WATSON ONINDORSES
FRAZIER IN PARTY
Indiana Senator Favors Re.
turn of North Dakotan to
G. O. P. Fold.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

The move to cement the Republi-
cans Of the Senate for the next
Congress took another lurch forward
today. when Senator James E, Wat
son of Indiana. chairman Of the
Republican committee on committees
and assistant leader Of the Senate,
said that he favored personally the
restoration of Senator Frazier of
North Dakota to his status as a mem
Der of the party organization.
An appeal to Senator Watson as
chairman of the committee ors COM
mittees was made recently by Senator
Borah of Idaho to reAnstate Senator
Frazier in his committee assignments
as a Republican. Frazier was one Of
the quartet Of Republican insurgents
who were read out Of the party cou1-
ellis following the 1924 elections. be-
cause they supported the late Senator
La Toilette for President.
Watson Is Improved.
Senator Watson. still walking with
a limp as a result of an automobile
accident many weeks ago, was in his
office here today for the first time
since last July. His physical condi-
tion is much improved, he said. He is
satisfied with the result of the cleo
tions in Indiana. which returned him
to the Senate for the next six years
by about 1900 votes-within a few
votes Of the total by which hs won
the first time he was elected to the
Senate.
1t is Senator Watson's purpose to
consult with Senator Curtis of Kan.

Ladd. To keep Frazier out of the

felt that no good purpose 'could be

MEXICO CITY. November IA
group of about 20 members of the
Chamber Of Deputies, representing
various political factions. has sent to
President Gales a message upon the
latest note of the United States Gov
ernment to Mexico regarding the land
and oil laws.
1t Is asserted that the note forward
ed by Secretary Of State Kellogg Is
reported to contain demands incom-
tpatible with the respect due MeXico's

1T is insistently reported" says
the message of the deputies, that the

bodies demands incompatible with the
respect due to Mexicos sovereignty

Ready For All Dangers.
THE same reports say that you are
willing to perish rather than submit.

In the opinion of Gen. Alvaro
Obregon. former President. it is
astounding that Nicaragua should ask
the United States to intervene in that
country against Mexican interference
when the United States is openly
violating the sovereignty and dignity
of Nicaragua
In an interview, Gen. Obregon as
serted that he did not believe Mexico
had nterfered in the Nicaraguan
revolution. because when we have
been forced to revolt in Mexico, we
never have had enough military ele
ments. and either took them from
our enemies or brought them from
the United States" -,
Astounding. Says Obregon.
1T is astounding" Gen. Obregon
added. ITO attempt to condemn
the domestic affairs of Nicarag qua
and to ask the United States to aid
in preventing such shameful inter
ference when the United States is
openly violating the sovereignty and
dignity of Nicaragua.
Il shall be glad If the Mexican
social movement is developed in other
countries. because 1T represents the
welfare of the many against the
fears of the few.
Intense general interest and not
little excitement has been caused by
Washington dispatches declaring
that the United States Government
views with concern outside influence
on Nicararllan affairs.
The official attitude of the Mexican
government is a denial that 1t has
interfered in Nicaraguan politics or
revolutions, or has promoted any
flibustering expeditions to Nicara
qua. Government off1cials. however
thus far have declined to make any
direct official comment. because the
United States Governments attitude
has not been brought officially to the
attention Of this government
Both the foreign office and the
American charge. Arthur Schoenfeld
assert that no representations have
been made to the Mexican govern

Statements by Adolfo de la Huerta,
