President Wilson Evolving Policy o.
Friendly Non-Intervention in In

the southern republic. Developments
Saturday emphasized the trend OF af-
fairs toward an attitude Of friendly
non-interference.
1t became known Saturday that the
president, in conference with mem

committee, had discouraged the idea
Of making preparations for the volun-

Bryan's request for an appropriation
OF 100000 with which to transport
destitute Americans from Mexico in

official circles that the American
government would endeavor in any
crisis to remove Americans from the
troubled zones.
This, it is felt, would minimize
the chances for international diff
Guilty, as any destruction Of property
would be cared for through indemni-
fication and there is every indication,
incidentally, that the Wilson admins
tration will pursue vigorous policy
toward recovering damages to foreign
property in Mexico.

North Immediately after the meeting
of valley citizens is held at Grand
Forks on Feb. 10. Chairman E.. F..
Chandler OF the citizens committee,
has announced that the body would
meet on that date in Grand Forks
and a final canvass OF the situation
will be made to determine just what
commercial benefits will accrue from
the expenditure OF federal cash in the
manner proposed.
The committees statement will urge
the establishment Of the lock and dam
system and it will be contended that
navigation on the Red River will mean
a tremendous increase in business.
The most important feature that will
be urged is the possibility of a new
waterway to the markets of the world
by way of the Hudson river, Nelson
river and Hudson bay.

Action by Wyoming Effects
Change in Constitution.
CONGRESS MUST LEVY TAX
Legislation Likely to Be Passed at
Extra Session to Be Called by
President Elect Wilson.

Washington, Feb. An income
tax is now one OF the provisions of
the Constitution Of the United States.
Wyoming's ratification Of the in
come tax amendment-the sixteenth
change in the Constitution and the
first since the reconstruction-com-
pleted a list of thirty-six states
three-fourths of the Union-which
have approved the provision.
Congress now will enact a law to
levy the tax and it probably will be-
effective during the extraordi-
nary session to be called by Presi-
dent Elect Wilson in March. The tax
itself. its provisions and it's limita-
lions are all left to congress.
The new law probably would super
sede the corporation tax and provide
for a tax on all incomes above 5000,
although there has been some senti-
ment in favor of making the limit as
low as $4,000. Congressional leaders
who have been preparing for the final
ratification by the states estimate an
income tax would bring in about $780,
100000 a year to the government.
Now that the tax is provided by the
Constitution the proposed excise tax,
framed by Democratic leaders in 1912
to meet the supreme courts decision
which held a former income tax I'M
constitutional, will be dropped and
some of its provisions may be includ-
ed in the new law.
West Virginia ratified the amend
ment last week. One house in New
Jersey and one in New Mexico have
approved it. Wyoming's ratification
was wholly unexpected at this time.

REPUD|ATE
HOME RULE MEASURE
Defeat Irish Bill by Decisive
Vote Of 326 to SO.

London, Jan. 31.-After a four days
discussion the house of lords rejected
the home rule bill, 1926 to So. The
result was a foregone conclusion.
The speeches aroused little interest
because, as the Earl of Halsbury pa
thetically observed, the position of
the house vas now that of an ordi-
nary debating club-the peers could
express their views and reject the
bill, but they could not prevent it from
becoming law.
Nevertheless, the largest muster of
peers since the fateful evening they
passed the parliament bill assembled
in the house and bejewelled p~eeresses
thronged the side galleries.
Lord Lansdowne wound up the de-
bate for the opposition; Lord Morley
of Blackburn for the government.

SENATE ADOPTS
ONE Term PLAN
Limits President to Six Years
in White House.

Washington, Feb. IA constitu-
tional amendment which would re-
strict the president OF the United
States to a single term OF six years
and would bar Woodrow Wilson, Theo-
dore Roosevelt and William H. Taft
from seeking election was approved
by the senate by the narrow margin
of one vote.
After a %three-day fight, in which
~Progressives joined with many Re-
publicans in opposing the restricted
presidential term, the senate adopted
the original Works resolution by a
vote of AZ to %.
The resolution proposing the consti-
tutional amendment now goes to the
house. If ratified there by d two
thirds vote it will be submitted to the
legislatures Of the states and will be-
come effective when three-fourths OF
the forty-eight states OF the Union
have officially approved it.
An amendment by Senator Hitch
cock, which would have exempted past
presidents and made the new provi-
sion take effect March q, 1917, was
voted down AZ to 27, and an amend
ment by Senator Sutherland to ex-
empt the president in office when the
constitutional amendment may finally
be ratified was defeated 80 to 20.
