MEXICO CLAIMS
i. S. ISLANDS ON

No Plans Made to Ask Sur

CEDED TO MEXICO IN 1886

WASHINGTON. June 25.-The Obregon
ing the surrender by the United States
Of Santa Cataline, Farallon and other
groups of islands of the Catalina coast,
which a Mexican commission has Just
decided belong to Mexico, but If 1t makes
representations TO this Government at all,
probably will be satisfied with a cash
settlement, according to officials of the
Mexican embassy today.
At the embassy cognizance was ad-
mitted Of the report of the investigating
committee, headed by Under Secretary
Of Agriculture AmadO Aguirre, in which
claim is made to nine islands just off
the California coast, but the embassy
has received no instructions in the mat
ter, it was stated. Tn official advices
from Mexico City have stated that the
Mexican chancellory is considering
making formal claim for the islands as
recommended in the Aguirre report.
A summary Of the report available
here shows that the claims include the
islands of San Angel, Santa Rosa, Santa
Veracruz, Anacapa, Santa Catalina, Santa
Barbara, San Nicolas. San Clements and
the Farallones. They are almost within
slShl OF the CALIFORNIA coast ana on
the Farallon islands, just outside the
Golden Gate at San Francisco, there is
a lighthouse and a United States radio
station. The possession OF any these
Islands by an enemy nation would IN
quektionably constitute a danger.
After proving to his own satisfaction
at least that Mexico's claims are in
disputable, Aguirre in his report says:
The government of Mexico should
make use OF its rights to the islands in
question through whatever methods it
deems most adequate to arrive at the

WILL SAIL YAWL TO
SOUTH SEA ISLANDS
fBv The Associated PRESS

Los ANGELES, Calf, July %
Harry Pidgeon, who, single handed
sailed a 34-foot yawl from Los Angeles
harbor to Honolulu and back last sum-
mer, is preparing his craft for a voy-
age to the South sea Islands, 5000
miles southwest Of here. He plans TO
set sail for the TIarquesas within the
next month or so.
Pidgeon is an amateur mariner.
without previous experience he built
his boat himself He got his plan
from the 25-foot yawl "Seabird" in
which Thomas Fleming Day made a
trip across the Atlantic IL years ago,
but he made his own boat nine feet
longer.
When he had finished his ship build
ing last summer, he obtained a sex
tant and picked up little navigation.
Then he set sail alone and made Hon
olulu in 26 days after fairly rough
trip. He also sailed the boat home,
but took shipmate along to give him
a better chance to sleep.
Pidgeon plans to take supplies and
water sufficient for two or three
months, to carry him through the dol
drums in the South Pacific. A sea
anchor will furnish a valuable part OF
his equipment for use in heavy
weather and when he sleeps.

corn, sweet potatoes, sugar cane and
Irish potatoes have all been more or less
affected.
The sweet potato yield in the county
may be about the same as was that of
last year Although the individual acre
age is smaller the planting has been more
general The yield is not expected to
be as large per acre and will be later
than that of last year on account of the
drought.
The estimated sweet potato crop of the
country for this year is IL. OLA, 900 BUSH
els, that, of last year being 112, 1858, 900
bushels. Sweet potatoes being shipped
from the south are netting more than the
retail prices received in the local mar
ket, Mr.. Smith says. Sweet potatoes
which have been selling in the northern
markets for 1926 per bushel bring $3.50
per bushel in the local markets The
early crops of course bringing the cream
of the price. The sweet potato crop this
year viii be shorter than has been esti-
mated, asserts Mr.. Smith, especially in
Florida, Alabama and other southeastern
states because of the dry spell of weather
and consequent decrease in acreage.
The corn yield of the county as
whole is between SO and 60 per ceat of
that if last year, it has been estimated.
Only the early and late corn will reach
maturity that of the midseason Icing
about % per cent crop because of the
drought. The corn crop of the county
last year was 1O1.522 bushels. IT. was
grown under much more favorable con-
ditions than have existed for Tie c.ep
of this year.
Farmers of Escambia county had lit
tie trouble with the various )ssts and
insects this year. A fairly good DIVERSE
fication OF crops is followed out by tho
farmers OF the county Mr.. Smith says,
and farmers in this county and other
parts of the section are showing more
progressiveness each year and are learn
ing the value of brain work in farming.
Escambia county farmers have given
more attention to the raising Of hogs and
poultry recently, aIr. Smith says, and
while some farmers have cut down, most
have increased their number of hogs and
have introduced some pure bred stock
The raising of poultry has been increased
to twice as much, or more than that of
last year and a good market has been
found for the POULTRY products. The
country peddlers while they may nave
their disadvantages, Mr.. Smith says, have
done much to build UP the raising Of
poultry in the county by providing a
steady market to farmers a distance from
any market place.
