MEXICO CITES REASONS
FOR CLAIMING ISLANDS

lands, as published in Excelsior, are:
The United States is not occupy
ing them by right of discovery, be-
cause they were discovered in the
sixteenth century by the Spanish
navigator Cabrillo, who gave them
the names which they now bear.
They are not occupied by right
of purchase, as Mexico has never
sold them to any person or nation,
They are not occupied by right Of
conquest, for they were never con-
Quered
They are not occupied by right of
territorial jurisdiction, because the
international code of the United
States sets the principle that the
territorial jurisdiction of a nation
cannot extend farther than a league
from shore, and the islands in ques-
ton are at a greater distance from
The shore of the United States.
"The international code Of the
United States rejects the right Of
conquest by stating that not all ter
ritory conquered belongs to the con-
queror, but only that part assigned
by definite stipulations of duly au'
thorized treaties"
Further proof of the claim of Mex
leo to the islands is cited in the de
cree of the queen of Spain in 1886
declaring that in the future all pos
sessions of the kingdom Of New
Spain belonged to the republic OF
Mexico. a sovereign nation. FoI
many years Mexico actually exer
cised control over the islands, it is
asserted
1t is stated by Excelsior that
President obregon may include the
matter in General Aguirre's report
in future negotiations between the
United States and Mexico toward tht
accomplishment OF a proposed
Treaty of Friendship and Com.

NORTHERN RAILROAD
GET A |2-CENT RAISE

CHICAGO July 11.-Shop employees
of the Nevada Northern railway
were today granted an increase of II
cents an hour over the rate Of pay
as Of March /, 1920, in decision
of the railway labor board The
new rate is 81 3-S cents an hour,
retroactive to May /, 1920,
The Nevada Northern was not in
volved IN the recent wage reductions
and the shopmen consequently will
continue to get the full amount as
granted by the 1920 wage awards.
The employees contended they always
had received higher wages in the Ne
vada mining section than those paid
in other localities on account Of the
high cost of living and incOnyeni-
ences of isolated sections and SINH
lar reasons. The company showed
1t was owned by the Nevada Con-
solidated Copper company and the
high wages were generally due to
prosperity in the copper business and
the llberalty Of the company. The
company contended it is operating
at loss now and should not be COM
PEELED to pay higher wages.

RUSH To OIL FIELDS Of
FORT NORMAN STARTED
CBy Associated Pressl

CBy Associated PressI
EDMONTON, Alta. July 1.-THE
rush to stake all claims in the Fort
Norman, northwest territories, fields
has begun in earnest, and each day
now sees the tide of fortune seek
ers sweeping northward from Ed
monton, Fort McMurray, Peace River
Crossing and other points. The
marchers also include scores Of ex-
oerienced mineral prospectors bound
for the sub Arctic in quest Of gold.
Every own, hamlet, trading post
and river is squirming with activity
Of men striving desperately to be
the first into the Arctic with the
breaking of tho ice in the Great Slave
lake Not since the gold rush Of
1897 to the Klondike and Alaskan
gold fields has there been such an
immense migration.
But the odyssey Of the Yukon IS
being rewritten in the present rush
in terms OF modern transportation.
The oil seekers making their way
north travel in modern sleeping cars
to the end OF the northern railways
and thence in comfortable river
steamers and motor launches One
Canadian oil company is sending its
scouting parties into the territories
in all-metal airplanes.
The moment the traveller leaves
the river highway, however, he is
face to face with the still uncon-
uuered north Portages must be ne.
gotiated with great hardships for
those who are transporting heavy oil
machinery. They get a taste OF the
once trightful Edmonton trail' to
Dawson city-the grimmest Joke Of
