MARIE EN ROUTE
 FOR HOMELAND
Queen Returning to Rumania
 After 30 Days Visit

New York. Nov. 24 @-Queen Marie of Rumania and her children. Prince Nicolas and Princess Ileana today were aboard the steamship Berengaria, bound for Bucharest. where the king is sick.
 The queen bade farewell to "her dear America" by radio after 30- day tour of the United States in a special train that covered 10000 miles.
 Her last full day in the new world was filled with excitement, in some of which she did not share. The police bomb squad confscated bundles of incendiary circulars in which the rulers of Rumania were assailed for mistreatment of peasants and the laboring classes. A closer guard was kept over the queen but she was not informed of the con- fscation. No arrests were made.
 The queen occupied herself yes- terday with a stroll on fashionable Fifth and Park avenues. and thence to First avenue and the gas house district where children broke through police lines to win her smile by calling out. Hello. Queen" A dinner in her honor given by MT. and Mrs. Vincent Astor. a tugboat ride in New York harbor, and her radio speech.
 Goodbye, dear people of Ameri- ca. good bye America. blessed child of which progress and understand ing will come." she said in her radio talk. Do not shut your heart away from the Old World. for Old World and the New must live together and help each other and understand each other So goodbye. America. dear. beautiful America" She re- iterated previous statements that she had come to the United States simply to make friends and not to negotiate a loan.
 The visit to the East Side was made after the queen had thrown the switch that started a new 100,- 900 horse power generator of the New York Edison company. She was then taken to the First avenue plant of the company In order to get contrast between the old and the new.
 Princess Ileana and Prince Nicolas did not stay with their mother throughout the day. The princess motored to West Point where she had luncheon with some of the cadets, and both she and Prince Nicolas took enough time off for little tea dancing In the after noon. They closed the day by at- tending the theater. Prince Nicolas joined his mother only long enough to inspect the New York Edison plant where he displayed much in- terest in the massive machinery.

AMERICAS WAR DEBT
 ATTITUDE DEFENDED
Oakes Declares Against European Dislike For U. S.-Conden1ns
 "Odious Derisiyo Detractoes."

Boston, Nov. 24 R-A vigorous protest against recent foreign lam- poons on the American war debt policy, was sounded here today by George w. Ochs Oakes, editor of Current History magazine, in an ad- dress defending the attitude of this country.
 After referring to the Crusade of furious dislike which. he declared, reached climax last summer when everything American aboard seemed to be in disrepute. MT. Oakes de- clared:
 Our attitude was the most unsel- fish act of a powerful nation record cd in history"
 Recalling the vast acquisitions of territory and population that ac- crued to the allies, he said.
 "s Contemplate the lavish generosity of America, whose states manship rescued her (Europe) from acute perlls of interminable warfare, whose capital aided the desolats land, America which asked no separations, which demanded no ter ritory and i've may be pas- doned for deep resentment at the ingratitude of our derisive and odious detractora" p"5 .

DEMAND SHOWDOWN 0N MEXICAN LAND
American Citizens to Ignore
 CauS' Property Laws

Washington. Nov. "A R-Four notes published today by the state department without comment dis close the United States and Mexico approaching showdown on the is- sue of American property rights and the Mexican governments policy of nationalizing oil and mineral re- sources.
 This phase of the troubled rela- tions between the two governments hinges chiefly on the requirement in New Mexican land laws requiring alien owners of such property to sign away their rights to diplomatic protection of their home govern ments for their holdings by January 1. or forfeit them to the Mexican government
 American oil and land owners are not expected to accede to this de- mand and, further. the state depart ment has reasserted "the principle of international law that it is both the right and duty of government to pro- tect it's citizens against any invasion of their rights of person or proper ty by foreign government, and that this may not be contracted away by the individual"
 The Gales government. meanwhile has given no indication of receding from its position that property rights legally acquired prior to 1917 by Americans and other foreigners must adjust themselves to the new prin- ciples of standardization fin general interests of the nation." In the cor respondence lies hint as to the pos sible course of the United States if Mexico persists in it's position: Withdrawal of its ambassador. or even of recognition of the Gales government
 Clear. though not specific, warning is contained in the state depart ment's communication that Mexican American relations will be endanger- ed If Mexico deprives American citizens "of the full ownership and enjoyment" of their legally acquired property rights. and it is further set forth that recognition would not have been extended to Mexico with out assurances, given in 1923 that such right would be respected.
 The Mexican government, on the other hand. holds that special pains" were taken by the adminis- tration of General Obregon. Gales predecessor as president of Mexico during the negotiations which led to resumption of diplomatic relations, n : to admit conditional recogni- tion subject to the outcome of the conferences" of the 1923 joint com mission.
 In its last note, the Mexican gov ernment called for concrete cases in which recognized principles of in- ternational law may have been vii plated or may be violated in disre- gard of legitimate interests of Amer ican citizens since in such cases it will be disposed to repair such vio- lations" READ HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS

HARVARD SILENT
 0N PEACE PLANS
But Meeting With Princeton Is
 Not Yet Arranged

Camb bridge, Mass. Nov. A R- Harvard undergraduate steps toward reconciliation with the Princeton student body were in nebulous way today with Crimson spokesmen de- c,dedly reticent about disclosing any developments there may have been at last nights meeting of the student council.
 The council presumably met to name five delegates to meet a stmi' lar group from the New Jersey insti- tuition and to discuss ways and means to restore good feeling and sports competition after the recent athletic brush between the Crimson and the Tiger.
 But when the meeting was over. and a protracted session that fol- lowed at which Leo Daley. president and half dozen others were in con- ference had broken up, Daley said he was sorry but nothing could be given out.
 He was asked If committee to meet Idu pCch oppo1iisSo' if Harvard would go through with the peace move, or if there had been a hitch, and If there was any state ment that could be made.
 The only comment he would make was that another meeting of the council had been called for Friday. Daley and Joseph Prendergast. head of the Princeton student body, met in New Haven, last Saturday and agreed to appoint undergraduate peace delegates" for a later con- ference.
 Harvard Princeton peace move had received impetus earlier this week when the board of overseers Of Harvard adopted resolution nan1- ing a committee to confer with the athletic committee and the student council to discuss the situation.
 Princeton severed all athletic rela- tions with Harvard following the Princeton victory at the stadium when it was told by Harvard that the, Yale football game was the only fixture on the Crimson gridiron schedule. Princeton had sought equality of status and its action ter minated the Big Three of eastern collegiate fame.

Henry Ford Now Plans
 To COmpete With Devil

New York, Nov. 24 P-Henry Ford plans to compete with the devil who proverbially finds work for idle hands to do, 1t was revealed today in an interview with the automo obile man in worlds work. Ford's plan is simply to get honest work into the idle hands before the devil has a chance to set them at dishonest work.
 Crime, Ford says, is largely an expression of desire to get easy money, and is committed in the main by youths not being taken care of by industry.
 "As an experiment." he says, i've have instructed our employment of ticers to take on 5000 boys between Is and 20 as quickly as possible. put them at mems work, and pay fn- dependence' wages"
