MEXICO CITY, March 9.-Reliable
sources are quoted here to the effect
that new negotiations are going on
between the law breaking American
oil companies and the government.

conversations are at present, but hope
is expressed that the Doheny, Sim

will finally yield on essential points.
Former President Obregon is sup
posed to be taking part in the dis
cussions, which are very secret.
Obregon Snubs King.
Obregon today declined to accept
a decoration Of the Royal Order Of
Saints Maurice and Lazarus from
King Victor Emanuel of Italy. He
based his refusal on the ground that
It would be inconsistent for the head
of the Mexican democratic revolution
to accept an insignia from a fascist
government which is inspired by ideals
contrary to the principles of the Next
can revolution.
General Obregon said he believed
it was because he had occupied the
position Of revolutionary president
which moved Italy's king to present
the decoration, and for that reason
he must refuse to accept. His refusal
was contained in letter written to
the foreign office
Teller BlamCs knights.
The ambassador to the United
States, Manuel c. Teller, in a public
statement declared he would probably
return to the United States, and said
that the recent mysterious note Of
the u. S. department of state to the
Mexican government was not of as
much importance as the public
thought.
He said, however, that there were
difficulties made for the Mexican EN-
bassy by the Knights of Columbus
and the Archbishop Of Baltimore. and
by certain senators in Washington.
Discussing these attacks, Teller said:
II have been charged with many
things. Baseless charges have been
hurled about that we have been try
ing to influence Senator Borah with
money. Is there anything more abb
surd?
Another absurd charge that we
are trying to buy the influence of
the New York World has been made.
How much money would the govern
ment have to have for such fantastic
schemes?"

Polish Workers Riot
When Unemployed Are
Lured by False "Ad"

WARSAW, March 9.-The I'M
employment problem in Poland
was given an ironic twist recently
when a typographical error in an
advertisement caused an American
firm to be beseiged by host of
workers out of jobs.
Ulen & Co., who are doing sewer
construction work in the city of
Czenstochau, advertised for forty
workers. Through some error this
appeared as 400. A riot broke out
when only forty were employed,
and the angry workers, who be-
lieved themselves to have been
cheated by a trick of the bosses,
did considerable damage in the Of
flee Of the company. Police inter
fered, and the disturbance was
quelled, but not before a number
of the workers had been hurt.

Senator Ayers
British Plot
u. S. Ruin
Cruiser to Nicaragua Helps
Spoil American Trade
BY CHARLES P. STEWART.
Exclusive Central Press Dispatch
to The DAILY WORKER.)

WASHINGTON, March .9-"Is
Great Britain's dispatch of the
cruiser Colombo to Nicaraguan
waters a threat against the Monroe
Doctrine?" asks Senator Henrik
Shipstead of Minnesota.
"Poohp he replies. Great Brit
ain disavows any such intention and
undoubtedly disavows it sincerely.
Nevertheless, the 'Colombo's' pres
ence off Nicaragua gives the state
department an excuse to plead that
the United States must intervene in
the new worlds troubles or other
powers will intervene to protect
their own nationals, thus violating
the Monroe Doctrine.
"The obvious effect is to strength
en- the state departments position
with the American people in such
situations as that in Nicaragua.
"Why this British policy of help
fulness toward the state depart
ment? Well, the British are playing
very deep game. If this game fa-
cilitates the state departments plans
in situations which do not concern
Great Britain, as in Nicaragua, Great
Britain may cOnceivably expect the
state department to favor British
plans in other fields which do con-
Germ her-shall we say, for instance,
in China?
Another consideration, doubtless,
is that such United States methods
as those used in Nicaragua antagon-
ize all Latin-America against this
country, with damage to our friend
ly relations, political prestige and
trade throughout the entire family of
republics to the southwark. What
ever we lose in this respect is SO
much gain to Europe, including
Great Britain.
as it not natural for the British
to make it as easy as possible fol-
the state department to pursue a
policy whereby they gain at our ex-
pense?
"a Pretext," He Says.
"As for Great Britain's claim that
her nationals in Nicaragua might
need a cruiser as refuge, that evil
IDENTIFY is the merest pretext. The
trouble in Nicaragua was an old
story long before the 'COlombo's' dis
patch to COrintO was suggested
When the Colombo finally was or
dered thither, United States marines
already fully dominated the situa-
ton and were giving full protection
to all foreign lives and property as
well as citizens of the United States
| there.
"Thus, the only genuine occasion
for the presence of British forces in
Nicaraguan waters would be the de-
liberate intention to defy the Monroe
Doctrine, which is too silly a theory
] for serious consideration"
Departments Answer.
While no individual official Of the
state department would make any
comment on Senator Shipstead's as
sertions, the division of current in.

In Paris Speech

LONDON, March 9.-The British
government will not stop construction
of any of its warships already being
build, w. C. Bridgeman, first lord
of the admiralty, announced in Com
mons today. Construction on new
ships, not yet begun, will be delayed

Only Conversation.
The foreign office stated today
that no official invitation for tri-
partite conference has been received
but that there have been informal
exchanges of views during the past
month.
The British would like to make the
proposed conference informal and
would prefer to refer to it as Soon

Washington has been advised that
any such conversation" must be
limited due to the absence Of France
and Italy.
Don't Expect Peace.
While the British government, for
diplomatic reasons is, willing to en-
ter a tri-partite naval disarmament

the British press is skeptical of such

DIRECT NEWS SERVICE

A rather queer paper or magazine was received by The Gateway in the last mail which, it is freely admitted, is little deep for our understanding. 1 The title is "The Pariah" and claims to be "A song for those who think" Perhaps that is why we don't get it.
 Another interesting catch-line on the front page reads"The first direct news service from He'll"

 It is published every now and then somewhere in the D. s. A., but there is an address, The Pariah Publishing O., P. o. Box 207O, San Francisco.

Success in Producing
an Artificial Comet

Two members Of one of our univer-
stiles obtained a very accurate repro
duction Of comets tail while expert
menting with the pressure of light
upon floating particles of extreme mi
nuteness.
A powder consisting of emery and
the spores of puffballs was put into a
vacuum tube from which the air was
exhausted as completely as possible
When the rays from an arc light were
concentrated upon the powder, then
the lighter particles were seen to be
blown out as If repealed by the light,
presenting a striking resemblance to
a comets tail.
According to the best opinion, this
Is analogous to the way In which the
