ances constitute the bulk of the property. These are worth about $500,000,000. Mining and smelting account for another $300,000,000; plantations and timber, $200,000,000; railway holdings, $160,000,000; manufacturing enterprises, $60,000,000; merchandise stores, $50,000,000; street railways, power companies, telephones and what not, $10,000,000 and "concealed” interests —partnerships in concerns which have Mexican or foreign names, etc —another $250,000,000. Standard Oil Dominant The “big five” American companies in the oil business are dominated by Standard Oil. This controls the “Continental,” also the Huateca company, formerly owned by E. L. Doheny, now on trial with former Secretary of the Interior Fall here charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States Government of oil lands. Another of the “big five” Is the Freeport-Mexican, controlled by Harry Sinclair, w r ho w T as likewise involved in the Government oil lands scandal. Mexican Gulf, owned by the Mellon family of Pittsburgh, and the Texas Company, Ltd., are the fourth and fifth. The Guggenheims, owning the American Smelting and Refining Company; the Phelps-Dodge Company of Arizona, controlling important copper mines; the American Metals Company, operating around Monterey and headed by John T. Morrow, partner of J. Pierpont Morgan, and the Greene Cananea Consolidated Copper Company, controlled by the “copper king," John D. Ryan, John D. Rockefeller Jr., are among the most important mining concessionaires. The Ryan-Rockefeller outfit owns the famous Aanaconda, of Butte, the greatest copper working in the world. Among the big American land holders in Mexico are Harry Chandler, publisher of the Los Angeles Times; William Randolph Hearst, of the Hearst newspapers; John Hays Hammond, internationally famous engineer of Washington; J. O. Jenkins, the United States consular agent, sensationally kidnaped by Mexican bandits a couple of years ago; George Carnahan, Charles Sabin, New York bankers, and others. McAdoo in Settlement William Gibbs McAdoo formerly owned a plantation wlthtn the 100 kilometer zone along the frontier, which the new Land laws now forbid to foreigners. This has been taken over by the government and adjustments made. Mexican officials say there are &.bout 50 cases in this category. They explain that foreign land holdings along frontiers and near the coasts are ruled out following European precedent to prevent foreign powers acquiring strategic positions which might be converted into bases for military purposes. They also cite the frequent scares in the United States incident to periodical reports that Japan, or Japanese subjects, had acquired such concessions. Other foreign hoidingswhich the United States, by reason of the Monroe doctrine, feels under obligation to protect—are large textile mills owned by the Flench and' Spanish; breweries by French and Mexicans, and oil, hydro-electric power, street railways and other interests belonging to the British. WOOLLEN TO ATTEND To Be At Meeting of Bankers’ VA’j* rational Foundation Trustees. Evans Woolen, president of the Fletcher Savings and Trust Company and chairman of the economic policy commission of the American Bankers' Association, will attend a meeting of the board of trustees of the bankers' educational foundation in New York City, Dec. 10. The foundation is designed to award scholarships to worthy men • and women throughout the country. It has a present fund of $500,000, although but a year old. LIKE BANANAS WASHINGTON—A craze for bananas is being developed in Germany, according to a report by Assistant Trade Commissioner Leo C. Morse, in Berlin. During the first six months of 1926, 31,117 tons of the fruit was imported, half again as much as was used during the same period last year.

MR. FIXIT Home for Stowing Cats Is Proposed,

. Let Mr. Fixit present your ease to city officials. He is The Times representative at the city hall. Write him at The Times. DEAR MR. FIXIT: Almost every night cars are i>arked on both sides of Prospect St., from Madison Ave. to East St., making it impossible for more than one line of traffic to move. Cars cannot pass in these two blocks. Can’t the police or city council permit parking on only one side of this narrow street? HOMER F! M'MAHON, 723 Woodlawn Ave. Under the new traffic ordinance, now under consideration, parking would be restricted to one side of streets thirty feet or less In width. DEAR MR. FIXIT: Will you please see if something cannot be done in regard to the high tension wires at Twenty-First St. and College Ave.? The covering of these wires is hi^ig-

JAMESON PARK KEEPER KEEPS PE-RU-NA IN HOME It Should Be In the Home of Every Toiler Because Sickness is the Greatest Enemy of the Laboring Man

It is the laboring man that comes in contact with the actual facts of life. It is the laboring man who faces the exigencies of climate an 1 brav.es the danger of changing seasons. The drought, the cold wave and the epidemic, all affect the la boring man more readily than any other class of people. Good health Is an absolute necessity wtlh these people. Invalidism Is not compatible with success. There is no one thing so disastrous to the laboring man as catarrh in some phase or form. Catarrh is the greatest enemy of the human family, and particularly that portion of the family who must earn their livelihood by honest toil. For this reason, Pe-ru-na cornea to the laboring man as a priceless remedy. It not only becomes the household remedy for that multitude of family ailments dependent upon t lie vagaries of the weather, but it becomes his own remedy whenever catarrh in any form begins to man! fest itself. Many a laboring man has been saved to his family by Peruna^

Good Reason to Be Grateful for Pe-Ru-Ka Mr. W. D. May, 2143 North Eosart Ave., known to thousands of Indianapolis folk as the keeper of Jameson Park, writes: "I began using Peruna about 30 years ago for Catarrh of the head and throat. F'ound it to be all it Is recommended for and more too. In the year 1913 I was suffering from a very severe attack of asthma, followed by influenza. I began taking Peruna immediately which drove out all the symptoms of the flu and greatly relieved me of my asthma. I also used it in the fall and spring. Find it to be the greatest preventative of colds and. fever and many other aliments that follow the change of seasons. Always I remain a true and faithful friend to Peruna and its founder.” Pe-Ru-Na Is Known As ,the World’s Greatest Tonic Everywhere in the United States tho people know without persuasion that there is no better remedy for

ing in strips and it Is most dangerous. CITIZEN. The city will order the utility to correct this condition. A home for homeless, starving cats is the proposal of a correspondent of Mr. Fixit today. DEAR MR. FIXIT: Couldn’t you persuade the city fathers to appropriate a sum to support a place where homeless, starving cats may be exterminated painlessly —a place similar to the dog pound. It seems the dogs get the best in everything and while I like them, I also like cats and it hurts me to see so many little kittens starving with no one doing a thing for them. M. D. Dr. Elizabeth Conger, city pound master, agrees with you, but has neither money nor personnel to care for cats at the municipal pound. Suggest you take it up with your councilman. NEXT SATURDAY TAG DAY Mayor Duvall today issued a proclamation designating next Saturday as Tag Day for the disabled American veterans, who are raising a fund for relief of stricken comrades of the World War.

restoring strength and promoting appetite than Peruna. It operates Immediately. Peruna strengthens the action of the heart, assists digestion and stimulates the excretory organs, ! thus ridding the system of the super fluous nutritive materials that ao cumulate. It is a most efficient specific for afflictions of the digestive organs, especially heartburn and kindred troubles of the stomach. It strengthens as it renovates, soothes while It stimulates, heals as It ex purgates. It reaches the source of the trouble by its action on the vasomotor system of nerves. Pe-Ru-Na Man At Goldsmith’s at Market and Delaware He can tell you more about Pe-ru-na that we can in this limited space. You can talk with him confidentially He will prove to you that 97 out of every 100 will benefit by taking Peruna. Your visit will be repaid as he Is handing out samples of NoAke tablets, the great remedy for pain, headaches, neuralgia, rheumatism, etc. Peruna is known to every druggist in Indianapolis. Insist on Peruna, and reject offers of other '’tonics.” —Advertisement.
