
 Some time ago American interests with the knowledge and sympathetic support of the state department sent representatives to Mexico with the purpose of arriving at an amicable adjustment of the grave issues aris- ing from the dtermination of the Mexican government to enforce this new oil decree It was hoped that in this unofficial way, if the Mexican government was disposed to be at all fair in its treatment of the Ameri- cans who had invested so heavily in the development of the Mexican oil properties it would be possible to ar range a new scale of taxation that should be profitable to the MeXicans without being absolutely confiscatory,
 Following dlscouragng reports from these personal representatives of the oil interests the letter of Sec retary Aguilar in answer to the Brit ish protest is taken as conclusive evil dence that the Mexican government has not in any degree charged it's original purpose to carry out the de- cree, not only as to English proper ues but as to American and all other foreign interests.
 Regarding the contention in the Mexican note that the decree applies equally to MeXicans as well as to for egners, 1t is pointed out that this is only technically true, because, as a matter of fact, nearly all the oil prop ertes are foreign-owned and Mexi- cans consequently are unaffected by 'ne harshness of the decree, which amounts to 100 per cent increase in 'ne tax besides containing features nat look to be actual confscatory of large proportion of the foreign owned oil lands.

DOM|NENT POSTS ARE TAKEN FROM
 FOE BY FRENCH
Progress, However. is Now Com paratively Slow on South End of .Line-RibecOurt Captured by the French.

With the French Army in France. Aug. 14.-French forces fighting for the key positions of the Thescourt massif and the St. Claude and Ecou- vilion farms, are progressing slowly. North of Gury, where the Germans are installed in the old French trench es of 1914, they have gained no ground. The enemy here in a lucky movement tumbled into ready made fortified positions.
 As the enemy retreats he is pick ing up his slow moving material and IS accommodating an increasing num- Der of guns and quantities of mun- tions. The French in advancing have tended to outstrip their artillery and there are no tanks to assist the in fantry.
 The French are advancing against the line which is thinly held but which is brstling with machine guns. and are fighting in the atmosphere of mustard gas. Yet they have wrested dominant positions on the battle field from the enemy.

Sugar Allotment Increased.

Owing to the improved condi'
tion of the sugar supply, the al.
lotment has been increased to
three pounds per person per
month. The merchants of the
county are hereby authorized to
sell to their customers not to be
exceed three pounds for each
member of the family, during the
month of November.
One half months supply may
be sold at time. In other words,
each merchant may sell to his Gus.
toners at one time. if desired
enough sugar to make up the full
three pounds per member of the
customers family, when added
to what the customer has already
purchased in November.
The counter record should be
kept as before, and such changes
made as are necessary to show
clearly the increased allotment
and the amount sold to each
customer.
Don't forget that there is still
a great need for saving sugar as
we'll as all other food.
