BATTLESHIP PLANS
STOLEN FROM OFFICE
Disclosure Seriously DiSturbS
the Navy Department,

Washington, May 14-Disclosures
that there have been repeated thefts
Of plans of United States battleships
from the navy department offices
caused a sensation in official circles.
The thefts have been going on since
the night Of March 4, when certain
plans Of the newest dreadnought,
Pennsylvania, were stolen from the
bureau of steam engineering. Since
that date similar plans of other ships
have been missed from the same
drafting rooms.
Agents of the department of justice
have been put on the case, but up to
date their Investigations have brought
no results. The fact of the thefts had
been kept a close secret by navy de-
partment officials in the hope that the
thief might be apprehended Though
it is the opinion at the navy depart.
ment that the plans were taken by
some one employed in the building,
suspicion has not yet rested on any
individual. The plans of the Pennsyl-
vania which were taken are described
as of little value in themselves. What
alarms Secretary Daniels and his as
sociates in the department is the fact
that apparently some one is able to
steal highly confidential papers from
the department and get away with
them undetected.

The one sure way for the people Of Ohio 70
insure themselves against another food dis
aster is to demand action On the part of the
states delegation in Congress.
This demand ought to be made now, and II
ought to be voiced in no uncertain terms. 1t
is not enough for town councils and civic or
ganizations to pass resolutions, nor will any
thing be accomplished by waiting for engineers
boards to make surveys and reports. Congress
will not act until action is demanded BY Ohio's
Senators and Congressman, and these men will
demand action with an i1sistence that will be
exactly in proportion to the insistence with
which the people of the state call upon them for
relief
Congress responds to nothing so quickly as
it does to public opinion, and right now II is the
plain duty Of every citizen Of the state to Let
the members of the Ohio delegation in. Con-

gEeos know that public opinion in this state
demands that the government widen and
deepen the rivers and build reservoirs.
This worl, must be DONE and it will be done
if cur state delegation gets busy"
You can do your part toward making them
"Cot buaJ" by addressing personal letter to
Tie representative in Congress from your dis
trict. a personal letter from you, written in
your own hand, will do more good than all the
fwhereases and refore-be-it-resolved" peti-
tions in the world. Every member of Congress
gets all the way from one to dozen sets of
resolutions in his mail every morning and
promptly consigns them to the waste basket.
Personal letters are imperative. Tell your
Congressman that you regard this question as
6 the utmost Importance, and that you expect
him to act at once.

exercise the authority conferred upon me by the law of March IA, 1912 to see to it that neither side to the struggle now going on Ill MeXlco receives any assistance from this side of the border. l sEall follow the best practice of nations in the matter of neutrality by forbiddilg the exportation of arms or amunltions or war of any kind from the United States to any part of the republic ot Mexico-a policy suggested by several interesting precedents and certainly dictated by many manifest considera- tions of practical expendi ieacy. We cannot in the circumstance be partl- sans of either party to the contest that now abstracts Mexico or constl- tute ourselves the virtual umpire be- tween them.
 Supported by Other Powers
 '1 am happy to say that several Of the great governments of the world
 have given this government their generous moral support in urging upon the provisional authorities at the City of Mexico the acceptance Of our proffered good offices in the
 spirit in which they were made. We have not acted in this matter under
 the ordinary principles of interna- | tional obligation All the world eX- poets us in such circumstances to act as Mexico's nearest friend and in- l innate adviser. This is our com- 1 mercial relation toward her. There | is nowhere any serious question thai
 we have the moral right in the case, or that we are acting in the interest of a fair settlement or of good gov ernmeat, nor for the promotion or some selfish interest of ou-' own.
 Utmost of Forpbcarance.
 If further motive were necessary than our own good will toward ! sister republic and our deep concern l to see peace and order prevail in Central America, this consent of man. kind to what we are attem otiag, this attitude of the great nations of the world toward what we may attempt ill dealing with this distressed peo-
 pie at our doors, should make us feel the more solemnly bound to go to the utmost length of patience and forbearance in this painful business.
 The steady pressure of moral force
 will. before many days, break the
 barriers of pride and prejudice down
 and we shall triumph as Mexico's friends sooner than we could triumph as her enemies-and how much more
 handsomely, with how much higher and finer satisfaction of conscience and of honor!"
