EXTRA POLICE ON DUTY
IN FRONT OF THEATRE

An additional detachment of police
was detailed to guard in front of
Proctor's theatre in Madison ave-
nue. last night because of activity
of union delegates. Word reached

were intimidating theatre-goers be-
cause the playhouse had been de-

used no arrests were made. The

TRY NEW TACT
WITH HUERTA
Lind viii Attempt TO GET
Two Factions to Agree on
Provisional President
THEN HAVE ELECTION
Special by United Press Wire.


Washington, Nov. 12:-Another
serious attempt to secure an agree
ment between the warning Mexican
factions is in progress. 1t was learn
ed today that John Lind is sounding
out Huerta lieutenants. He wants
them to name candidates from whom
provisional president can be elect
ed to succeed Huerta and who would
be acceptable to the Carranza fac
tions. If one can be agreed upon
negotiations for a truce and a con-
stitutional election will be initiated.
Only compromise can end the
fighting in Mexico. The moment this
government permits the constitution
alists to get arms on this side of the
border 1t must be war of extermi-
nation. 1t is known the Huerta ad-
ministration, when 1t learns the Will
son administration was seriously con-
sidering the permitting of the con-
stitutfonalists to get arms in this
country, demanded from Lind how
the United States could recognize
Carranza If he won and refuse to
recognize Huerta. Carranza would
go into power, the protest said, as
did Huerta by right of might. The
protest was used by Secretary Bryan
in impressing President Wilson with
the greatness Of the responsibility he
would have to assume if he armed
the insurgents.
Mexicans in this city insisted to-
day that the existing economic crisis
Is impressing both Huerta and Car
rama. Because Of this they were
hoping Huerta would see his way
clear to retire in favor of provi-
sional president who would have the
support of Carranza and thus end
the war.

Europe UphoIds United States.

Europe UphoIds United States.
Washington, Nov. 12.-While Premier
AsQuiths speech In London has given
encouragement to the administration
the Washington government is hopeful
Of further declaration from Great
Britain giving support to the details of
the United States policy In the Mexi-
can situation.
1t Is hoped also that other foreign
governments will declare themselves
officially In accord with the Wilson ad-
ministratiou.
The London Daily Telegraph gives
prominence to an article saying that
Premier Asquith's speech really out
lines the attitude of all the European
powers and that they are in accord
with this government.
In other words. the president and
his advisers are hopeful that Huerta
may be starved" financially into
yielding to the state departments de-
mands for his elimination.
Administration officials are confident
that If the powers will declare them
selves as publicly supporting the
stand Of the United States toward Hu-
erta it will be only question of
short time before he will be obliged
to step out
Some encouragement for this policy
Is fond In Premier Asquiths speech
in London. The belief Is that 1t will
go far toward disillusioning Huerta of
his confidence that the European pow
ers will stand by him.
Asquith's Speech Indefinite.
When analyzed. however. 1t is ac-
knowledged here that Asquith's speech
contains no definite pledges as regards
the details of Great Britain's policy
toward Mexico. There is no statement
that the British government will pub
licly fndorse the stand taken by the
United States In Insisting that Huerta
must go and in refusing to recognize
his acts or the acts of the congress
about to convene.
On the other hand. the Asquith
speech contains a distinct reminder
tat the British government will ex-
pect the United States to protect Brit
lsh life and property In Mexico or
Great Britain will be obliged to do so
herself.
AS matter of fact the Asquith
speech, as interpreted here, is signifi
cant merely as indicating the spirit of
the British foreign Office toward the
United States in the present situation.
and not as committing Great Britain
to any definite program. The premier
seemed purposely to avoid any such
While Premier Asquith denies that
Great Britain has done anything to
hamper the United States. the belief
still persists in official quarters here
that Huerta has been obtaining fnan-
L1al aid recently from british inter
asts which have large concessions In
Mexico.
The administration is waiting for
more definite expressions from the for
eign powers In regard to this govern
nent's policy toward Huerta. and II
hey are favorable the presidents

PRESIDENT ON
TRUST POLICY
Says Corporations Are Ready
to Do Business Under the
New Tariff Law.
LOOKS TO CURRENCY BILL
scial By United Press Wire.

Special By United Press Wire.
Washington, Nov. 12:-With a GER
tainty that currency legislation will
be before him for his signature soon
President Wilson today turned to the
trust policy. This will be the all.
overshadowing issue of the regular
session of congress. The President
will devote the major portion of his
annual message to this problem. He
has told score of congressional Wis
itors that the antitrust "bugaboo''
must be eliminated.
The big corporations of the coun-
try, he believes, are ready to &c
ahead and do business under the new
tariff bill, but they want and they
have, the President thinks, the right
to expect that they will have design
ed for them how they will operate
and how they are to be limited by
a series of new laws. The Wilson
trust policy comprises specific def
milton of just what constitutes the
trust, prohibiting merging of corpo-
rations which would give the new
concern a monopoly in its field; pro-
hibiting inter-locking directorates
and stock ownerships in rival con-
Germs by corporations regulating
stock issues so that water cannot be
injection into corporation stocks so
that new combinations can not be
mulcted by the promoters who un-
derwrite the issues; making guilt
personal so that directors of corpo-
rations and not corporation shall be
punishable for violation of the anti
trust laws and providing for prison
sentences and not money fines; pro-
hihiting discrimination in rates and
prices in order to crush out rival
corporation; prohibiting the issuan-
ce of fictitious stocks and prohibit
ing the buying by corporations Of
rival factories merely to close them
up to keep their products out of the
markets; possible exemption OF mu-
tual organization of farmer and
labor unions from the provision of
the law.
Senate conference" on Currency.
Special by United Press Wire.
Washington, Nov. 12.--The Senate
Democrats went into currency
conference" today, everybody pro-
testing that it was not caucus"
and that currency is not partisan
question. The administration DEM
ocrats were disposed to stand for the
general plan of the Glass bill with re-
ductions of the number of regional
reserve banks from IL to 8 and
changes to make stock ownership of
the reserve bank by the lender bank
and not through public subscription.
Despite bis declaration there that
there was to be no cracking of the
party whip" to force the immediate
currency action, PRESIDENT Wilson
made it emphatically clear that he
will not be satisfied unless results
are given. For hours before the
calling of the senate conference the
President was busily comforting with
leaders.

ARTICLE S.


IN Tie preceding articles indicate
that there are many lines along
which commercial organizations are
continually working. Some make
special o.. rts to secure various
kinds of conventions, and to this end
prepare the city by saving adequate
hotel facilities and places well adap-
teo for public gatherings; others
make industrial development and es-
tablish guarantee funds, and other
means Of proper financial aid to such
development.
Fairmont Chamber Of Commerce
has in mind, and has well under
way, plans for improving the hotel
facilities for the city, Proper com
mittees are also working on plan
for an auditorium to take care of
conventions, and the fund to be
known as an Industrial or Guaran>
tee Fund whereby aid can be given
to worthy industries, either those al.
