grave danger today. Additional advices
received from confidential circles to-

that the Huerta government is assaii

murder to enforce their demands for
gold.
The entire country Is in a state OF

of discomfort with the presence of fos-

for adoption by the senate Of a reso-
lution which will for all time mark

leo, brought the situation In the
southern republic to the floor Of the
senate today. Senator Fall of New
Mexico precipitated the discussion
which hinged about the right Of the
United States as a nation to protect
It's citizens abroad Fall demanded
consideration OF his bill introduced
Saturday which recited as the senate
policy, the democratic national plat
form pledge rs follows:
THAT the constitutional rights Of
American citizens should protect them
on our borders and go with them
throughout the world and every Amer
lean citizen residing or having prop
erty in any foreign country is entitled
to and should be given the full pro
lection OF the American government
both for himself and for his property :
MY sole purpose In this resolu-
tion," asserted Fall, has been to
prevent war with Mexico. Our policy
thus far has failed to secure protec.
tiop for our citizens there. 1t will
continue To fail so long as we hesitate
to declare ourselves. It has in the
past taken great disaster like the
blowing up of the Maine to arouse
this republic. A strong stand taken
two years ago would have prevented
war in Mexico. The failure of our
national administration and so far
this administration, to protect Ameri-
cans against outlaws in arms along
borders has led to imprisonment, kill
ing and robbing OF more American
citizens in Mexico
