ASKS FRANCE TO
|. ACT AS MEDIATOR
huerta Seeks Assistance Of
European Republic.
NO DEFINITE REPLY GIVEN

American Officials See in Action %
France an inclination to Permit the
United States to Carry Out ito Pol.
icy UndisturEe ed.
"; ellington, Nov 6-The French
foreign Office was asked Informally by
the Mexican foreign Office if it was
disposed to mediate between the
United States and Mexico, dispatches
from Paris said.
The messages say the French gov.
eminent has taken the attitude that It
will do nothing until further advised
as to the policy of the United States
toward Mexico and then nothing
which might be unwelcome.
State department officials take the
position that the action of the French
foreign office in refrainings from indi-
eating whether it was disposed to
mediate between Mexico and the
United States is another evidence of
the intention of France to defer to
the policy of the United States in the
Mexican situation. Secretary Bryan
said of the Paris dispatch:
I'm the absence of official advices
from the French foreign office 1 am
unwilling to make any comment"
France Awaits American Policy.
France was among the first OF the
European governments to acede to
the request of the United States to de.
fer action in the Mexican situation
until the Washington government had
formulated and announced its policy.
Mr.. Bryan fatty refused to discuss
the Mexican situation in any of fts
phases. The secretary Of state was
asked particularly about one publish
ed report that General Huerta had
made a reply to a recent communica-
ton from the United States and he re.
fused to confirm or deny it. Fl
The French ambassador here, M.
Jusserand, has received no instruc-
tons from his government to take
any steps towards mediation between
the United States and Mexico, though
the embassay would be the natural
channel for such steps. -.-.z
If the French government were to
decide to use it's good Offices at this
stage the uusual procedure would be
for Ambassador Jusserand to sound
Secretary Bryan first to learn wheth.
er such overtures would be favorably
received.

IMMIGRATION EVILS.
For years the United States

For years the United states

1T stands to reason that this
conservation. Is; intended for our
children and not for the chill

bill, which has been framed after the
provisions of the Iowa road law so
far as using automobiles as a means

ried into effect under the constitution
al limitations of his state. Instead
of using a basis of horsepower as a
tax on such vehicles in lieu Of all
other taxes, it is proposed to fix an
annual license fee of IS on all automo-
biles owned in the state. which on the
number which are registered will
mean close to 500, 900 annually, and
if the purchase of autos in the state
continues for another year at the
same rate as for the past year., will
carry the fund to even a larger sum.

rest to be used as a general state n
AS a supplement to- this bill, Sena-

ating $500 annually by the state to
pay it's share of expenses Of road
construction along and across state
lands. AS state property cannot be
taxed for road or any other purposes.
when road construction is carried on
in v~icinities in which the state is a
land owner, the adjoining property
not only need peal it's own share of
the expense of such construction work,
but also the share which should apply
to the state in case such land were in
the hands of private owners. This
appropriation is intended in part at
least to remedy this condition. and al
low the state to pay its share of such
construction, or a part of it.
