EMMISSARIES OF

in WASHINGTON
Get Definite Impression
That U. S. Maintains
Hands Off Policy.
WILL PROTECT RIGHTS
No Official PrOnOuncement
on Mexican Religious Sit
uatiOn Expected.
(By Dispatch A. P. wire)

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-Emmis-
saries of the knights of Columbus
who called today on Secretary Kel-
logg are believed to have gained a
definite impression that the hands
off policy of the government regard
ing Mexicos domestic religious diff
ficulties is to stand unchanged.
At the same time, however, prop
erty and personal rights of al
Americans in Mexico will continue to
be protected whenever there is an
attempted invasion of rights granted
by treaty or conferred by interna-
tional> or Mexican law.
The secretary conferred for more
than an hour with j. A. Flaherty,
supreme knight, and d. J. Callahan,
treasurer, of the national organiza-
tion of the knights of Columbus,
who discussed with him the ,resolu-
tion adopted at the Philadelphia
meeting of the order demanding
that the Washington government take
some specified action in connection
with the religious turmoil in Mexico.
BY agreement neither Kellogg, nor
his callers had anything to say for
publication after the conference.
A few hours later, Kellogg was
en- route to his conferences with
President Coolidge at the White Pine
camp, which he expects to reach late
tomorrow.
In view of the secretary's silence
here, it is not expected that any
formal statement OF policy as to the
religious situation in Mexico will be
forthcoming from any official quar-
ter, at least until after his discus
sion of foreign affairs with the
president. Other aspects of the prob
lem of safe guarding the legitimate
enterprises of American nationals in
Mexico will enter into their talks,
but for the moment, the religious
dispute overshadows other matters,
this country.
The state department continues to
be flooded with communications on
the religious question. Many but
not all of them, come from Catholic
sources and are either specific or
general protests against conditions IN
Mexico under the new religious laws.
A substantial number are aid to be
declarations in support of the gov
ernment's policy of non-interference
unless the rights of an American
citizen should be adversely affected.
