 Article 27 of the Mexican Constitution has been the main breeder of misunderstanding and mischief between this country and Mexico, and Article 27 providing for the naturalization of petroleum de posits, has been dclared by the Mexican Supreme Court The coniscaton of Amer can property thus passes out of the realm of de- bate It never did belong there. Exigencies of Mex- can politics and the famous Latin point of honor reinforced by mischief makers on this side of the Rio Grande created real misunderstanding out of an unreal situation. Mexico in her own interests could not practice confscaton of foreign property. II was only a question whether a Mexican Govern ment could be found strong enough say so under pressure from abroad whether Mexico should be allowed to admit the fact her own initiative It does not matter how far Secretary Hughes helped Mexico to speak out.
