the new ambassador from France, told
the Chief Executive that France is
resolved to settle the debts contracted
for her defense as promptly and as
fully as her present and future possi-
bilities will allow"-which, Of course,
is no more and no less than has been
said repeatedly by official France. Mr..

and oil laws, regardless of the protest
of the United States. Last week For
eign Minister SaenZ issued an official
statement in which he denied that
these laws were either retroactive or
confiscatory. He said they are based
on general principle, accepted in the
United States, that foreigners cannot
acquire certain rights unless they pre-
viously declare their intention Of be-
coming Mexican citizens; but he
pointed out that the laws permit
rights legally acquired by foreigners
prior to their enforcement, "to be kept
by those who have acquired them un-
til their DEATH"
Secretary Of State Kellogg took is-
sue with the statements of Senor
Saenz. 'The position Of this govern.

and still is that the so-called land and
petroleum laws contain provisions
which are plainly retroactive and con-
fiscatory in their effect upon property
rights heretofore legally acquired and
held by American citizens In Mexico
under prior existing Mexican laws.
This position, which does not in any
sense question Mexico's sovereign
right to legislate on her domestic con.
Germs, has been made perfectly clear

as an oscilla tfon control in some
