Defense Scores in Hall Mills Murder Trial
Defense attorneys in the Hall Mills murder case argue their client’s innocence as the trial unfolds in Washington.

The State Department deems the Mexican laws potentially confiscatory, while Mexico asserts sovereignty and nonconfiscation within international norms. The issue could extend past January when new laws take effect, requiring U S property owners to register holdings for 50 year concessions. President Coolidge and Secretary Kellogg discuss the crisis and plan to warn Mexico in a Congress address set for December 7.
