"VUlitfSiSi "VSfi&SP HOME EDITION HUGHES URGES RESERVATIONS IN PEACE TREATY Declares League Is Needed, but Opposes Sacrificing Interests of United States; Frames Resolution For Senate 4Cashington. July 28. -? Charles Hughes, Republican candidate in the last Presidential election, has drawn up a resolution which he offers for adoption by the United States Sen- ate, consenting to inclusion of the League of Natiops Covenant in the Peace Treaty, but suggesting four reservations to prevent "sacrificing the essential interests of the United States." This became known to-day when correspondence between Mr. Hughes and Senator Frederick Hale, Re- publican, of Maine, dealing with ratification of the Treaty, was made public. While finding ambiguities in Arti- cles I and XV, dealing respectively with withdrawal from the League and questions of purely a domestic nature, Mr. Hughes takes chief ex- ception to Articles XXI and X, which concern the Monroe Doctrine and the liability of the United States to provide armed forces to protect other members ol' the League. The "descriptive phrase" employed in connection with the Monroe Doc- trine is said by Mr. Hughes to be "inaccurate," while Article X is branded by him as a "trouble breed- er," which if not eliminated, should be thoroughly interpreted. Any "reservations," Mr. Hughes added, should be incorporated in "the in- strument of ratification" to make it valid, but the fact that such reser- vation are made should not lead to the assumption that the Treaty would fail or the Peace Conference would have to resume operations. Sees Xced For 'League. Reservations Urged by Hughes SUMMARIZED, these are Mr. Hughes' four reservations to be made in including the League of Nations covenant in the Peace Treaty: First, that on giving notice of its intention to withdraw from the League, a power shall cease to be a member or subject to obligations of the covenant at the time specified in the notice, but that such withdrawal shall not release that power from debt or liability theretofore incurred. Second, that questions such as immigration or import duties, which are solely within domestic jurisdiction, shall not be submitt- ed for consideration or action by the League. Third, that the United States shall not relinquish its traditional attitude toward purely American questions, which shall not be sub- ject to jurisdiction of the Lea- gue, leaving this country free to oppose acquisition by any non- American country of territory in the Western Hemisphere. Fourth, that under Article X the United States shall assume no obligation to undertake any mili- tary expedition or employ its armed forces on land or sea un- less such action is authorized by Congress. FLASHY WOMEN ESCAPE POLICE DURING RAID Make Way Through Muddy Fields in Heavy Down- pour of Rain By Associated Press. Mhicoln, N. Y., July 28.?Nearly forty handsomely gowned women rushed panic-stricken from a resi- dence in Cedarhurst near here yes- terday following a raid on the house where gambling is said to have been in progress. Despite a heavy down- pour, the women succeeded in forc- ing their way past the guards and escaping over muddy fields. The raid was made by members of the State Constabulary and sev- eral special policemen, although it is said to have been inspired by the Nassau Association, composed of wealthy Nassau county residents who for some time have been arous- ed by numerous reports of society gambling in their midst. The raiders entered the house with drawn revolvers. It was the sight of these weapons that created panic among the women, according to members of the raiding party, and put vim in their flight through the soggy fields. Three men and a truckload of gambling paraphernalia were taken by tbe raiders, who said that some of the poker chips were marked ?s high as SI,OOO. The men refused to give their names, and were booked at police headquarters as "John Su- perintendent," "John Bookkeeper" and "John Doorkeeper." Mother Sentenced to Year in Jail For Shooting Her Son By Associated Press. Pittsfleld, Mass., July 28.?Mrs. Gladys C. Dunn, on trial in the Su- perior Court here for second de- gree murder for the shooting of her son, Joseph Allan Dunn, Jr., on Au- gust 11, 1918, pleaded guilty to manslaughter shortly after the opening of court this morning. Mi\>. Dunn withdrew her plea of not guilty to the indictment at the so- licitation of her husband, J. Allan Dunn, her attorneys and friends, who feared a jury verdict of "not guilty by reason of insanity," re- quiring her incarceration in a State hospital for the criminally insaim might prove fatal to her in a short time because of her nervous tem- perament. It is expected that the District Attorney recommended a slioit sentence to the Berkshire county jail. Mrs. Dunn was sentenced to one year in jail. Mrs. Dunn, who is the wife of J. t\,i a 1 P unn - of New York, an author, killed her son at their summer home in Lenox last August. The boy was - 1-2 years of age. The parents had quarreled, it ap- peared in evidence, and the wife in anger, said she would kill the child and herself. She rushed to her hoom obtained a revolver there, and ac- cording to her counsel in his opening address, held it to her head. When her husband called to her she turn- ed and discharged the revolver The child was killed. Mrs. Dunn said she intended to shoot herself. She i s 35 years of age and had been married twice previously. HUNGARIANS BEATEN BACK By Associated Press. Vienna, Sunday, July 27. The Hungarian Soviet troops have been thrown hack in disorder across the Theiss river by the Rumanians, at Szoluok and other points, according to reports received here to-day. The resolution suggested by Mr. Hughes is embodied in a letter re- plying to one from Senator Hale re- questing Mr. Hughes' opinion on the validity of reservations to the pro- posed covenant and also asking Mr. Hughes "what reservations in your judgment should be made to safe- guard the interests of our country." In his letter. Senator Hale asserts he "wants to see some plan devised whereby the United States may safely enter the League of Nations." In his reply, Mr. Hughes states, "there is a plain need for a League of Nations." He added that "there is also the immediate exigency to be considered" and that "it is manifest that every reasonable effort should be made to establish peace as pronvply and to bring about a con- dition in which Kurope can resume its normal industrial activity. "I sec no reason why these ob- jects cannot be attained without sacrificing the essential interests of the United States," Mr. Hughes con- tinues. "There is a middle ground between aloofness and injurious com- mitments." Just a Beginning While regretting that "suitable" steps have not been taken to formu- late international legal principles and settlement of disputes by im- partial tribunals, Mr. Hughes de- clares "there is merit enough in the proposed plan to make it desirable to secure it, if proper safeguards can be obtained." "He adds that "it is just as futile to exaggerate its value as it is to sec nothing but its defects." In his opinion the propos- ed covenant should be viewed "as a mere beginning," "but it is im- portant that a false start should not be made. The question as to the validity of reservations has two aspects, says Mr. Hughes: "First, with respect to action on our part which is essen- tial to making of reservations; and, second, as to the effect of reserva- tions upon other parties to the Treaty. "As to the first question, it is manifest that attempted reserva- tions will be ineffectual unless they qualify the act of ratification," said Mr. Hughes, adding that such reser- vations must constitute part of the instruments of ratification. Would Play Safe. If the proposed reservations are reasonable, responsibility for defeat [Continued on Page 13.] American Rancher Pays Ransom to Bandits For Return of His Son By Associated Press. Washington, July 28.?Acting upon the advice of the Mexican government, John West Thompson, an American ranchman living near Mexico City, has paid the 1,500 pesos ransom demanded by bandits for the release of his 14-year-old son, the State Department was ad- vised to-day. The Mexican authori- ties said they feared the bandits would murder the boy unless they received the money.

FAIR BATHERS TAKE TO THE STREETS WITH ENTHUSIASM Atlantic City Has Nothing on Harrisburg's River Front Park When It Conies to Fair Damsels in Attractive Costumes Some of Harrisburg's older and more sedate residents in Front street nearly lost an eye yesterday when they chanced to look out the win- dow and observed what appeared to be a very good imitation of Annette Kellerman sauntering slowly down the park. After a few minutes' stroll the Venus appeared to be rather bored with the intense observ. ation which she suffered, and wandered down the bank to the city front steps. There really is no mystery to this story at all; she was not a diver from a local theater, she was not a mermaid or anything like that in fact there was nothing "tishy" about her. Only a young woman suffering from the heat and desirous of a swim in the cooling waters of the Susquehanna. It is said now that since the ice is broken by the venturesome maiden Harrisburg will soon be treated to the sight of many bathers wander- ing about the immediate vicinity of the river. Atlantic City as a resort will have nothing on us.

Mc- Cullough, Arthur Davies was given a penitentiary sentence of not more than five years and not less than two years and six months, by Presi- dent Judge George Kunkel to-day. Assistant District Attorney Robert T. Fox produced in evidence Davies' former record showing that in three previous cases he was charged with burglary and had been sen- tenced. Davies was caught at Atlantic City, where he had taken the automobile and was using it. Albert, alias Mooney Campbell, charged with assault and battery by M. H. McFarland, was given a fine of SSO and one month in jail. Camp- bell had been in court on four other charges, first in juvenile court in 1911. Charged with breaking into the garage of J. W. M.

Oblige Dealers to Sell Food at 75 Per Cent. Below Market Price By .Associated Press.

FLETCHER WILL TAKE WARNING TO MEXICANS Failure to Protect Lives Will Leave Stern Alternative e For United States NEW POLICY BUDDING Program Is Mapped Out and Moving Along Well- Dcfined Lines Washington, July 28.?Ambassa- dor Fletcher, upon his return to Mexico, will bear an important com- munication to President Carranza. It is understood it will be of a nature so direct and to the point that the Mexican chief cannot fail to realize that his policy of evasion and equiv- ocation must terminate and propci protection given foreign citizens, as well as full amends for past out- rages. In event the Carranza government does not meet its international obli- gations it is expected the Mexican Executive will be given to under- stand clear./ the consequences and the duty entailed upon the United States under those circumstances. New Policy May Be Budding Demands from members of Con- gress that the United States with- draw its recognition of the Carranza government and go into Mexico to straighten out a tangled situation and to afford protection to the citi- zens and interests of foreign nations seem to he having little effect upon the White House in tne State De- partment, though the President's proclamation hanning shipments of arms into was indicative of E iwing belief that sooner or later intervention yvill be necessary and that the traffic in arms should -be stopped in the interest of those who must later cope with that crisis. Such action is more indirect than is asked by many who are now plac- ing their claims against Mexico be- fore Congress, but the President has mapped out his Mexican program and is moving along well-determined lines. Since his return from Paris he has conferred on several occa- sions with State Department offi- cials upon the subject and the Mex- ican situation was also thoroughly gone into at Versailles before U was agreed that Mexico should not he invited to join the League of Nations. Those close to, the administration do not anticipate any action in Mexico until the fate of the League of Nations is settled and the Peace Treaty with Germany ratified. If an international tribunal is created for the adjustment of disputes, and this is assured in some form, almost the first matter to he laid before it will be the Mexican question which is of vital importance not only to the United tSates, but to England, France and other Euro- pean countries whose cit'zens have invested vast capital in the Mexican Republic and who have been un- able to extend aid and defense be- cause of the European struggle. Startling Developments There were many startling devel- opments In the Mexican situation here. In the House an attack on the farranza government was made by Representative Hudspeth, of Texas, who advocated the adoption of the Emerson resolution authorizing the sending of American troops into Mexico to protect American lives and property until a responsible government could be established. His fiery utterances were cheered by members of both the Republican and Democratic sides. The State Department, on the other hand, tetalned a calm de- meanor and deprecated reports that there had been a change in policy by the executive branch of the gov- ernment toward Mexico. It did, however, make announcement that another kidnaping had been report- ed and that the Mexican authori- ties had ben asked to investigate. Ambassador Fletcher, who has been on special duty here at the State Department several months, made public communications he had sent to the Mexican Senate aud Lower House in reply to messages sent by members thanking him for the fair attitude he assumed when testifying before the rules commit- tee of the House a week ago. The Fletcher letter expressed the hope that conditions would prevail that would assure friendly relations between the United States and Mex- ico. He urged patriotic co-operation "toward securing more efficient ana adequate protection for the lives of Americans in Mexico." By some this was taken as in- dicating that the government wouid insist that better conditions must be brought about in Mexico if rela- tions were- to continue as at pres- ent and this government was to em- ploy no more vigorous measures to protect its citizens and their inter- ests in Mexico. Forestalled Grab Up Foodstuffs on Bridges Incidental to the passage of the forestalling ordnance by City Coun- cil to-morrow the Telegraph is ad- j vised that interested consumers may j see a fine demonstration of the evils , of forestalling at either of the i Susrjuehanna river bridges any mar- j ket morning. It is said that, scores of forestallers perch on the I bridges like human hawks and take j over all the produce of the farmers | entering from the fertile valleys, across the river. Then they flock i to the market places and boost the prices of the stuff which \hey haves purchased frcm the producers. It is' general'y understood that the fore- stallers in the city markets ure agi- tnted over the pro pect of a s'rict enforcement of the forestalling regu- r lations now under consideration by i the City Council.

Well, there Is no reason- why you should not ?and much long- er?physicians say. Sixty may be reached with the body and mind working perfect- ly. There is no need to be "old" at the age of threescore, say lo- cal physicians. "Get u wife," admonishes Dr. Raunick, who advises the young man "to marry, settle down and live content." Could Have Avoided Them by Sensible Living, Says the City Health Officer, Who Advises Moderation I How to be YOUNG at 60! Dr. J. M. J. Kaunick, city health officer, in a statement issued to- day lays down a number of rules showing how Harrisburg men and women may not only reach that age, but what is more important, have | sound, healthy bodies after three | score years of work and play. Many hundred Harrisburgers are seriously ill and thousands of others more or less frequently are ailing because of their neglecting to follow the simplest rules, the city health officer believes. llis Own Guardian This same view is held by virtu- ally every physician in the city, it was learned to-day. Much stress was laid upon the necessity of peri- odical examination. Such examin- ations it was said would show at the development stages the small list of disease which kill large numbers of men and women in the prime of life. "Every man is the guardian of his own health," said Dr. Raunick when asked to lay out a chart show- ing how to lead a healthy life. "Most of our troubles are due to our own negligence in properly caring for our bodies. Moderation in Diet "Be in the open air and sunshine as much as possible, and avoid over- heated and poorly ventilated places. "Take plenty of exercise and breathe regularly and deeply. "Live on a diet of meat (once daily) eggs, cereals, green vegetables, fruit and milk. Avoid cold drinks especially at meals; chew food slowly and thoroughly, and use the toothbrush regularly. "Take a daily bath and, if the heart can stand it. take a sweat bath once every week or two. "Secure a daily action of the bowels and take a purgative once a week if constipation exists. Wear Sensible Clothes "Wear porous clothing, loose col- lars, light shoes and hats and dress in keeping with the weather. "Retire early and rise early. Sleep in a dark, quiet room with open win- dows and sleep from 6 to 8 hours. "Rest for a whole day each week without even reading or writing. He Temperate "Avoid fatigue and excitement and don't worry about things that have happened or may happen. Never say unpleasant things and don't lis- ten too much. "Be temperate in all things, espe- cially in the use of alcohol, tobacco, coffee, tea and also the new drinks now being exploited. "Get married and have a happy home. "Consult your physician and have regular periodical examinations made by him to determine disease changes; take no medicine except by your physician's advice." U. S.

Purls, July 28.?Further instan- ces bave been reported of the pub- lic taking their own measures against ? profiteering by retailers. A grocer in the poor quarter of Montmartro seeing the rush of purchasers for chicken and rabbit at three francs 75 centimes a pound, marked up the price in front of customers to four francs. The crowd resented this action and sacked the shop, a few min- utes sufficing to clear out the grocer's stock of chickens, rabbits, melons and other eatables. The shutters of the shop were lowered with the aid of four policemen and the crowd was driven to the street.

When an at- tempt was made by whites to dis- arm Thomas a dozen negroes rushed to his assistance. The police quelled the disturb- ances and reported that nobody had been injured. The disturbance occurred on Wentworth avenue, between Thirly- tifth and Thirty-seventh streets, where many negro workmen reside. A riot call was sent to the Deeriug street police station, but when a wagonload of patrolmen arrived the fighting was over.

AH American Troops Out of France by Sept. 1; Disposing of Supplies By Associated Press. Paris, July 28.?A1l American troops except a few thousand who would remain on the Rhine, should be able to leave France by Sep- tember 1 if the tentative agreement for the sale of American Army sup- plies in France to the French gov- ernment is approved. The agreement between France and the United States for the suie of American Army supplies, it is said, will be put in writ.ng in throe or four days. It was said the French Chamber of Deputies would approve the proposed contract speedily and that the United Stales could turn over the supplies within two weeks from that date. The exact price to be paid by France will not be made known un- til the agreement is presented to the Chamber of Deputies. It is known, however, that the amount involved will exceed $360,000,000. The cost of the supplies to be sold was estimated at $1,500,000,. 000 several months ago, but since then many supplies covered by that estimate have been disposed of IJ some of the newly-formed govern- ments and the material remaining now is said to be valued at far less than $1,000,000,000. The largest items of material are locomotives, railways cars, automobiles and mo- tor trucks. The foodstuffs to be sold are valued at somewhat less than $300,000,000. if $ I LOANS GERMANS t 5 \u2666 | l 4 T e> 4 t 4 d* A f 4 t 4 $ * 4* % 4* 3l 4 % it 4 T | if i Si 4 i* * 4 4 I I 4 X 4 X 4 t ? 4 4 T 4 I I 4 1 4 4 V X ? 4 !

HUGHES URGESRESERVATIONS IN

PEACE TREATYDeclares League Is Needed, but Opposes

Sacrificing Interests of United States;Frames Resolution For Senate

4Cashington. July 28. -? CharlesHughes, Republican candidate in the

last Presidential election, has drawnup a resolution which he offers for

adoption by the United States Sen-

ate, consenting to inclusion of the

League of Natiops Covenant in the

Peace Treaty, but suggesting four

reservations to prevent "sacrificing

the essential interests of the United

States."This became known to-day when

correspondence between Mr. Hughes

and Senator Frederick Hale, Re-

publican, of Maine, dealing with

ratification of the Treaty, was made

public.

While finding ambiguities in Arti-cles I and XV, dealing respectivelywith withdrawal from the Leagueand questions of purely a domesticnature, Mr. Hughes takes chief ex-ception to Articles XXI and X,which concern the Monroe Doctrineand the liability of the United Statesto provide armed forces to protectother members ol' the League.

The "descriptive phrase" employed

in connection with the Monroe Doc-

trine is said by Mr. Hughes to be"inaccurate," while Article X is

branded by him as a "trouble breed-er," which if not eliminated, shouldbe thoroughly interpreted. Any"reservations," Mr. Hughes added,should be incorporated in "the in-strument of ratification" to make itvalid, but the fact that such reser-vation are made should not lead to

the assumption that the Treaty

would fail or the Peace Conferencewould have to resume operations.

Sees Xced For 'League.

ReservationsUrged by Hughes

SUMMARIZED, these are Mr.Hughes' four reservations tobe made in including the

League of Nations covenant inthe Peace Treaty:

Mhicoln, N. Y., July 28.?Nearlyforty handsomely gowned womenrushed panic-stricken from a resi-dence in Cedarhurst near here yes-terday following a raid on the house

where gambling is said to have beenin progress. Despite a heavy down-pour, the women succeeded in forc-ing their way past the guards andescaping over muddy fields.

The raid was made by membersof the State Constabulary and sev-eral special policemen, although itis said to have been inspired by theNassau Association, composed ofwealthy Nassau county residentswho for some time have been arous-ed by numerous reports of societygambling in their midst.

The raiders entered the house withdrawn revolvers. It was the sightof these weapons that created panicamong the women, according tomembers of the raiding party, andput vim in their flight through thesoggy fields.

Three men and a truckload ofgambling paraphernalia were takenby tbe raiders, who said that someof the poker chips were marked ?shigh as SI,OOO. The men refused togive their names, and were bookedat police headquarters as "John Su-perintendent," "John Bookkeeper"and "John Doorkeeper."

Mother Sentenced toYear in Jail For

Shooting Her SonBy Associated Press.

Pittsfleld, Mass., July 28.?Mrs.Gladys C. Dunn, on trial in the Su-perior Court here for second de-gree murder for the shooting of herson, Joseph Allan Dunn, Jr., on Au-gust 11, 1918, pleaded guilty tomanslaughter shortly after theopening of court this morning. Mi\>.Dunn withdrew her plea of notguilty to the indictment at the so-licitation of her husband, J. AllanDunn, her attorneys and friends,who feared a jury verdict of "notguilty by reason of insanity," re-quiring her incarceration in a Statehospital for the criminally insaimmight prove fatal to her in a shorttime because of her nervous tem-perament.

It is expected that the DistrictAttorney recommended a slioitsentence to the Berkshire countyjail. Mrs. Dunn was sentenced toone year in jail.

Mrs. Dunn, who is the wife of J.t\,ia 1 P unn - of New York, an author,killed her son at their summer homein Lenox last August. The boy was- 1-2 years of age.

HUNGARIANS BEATEN BACKBy Associated Press.Vienna, Sunday, July 27. TheHungarian Soviet troops have beenthrown hack in disorder across theTheiss river by the Rumanians, atSzoluok and other points, accordingto reports received here to-day.

The resolution suggested by Mr.Hughes is embodied in a letter re-plying to one from Senator Hale re-questing Mr. Hughes' opinion on thevalidity of reservations to the pro-posed covenant and also asking Mr.Hughes "what reservations in yourjudgment should be made to safe-guard the interests of our country."In his letter. Senator Hale assertshe "wants to see some plan devisedwhereby the United States maysafely enter the League of Nations."

In his reply, Mr. Hughes states,"there is a plain need for a Leagueof Nations." He added that "there is

also the immediate exigency to beconsidered" and that "it is manifestthat every reasonable effort shouldbe made to establish peace aspronvply and to bring about a con-dition in which Kurope can resumeits normal industrial activity.

"I sec no reason why these ob-

jects cannot be attained withoutsacrificing the essential interests ofthe United States," Mr. Hughes con-tinues. "There is a middle ground

between aloofness and injurious com-

mitments."Just a Beginning

While regretting that "suitable"steps have not been taken to formu-late international legal principlesand settlement of disputes by im-partial tribunals, Mr. Hughes de-clares "there is merit enough in theproposed plan to make it desirableto secure it, if proper safeguardscan be obtained." "He adds that "itis just as futile to exaggerate itsvalue as it is to sec nothing but its

defects." In his opinion the propos-ed covenant should be viewed "asa mere beginning," "but it is im-portant that a false start should notbe made.

The question as to the validity ofreservations has two aspects, saysMr. Hughes: "First, with respect toaction on our part which is essen-tial to making of reservations; and,second, as to the effect of reserva-tions upon other parties to theTreaty.

"As to the first question, it ismanifest that attempted reserva-tions will be ineffectual unless theyqualify the act of ratification," saidMr. Hughes, adding that such reser-vations must constitute part of theinstruments of ratification.

Would Play Safe.If the proposed reservations are

reasonable, responsibility for defeat

FAIR BATHERS TAKE TO THESTREETS WITH ENTHUSIASM

Atlantic City Has Nothing on Harrisburg's River Front ParkWhen It Conies to Fair Damsels in Attractive Costumes

Some of Harrisburg's older andmore sedate residents in Front streetnearly lost an eye yesterday whenthey chanced to look out the win-dow and observed what appeared tobe a very good imitation of AnnetteKellerman sauntering slowly downthe park. After a few minutes'stroll the Venus appeared to berather bored with the intense observ.ation which she suffered, andwandered down the bank to thecity front steps.

There really is no mystery to

this story at all; she was not a diverfrom a local theater, she was not amermaid or anything like that infact there was nothing "tishy" abouther. Only a young woman sufferingfrom the heat and desirous of aswim in the cooling waters of theSusquehanna.

It is said now that since the iceis broken by the venturesome maidenHarrisburg will soon be treated tothe sight of many bathers wander-ing about the immediate vicinity ofthe river. Atlantic City as a resortwill have nothing on us.

FLETCHER WILLTAKE WARNING

TO MEXICANSFailure to Protect Lives Will

Leave Stern Alternativee For United States

NEW POLICY BUDDING

Program Is Mapped Out andMoving Along Well-

Dcfined Lines

Washington, July 28.?Ambassa-dor Fletcher, upon his return toMexico, will bear an important com-munication to President Carranza. Itis understood it will be of a natureso direct and to the point that the

Mexican chief cannot fail to realizethat his policy of evasion and equiv-ocation must terminate and propci

protection given foreign citizens, as

well as full amends for past out-rages.

In event the Carranza governmentdoes not meet its international obli-

gations it is expected the Mexican

Executive will be given to under-stand clear./ the consequences andthe duty entailed upon the UnitedStates under those circumstances.

New Policy May Be BuddingDemands from members of Con-

gress that the United States with-draw its recognition of the Carranzagovernment and go into Mexico tostraighten out a tangled situationand to afford protection to the citi-zens and interests of foreign nationsseem to he having little effect uponthe White House in tne State De-partment, though the President'sproclamation hanning shipments ofarms into was indicative ofE iwing belief that sooner or laterintervention yvill be necessary andthat the traffic in arms should -bestopped in the interest of those whomust later cope with that crisis.

Such action is more indirect thanis asked by many who are now plac-ing their claims against Mexico be-fore Congress, but the President hasmapped out his Mexican programand is moving along well-determinedlines. Since his return from Parishe has conferred on several occa-sions with State Department offi-cials upon the subject and the Mex-ican situation was also thoroughlygone into at Versailles before Uwas agreed that Mexico should nothe invited to join the League ofNations.

Those close to, the administrationdo not anticipate any action inMexico until the fate of the Leagueof Nations is settled and the PeaceTreaty with Germany ratified. Ifan international tribunal is createdfor the adjustment of disputes, andthis is assured in some form, almostthe first matter to he laid beforeit will be the Mexican questionwhich is of vital importance notonly to the United tSates, but toEngland, France and other Euro-pean countries whose cit'zens haveinvested vast capital in the MexicanRepublic and who have been un-able to extend aid and defense be-cause of the European struggle.

Startling DevelopmentsThere were many startling devel-

opments In the Mexican situationhere.

In the House an attack on thefarranza government was made byRepresentative Hudspeth, of Texas,who advocated the adoption of theEmerson resolution authorizing thesending of American troops intoMexico to protect American livesand property until a responsiblegovernment could be established.His fiery utterances were cheeredby members of both the Republicanand Democratic sides.

The State Department, on theother hand, tetalned a calm de-meanor and deprecated reports thatthere had been a change in policyby the executive branch of the gov-ernment toward Mexico. It did,however, make announcement thatanother kidnaping had been report-ed and that the Mexican authori-ties had ben asked to investigate.

Ambassador Fletcher, who hasbeen on special duty here at theState Department several months,made public communications he hadsent to the Mexican Senate audLower House in reply to messagessent by members thanking him forthe fair attitude he assumed whentestifying before the rules commit-tee of the House a week ago.

The Fletcher letter expressed thehope that conditions would prevailthat would assure friendly relationsbetween the United States and Mex-ico. He urged patriotic co-operation

"toward securing more efficient anaadequate protection for the lives ofAmericans in Mexico."

By some this was taken as in-dicating that the government wouidinsist that better conditions mustbe brought about in Mexico if rela-tions were- to continue as at pres-ent and this government was to em-ploy no more vigorous measures toprotect its citizens and their inter-ests in Mexico.

because of their neglecting to followthe simplest rules, the city healthofficer believes.

llis Own GuardianThis same view is held by virtu-

ally every physician in the city, itwas learned to-day. Much stresswas laid upon the necessity of peri-

disease which kill large numbers ofmen and women in the prime oflife.

"Every man is the guardian ofhis own health," said Dr. Raunickwhen asked to lay out a chart show-ing how to lead a healthy life. "Mostof our troubles are due to our ownnegligence in properly caring for ourbodies.

as much as possible, and avoid over-heated and poorly ventilated places.

"Take plenty of exercise andbreathe regularly and deeply.

"Live on a diet of meat (oncedaily) eggs, cereals, green vegetables,fruit and milk. Avoid cold drinksespecially at meals; chew foodslowly and thoroughly, and use thetoothbrush regularly.

"Take a daily bath and, if theheart can stand it. take a sweatbath once every week or two.

"Secure a daily action of thebowels and take a purgative oncea week if constipation exists.

Wear Sensible Clothes"Wear porous clothing, loose col-

lars, light shoes and hats and dressin keeping with the weather.

"Retire early and rise early. Sleepin a dark, quiet room with open win-dows and sleep from 6 to 8 hours.

"Rest for a whole day each weekwithout even reading or writing.

He Temperate"Avoid fatigue and excitement and

don't worry about things that havehappened or may happen. Neversay unpleasant things and don't lis-ten too much.

"Be temperate in all things, espe-cially in the use of alcohol, tobacco,coffee, tea and also the new drinksnow being exploited.

"Get married and have a happyhome.

"Consult your physician and haveregular periodical examinationsmade by him to determine diseasechanges; take no medicine except byyour physician's advice."
