present administration has been constantly
developing into the view that the geograph-
lcal position of the United States, it's in
vestments and the responsibility due to the
Monroe doctrine make it increasingly inn
possible for this government to stand by
passively and see the representatives Of
Central America torn by revolutionary up
risings. 1t is this general policy that is
now being exemplified in the vigorous action
which President Taft and his advisers have
taken in regard to the Mexican situation.
That President Diaz not only wants
American Intervention in Mexico but may
resort to trickery to get 1t, was the charge
made in the following statement issued
from revolutionary headquarters today:
I'VE believe despite the many official
statements to the contrary, that the Diaz
system would welcome Intervention But
they will have to resort to tTickery to get
it, They will have to make a deliberate at
tack on some American citizen in Mexico
1T is both possible and probable that
Diaz will see that this is done and that he
will then declare the attack to have been
made by revolutionists. We are on the
| lookout for any such tTickery and we will
see that il il is attempted it shall be ex-
posed to President Taft. The revolution
lists have too much at stake to ieopardize
their interests by doing anything to anger
the United States"
