MARSHALL SAYS
RECOGNIZE.
MEXICO
Former Vice President Urges
Friendship II American
Rights Are Secured.
By TOM EVERITT.
81 \ Titan Newa Service.


Former Vice.president Thomas r,
Marshall believes that the present
Mexican government should be
recognized by the United States,
provided the investments Of Amer.
lean citizens in Mexico are properly
safeguarded.
The former vice.president today
said: s.
think in the past that many
American citizens made investments
in Mexico under the laws of
Mexico and that these property
rights should be guaranteed no mat.
ter what the present policy Of the
Mexican government may be. IT
that is done, and the safety Of law.
abiding American citizens guar
anteed, the present government
should be recognized.
He also stated it as his belief
that If these things come about, the
commercial advantages to the
United States will be very great.
Under those conditions" he said,
the recognition of the Mexican
government would be very valuable
TO the commerce of the United
States and of the American people.
and II that commerce is conducted
upon friendly basis, peace and
good win will come to pass"
United States Government sta.
tistics show that this country ex-
ported $S,3S6.S54 worth of merchan.
disc to Mexico in February, 1929,
which would total $100,642, 24S for
twelve months. should that average
be sustained during that period.
Under more favorable conditions
than have existed for several years
past, it Is believed by business men,
that exports from the United States
to Mexico will grow to a tremend-
Gus volume.

WATCH RADIATOR
SOLUTION CLOSELY
WINTER DRIVERS SHOULD SEE
THAT ALCOHOL CONTENT IN
RADIATOR is KEPT SUFFICl-
EMIT TO PREVENT FREEZING
HYDROMETER TEST is BEST.

Arvada automobile drivers, who
keep their cars on the road even in
the winter months in most cases use
an anti-freezing solution, particular
ly those whose garage is unheated, OF
those who park for any time out-of-
doors.
Local dealers who sell denatured
alcohol, which is probably the most
used and least expensive, call atten-
ton to the fact that care must be
used to secure efficient results.
Evaporation, it is pointed out,
weakens the resistance Of the solu-
ton, and in extremely cold weather
the alcohol content of the radiator
should be carefully tested.
The best and surest mechanical
method Of testing the solution is the
hydrometer, an efficient one being
obtainable at reasonable cost.
The following table indicates the
proportions to be used for protection
at the temperatures listed and shows
the corresponding hydrometer read
ings for each solution:

Late Reports
on Road Conditions

Col. William NJ. Aver of Oakland,
chairman of the State highway COM
mission said Monday that if abnor-
mally warm weather continues. it
may be expected to have unsatisfac-
tory conditions on roads all over the
State for several days.
The. highway commission Monday
received word that cars are running
between Rockland and Bangor and
this line at the present time is in
good condition. A failure occurred
sometime Sunday at Lincolnville
Beach, where an old bridge was left
in the highway when it was rebuilt a
few years ago. The place has been
lighted and guarded by red flags. It
is passable but traffic must proceed
with caution.
Reports indicate that there are
four extremely bad places between
Burnham and Newport. so bad in fact
that on Sunday it was necessary to
have teams to pull cars through those
bad holes.
Information received Monday indi-
Gates that there are several places
between Fairfield and Burnham that
are bad, and the road apparently is
growing worse at the present time
This 10 due. Of course. to the warm
spell OF Saturday which started the
