The attitude of the department is understood to have 'ceen set forth several days ago to representatives uf some of the American oil companies, who commuiueaiec to the department a decision to confer directly with Mexican olficiaia with a view to reduction in the recently imposed petroleum export tax. Other American companies operating properties in Mexico have not adhereu to the decision to conduct direct negotiations, it was learned, suggesting that Such a matter be left to the state department.
