Mexican Problem
To Be Considered
By Sec'y. Hughes
American Charge at Mexico
City Summoned for Impor.
tant Conference-Attitude.
Much Like Wilson's.

Washington, April l5--Considera.
ton OF the Mexican problem by Sec.
ietary Hughes was forecast today by
formal announcement that Charles
T. Summerlin, American charge a,
Mexico City had been called to
Washington for conference. Mr.
Summerlin left the Mexican capital
last night.
1t is understood that in general
the attitude of the government will
not differ greatly from that indi-
Gated by former Secretary Colby
when he informed the Mexican gov
ernment, that a signed acknowledge
ment OF its intention to safeguard
the lives and interests OF Americans
must be one OF the preliminary steps
to recognition.
Reports to the department OF con-
ditions in, Mexico have varied widely
Some have represented President
Obrcgon as the victim of so much
intrigue and open opposition as to
threaten his tenure OF Office, while
others from persons as equally trust
worthy have insisted that the MeNi-
can president was more than holding
ais own and restoring order and
security.
The American policy, however,
will not be based wholly on condi-
tons in Mexico, it was explained.
Official reassurances OF the future
policy OF the Mexican government in
dealing with Americans will be in
sisted upon, and it is understood
that modification of article q of
the constitution for naturalization
of oil, or at least satisfactory assur-
ance that it will not be retroactive in
its effect will be demanded, before
recognition is extended
