by Congressman John w. Langley

tance attaches to Langley's commit

reported today that Congressman
Elliott (Rep1 of Indiana, the rank
ing Republican, would be given the
charimanship at the beginning of
the new session.

TREATY WITH
MEXICO
Anti-AIien Land Law Seen as
Cause for Understanding
Between Countries
BY WILLIAM r. FLYTHE
BY international News Service

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 27.-A
treaty of amity and commerce be-
tween the United States and Mexico
was seen here today as a solution
of the problems which have arisen
over the probable adoption of the
antialien land law measures by the
Mexican congress.
Negotiations for such treaty
automatically halted when President
Gales sent his sensational project
to Congress, are now being re-
neWed.
There is a belief in Mexico that
the United States has laws similar
to that which the Mexican con-
gress is about to pass, laws which
absolutely prohibit foreign opera
ton of any business OF industry.
Ambassador Sheffield has pointed
out that these laws are extremely
remote.
Sheffield viii rush negotiations
for the treaty that it be ready for
presentation to the Mexican con-
gress before it adjourns.

Asks Interparliamentary Union To

Gil and appeals from The President off.
Ger that the case of the British radical
prevented from attending The conference
by the American government be given no
notice by the confererc e, Ben Riley, La
Dor member Of the British Parliament,
brought the subject up, declaring it was
unfortunate that a fellow member of the

ing the conference.
While not denying the right of the
Washington government to exclude SAX
latvala, he asserted that the act had cOnvir-
ced his colleagues that unless the Coun-
Gil of this Union car make such arrange
ments as will enable all members to en-
Joy equal rights and to make their parti-
cular contribution to the great work for
which the Union exists, confidence will
be destroyed and a gn'at blow struck

Il therefore, desire to express the hope
that the Council at the earliest opportu-

SWiney, a member of the Irish Republic
can Party, for admission as a delegate
to the conference was denied today by
Baron Theodor Adelswaerd, president Of
