New York, March IA. - Before
Senor de La Barra departed for
Washington today. he gave out here
the proofs Of an articles which will
appear tomorrow IN the Independent
on The situation in Mexico" urging
all his country men, regardless OF "all
divisions OF party, all differences be-
tween men, TO recall the sacred In
terests OF our country" and ito work
together Tor the progress of true
democracy and for the best i'm
provement OF the motherland."
The ambassador penned this appeal
only last night after his conference
with Senior Limantour, the Mexican
minister OF finance and he considered
II so important that at the very last
moment he had II crowded into the
locked forms Of the Independent
Mexican revolutIonlsts can be d.
vided into three groups, said Senior
de La Barra. Those who honestly
think themselves the apostles of de-
mocracy and progress; men who have
failed In life and aspire TO figure In
new regime, and the dross of So
oiety. who are ready to fight for any
cause by which they can profit and
make use Of their evil intentions"
or the first group Senior de La Barra
says;

Their duty should be that of the true

ed, thus contributing within the law
! and under its protection to the great
work Of national unity"
Senor de La Barra deplores the
harm which he says already has been
done, defines the revolution as guer-

tents in portion OF chihuahua,
which will be suppressed. and ex-
presses the belief that united peo-
pie will work anew in Mexco TO solve
It's problems.
He says in conclusion.
"A last word before closing--a
word of concord. hope and goodwill

streams of tendency were flowing 10
