Cases Pending Three Years

The Texas Company suit has peen
lading in the Mexican courts. along
Al actions brought by more than a
ndred other American oil companies,
iwaearly three years. This suit, like
Hsst Of the others, conferred around an
fplcation for an injunction to prevent
lie Mexican government from enfotc~
x the retroactive features Of Article
! of the Carranza constitution, under
mich sub-soils were declared the prop
srty of Mexico and under which the
american oil properties were seized.
Rumors were current in Wall Street
last week that the first reports Of the
COURTS decision had been too sweepin p
ID their limitations and had aroused
.slse hopes. The announcement in
Mexico City to-day, however, estab
fishes that the first forecast of the de-
csion was correct.
What disposition will be made Of N f,
c'her Oil cases pending before the Su-
preme Court has not been announced.
lhs suggestion in Mexico City when
consideration of the Texas Companv
case was begun, that decision in it
would serve as precedent for subse-
gaent cases, aroused the hope that the
nssxlean government would yield and
we o'ner actions could be dropped.

Views of Business Men
on Buying Weeks Sought
Jesse |. Strauss Hopes Plan
Would Result in perme-
nently Lowering Prices

jesse I. Strauss, who was plartsa
chairman OF the Buying Weeks Com
m'etee at the meeting held in the City
Ha'i on Thursday, said yesterday that
he would call meeting OF the presi-
dents Of the leading commercial bodies
oil New York early this week and find
cut their opinions of the proposal.
The buying weeks proposal was to
relieve unemployment by stimulating
purchases, both Wholesale and retail
The plan called for week of Wholesale
buying, to be followed after an inter
val with a week of retail purchasing.
1t was hoped to move $100, 000, 900 worth
OF stock in these two weeks.
The Mayors meeting was called for
the purpose of relieving the distress to
unemployment" Mr. Strauss said, with
secondary purpose of rousing New
York out of what appears to be a state
of uneasiness and to stimulate more
hopeful attitude toward business con-
ditions,"
Mr.. Strauss continued by saying that
opinions from business men differed as
to whether the contemplated campaign
could be helpful.
"lf the movement would result in
permanently lowered prices, there
would be no gaSnsayine its worthwhile
ness Mr.. Strauss went on. However,
o1e cannot expect, overnight, to RENE
dy an economic state which is the re-
suit Of several years of conditions such
as the world has never before seon"
Such a campaign would certainly
help the merchants of the city, Mr..
Strauss said, and give the town the en-
thusiasm of an old home week.

a married woman is valid. She can by
will dispose Of any property that she
owns or any interest that she may
have in any property. All the prop
erty that she owned prior to her mar
riage is called her separate property
and may be disposed of in any way,
also property that she has acquired
and holds in her own right since the
marriage. 2. In the event Of the
death of the husband without making
will and if there are no children the
wife would inherit one-half of all real
property and the balance goes to his
heirs. The wife has no interest in
the property of the husband during
his life time that she can convey or
sell. She is entitled to secure support
and maintenance out of this property
during her life time, but can not
dispose of any interest in the property
by will or otherwise. The homestead,
if selected prior to the death of the
husband, goes to the wife and she is
entitled to use it during her life time.

on the same day she was divorced from her
first husband. Is she legally married7 8.
1t not, what steps must, be taken to become
legally married?- B.
1. Yes. 2. The law of Montana pro-
hibits such a marriage but does not de-
clare it to be void. It is therefore
valid until set aside at suit of the inno-
cent party. The courts hesitate to de-
clare such marriages void because of
their desire to protect the rights of
children. 8. A marriage ceremony

1. Yes. 2. Yes. The mortgage is
good as between you and the bank. It
is necessary to acknowledge it before
the notary public in order to place it
on record, but the absence of such an
acknowledgement or even of record
would not affect the validity of the
mortgage as between you and the
bank. A non-recorded mortgage is
not valid as against a third person
who extended credit to you without
notice of the mortgage. The acknowl-
edgement and recording serves as no.
tice to all the world of the mortgage.

ties to mortgage all the horses, the in
tentions of the parties would govern,
and it could be foreclosed on the en-
tire herd.
