Obregon Governments Supreme
Court Decision Aids RECOGNITION. 4

H.
Washington, Aug. 4.-One of the
greatest barriers to American recog-
milton of the Obregon government
was removed here today.
The Mexican embassy delivered to
the state department, certified copies
of five decisions rendered by the Mex
lean supreme court to the effect that
the famous article 81 of the Carrapza
constitution is not retroactive and
cannot be used to confiscate American
properties.
Article 27 of the Mexican constitu-
ton has long been the stumbling
block in the pathway of the better re-
lations between Mexico and the
United States. This provision estab-
fishes the claim of the Mexican gov
eminent to all subsoil properties in
Mexico. Whether this clause could be
construed as retroactive, thus jcap-
ardizing American oil properties in
Mexico, oil being a subsoil property,
has been ore of the biggest factors in
the Mexican situation

nice burial by some of his non-admir-

Rubc has passed his prime but etill
ranks as formidable southpaw when
he is going good. He sprang INTO
fame in 1905 when the New York

A. A. team for him. Rube failed TO
shine right off the bat, however. and
