Participants in tynch- ings would be punixhed for murder by the Federal Government, under these terms of the bill. It would also penalize counties in which lynchings oceur by a rine of $10,000. The second plan is to greate a com- mission to study the subject of lynch ing and mob violence with a vitw to on Jations between whites and negroes. Senators Spencer of Missourt and McCormick of illinois have introduced measures on this subject, which are now being sonsidered by the Senate Judiciary Committee. —s— TULSA RIOTS DUE TO OIL LAND GREED, ASSERT REFUGEES Negro Who.

U. S. PROPERTY RIGHTS. Obregon Government Does Not Go Far Enough in That Line to Suit the U. S. By David Lawrence. Staff Correspondent of The Evening World. WASHINGTON, June 3 (Copyright, 1921).—.Mexico’s chances of recogni- tlon by the United States Govern- ment are not based upon adherence to any specific formula of words but upon written assurances that will cover the whole question of protec- tion for the lives and property of Americans, Whether there shall be a treaty or n protocol, as has been insisted in some quarters here, or whether the American Government shall accept simply an exchange of diplomatic notes as a basis for recognition, is something that is being worked out in conversations between the two Governments, and the interesting fact is that no hard and fast conditions have been despatohed. President Harding and Secretary Hughes want to do business with President Obregon and his Foreign Secretary, Alberto Pani, Both Mexican officials have shown an understanding of the situation in the United States and what public opinion north of the Rio Grande wants, Senor Pani, the Foreign Minister, wus a member of Carranza’s spectal commission which sought to adjust jations,with the United States, first |at New London and later at Atlantic City. Tt is known that the late Secre- tary Franklin K. Lane held Pani in high esteem and often said that If matters had been left to Pani's dis- cretion and if Carranza had not bean so indifferent to Pani's advice Mexi- can-American relations would long ago have been smoothed out, The Was! vernment is eager to get on a working basis with the Obregon Government, but is not inclined to allow its impatience to destroy its programme of what should be adopted by the Mexican authon- ties before recognition can be extend- ed. The Mexican theory seems to be that if law and order have been es- tablished and foreign Governments nk the Mexican Executive and Con- sess have been legally elected, that is sufficient basis for recognition. It is the intention of the Harding Administration to get indisputas's : of tie capacity of the Mexi- rnment to live up to inter- and the only way to get such evidence is to ask the Mexican Government itself to furnish it in bluck and white. Those assur- u.ces must, however, be all-compre- , Tho Mexican authorities have Indi- y cated ignore privately their willngness to that portion of the Mexican Constitution which would confiscate American properties, but that isn't nough for our Government, A prac- pregramme which will carry dence with the American Gov. t must worked out, aiill remains a way, however, around the difficulty, It is @ er of doubt whether Article 27 in the Mexican Constitution is itself valid with respect to American rights held prior to the adoption of the Con- |stitution, ‘The Supreme Court of Mexico hasn't don t point 1 It could happen that a Supreme |Court derision would clear up the whole matter and thus render inopera- ome clause, tive the troub among thousands who teft panic- stricken immediately afterward.

I never had a chance and I don’t give a damn!” And then the tears rolled down the face of Frank Harmon, undersized, a bit undershot, stocky, with a shock of tawny hair, arrested by the police for breaking eight safes in the build- ing at No, 849 Broadway early to-day. In the arrest and confession of this boy twenty-two years old, the police | have cleared up a sories of safe- breaking jobs, below Canal Street on the west side, that has puzzled them for months. There was a vicious side to the safe cracker. If he got no- thing he was likely to plug up the washstand or sink in the place and, turning on the water, leave. He became a pest because of the thorough manner in which he wreck- ed safes and merchants took to leav- ing them open with eigns attached: “Th is unlocked, please do not Sometimes he wrote a note and left it behind promising to cail again, In those notes he wrote although he always worked With all the world black about him “The first I remember was being in the protectory.

Anyway, I wasn't, ‘Seven months ago I heard fellows talk about breaking into safes, figured { could improve on the method and I did. All T carried were three tools, no brace and bit, and they all fit in my pocket. Wil say now, L worked hard opening safes and I never got a piece of money in an of them. Luck was against me. They were easy to open. They were like ing cheese, some of them. ‘In a little while I could batter the combination into the inside after punching around it and then do the rest of it. I never entered a place at night. After I had planted a place [ went around about 4 o'clock in the afternoon and hid somewhere on the top floor, ‘Then I worked down. By morning, as a rule, I was downstairs hiding. When things were open I sneaked out, as a rule. Of course sometimes things were different,” Harmon said in the months he had been breaking into sates he had used sever sets of tools. Sometimes he had found it convenient to leave them behind. He admitted turning on the water and said: “Yes I'd get sore after working all night and getting nothing and if I was going to get out I'd turn on the water. I was Just sore.” Harmon had been from the top; almost to the bottom of the building | at No. 349 this morning when Patrol- man John Quagliano of the Beach!

In the dark and alone in the} pantry he found Harmon. There was just light enough for the pair to see, | and Harmon seeing the policeman | had the drop on him surrendered At the Beach Street Station In- spector Coughlin took an interest in the boy. He was so different from anything the safe and loft squad had expected to capture when they did get their man, the inspector ques- tioned him for hours, Then he sent out and bought food for him. “I don't want to eat. J can't eat,” said the boy. “I’m too disgusted to eat,” The food was wrapped up for h’m) when he was sent to Police Heud-! quarters. There they had no record | of him.

Miss Martin testified that when they arrived at the Belmont home she and Mrs. Peabody had gone di- rectly to their room overlooking the drive and had seen and heard every. thing that took place below between Mr. Belmont and Peterson, She was positive that Peterson was not struck by Mr, Belmont, Peterson admitted on croas-examin- ation that there had been no discus- sion of the charge for the trip until the Belmont place was reached. There, he said, Mr. Belmont told him that he did not have $12 with him and one of the young women offered to make good the amount if neces- sary Mrs. Peabody was insistent, des- pite the opjections of Veterson’s at- torney, Charles P, McCarthy, upon answering a question as to her condi- tion at that Lime.

Alban Jones, Assistant Superintendent of the Union Castle Line at Biackwall, gained £70,000 or about $276,000, He was the lucky drawer in the famous Calcutta Sweepstakes on the Derby, which was won by Humorist.

He sold « few to officials of the Union Castle Line, who passed them around the office, and Jones, who had never made a bet in his life, took one, When interviewed Jones said he was golng to stick to “business as usual,” but he thought that he might plunge on a little two- seater car.
