ages and sizes, who were members of

building was taken over recently by
the War Camp Community Service for
Soldiers club, declaring themselves
the victims of injustice which they
have not been able to have corrected
themselves, have banded together, Sc
cured an attorney and inaugurated a
fight for their rights. Their complaint
is that none OF their memberships in
the 7. M. C. A. had expired when the
building was taken over; that some OF
them had only recently been renewed,
and that they are entitled to rebates
for the amount of unexpired member
ships, since they are denied all priv
ileges of the building.
They appealed to Attorney Stephen
Pace, declaring that they wanted what
money was due them so that they
could start an independent boys club.
He declared their claims appeared just
and assured them that he would get
their money for them. Following which
he began negotiations with T. o. Mar
shall, receiver for the Y. M. C. A., and
Frank ]. Payne, who was building
manager, to obtain a refund. He stat
ed subsequently that he was sure he
would be able to get for the boys the
amount due each.
DR.. Starratt, secretary for the w. C.
G. s. here stated today that when the
building was taken over on lease by
his organization it did not assume any
liability for unexpired memberships.

 MEXICAN QUESTION

WASHINGTON, March 11-Edward L. Doheney of Los Angeles has cabled the state department from London. denying that he or any of his associates made or authorized any statement at Halifax, before their departure over seas, that the purpose of their visit was to place the Mexican oil situation before the peace conference MT. Do heny said he never hand any intention of bringing this or any other question before the conference.
 All that we shall ask" said his ca blegram, made public today at the de partment, lis the privilege of confer ring privately with American repre- sentativeS in regard to certain general suggestions which would be applicable to American countries, concerning the rights of foreigners therein, and We believe that those questions, if adopted by the league of nations. would tend to reduce international friction. Should this privilege be denied us, we shall not press the matter"
 MT. Doheney, who is the president of one of the largest American owned oil companies in Mexico, and Frederick R. Kellogg were given passports by the state department several weeks ago. After the statement attributed to MT. Doheney at Halifax was published, Acting Secretary Polk announced that in applying for the passport MT. De- heney had informed the department that his trip abroad was solely for the purpose of attending to the business affairs of his company
 Later MT. Polk cabled MT. Doheny asking for a statement for the informa- tion of the department and the cable gram made public today was the reply.

 BE IRISH PROVINCE

NEW YORK, March 1.-The will of Dr. Thomas Addison Emmett, grand nephew of Robert Emmett, the Irish patriot, which was filed in the surro- gates court today, disposes of an estate valued at s1,000,000. The bulk of the estate is divided among his three chil- dren, John Duncan Emmett of this city. Kathleen Erin Emmett of Oxford, Eng land, and Robert Emmett of London, England, and his granddaughter, Miss Margaret Harris of this city, with whom he lived.
 A large collection of antiques and curio objects relating to Ireland is be- Queathed to his son Robert Emmett, with the request that it be kept intact by his descendants" until such time as Ireland shall obtain local self govern ment.' Dr. Emmett, commenting on the Irish question in his will said:
 Intellectually, God has favored the Irish people as individuals, and scat tered them over the world at large. No other race has done more for the devel . opment and happiness of other people Comparatively, England is in the de- crepitude of old age and living on the wealth of other people, while Ireland after regeneration, will have yet to gain the vigor of youth, and in justice, Eng land must sometime become an Irish ' province. This belief is a family in | heritance."

CARRAVzA VIOLATES
 AGREEMENT WITH J. $.

WASHINGTON, March H. AL though President Carranza had agreed with the United States authorities to take no further action affecting foreign oil interests in Mexico, until the Mexi- can congress could act on the new oil law, introduced some weeks ago, a de- cree has been issued at Mexico City directing that the royalty taxes" on oil produced in January and February be paid immediately.
 Officials here said today that this decree might result in the reopening of the whole question of the rights of the foreign companies. which have been the subject of at least two notes from the American government and a vigorous protest from Great Britain, France and The Netherlands. Even now one of the American notes under date of last De- cember 2S. remains unanswered.
 When President Carranza issued his first decree, declaring all oil lands state property, and requiring foreign companies to pay royalty taxes" the American government protested ener- getically. The companies refused sto pay the taxes on the ground that to do so would admit government ownership of petroleum, and they began actions in the Mexican courts looking to per- manent relief.
