MARTIN WILL RETIRE.
ViRGINIAN, ONE or Old LINE
CONSERVATIVE DEMOCRATS
GIVES UP CHAIRMAN
SHIP.
John W. Kern of Indiana to- Take
Charge of Destinies of Democracy
I'm the Upper House During wilson
Administration.

Washington. Fep. S.-Withdrawal
today of Senator Martin of Virginia
from the race for the chairmanship
or the Democratic caucus carrying
with II the floor leadership, caused a
renewal of interest in the reorganiza-
tion of the senate after March 4,
when the Democrats come in control
OF that bo1y.
Early indication that Senator Mar
tins action would result in the Sc
lection OF Senator Kern without a
struggle, gave way late in the day to
evidences that the contest for con-
troll OF the senate organization is not
yet ended. The chief point of con-
tention remaining Is that involving
the seniority rule in filling committee
places and the demand Of the reor-
ganization forces that places on all the
committees be distributed without re-
gard to the service senator's have
had.
Senator Martins withdrawal was
interpreted by many OF the senate
leaders today to be an assurance that
the new senate will be organized in
harmony with the new administration.
Senator Kern, who was the Demo-
cratic vice presidential candidate four
years ago. is believed to be In accord
with Gov Wilson's views on most
public questions, while Senator Mar

nation forces as a conservative.
will not be a candidate for re-
election as chairman OF the Demo-
cratic caucus Of the senate" said
Senator Martin OF Virginia today. He
has held that position for the last two
years
Senator Martin declined to give any
reason for his announcement but IL
was understood TO be due TO the gem
eral favorable acceptance Of Mr..
Kern's candidacy. When Senator Mar
tins decision became known there
were many expressions of regret on
both sides of the chamber. He has
been very popular personally among
Republicans as we'll az Democrats.
His friends said he would be greatly
relieved by a shift OF the responsi-
bility attaching to party leadership.
The understanding now Is the pro-
gressives will control the organization
OF the senate under Democratic con-
troll but II is not believed that they
will disturb the old conservatives in
the chairmanships of committees.

Gwynedd valley, near Philadelphia,
the work has been established on a
practical and successful basis. The
buildings we're originally designed as
a home for convalescent children.
The main structure is equipped for
the reception of as many as Is boys
and girls, and in addition SO mothers
may be accommodated when the ar
rangements are completed. The build
ings and grounds, with furniture,
beds, bedding and crockery, were the
gift of a wealthy, well-meaning per-
son, to Mrs. Booth for her use as long
as she will make use of them in the
work she has in view.
Ten acres of ground surround the
buildings adjoining the home, and are
equipped with many swings and see
saws for the amusement and pastime
of the children and their mothers. The
smaller of the two buildings is set
apart for the use of the women. The
intention is to convert this smaller
building into a clubhouse for the
mothers, where they can gather in
the afternoon and sew and converse
and forget their troubles for the time
being at least. This plan for reliev-
ing the suffering and want of the in

mensely rich agricultural resources
were being scientifically developed.
But Mexico's peace and prosperity
had fundamental weaknesses. 1t was
dependent on the hand of monarch,
and it's funds for development had
come from other nations. The United
States had invested nearly 100000
600 in Mexico; England, 1920, 600, 900;
France, 143,000,000, and other foreign
countries $118,O0O,00O. Her own citi-
zens had invested only $S0O.000.0OO.
Furthermore, group of self-seekers
had gathered about Porfirio Diaz, the
Iron Man, in his old age. They be-
longed to the "cientificos," and scien-
tifically they extracted their percent
ages from every project set on foot
The foreign capitalists, naturally, had
to transfer this burden of graft to the
returns they extracted from their
businesses In Mexico, and the money
finally came out of the pockets OF the
common people.
Then there was the land situation.
A few hundred proprietors owned
practically every acre of the country.

Diaz would run for president in the
coming elections, This was on Febru
airy IS.
Five days later came the disgraceful
episode in modern history-the muir
der of Francisco Madero With Sonora
Madero imploring in tears for his life
the kindly-disposed president and his
vice-president, Suarez, were shot
trying to escape" as they were being
transported across Mexico City in the
early morning from the palace to the
penitentiary. Huerta was accused oil
murder in many quarters. Several
months later, to anticipate bit, Dom
inquez, the lieutenant who had charge
of the squad which had killed Madero
and Suarez, was himself slain. Dead
men tell no tales"
More crude methods we're taken to
get rid of some Maderistas. The pres
ident's brother who had been minister
of finance was slain in cold blood In
his cell, his nose and ears we're cut
off. and his body was subjected to 9TH
er indignities.
This was what led President Will
son to say in his speech at Swath-
more, Pa, Government stained by
blood cannot endure"
The question of recognition of HUI
erta, now undoubtedly In control OF
the mos important port Of Mexico, as
the de facto ruler, came up. Presi-
dent Taft, who was about to end his
administration, naturally did not seek
to establish policy for Mr.. Wilson,
having no desire to embarrass him.
Just one week after his inauguration.
President Wilson issued statement
which made 1t clear the United States
would not recognize government by
assassination. On this he has stood
ever since.
Huerta had scarcely seated himself
on the throne than rebellion broke out
again. with Gen. Venustiano Carranza
who had been close friend of Ma
dero, In the lead. Carranza has made
great progress, and in fact now con-
trolls more Of Mexico than did Madero
when Porfirio Diaz abdlcated.
The situation since has been grow

now believe that intervention by the
United States is the only means of re-
storing rider in Mexico.
