|U.S.RECOG|V|I|ON
PUT UP. TO D. 0BREGON D.
This Government Ready to Act
When Anti confiscatory
Pledge ls Given
GUARANTEEAlS DEMANDED

Washington, May S.--The American
| Government is standing unalterabiy iof
the guarantees requested of the Oprc
gon regime in Mexico nearly year ago.
50 far, General Obreg0n and his ad-
yiscrs have given no definite assurances
that the guarantees Will be given II,
order to make formal recognition Of
their Government possible.
The departments g attitude still Is that
the Mexican authorities must give abb
solute protection against confiscntory
action in regard to foreign property.
Beyond this, officials say. this Gov
ernment has not gone. 1t is declared
there has been no attempt BY the de.
partment's representatives to add any
demands which would interfere. with
Mexican internal affairs or would re.
quire special concessions to the United
States in the future.
Such information ns the department
has encourages officials to believe that
the formal pledges they require may
eventually be given. 1t is pointed out,
however, that although personal let
ters and some press dispatches from
Mexico have quoted the Obregon au-
Department has no official Information
whatever to that effect.
In explaining their position State De-
partmcnt officials said the United States
Government had not and would not ask
for any special guarantees for Ameri-
can capital in Mexico. The American
request. II was said. was simply that
rights and titles acquired under Mex.
icO's own laws should be respected. If
that guarantee is granted the depart.
ment was said to take the position that
American capitalists then could com.
pete In the Mexican field II they desired
under an open door arrangement and
without asking special favors.
Many intimations that the Mexican
authorities might be favorably disposed
toward the American request have
reached the State Department. but Of
1cials here will not be satisfied with
anything less than a formal pledge by
the Obrcgon Government itself. The
situation, therefore, is the same us it
was when the terms Of recognition were
submitted to Mexico City in June, 1921.
Mexico City. May Shy A. P.)--
As the Mexican Government is not rec
ognized by the United States. Foreign
Minister Pani has announced that an
official exequatur cannot be issued to
Claude I. Dawson. recently appointed
