Identity One of
Entrekin's SlaYers

Skowhegan, Me-, Nov. 30-One Of
the three young men awaiting trial
for the murder on November Of
Asa B. Entrekin, the Embden station
agent, who gave the name of Earl
Morris of Ashland. KY, admitted to
Sheriff John A. Mooers late today
that he is Homer Sturlock Of Ash
land, KY.
The identification was established
as the result of correspondence with
fhe Ashland police by whom Sheriff
Mooers was notified recently that
Earl Morris was in Ashland and that
some one had been posing as Morris
at Pittsburgh, Pa, and Wheeling,
". Va.
Sturlock, according to the sheriff,
said he took the name because he
did not want his people to know of
his connection with the Embden
murder and that he did not know
there was an Earl Morris. His faith
CT has written, claiming he is only
is. although he says he is "a and
asking that leniency be shown as he
is Il minor. ..'
Sturlock, John Brown Of Boston
and James Purcell of New Bedford,
Mass, are alleged to have signed a
confession in the presence Of the Of
Iicers. though they pleaded not guilty
when arraigned later on the charge Of

SECRETARY COLBY
TAKES STEP TOWARD
TREATY with MEXICO

Washington, Nov. 30-A formal pro-
'posal from Secretary Colby that COM
rnissioners be appointed by the Unit
ed States and Mexico to draft a
treaty upon which can be based re-
sumption. Of full diplomatic relations
between the two governments has
been taken to Mexico City by Ro-
berto V. Pesqueira, Mexican condden-
tial agent in Washington.
This was disclosed tonight when
the State Department made public
Mr.. Colby's answer to Mr.. Pesqueira's
recent letter urging recognition by
the United States Of the New Gov
eminent of Mexico. 1t was handed
to the Mexican agent before his de-
parture Thanksgiving Day to attend
the Inauguration of President Elect
Obregon of Mexico, December I.
Referring to his conversation with
Mr.. Pesqueira, Secretary Colby in his
letter said that they served to leave
no reasonable doubt ''of the high and
enlightened purposes that actuate
the present government of Mexico"
AS to Article q of the Mexican con-
stitution, long a stumbling block to
complete understanding between the
two governments, Mr.. Colby said the
statement in Mr.. Pesqueira's letter
that 1T is not and must not be in
terpreted as retroactive or violative
Of valid party rights" should allay
the fears of those who have acquired
valid titles in Mexico, adding:
II can conceive of nothing better
calculated to correct this misunder-
standing.
THE interest of other nations in
this subject should not, and I am
convinced it is not, be attributed to
any sinister influence or to interfere
with exico in the adoption and pur-
suit of any policy with regard to its
land and resources which expresses
it's aspirations and satisfies it's peo-
pie. Indeed, may remark that there
is wide sympathy for the apparent
desire of your country to inaugurate
u policy which shall protect it's great
resources against waste, disposal OF
other improvident treatment. The
freedom to do this which no one can
dispute nor even criticize, is in no
sense compromised by the due re-
spect for legally vested interest which
you SO fully avow, with a convincing
sincerity which is beyond question"
