"ULTIMATUM" GIVEN TOMEX, GOVERNMENT BY MANY OIL MEN (By Associated Prss MEXICO CITY. June 24. Requests j for the cancellation of all petroleum , decrees promulgated by the late preal-j dent Carranza, and the right of unre-j Btricted exploration and exploitation of oil lands were presented this afternoon to Gen. Jacinto B. Trevino, secretary of luduatry, commerce and labor, by representatives of foreign petroleum Interests, says El Universal. It Is reported the requests were made In the form of an ultimatum, the oil men being quoted by El Universal as declaring they were without power to make any other proposition or accept any other solution. The point was raised that the Carranza decrees, which inspired the writing of article 27 of the Mexican constitution, nationalizing petroleum lands, were unconstitutional. General Trevino, according to the newspaper, declared he had no authority to discuss the constitutionality of the decree. He asserted that both legislative and judicial authorities had taken part in their issuance, the first having granted the president authority to make the decrees in question and the second having refused on numerous occasions to entertain appeals from the provisions of the presidential orders. General Trevino, in discussing the request relative to exploration and exploitations of oil territory is quoted i as asserting this was outside his pro-' vince, since permits for drilling were j required under the constitution and j not under the presidential decree. In j addition, he declared he could not cancel the decrees because the executive department cannot anticipate the decision of the supreme court in cases now pending before it involving the constitutionality of the decrees in question.

"If the excessive profits resulting from the coal monopoly were eliminated and the industry conducted with a wholesome regard for the public welfare," said Mr. Murray, " a liberal return could be made to capital honestly and prudently invested, the wages of the anthracite workers could be increased to American living standards and the price of coal to the consumer wage of six dollars a day for adult workers Increase of one dollar a day men who receive the minimum. to all Increases of 31 per cent on all con-: tract rates.
