Shipping Board to Close Bars
: on Steamers for South
America.

Intoxicating liquors will not be
sold on Shipping Board passenger
liners plying between New York ana
South America, Chairman Payne mas
announced The first of these ships,
the Moccasin, will sail from New
York Saturday.
Despite assurances from the boards
legal departments that the prohibi-
tion law would not be effective out
side OF the three-mile limit. Chair
man Payne takes the position that
since the sale of liquor in the United
States Is prohibited, its sale should
not be permitted on Government
owned vessels. The question OF
whether serving wines with meals
would constitute a sale of liquor
within the meaning of the law has
not yet been determined, officials OF
the board said.
Announcement Of Chairman Payne's
decree created considerable surprise
In shipping circles In New York
Several steamship men said the rul-
ing, IL enforced, would be a serious
handicap for American ships in COM
petition with British passenger
Lines in the same service. Only one
passenger ship Of the Government
owned feet 10 ready for operation
thus far.
On all Of the privately owned
American passenger liners engaged
in foreign trade, bars have been In
stalled. -Coastwise liners have been
dry" ever since the wartime edict
became effective.

These figures are said to include the foreign in
vestment in the national debt of Mexico and the
distribution, as far as be worked out of the
holdings of the securities of all companies operat-
ing in Mexico
The British government is demanding adequate
protection for British subjects and property in
Mexico, including specifically the oil wells the Brit
ish government recently has purchased from Brit
ish corporations, and also is demanding reparation
for the destruction Of British lives and property
The French government is making similar de-
mands and i'm addition insists that Carranza pay
the interest on the $30O00000 Huerta loan which
was hoaed in France but which has been repudi-
ated by the present Mexican government
The $50 100000 loan constitutes the difference
between the amount of the Mexican external debt
as estimated by r. w. Osterheld at S173. 400 O67
and he figures given today by the Mexican gov
eminent which are Sl43472125.
Regarding the internal loan debt Of Mexico. the
Mexican treasury department says 1t totals $685.
397 775 with interest to June 80 next amounting to
S17914,67262.
The official Mexican figures fail to take into
account the entire railroad Indebtedness, guaran-
teed specifically by the Carranza government when
the lines were taken over and which is given as
S2eO.5e $50 United states currency.
Nor do the Mexican figures include obligations
other than railroads which the Mexican govern
ment has guaranteed and which, therefore. CON
stitute a valid claim against Mexico as direct
external loan. Chief Of these IS the Gaia de

with interest to June 30, equal S3l SOC 74275 Nor
