DI | etary of 1101, Ambassador Morrow Is Winning By CLARENCE DUBOSE (A. P. Correspondent) MBXICO CITY, Nov. 16.—Ham and eggs diplomacy goes marching on successfully in Dwight W. Morrow rounds out his first year as American Ambassa- dor. During that year he has ended, as an international issue, the long- vexing and sometimes threatening oil controversy. Sgemingly, he has paved the way for gradual adjustment of the land question, in the sense of its adverse effect upon individual American inter. ests. He has brought about an era of good will Acting in a purely private capacity, he once had the religious question ap- proaching a modus vivendi between the Mexican government and the Catholic church, Untoward circum- stances intervened and the pros.; pect was not realized. Morrow's good offices as an individual, not as an ambassador, are still being .exerciscd and persons in touch with the situation has not aban- donad hope of an improvement. en Morrow reached Mexico, Mexico as| Fame in Mexico |row has succeeded in substituting the friendliest relations the coun- tries have ever known for many years. | He has done this without writing 'a note. Morrow's year in Mex- lico is one of the few periods in | history, and the only twelvemonths in decades devoid of a single note from one government to the othgr (over some serious issue or gen- leral cuestion of policy. Notes are sent almost every day over routine matters of business. But Morrow has sent no notes involv- ing general important questions of relations. His method has ‘been personal discussion with the man running Mexico, made possible by his friendly contact with that man, President Calles. It seems he will have similar relations with Emilio Portes Gil, provisional pres- ident elect, who will succeed Cal- I1es November 30. And, of course. he will continue to be a friend of Calles, who will remain in Mex- ico City after he leaves the presi- dency and who, in or out of office, will be a powerful figure in Mexi. can affairs.
