Foremost on the list Of calls planned
by the republican nominee was one on
his old fellow townsman and now his
democratic opponent, Governor Charles

Mr.. Dawes declared he considered

Commission to Adjust
Claims Arising Be-

Y Welcomed Here

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-The task
of adjusting claims long pending be-
tween citizens Of the United States and
Mexico and provided for in the conven-
tion drafted by Representatives of the
two governments in conference held in
Mexico City was started on its way to
completion today at the first meeting
here called for organization purposes
of the American Mexican general claims
commission
After a formal welcome by Secretary
Hughes no time was lost on the COM
missions program from the business Of
preparing ways and means for dischaTg-
ing the work laid out for them by the
convention dealing with general claims.
The meeting of the general claims
commissioners follows that recently
held in Mexico City by the special
claims commission and marks the begin
ming of active work by the two bodies
on the settlement of all claims existing
between the two governments and their
respective nations since 1865. The acts
creating the two commissions were
drafted by Charles B. Warren former
ambassador to Mexico and John Barton
Payne of the American Red Cross rep

which friendly relations between the
two governments were resumed after an
interruption Of several years.
II Is expected that the commissions
will be engaged in their respective la
bors in Mexico City and Washington
