MEXICO CITY, June t. Isdro
Favela, former Mexican Minister to
Buenos Ayres, who is very close TO the
dean of the diplomatic corps here, sug-
gests in a statement issued to-day that
Spain or some other friendly nation
has been quietly asked to mediate in
the negotiations between Mexico and
che United States over the proposed
recognition of the Obregon administra-
tion. The statement is apparently
based on the prevailing belief here that
Obregon's reply to Washington which
was handed to George 7. SUNNI erlin,
American Charge d'Affaires, last night,
embodies an implied if not definite
rejection of the American terms.
The fact that Washington assumed
the initiative in the resumption of con-
versations between the two govern
ments has been interpreted in Mexican
official circles as sign of weakness on
the part of the Harding Administration.
The recent American note was ac-
cepted here as merely an effort by the
White House to "save its face" before
yielding to insistent demands from
American citizens for the unconditional
recognition of President Obregon.

WASHINGTON. June 7.-Congress-

would introduce a resolution to-mor-
row to prevent there being any "pugi-

;, The resolution is aimed at the
Dempsey-Carpentier fight, he ex-
planned, adding that the plan ''to settle
on United States soil" the champion
OF the world as to prize fighting was
repugnant to the feeling of all Amer

! OF money involved. He said he could
see no reason why the prize lighters
sfouid be given several hundred thou
sand dollars apiece by the public while
funds for war veterans were being
denied.

FAMINE RELIEF
SLOW REACHING
V0LGA PROVINCE
Seed Grain Arriving Late Means
Partial Crop Failure Next

Riga, Augs923. ,(By the Associated
Press) AT least a partial repetition
next summer Of this years crop fail
ure in the Volga region appears in
evitable, according to dispatches
from Moscow. The Russian peasants
are said to be doing their utmost to
furnish a supply for these stricken
provinces but with only a few weeks
before the latest possible date for
sowing an extremely small proper
tion of the seed grain needed has been
gathered in Russia and the foreign
grain which has been ordered is slow
in coming
Foreign deliveries are so delayed,
says Moscow dispatch to the Let
Wan Telegraph agency, that they will
not aid the stricken govern
ment as seed but only as food.
Some Of the more radical writer's
in the Moscow newspapers charged
that foreign aid is only make believe
and that at the same time France is
arming Rumania and Poland for a new
attack on Russia.
Too Feeble TO Work
London, Aug. 23.-Efforts of en-
ployed workers in Russia TO help the
famine sufferers are hindered by the
fact that they themselves are weaken
ed through lack of proper food says a
Moscow dispatch to the Daily Herald.
Famine now is paralyzing the strong
and weak alike, it adds. and many men
for whom employment is available are
too enfeebled to do anything requiring
physical eXertion.
1t is estimated by the Herald's
Moscow correspondent that workers
in the suburbs of the larger towns
are receiving only 80 percent of the
allotted rations.
In Samara the neople are eating all
the grass that escape the scorching
drOnth and acorns are regarded as a
luxury.

WILLIAMS MAKES SPEECH

Washington, Aug. 23.-Because of
the opposition of Senator Lodge, one
of the delegates to the disarmament
conference, Senator Harrison, Demo-
crat, Mississippi, today withdrew his
amendment directing the American
delegation to demand open sessions.
Referring to the treaty Of Versailles

Eastern questions to be taken up here
in November related to Shantung,
Yap, the open door in China and pos
sibly the Japanese alien land prob
lem all of which, he added, have been
discussed openly in the senate for
years. He insisted the public should
be informed day to day of all discus
sions of naval reductions by the Unit
ed States and the other nations par
ticipating.
Turning to Senator Lodge, the Re-
publican leader named by President
Harding as a member of the Amer!-
can delegation, Senator Harrison ex-
pressed the hope that the conference
would succeed.
But If we are to derive any benefit
from it," he said, "the world must
know who rendered great service
and where blame shall attach in event
Of it's failure l hope the distinguish
ed senator from Massachusetts will
not take the position that the confer
ence must be closed"

version of the accident follows:
Rev. Gage approached the Sterling

was clear view for mile and
half. He stopped about 500 feet from
the crossing and apparently did not
see the approaching train as he start
ed on, the engineer said. Whether or
not the automobile engine went dead
on the crossing is not known, but the
train struck it squarely. The train
was making a speed Of As to so miles
an hour, as it does not stop at Sterl-
ing.
The car was totally demol ished. 1t

Parts of the car were carried for
about 200 feet. The body Of the wo-
man was carried about 100 feet and
that Of the man about $50 feet before
being thrown to the side Of the track.
The ira n was stopped as quickly as
possible and trainmen went to the

as living in Aberdeen, S. D., and an
Identification on a suit case indicated

years old, trainmen said, although
some passengers thought both were
older.

for camping out.

with his wife was coming to Bismarck
on business, said that the train
whistled for the crossing. The train

squarely off, he said, and was not
more than foot from the rails.
Mr.. Oliver said the train whistled

train was brought to stop the wreck

they were on their way to Oswego.
Montana, to visit E. l.. Riggs.
A long distance telephone message
from Aberdeen stated that he was pas
tor OF the Presbyterian church there
and was very popular. He was en-
route home following a visit to Mon
