SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
B Club Hear
Dr. JohnH. Foster

Dr.. John II. Foster, IN Q talk be-
fore the Waterbury Business and
Professional Women's club last eve
ming, outlined the advance made IN
medical science in the past two
years. He brought out as one Of
the main points Of progress the dis
covery Of the new drugs, sulphanila-
mide and sliiphapyridine. The new
drugs aid greatly in treating lobar
pneumonia and has cut the death
rate greatly If administered within
Ae hours after the start Of the dis
ease.
J DR.. Foster gave an interesting re-
port on the conditions In China
where he spent several years at
Yale-in-C China. He said that China
had a fine bodybuilding program
and many excellent highways had
been built but that the same high
ways built by the Chinese were now
being destroyed by them in an eff
fort to halt the Japanese invasion.
The Japanese are constantly aim
ing to destroy the health Of the
Chinese and do all in their power
to supply opium to the Chinese.
The political powers In China be-
lieve that the future of the land
depends greatly upon the educated
students and therefore are striving
to protect the education of Chinese
youths.

tinuation Of the heart suit. Mr..
Bruelheide explains that quite often
1t does not pay to force the declarer
to trump. If the hearts are con-
tinued, declarer will win four spades,
five clubs and the ace Of diamonds
for 10 tricks.
In order to defeat this contract
North and South must establish
their own high cards. They have a
heart trick and spade trick; East
for his bidding probably has the
king Of clubs. On the assumption
that North, who has done q little
bidding, may have the queen Of dia-
mond after winning the first heart
and Of course this shift will de-
feat the contract.

lency. the Secretary Of State, allusion
Is made to the fact that during the
last IS years American interests in
Mexico have suffered at the hands
Of the government Of my country,
mentioning in that connection, in
addition to the cases cited previously
therein, that the services on the
foreign debt and on that OF the
railroads are not up to date. I con-
slider that the suspension Of the said
services doe snot constitute an ex-
ceptional case in the world, since
the phenomenon Is due to causes
Of q general charcter, but, still fur
ther as I must point out, to the
fact that the possible resumption of
the same was, before the expropria-
ton, subject to negotiations which
weer already well advanced and if
they were suspended 1t was due to
the campaign undertaken aginst
Mexico by the oil companies with
the aid OF certain governments, US
ing, among other means, the boy
colt to prevent all sales of our oil
in foreign countries or else restrict
ing it considerably by the adoption
Of tariff barriers, especially the So
called quotas, producing an appreci-
able limitation of the possibilities of
payment by Mexico.
Your excellency's Government con-
cludcs by proposing that the two
governments agree to submit to ar
bitration the oil question, investing
q tribunal with the necessary au-
thority, not only to determine the
amount that is to be paid to the
American nationals deprived of their
property, but also the means by
which its decision shall be executed
to make certain that adequate and

Nevertheless, and although on other
grounds, it Is q pleasure for my gov
ernment to recognize that there is
no divergence with the Government
Of your country with respect to the
obligation. imposed on the Mexican
nation by its own laws, to make
the payment Of the proper In
domination.
In referring, in the note to which
I reply, to the animation that the
statement that the decision of Mex
ican courts should be awaited can
not be reassuring. assume that 1t
is only meant to allude to the
length OF time that the progress Of
the valuation proceedings would be
delayed. Your excellency's (Gov-
ernment's) note likewise observes
that two years have elapsed since
the appropriation of the oil prop
critics was effected and that no
agreement has been reached to date.
It is true that there have been de-
lays in the legal proceedings seek
ing to determine the value of the
appropriated properties, but 1t is to
be noted that such delays have been
due to the fact that my Govern
ment has had to wait for the ex-
piration of the periods which the
law grants and the occasion for
which has been the various omis-
sions, petitions and appeals of the

Of Force Renewed.
For this reason your excellency's
Government makes an appeal to
continental solidarity In support Of
the principle Of arbitration, its use
being all the more to be recon-
mended because period Is involved
In which q growing disregard for
order appears to prevjl and an aim
to substitute force for pacific meth
ods Of settling these questions in q
friendly manner.
I take pleasure In recognizing that
Mexico concurs in the ideas of your
excellency's government, making q
declaration Of its faith, firmly re-
newed, that the time will come when
force will be eliminated as an in
strument for settling conflicts be-
tween states, only the pacific method
adopted by. our continent being en-
ployed. II any country OF America
has constantly maintained its trust
IN arbitration, 1t has been Mexico,
which has always scrupulously COM
piled with arbitral decisions, even in
cases in which the decision has
been adverse to it, such as the re-
cent Clipperton Island one, nor has
1t failed to recognize the advisable
ity Of availing itself Of this method
for settling international differ
ences, although in the case of Cha
mizal = a.decision that was favorable
to 1t has been pending execution
by your excellency's government
since the year 1911.
However, my government consid-
ers that arbitration must not be
admitted except when the nation

companies themselves before the
courts, for which reason the latter.
until . few days ago. were (not)
able to render their decisions as to
the legal recourses availed Of by the
companies. Nevertheless, I must
state in this respec. that, nothwith-
standing the foregoing, the judicial
valuation proceedings have pro-
gressed considerably during the legal
,,>eriods and will shortly be cor
clMded.
Furthermore. the good ofIices Of
your Government had been en-
ployed In seeking other forms Of
settlement suggested by the com.
panies which excluded payment
and, therefore, the determination
OF the value of the appropriated
properties, since the companies have,
IN substance and invariably, sought
the illegal return Of their properties.
Conilscation Denied
In Taking Of Properties.
Your excellency's Government In
sists, as on other occasions, in main
tanning the opinion that to expro-
pirate, without just and prompt
compensation, Is confiscation ant
does not cease to be so because there
may be the express desire to pay
at some time in the future. Mexico
considers that it is not in such q
situation, since it not only has mani-
tested its desire to pay, but also has
expressed unequivocally its readi-
ness to do so, having done every
thing that 1t should in accordance
with its own laws, in order that
ultimately the total amount may be
fixed that is to be paid.
In the note signed by his excel

the principle was clearly established
Of the subjection Of aliens to na.
tonAl Jurisdiction and local laws.
In. the reservation to the arbi-
tration treaty signed at Washing

the differences which fall under
the jurisdiction of the courts shall
not be the subject Of arbitration
proceedings, except because Of de-
NAL OF justice. and until the decision

In support 6f this principle, the
