Carranza Agents Paid.
CarranZa's agents continued to be
paid. Doheny explained. because OF
the desire OF the company to act in
conformity with the attitude Of the
United States government
Detailing the difficulties the oil
companies have experienced because
Of the inclusion Of a confiscatory arti-
Gle in the Mexican constitution and
subsequent DEGREES. Doheny alluded
to a communication from a Mexican
official. in which It was asserted that
the only reason the American oil pro-
ducers had been refused the right TO
drill was because they refused to obey
Mexican laws.
That statement on his part is an
Intentional falsehood," declared Do
heny. The American companies. with
the consent and approval Of and at the
suggestion Of our own state depart
ment, refused to file these manifestos.-l
which would have been an acknowl-
edgment Of the confiscation Of their
own properties. The decree which
they disobeyed is not a law OF Mexico.
It is merely an illegal decree issued
by president Carranza- It is beyond
his power to issue any decree under :
his extraordinary powers granted by
congress except those that relate to
matters connected with finance"
Mr.. DOheny insisted that the
Mexican government, falling to
force Americans to part with their
properties willingly. had merely
adopted another form OF cOnfis-
cafiOn.D in refusing them the right
to drill upon those lands they
already own.
THAT form OF cOnfiscntiOn f.
