~
Informal Representations Or
dered by State Department
Three Weeks Ago.

Instructions to the American enba ssy
in Mex co City sent about three weeks
sgp directed that informal representa-
tons be made to the Mexican authorities
against certain oil land policies. il
was learned today at the State De-
partment. bur no formal note on the
subject has been dispatched.
In one case the embassy was in
structed to make il known to the
Mexican officials that the United

as in violation of the rights of GER
tain American citizens. Protest was
made also in the same informal way
against the operation of the Mexican
zone law as applied to oil rights ac-
QUESTION.
In both instances. il was said Off
cially. the purpose was to make it
clear to the Mexican government that
the United States proposed to pro-
tect the rights of its citizens in Mexico
when legally acquired.
Protested AEninst system.
American oil producers with Mex
. lean properties. from which 80 per
cent of the oil exported from Mexico
is said to come protested through
{ their organization against the de-
nouncement system. alleging that un-
der IT concessions had been given for
drilling for oil on property owned out
right or leased by members of the
association. They also commended that
the Mexican zone system infringed on
their rights. The State Department
investigated and was said today to
have taken a definite stand in sup
port of the claims Of the oil associa-
ton members.
No report has been received from
the charge at Mexico City, State De-
partment officials said, as to the recep-
ton his informal communications had
met at the Mexican foreign office. The
mbassy has sent no advices indi-
eating that the Mexican government

especially Americans, after he takes
Office. Already a careful study has
been started of his public speeches.
which thus far. it was said today, had
indicated that American lives and
property would be safeguarded and
respected.
Gen. Obregon's revolutionary sue
cess was attributed in part by Off
Gals here to a widespread feeling in
Mexico that the narrow and exag-
geratedly nationalistic policy of the
late President Carranza was not serv-
ing the best interests Of Mexico.
While Obregon's policy may accent
just as strongly the idea of Mexico
for the Mexicans. it was said, in
larger sense the president-elect ap-
preciates that only by rehabilitation
and allowing Mexico and the United
States to resume economic activities
can Mexico attain any real degree Of
betternent and independence.

REVOLT BALKED
BY HUN LABOR
THE GERMAN SITUATION


Germany's two governments-the
new one in Berlin and the old in Stutt-
gart-are still locked in struggle for
supremacy. While reports thru Paris
today reiterate that negotiations are in
progress for a compromise, the Ebert
government in Stuttgart is equally pos
tive that no compromise can be con-
sidered. On the face of the announce
ment by the rival governments today
prouised to witness the beginning of
a determined contest for control.
Chancellor Kapp. backed by the bayo-
nets of the troops that made it pos
sible for him to oust the Ebert gov
ernment, is sitting tight in the German
capital but already feels the effects of
the strong weapon the Socialists have
used to combat him-the general
strike. Against this he declares that
most drastic measures will be taken
Immediately.
In Stuttgart President Ebert and his
followers not only denied the report
current yesterday that an agreement
had been reached with the Kapp
forces but declared there could be no
negotiations except upon the basis OF
unconditional surrender of Doctor
Kapp.
The national assembly called togeth-
er by the Ebert government will meet
at Stuttgart tomorrow to consider the
situation. Field Marshal Won Hinden-
burg. who has been mentioned as the
choice of the Kapp faction for the
German presidency, has eliminated
himself from the situation. it is stated
by Hanover newspapers. He is re-
ported to have made public declara-
ton that he is not connected with the
Kapp revolution and on the contrary
disapproves of it.
Berlin is in the grip Of a genera
strike called by Socialist and labor
leaders as a counter stroke to the as
sumption of power by the government
headed by DR.. Wolfgang Kapp, who
has issued decree threatening al
strike leaders and pickets with deatt

lie services Extreme measures viii
