MEXICO AND U. 3. |- ON BETTER TERMS Friendly Spirit Marking Steps Toward Settlement of Land Law Issue. BY DAVID LAWRENCE. ‘The acute feeling between the gov- srnments of Mexico and the United States has been superseded by a sen: timent of pronounced friendliness in the controversy over the petroleum land laws. While the exact formula for a solution has mot been found as vet, the spirit of approach to a set- tlement is better today than it has been since the new land laws were passed by the Mexican Congress in December. Secretary Kellogg has found that I dealing with the Mexican govern- ment the latter can be relied upon to see that international obligation as well as a spirit of comity requires an examination of every internal act in the light of external effects. Retronctive Law Opposed. In asserting soverelgn rights Mex:. o is looked upon as exercising a natu- 1l and inherent prerogative, but the (uestion of making a law retroactive which might be confiscatory is some- hing®which all nations have looked upon as a delicate problem which can- uot be handled in one-sided fashion. The desire of Mexico to control her subsoll rights and to regulate foreign swnership is viewed by American of- iclals as legitimate. It is merely a juestion of how these laws shall oper- Mexico has not yet proclaimed r regulations which give effect to new laws. The Mexican government, herefore, is somewhat disturbed that srematurely there should have been nferences ~drawn _that conflscatory wcts would follow. It still remains pos- sible for the Mexican government by s regulations to draw a line between onfiscation, which is by international law recognized as unfriendly, and con- trol. Reciprocity at Stake. Thus the United States Government hus the sovereign right to require any diplomad officers of foreign govern- ments to conform solutely to Amer- ican laws in their residence here. But such @ step would be followed by the withdrawal of reciprocal privileges abroad. The examples could be multi- plied of the same thing. The whole problem, therefore, becomes one of reciprocity. Would Mexico be justi- a matter of policy, in enforc- me of the laws she has lly if by so doing she with the United eign governments? American officials think it would be unwise and are urging in a spirit of friendliness that the solution be based upon such considerations. In working out the dilemma Secre- tary Kellogg has at his side Charles B. Warren of Detroit, formerly Am- hassador to Mexico, the man who worked out one of the most difficult of all Mexican questions—namely, the ceneral and special claims growing out of the revolutionary disturbances and the passage of agrarian laws that held to be confiscatory. Mr. Warren flas the confidence of the AMexicans to an extraordinary extent. They know he has tried to be an im- partial judge nd to see Mexico's viewpoint. The correspondence be- tween the two governments jin the last few days shows that both sides are trying to re an amicable ob- ective, and, while the barriers are difficult, they are not altogether in- surmountable. pyright. 1926.) e FEW WOMEN IN GERMANY HAVE DRIVING LICENSES Issued Only to Mechanics—Clubs Declare Law Is Unfair and Not Safety Factor.

February 27.—Although man_yearbook contains 668 different political titles recognized by the republic in place of the former designations bestowed by the Kaiser, no mention is made of the title “Presi- dent.” But President von Hindenburg does not feel slighted. He is in an un- listed class by himself. Officials and employes are divided into 13 groups based on position, salary and pension allowances. One of the ocdest titles is that of a ferry- hoat skipper, “Faehrschiffer,” in class 1. It s more than a mere designation. The prover way to address the skipper would be “Herr Faehrschiffer.” Chancellor Luther is the only person in group 15, the chancellor group, but no additional group has been created for the only other single possessor of w title, the president.

Pisces. ‘Tomorrow's planetary aspects are rather variable. In the early morn- ing they are favorable but in. the afternoon they become overcast and in the evening assume a decidedly adverse character. There will hardly be sufficient time during the favorable period to initiate anything of real value and the best course to pursue is simply to attend to those duties which are costomary, without seeking fresh fields. In the afternoon or evening there will be sensed a strong dis- position to quarrel and to fret, and very likely a keen feeling of dis- appointment with one's self will be exrerlenced. This can be counteracted only by the exercisc of deliberateness and the establishment of poise. Resist all impulses to say or do things on the spur of the moment. Children born tomorrow will, accord - ing to the signs, suffer, from many ailments during infancy, but give regular nutrition and plenty of fresh air, they promise to outlive their weaknesses and later on assume that condition of normalcy for which they were intended. In disposition and temperament these children will prove to be rather unruly and not at all amenable to persuasive of affectionate control. This, however willbeonly a transitory condition and as they ap- proach their teens, always provided the environment is satisfactory, they will become sturdy and worthy examples of boyhood and girlhood. They will not be very ambitious or painstaking, but they will be contemplative and sympathetic, with kipdly nature and generous impulses. 1f tomorrow is vour birthday you are more frugal than generous, and although it is always a good thing to e economical and thrifty, this virtue can be carrled to excess. You are very meticulous and painstaking with regard to details and are somewhat critical of those whose action along these lines do not correspond with your own. You will, in all probability, not achieve any great measure of success from a material standpoint, and this is probably due to the fact that you spend too much time over little matters which are comparatively insignificant and overlook the big issues of life with their correspond- ing opportunities. In your home life you are familiarly called “fussy” and have a place for everything and want everything in its place. This is a virtue if your mate has a similar taste, but, ‘if not, your over- insistence in the line of carefulness will cause bickering and disquiet of spirit. ‘Well known persons born on that day are: Albert Brickmore, natura- list; Agustus Saint-Gauden: Richard H.
