Adjustment OF the Iong-continued
controversy between American oil in
terests and the Mexican government
is in prospect, according to Ambassa-
dor Henry P. Fletcher, now here on
leave.
In an interview here today, he ex-
pressed himself as hopeful Of an
amicable arrangement which would
recognize American rights without
treading on Mexico's sovereign rights.
At the same time, he revealed that
the Mexican press had said the gov
eminent is contemplating refunding
the public debt, and may send an en-
Voy here to study possibilities OF
some financial adjustment. o.,
Relations between the two coun-
tries he designated as most cordial
adding that many questions pending
between the two are being approached
in friendly fashion. Mexico is boom
ing more and more convinced of
Americas unselflshness. The altruism
of the American peace platform, he
said, had done much to disipate the
harm wrought by virulent anti
American propaganda conducted by
German agents. This propaganda,
however, died with the armistice and
the departure Of the German minister.
CarranEa Real Power.
President Carranza, Fletcher. de-
cIared' emphatically, is the real
power in Mexico. He has real execu-
tive ability and has forcefully over
come numerous obstacles in the way
of reconstruction. Some sections Of
Mexico show marked progress, while
in others reconstruction has been
badly hampered. The army is under
reorganization; railroads are being
restored gradually.
AS for the oil situation. Fletcher
said IL Is generally understood Car
rama will call a special congress ses-
sion in April or May to take up the
oil problem. At present, Mexico
contends 1t has a right to oil deposits,
whereas American oil interests say
that they acquired their properties
under the 1884 law, whereby govern
nent control Of oil was exempted. The
State Department protested. last year
over the constitutional provision for
taking the American oil, and Mexico
has never enforced her DEGREES, and
has never collected 4 dollar Of tax
under them. i
To Reach Agreement.
With the special session coming on
It is likely Carranza will ask oil men
to appear before a special committee.
And it is likely that an amicable ad-
justment will be reached protecting
American rights. The congress start
ed work in December on the situa-
tion. but the session expired before
much progress had been made.
Incidentally, the ambassador ex-
pressed doubt that Mexico will pre-
sent herself before the Paris peace
conference. In fact, he added, Mex |
leo is decidedly opposed to any for |
eign interference in her internal af-
fairs.

REINBERG HITS BACK

President Peter Reinberg of the
forest preserve board presented his
answer to the proposal Of the major
ity Of the county board that the con.
troversy between them as to the ma
jority's right to make new rules be
submitted TO three judges for final
decision. President Reinberg has a
counter proposition for asking the
Chicago Bureau of Public Efficiency
to act as arbiter. In his formal pro-
posal President Reinberg says:
Proper adjustment demands either
a tedious litigation through the courts
lasting for years or a reference of the
entire controversy to an impartial
civic body for recommendation as to
what is necessary to most expeditions.
ly adjust the disputes in the interests
of the taxpayers and the district.
That the second end may be gained,
I recommend that the Chicago bureau
of public efficiency be requested to
make careful survey of the various
controversial problems with which the
board is now concerned and to make
its recommendation for the solution
thereof which will be most beneficial
to the taxpayers and to the district"

UfACTURERS ACT

Illinois manufacturers asked Gov.

officials to consider the best ways of
handling the employment situation.
w. N. Pelouze, acting president of the
Illinois Manufacturers association,
sent a letter to the governor inform
ing him that committee had been
appointed for conference and cooper
alton. Following are excerpts from
the letter:
1T has been brought to the atten-
ton of the Illinois Manufacturers as.
sociation that considerable amount
of public work should be started at
once in order to furnish employment
not only for workmen already unem.
ployed but to keep employed the men
in those plants that would produce
the necessary material for public
work.
1.-THE state has the good roads prof.
ect and the waterways program,
amounting in all to about $4,000 900,
which work If started at once would
provide employment for many fac
