PETROLEUM MATTER
fRv Associated Press,

MEXICO CITY, July 15.-Silence re-
garding petroleum matters was MAIN
tanned at the Office of President Obre-
gon yesterday and last night. II was
asserted by reliable authorities here,
however, that it was not his immediate
intention to revoke his recent decree,
increasing the tax placed upon oil
exported from Mexico.
close watch was kept by news
papermen for any statements relative
to the petroleum situation as a result
of reports current in the United States
yesterday. The department of the
treasury through which any decree
would be issued, made public no press
bulletins during the evening.

HOT WEATHER THOUGHT

why do you like hot weather."
questioned one local citizen of an
other, when the subject of heat
was mentioned.
Wouldn't you rather have hot
weather than winter" returned the
one questioned.
Before an answer could be given,
the second person continued:
DO you remember that cold Sat
day in 1917"
The discussion on hot weather
lapsed. Both worthy citizens be-
came interested in citing events of
that well remembered day Each
told of nearly being frozen on the
trip to work. The beaming sun
above seemed less offensive.
