MEXICAN CRISIS
BEFORE COOLIDGE;
WORRY ADMITTED
President Expected to Con-
fer With Kellogg and
Ambassador.
BIZ United Press

WASHINGTON, Nov. l3.-PreS!-
dent Coolidge is concerned over the
increasingly difficult relations be-
tween this Government and Mexico.
He is scheduled to confer today
with Ambassador Sheffield and Sec
rotary of State Kellogg on Mexico's
continued refusal to satisfy the
State Departments demands regard
ing alleged confiscatory provisions
of the alien land and oil laws. The
American note delivered to Mexico
this week was much sharper than
the earlier protests.
Aid Revolts
In addition to the long dead ock
of American claims ard repei ted
bandit attacks on Americans, tho
President is understood to he espn-
cially concerned over alleged activi-
ties of Mexicans aiding Central
American revolts endangering United
States interests.
Reports from abroad that the
United States has delivered an ulti-
matum to Mexico are characterized
here as much exaggerated.
But 1t is known Secretary Kellogg
considers the recent Mexican develop.
ments serious enough to justify spe-
cial conferences with Senator Borah
and other members of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee.
Recalls Last Year
The Coolidge Shefield- Kellogg con
ference set for today is causing un-
easiness in diplomatic quarters be
cause Of its similarity with a confer
ence among the same officials last
year, which was followed by the
historic Kellogg statement on Mexi-
can relations. That statement placed
the Gales Government ION trial be-
fore the world" and intimated this
Government would break diplomatic
relations unless American demands
were met.

Ii
soned performer who combines in
gratifying measure the speed and ball
hawk attributes of Earl McNeely and
the punching proWeSs OF Joe Harris.
the alternating pair whose united eI.
forts he will be called upon to match.
Tobin can cover almost Il not rs
much ground as McNeely in snarin:s
flies, ana while not SO long q nttter
as Moon, is far superior as a batsna1 y
to Earl and much more accomplished
than the Californian at the business
OF topping the batting order.
In the humble opinion OF Sam Rice,
who this year is slated for d steady
diet OF middle gardening to make
room in right field for Tobin. the lat
ter should prove u tremendous asset
to the team. Rice Is a keen observer,
and from a decade Of toll as patrol
man in local livery Is qualified to pass
Judgment on the capabilities OF an
outfielder. He is not given to idle
chatter either, SO his estimate of
Tobin voiced TO this writer just a
week ago in Tampa should have con-
siderable weight.
"Getting Tohin was one Of the best
moves this club ever made said
Rice "IIe has shown enough at Hot
Springs and here since training start
ed TO convince me that he is In first
class physical shape, and that is all
that's necessary fo.' him to star with
US. because his ability is we'll known.
He is Il crackcriacll little ball player
and is ticllled to death to be shifted
from St. Louis to Washington. II
there is anything the matter with his
arm it hasn't been apparent in what
I've seen him do. He can throw
fully as well as the general run OF
outfielders and knows moro about
running than a great majority.
Il look to see Tobin have q great
year, not just % good one. but q great
one, and that will mean Il whole lot
to us.
