President Huerta Refuses to Resign
Finances Are In Bad Shape.
Washington.-Official Washington
read with keen interest Monday the
declaration Of Aureliano Urrutia, the
Mexican minister Of the interior, that
Provisional President Huerta would
not resign and would brook no foreign
interference In his administration.
While no plan that the American
government has had under serious
consideration involves any direct In.
reference in Mexican affairs. the ad.
mitted attitude of the administration
here is one Of opposition to the recog'
milton Of the Huerta regime.
Without the recognition Of the Uni
ted States leading Mexicans hitherto
have claimed Mexico would not be
able to extricate itself from It's finan'
cial difficulties. On this account II
had been believed here that pressure
would be brought to bear to persuade
Huerta to resign.
The announcement that Huerta had
determined not to do SO has becloud
ed the situation somewhat and
spurred the constitutionalists to fur
Their activity to obtain the repeal o.
the embargo on arms.

Washington.-Keen interest has
been aroused here by . report. reach
ing the state department that Great
Britain Is contemplating establishing
q great naval base in the Bermuda
islands. 1t is stated authoritatively
that the British government has made
inquiry concerning the plans OF the
United States for the protection OF the
Panama canal routes and II has been
suggested that this indicates an inten-
ton to safeguard British shipping
through the isthmus, as ID done In the
Mediterranean.
Officials realize that the problem
raised Is q tremendous one, involving
as It may the life Of the Monroe doc
trine and marking perhaps q complete
revolution In foreign naval policy in
the western hemisphere. It IL expect
ed that II Great Britain changes her
naval policy In American-Atlantic va
ters other European nations probably
will follow suit. Officials likewise
realize that with the opening OF the
canal the United States must contend
with japan for the domination Of the
Pacific.

1t is quite usual in greeting body to enumerate

Courtesy to the individual somewhat embarrasses us

debauch manhood, prostitute womanhood, disgrace

those who place upon the taxpayer the heaviest bur

Your position in community is quite peculiar.

1t is said by some that you help town. Do you
make better fathers husbands sons, and raise the
standard of citizenship? Do you bring comfort and
happiness to mothers, wives and children? Do you
