TUESDAY, JULY 5, 1921 It is understood that all months pay. Reports from the Tam- pico district indicate there has been a marked cessation of work during the - past week, especially among Amer- ican concerns. Gen. Arnulfo Gomez, commander of federal troops in that region, reported yesterday that more than 10,000 workmen had been dis- missed within the last few days by foreign oil companies. No reason for their action has been announced by the companies, but it is understood to be fn act of reprisal against the re- cent decree increasing the export taxgs Qn petroleum.

Coincident with reports of this situation in northeast- era Mexico come dispatches frova the state of Tabasco, farther south, that several Oil gushers have been discov ered there within the past few days and that the field gives indication of being very rich a ee W.
