Debs and other war prisoners are pardoned at this time, John G. Emery, national commander of the American Legion, has wired Presi- dent Harding that such action would be interpreted as a license to disre- gard law and order. The legion commander assured the President that no action the adminjstration could take would draw the fire of ex-service men more promptly or unitedly thah thie pardon of Debs. The action®was prompted by press dispatches which stated that the President had received delega- tions from numerous organizations urging such action, and that the mat- ter would have carly consideration. Legion _officials who have closely watched developments of this case for months decided that it was time to act, and hundreds of telegrams from all partg of the country are ex- pected to reach Washington today, conveying the same warning from individual legion posts.

By the Assoclated Press. MEXICO CITY, July 30.—There is but slight hope that article 27 of the Mexican. constitution, providing for nationalization of oil and other natural resources, will receive cen- sideration during the present ses- sion of congress, according to state- ments made by leaders in the cham- ber of deputies‘to newspaper men last night. They added, however, ‘| that they believed the question would be taken .up when the regular ses- sion opens next September. Indications that the liberal-consti- tutional party still retains its ma- ority in the chamber of deputies were seen last night as a result of the roll call for the election of monthly officers. It was leaders of this party who were credited last Tuesday with declining to grant President Obregon’'s request for ex- traordinary powers in revising ar- ticle 27. This action was taken de- spite the fact that the party claimed Obregon as its leader. - 5 Obregon Denies Reports. Dispatches published in the Unit- ed States to the effect that the cham- ber of deputies had refused the re- quest. were denied by President Ob- regon. An__investigation thereupon disclosed that no formal vote had Dbeen taken on the matter, as a for- mal canvass of the liberal-constitu- tional party, in control of the cham- ber, showed that g majority were against such action, and that the party leaders had adopted a resolu- tion to that effect. This action was said at the time to have caused a split between' Obrégon and his party, but political circles now understand that a reconciliation has been ef- fected, and that within the next few days a resolution of “confidence” in the president will be proposed and probahly adopted by. the entire party. Should this résolution be adopted, it would not necessarily mean, how- ever. that President QObregon's re- quest for extraordinary powers to adjust article 27 would be granted, | here. in the opinion of political €ircles. i DOCTORS; FEES LIMITED.

BALTIMORE, Md., July 30.—The board of trustees of the Johns Hop- kins_ Hospital has. issued the follow- ing/dictum: e maximum fee that any surgeon ought to charge for an operation, no matter how wealthy the patient may be, is $1,000.

The princi- | pal Kemalist line of defense is 100 | kilometers west of Angora on aj mountain line.
