seutial for the purpose Of deciding
any difference. As regards the United
States specifically, Mexico has al
ready expressed her intention IN ar
ticle q OF the treaty Of Guadalupe
HidalEo and is prepared to enlarge
and strengthen this machinery
Our plan is to establish a national
program based on order and justice.
1t Is our firm belief that the people OF
North America are Just as faithful to
their own high ideals. Hence nothing
could better shield the dignity OF both
republics, as nothing could be more
efficacious for the continuance Of
peaceful relations. than the operation
OF a commission Of this nature, or
gauized in accordance with recog-
nized international practices
This policy should be made perma-
nent and the Mexican government de-
sires TO cooperate insofar as may be
needful towards this end
Another cause Of deep national
resentment for the Mexican govern
ment is the oft-repeated assertion
that our laws are Of a retroactive and
confiscatory nature, and that our ma
tional program is based on a policy Of
confiscation- This is entirely ground
less. Not one square yard Of land
has been conffscated in Mexico. Not
a single legitimate right OF property
has been annulled. Nor do we intend
to deviate from this fundamental
policy. President de Il Husrta and
president-elect Obregon have also
made public declarations 10 the ef

federal constitution Is not and must

FAMOUS OLD ENGLISH PUBS"
Houses of Entertainment That Have Been Popular In the Little
 Isle for Centuries.

If the prohibitionists get their way, and close all the pubs in town and country, some long histories will reach sudden close, remarks writer in London Answers. It is a toss-up which is the oldest public house in England. The Trip to Jerusalem, at Nottingham. claims to be. It has perhaps survived. because it is hewn out of the rock be- low the castle. If name Is any guide, 1t apparently commemorates the Cru sades, and Richard the Lion Heart Is said to have drank ale there in 1189. That seems old enough for anything.
 Still, there Is The Fighting Cocks, at St. Albans. which can assuredly point back to 1250. Prior to that, 1t was the Monks Fishing House. l. Is octagonal in shape, and it's ceilings are not six feet high. Altogether a notable old pub.
 Nobody ought to go to Gloucester without seeing the Cathedral first and the New Inn second. The New Inn Is one of the oldest inns in the country, and one of the most picturesque and best preserved.
 The Seven Stars, at Manchester, Is another old place, and so is the Rose and Crown at Bainbridge, In Wensley- dale. Probably this was the first Rose and Grown, which refers to the Tudor Rose, and 1t has been very extensively copied, for in the neighborhood of Lon don alone, there must be a dozen of that name.
