in exchange for the rights and titles which they already had bought and paid for, and which they had ac- quired not from the Government through concessions, but from pri- vate land owners. whose title to the petroleum was unquestioned.
 If the Mexican Government could bring about this situation, and en- force either the one consequence or the other, the statement says, it could conflscate outright; there is no If a city should covet a lot within it's boundaries, and, when the owner sought a building permit, impose and condition that 1t receive a quit claim deed for the property Wrongs which cannot be accomplished direct ly may not be accomplished indirect ly The situation, therefore, the state ment says, Is that the companies are forcibly prevented from taking oil from their properties, and the Gov ernment is asserting simultaneously that the oil belongs to the nation inalienably and tnprescriptively.
 The companies are owned by American stockholders, the statement
 continues. They have made large expenditures, and have incurred large
 contractual obligations in anticipa-
 tton of the development and produc-
 ton of these Mexican properties. Re
 gently their wells in parts of the
 southern Mexican field have failed
 very rapidly, going to salt water.
 The new wells were necessary to
 meet this contingency. As their old
 wells ceased to produce, their busi-
 ness comes to an end. One large company, the statement continues | already has reached the point where 1t no longer has any crude for eX-
 port. Stress of this kind cannot be endured indefinitely.
 The statement says: "A claim for damages would be worthless. There could be no ascertainment of the real damages, and the collection would be less a problem. The com panies appeal to Congress as they are appealing to the State Depart ment. They ask for protection.''
 In conclusion, the statement points | out that much of the oil they pro- duce is used by industries in the United States which cannot now get l coal, and adequate supplies of fue i oil cannot be obtained if the Mexican supply is shut off or diminished.
 The next Mexican Congress is l elected in July next, and assembIes September l. So far as information 1 here bearing upon the sentiment ir 1 Mexico is concerned, it Is said thai 1 the next Congress promises to bc 1 very much more friendly to foreign corporations than the present ons 1 and that it is conf1dentialIy believed | that the new Congress will afford 1 protection to foreign corporations in l vesting their money in that country

GROUNDS 0F
 GOVT HOUSES
 WELL LAID OUT

Much surprise is expressed at the beautiful layout of the grounds sur rounding the government houses at Grassmere and Old Mill Green by a number of prospective purchasers who have visited these developments dur ing the past few weeks.
 The houses are mads very attractive by the well kept lawns and shrubbery which add much to the appearance of these neat and homelize brick houses that the government is selling much below the present cost of construe- ton.
 The grounds have Deen laid out by the most famous landscape gardeners in the country and the houses them selves have been planned by the gov ernment experts who have eliminated all waSteful and unnecessary frills and have installed up-to-date plumbing and other modern conventences.
 More than one-haIf of the houses have already been sold and the agents at both Grassrnere and Old Mill Green are kept busy showing the properties to prospective purchasers.
 It will be only o matter of short time when all the houses will be sold and those who delay much longer in
 filing their applications, will be dis appointed when they apply to find that all the houses are sold.
 The easy payment plan adopted by the government is a great incentive to saving. The first payment is only 10 per cent. of the purchase price and the balance can be paid at the rate of one per cent. a month. By this method the purchaser is the owner of the property free from incumbrance after eleven years and then is sure of a home for the rest of his life

Rhineland Question
 Is Worrying Germans

With The American Forces in Germany, Dec. 1S.-Pan Germans are still worrying over the Rhineland question. Although all is apparent ly quiet on the surface, they insist that the agitation for separation, first from Prussia and then from Germany, continues under cover
 This opinion is shared by the Democratic Frankfurt Gazette which commented recently on the efforts be- ing made by the Centrist party for the establishment of this republic ''as a beloved land of Catholicism"
 Leaders of the Centre party have steadfastly denied having even the remotest idea of ever separating from Germany, but have admitted that they had been working with the hope of ultimate separation from Prussia by legal means.
