u. S.-Mexicon Agreement

MEXICO CITY, Nov. II LF.-Am-

hailed Mexico's agreement to settle
claims arising from the expropria-
ton of American owned lands as
"the latest evidence of the sincere
desire on the part Of both govern
ments to adjust their differences. :"
The United States diplomat also
declared the agreement insured
Joint cooperation for joint COM
pensation," for the seized lands
which the owners have valued at
$40, 1872 1888.
Mr.. Daniels, in a statement, called
attention to five other treaties or
agreements signed between the two
governments since 1888. Among
these was pact which provides for
payments of $500, 900 annually to
the United States for revolutionary

tie the dispute.
Mexico reaffirmed its contention
that through the land seizures 1t
had not acted contrary to the rules
and principles of international law
or of justice and equity in taking
land without immediate compensa-
ton.
THE Mexican government takes
pleasure, it's note said. "in recog-
nizing that the sentiments of cordial
friendship which unite our two
countries have in the end prevailed
over differences of a technical and
juridical order"
The settlement was widely re-
garded here as an important ad-
vance toward improvement of Amer
ican-Mexican relations, but great
difhculties still lie ahead in opening
up the discussions of a return or
compensation for the oil company

other properties that may be taken

Mexico had agreed to discontinue
expropriating United States-owned
farm lands except when compensa- l.
ton would be forthcoming imme-

There are already 253 claims on
file In the United States Embassy
here. Additional claims were ex-
pected to be entered by Americans

What effect the agreement with
the United States would have on
the claims of subjects OF other
governments was yet to be seen.
Britons lost heavily when Mexico
