MeNicdnS to
 Consider Oil
 Regulations
High Officials Believe Objec- tionable Features Will
 Be Removed

WASHINGTON. March 1S-The Mexican congress has been called by President Carranza to meet in extra session May l. State department ad- vices today said business to be con sidered would include oil land legis- lation, a law to enforce provisions of the new constitution relating to labor and social welfare and legislation for central bank
 The oil land legislation is of marked interest to the United States, Great Britain and France, as it will affect vast property holdings of their na- tionals. The pending petroleum bill. upon which the last congress did net have time to act after the measure was submitted by President Carran- "a. is regarded in official circles here are unsatisfactory in that it merely grants licenses to oil companies to operate their productive wells and thus fails to insure title to their un- developed lands held in reserve for the future.
 Officials said today the proposed law failed to recognize vested rights which the United States, Great Brit ain and France specifically insisted upon in notes sent to the Mexican government nearly a year ago The rights of property purchased in Mex ico under the old constitution were recognized until 1917 when the new constitution declaring all minerals be longed to the government and denying the right of foreigners to own land in Mexico became effective
 r- F,- cause of the new feeling of eOOpera- tion now evident on both sides of the Rio Grande the objectionable feature of the oil bill will be eliminated by the Mexican congress
 The labor legislation to come be fore the extra session of congress also is considered of great importance be cause 1t affects many mining, agri- cultural and other companies in Mex ico financed by Americans and other foreigners. Under authority of the , new constitution many of the Mexi- can states have adopted the eight hour day, with a seven-hOur limit for night work, compulsory profit sharing among the employees and other labor Jaws and a means is now sought to enforce them
 WOrkmen's compensation laws have been enacted by most of the state legislatures
