0bREG0N TO ALLOW
RECOGNITION APPEAL
TO REST ON RULE
(Bv Associated Press.)

MEICO CITY, Dec. 9.-Efforts to OBJ
tain recognition by the United States
of the Obregon regime in Mexico will
not be carried on as actively as they
were under the administration OF
Adolfo de la Huerta. it is indicated
here. 1t is declared he is inclined to
allow mis- administration during the
next few months to act as his appeal
for recognition. An indication that
recognition by the United States is
not far away, it is asserted, is the
absence of Alberto J. Pani, from the
Obregon cabinet. 1t is understood the
former Mexican minister to France Is
the new presidents choice for an
eventual representative in Weshing-
ton.
The fact that within the past few
days Japan, Germany and Brazil have
recognized Mexico has aroused only
mild newspaper comment. Several
Journals have urged editorially the
necessity of recognition by the United
States, asserting that would mean
similar action by all the European
powers. They argue that such recoeni-
tion would add stability to the
Obregon government which faces crit
ical months of reconstruction.
President Obregon spent the most Of
his first week in official life at home
recuperating from the strenuous pro-
cram of the inauguration. He is
following a rigid program of diet and
exercise.
General Benjamin Hill, secretary Of
war, is also ill, and it is believed will
leave soon for Los Angeles, Calf,
where he will receive treatment.

IMMIGRATION BILLS
PROVISIONS 0PPOSEP

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Provisions
of the house immigration bill, which
comes up for debate today, are op-
posed as unnecessary. injurious to the
public welfare and constituting a re-
versal of the historic policy of the
country" in a minority report of the
immigration committee signed by
Representatives Siegal, of New York,
and SABBATH. of Illinois.
The bills proposal for a practical
suspension of all immigration for a
period of two years, the report de-
clared. is unwarranted both as to pres
ent labor conditions in this country
and the number of immigrants arriv-
ing.
Whereas prior to 1914 the total i'm
migration frequently exceeded 1,O0O,-
600 per year, it was pointed out, the
total for the fisrt II months of this
year was only s4O,509, with a total of
366,916 emigrants to balance against
that figure.

miral II. T. Mayo, wartime commander

more than Al years of service. He has

NO PEACE WITHOUT
IRISH RECOGNITION,
SAYS MRS. M'SWINEY
(Ry Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Dec 9-Proponents
in Ireland of an Irish republic are re-
solved that England shall have no
peace; that the world will have no
peace until our republic is recog-
nized," Mrs. Muriel McSwiney. widow
of the late lord mayor of Cork, de-
clared today before the committee of
1000 investigating conditions in Ire
land.
Mrs McSwiney said material relief
for her country was necessary for
many were starving.
But what we want more" she ad-
ded. sis our freedom. We want Eng
land out. l think the people of Ireland
would choose freedom and our repub-
lie rather than food if they were
forced to choose between them"
Mrs. McSwiney thus summed up
her statements before the commission
after she had given a dramatic recital
of conditions in her homeland and Of
the life history of her husband, who
died in Brixton prison, London, as the
result of hunger strike.
Women Organized
The women of Ireland. she said, are
organized as well as the men. The
women of Ireland have steeled them
selves to meet all torment she de-
clared "The women of Ireland sell
dom weep now"
Miss Mary McSwiney, sister of the
lord mayor, who accompanied her sis
ter in law here from Cork in order
"to aid the commission in obtaining
the true facts" concerning the trouble
in Ireland, completed her statement
yesterday after being on the stand
eight hours.
Miss McSwiney reviewed the move
ment for Irish independence from its
inception. She charged the British
government had attempted through a
reign sf terror to starve her coun-
try into submission and that it had
kept alive and continuously stirred
religious hatred. She declared the
United States had not lived up to its
ideal of making the world safe for
democracy" but insisted that Ireland
would gain its freedom even though
England had to be beaten to the
ground"

troversy concerning the proposed re-
peal Of the Indiana state primary law,
which has been advocated by Cover
McCray
Indiana congressman, it is stated,
are content with that provision of the
existing primary law which requires
that candidates for representatives in
congress shall be nominated at pri-
mary elections. They feel, it is under
stood. that they are not concerned
whether candidates for governor and
United States senators continue to be
nominated at statewide primary elec-
tions or whether the legislature
amends the law and restores the old
system of nominating such officers at
state conventions.
Members of the Indiana delegation
in the lower house of congress foresee
lively contest in the Indiana legisla-
ture this winter over the question of
the proposed repeal of the primary
law and none of them is anxious to
become involved in the contest for the
particular reason that they would have
nothing to gain by taking a hand in
it, being well content, as has been
stated, with the present method of
nominating members Of congress at
primary elections
