SENATOR ASKS CHANGE IN
ATTITUDE TOWARD MEXICO
Attacks Policy of Permitting Ship
ments OF Arms to Huerta Faction
and Not to His Opponents.

Washington.-A change in the atti
tude OF the United States toward the
warning factions in Mexico was urged
IN the senate on Friday, with the re-
suit that the foreign relations com
mittee of. that body is to take up the
question Immediately.
Senator Fall of New Mexico at.
tackled the present policy and asked
Tor the repeal of the so-called "neu-
trality' resolution of the last con
gress. Under this authority, he said
arms were permitted to go across the
border to the Huerta faction, but
were prevented by the armed forces
OF the United States from going to
the factions opposed to Huerta.
Senator Fall praised the Wilson ad.
mlnlstration for refusing to recognize
what he termed the "assassins of the
president of Mexico" as the estab-
hshed government in the republic;
but he declared the practice of the
administration in allowing arms to 20
to one faction and not to the other
mad resulted in retailatory steps to-
ward American citizens that no ether
nation on earth would permit.
