VATIONALIzING OIL
 LANDS IN MEXICO
Report Eliminates Retroactive
 Effects Of Proposed Law

M~xico City, Aug. 27.--The petro- eum committee of the Mexican senate toGay preSenrnd report on legisla ton reg SIat,ng article 27 of the constitu tion If 1917, which nauonalizes oil lands, and at the same time laid be- fore the senate a draft of a law regu- lating this article and eliminating all retroactive effects of proposed oil leg iaation. This is concession for which foreign oil interests have been contending. The proposals submitted by President Carranza last November looking to the regulation of article 27, now are being considered by the chamber of deputies.
 The senate committees draft of the law is based on the presidents pro- posals, but makes important changes in the plan of the chief executive. These are embodied in section four of article 3, which provides that oil lands privately owned or leased shall be na- tionslized except "all private proper ties regarding which there have not been made contracts for the explora- tion and exploitation of the subsoil May 1, 1917, the date when the presi- dents constitution became effective, and also those where the owner of the surface has not shown by positive acts  been to use substances derived from the SubSOil.''
 Carranza to Speak.
 The committees report which was given it's first reading in the senate to- day, will be ready for the second time on Friday, being scheduled to come up for discussion next Tuesday, the day after President Carranza will formally address 3t 0f regular session. Representatives of oil interests here have expressed sat isfaction with the recommendations of the committee, asserting that If the proposed regulations are passed the greater part Of the causes of the present controversy over oil will be removed.
 The introduction to the report sets forth the committees belief that prop erty rights are protected by the prin- ciples expressed in article 27 of the constitution and the principles outlin- ed in the report respect rights of oil interests legitimately acquired before May 1, 1917, without sacrifice of na- tional sovereignty or rights of the constitutionalist revolution.
 Lining Up Congress.
 Advices reaching Washington through OluCldl CndnnelS indicate that the recent activities of Luis Cabrera, secretary of the treasury of Mexico, and Schiffin, head of the petroleum bureau of the department of industry, commerce and labor, have been for the purpose of bringing back into line the Mexican congress and mem bers of the supreme court who, it is indicated, are somewhat out of step with the Carranza regime. This was the inter pretation of events by state depart ment officials when they learned that the advice to the supreme court by Cabrera was of an official character

instead of being eX-officio as was at first supposed.
 Cabrera urged the supreme court not to hasten the hearing of the Am paro cases brought before the court by the American oil companies. The cases are aimed directly at the presi- dential decrees which led the United States, British. Dutch and French gov ernments to file vigorous protests be- cause they were regarded as aimed at confiscation of foreign owned proper ties. It is no wapparent, according to advices from Mexico City that there is a definite effort in congress to with draw from Carranza the extra ordinary powers in finance under which he is- sued the "spoliation'' decrees.
 It is pointed out by anti-Carranza leaders in congress that the withdraw al of this power from the president would prevent a repetition of legisla tion by these executive decrees and would ease the international situation.
 Newspapers Arc Hostile.
 Mexico City newspapers are violent ly attacking Cabrera, according to ad- vices, especially because of a public statement recently made by him in which he accused the Mexican people of lack of patriotism at this time. This statement was made in view of the recently published declaration that 80 per cent. of the Mexican people would look upon American intervention with indifference and 90 per cent. of the educated class would welcome it.
 One of the Mexico City papers says that in the first year children in school are taught to bear "ill will toward the United StateS''
 The complaint about patriotism, which is existent in Mexico, is only called up by such fellows as Ca brera," the article continues. Every one in Mexico wants an honest settle ment of the petroleum question, but Cabrera comes along and tries to an- tagonize the peoples wishes"

Repair Shin Mysterious.

The manufacture Of large part Of
machinery to replace anything broken
is almost impossible in the limited
space Of the battleship's machine
shops. But wondrous featS are per
formed in the repair ships that &C
company fleets on stations remote
from dock facilities, states a British
war correspondent.
The repair ship Is a huge floating
smithy and machine shop packed with
everything that the wit of man can
concentrate into the space for treat
ing wounded battleships These ships
employ some of the best artificers
from our naval dockyards and are
scattered in every quarter In which
the British feet is stationed remote
from dock facilities. The Boche has
nothing Ike them and it has been
stated that no inquisitive Boche has
ever been allowed'to intrude his nose
aboard one to investigate its mysteries
and take the information to his en-
ployers Of how the strange feats per-
formed by the repair ship are effected.
The repair ship is the abode of secrets.

Sailor Invents Fire Escape,

One Of the boys aboard our navy's
fleet has invented fire escape which
is similar to the rope ladders used
aboard ships. His principal object
was to provide collapsible fire es-
cape which could be compactly and
conveniently arranged at the window
Of dwelling. 1t consists Of a con-
tainer hinged ITO the sill in such a
manner that by opening the window
and folding the container on its hinge
the metal ladder may be unfolded
and dropped. When this operation is
gone through, means is automat-
ically provided whereby the ladder is
held at distance from the walls OF
the building. The advantage Of such
precaution Is obvious.

Malaria and Moonlight.

Indulgence in moonlight serenades
or other nocturnal diversions down
in the Panama Canal Zone is unsafe
unless one is willing to pay the
penalty in subsequent large doses Of
quinine. Malaria has so largely in
fected the Americans in the Zone
after they have spent an evening at
pleasure resorts, especially in the
suburbs Of Panama, that the health
department has been obliged to issue
a special warning that 1t is unsafe to
do SO. In case necessity or tho
search for pleasure leads one to so
expose himself, it is said that quinine
should be taken.

THEIR FINAL REST TOGETHER
Soldiers Intensely Pathetic osserip.
zion Of the Burial Of Youthful Scot.
tish Offlcsr With His Men,

stood one night on q certain hill
that commands the firing line In an
almost soundless panorama. Beside
me was an officer of the Second ca
madam division. who had Just come
out, There that night, by its white
trail Of iridescent light, we could trace
the course of the firing line for many
miles through France and Flanders.
Just to our left the line Of light
jutted far out, like n lone cape into
the sea. what Is that jutting.out
placer" my friend inquired.
THAT" answered, "is the Ypres
salient, the Bloody Angle of the Brit
ish line"
To mention the name Of Ypres Is
to have ones memory awakened with
veritahle Kaleidoscope of pictures.
That trail of light that jutted out into
the night looked like cape, and an
iron cape 1t has been through months
that cape has been at an awful cost,
and there was not an inch along that
trailing line OF light that had not
cost its trailing line Of blood.
Just after the. first gas attack In
April, 1915, the whole countryside was
in panic. The roads were filled with
civilians in alarm. fleeing down coun-
try, and with limbers and marching
troops hasteping up. I was passing
through the town Of Vlamerthigne,
which is situated two miles beyond
Ypres. In field at the side OF the
road | saw a funeral party 1t con-
sisted OF several pioneers, serving as
grave diggers, a gray-headed Scottish
major and a corporals guard to act
as firing party.
learned that this inconspicuous
group We're burying the last original
officer of a battalion Of the Cameron
Highlanders. The dead officer was a
young subaltern, and the gray-haired
old major was his father, who had
come from another regiment TO attend
the funeral of his son.
So, over in a great deep trench,
where number Of the rank and file of
the fallen Camerons We're already laid
the body of their dead subaltern was
placed. AS I saw the officer and his
men of the bonnie Highland regiment
thus laid to rest together, I thought
