PENALIZING MOTHERHOOD

Sir: l heartily agree with your edi-
toral in this mornings Tribune under the
heading ''Penalizing Motherhood" espe-
cially that part which reads: THE sooner

Mexican Relations at a Crisis.

Vessels which drift strike snags; a mishap which
Is always awkward but not necessarily disastrous.
Nor are the perils of drifting less because at the
beginning the vessels prov was pointed in safe
direction In its adherence Of the murder Of Ma
dero and its unwingness instantly to condone that
crime in the de ture recognition Of its beneficiary
our government was unquestionaby right In its
subsequent course Of Micawberlsm, waiting for
something to turn up, 1t has involved itself in en-
barrassments which more resoute and decisive
course would have avoided.
That is not to say that General Huerta is justi-
fable in his arbitrary and dctatorial course. But
there is reason to suspect that he has derived
couragement In that course from the policy or lack
Of policy Of this country If instead Of whistling
for the winds Of Europe to blow to his relief the
President had taken firm initiative worthy Of
American diplomatic traditions, or had invited the
cooperation of some Of the great powers not of
Europe but of South America in friendly but firm
representations to Mexico, the present situation
would certainly be far less perplexing than 1t is
and more creditabe to this nation. The magnitude
Of his in relying for aid upon the very powers
whose aid and Intervention have for ninety
years been interdicing should be made apparent to
the President by the policy which the British rep
resentative in Mexico Is now pursuing
1t is. however, by no means too late to make a
safe and honorable emergence from the seeming
impasse into which affairs have drifted The very
violence Of General Huerta's speech suggests the
spirit in which that may be effected. He is re-
ported saying that if this country fails to recog
nlze the establishment of the Mexican government

crisis which might bring the government in Wash
ington face to face with foreign governments and
which might result In the setting aside of the Mon

The elevation Of Sir Rufus Isaacs to the Lord
Chief Justiceship of Great Britain recalls Incl
dent in the career OF Sir Rufus which occurred when
he was first returned to Parliament. At that time
there were ten members Of the lower house who
were OF the Jewish faith, and the new member-the
eleventh-was told, facetousy, that nasmuch as a
prayer quorum ten he would be superhuous.

a place where only man is necessary, &c that he
may be recognized as essential"
