Machiu ory of the federal govern mint wu set in motion today to wri lulu Hit; facts regarding report that it fciiuit of two million acrcH of land on Mm dalena bay, Lower California, hatt been made to a Mexican-Japanc-Hf syndicate by the Mexican governim-nl. Simultaneously, Don Manuel C Tellez, the Mexican ambassador, de clared that any report that his gov ernment had made a land grant con cession to a Japanese syndicate was "perfectly absurd." He added that reports of similar grants in the past had been found upon investigation to be without foundation. Japanese embassy officials later said they had no information on the subject. The first move for an investiga tion was made in the senate, at re quest of Senator Johnson, republican, California. He asked for an early meeting of the foreign relations com mittee, and it was promised by chair man Borah, who later dispatched telegrams to several principals in California, in an effort to obtain leads on which the committee might work. The subject was discussed among department officials during the day, and Ambassador Sheffield, at Mexi co City, will probably be asked to make informal inquiries at the Mexi can foreign office. Announcement of a land grant was made at San Pedro to Robert Sangerez, a former officer in the gov ernor's office of Lower California. The announced purpose was the pro duction of rubber and vegetable dyes. Reverting to this announcement in the senate, Senator Johnson said it would be premature for him to com ment on the published account of the announcement, but he added that it came with all the verisimilitude of truth and dealt with such "a sufficiently grave and important situ ation that we ought to know exactly the facts" S.

A brand new "Shakespeare" play entitled "The Lost Son of London," produced for the first time in history at the little town cf Recklinghausen has won the praise of critics as one of the best Shakes pears plays in existence. The play first appeared in a Ger man edition of Shakespeare plays pub lished in 1936, but its genuineness was attacked by experts and it was eliminated. The play as it appeared then contained only a few scenes. It has now ben completed by Ernest Kamnizer and one of the best Shakes pearian scholars in the world. Whoever the author may be, the German critics say the drama breathes the spirit of Shakespeare and that its characters forcibly recall King Lear, Falstaff and Imogen. The plot deals with the dubious paths of a lost son who shrinks from nothing for the sake of money, but he is saved later by the love of a pure girl. The father of the lost son helps in the salvation by entering the serv ice of his son, disguised as a sailor. STEEL EARNINGS LARGER New York, March 30.
