WOULD PREVENT
BORDER CLASHES
Carranza Government Pro-
poses U. S. Mexican Re-
CiproCaI Guard Service.

Mexico City. Aug. 22--An i'm
portant step toward the adoption OF
measures tending to prevent clashes
between Mexico and the United
States was taken last night when
Luis Cabrera, secretary OF the treas
ury. and generally regarded as the
mouthpiece OF the present admins
tration stated In a press interview
that the Mexican and American gov
crnments should sign an agreement
for a reciprocal border guard SER
vice.
Ignacio Bonillas, Mexican am
hassador at Washington. according
to Senor Cabrera. would be "emi-
nently fitted" for conducting nego-
tiations with this purpose in view
since he was a member OF the Mexi-
can commission which met United
states representatives at Atlantic
city in 1916, to discuss this plan dur
ing the' Pershing expedition into
northern Mexico. Senior Cabrera was
himself chairman OF the Mexican
commission.
According to the secretary. the
difficulties which prevented the
"ppp'lun oI suCH an agreement at
Atlantic City were due to the fact
that the American delegation wanted
the agreement signed Immediately
while the Mexican commission held
out for withdrawal OF the Per-
shing expedition before reaching an
agreement. Senior Cabrera pointed
that at present such a difficulty
would not be met since the early
withdrawal Of the Eighth cavalry,
now pursuing bandits in the state
of Chihuahua, 'was expected.
Comment in other Official quarters
tended to point out that with re-
ciprocal border service to eliminate
further clashes with the present gov
ernment bending every effort to pro-
tect foreign property and with con-
gress about to take up the oil ques-
tion, the case of Mexico should be
solved quickly"

terest to thousands of tenants was de-
cided in favor of the tenant against

ting before Judge Finletter in Com

from month 10 month the oral agree
ment was from year to year.

bound the tenant as against the oral
agreement, and he caused to be issued
