Infant Mortality CIassed
One of Greatest Problems
of the Present Generation

The feature of the reception was the
address delivered by DR.. L. Emmett
Holt of New York, president of the
American Association for Study and
Prevention of Infant Mortality. In his
address DR.. Holt declared that the
problem of infant mortality is one of
the greatest social and economic ques-
tions of the present day, and said that
no resource Of the state needs SO much
to be conserved as its children.
I'm all education and training" de-
clared DIR. Holt, physical considera
tions must come first, because, on the
physical, intellectual and moral strength
of the children of today the future of
the country depends. and unless the in
fants are saved there will be no chill
dren to educate or to train into useful
Dr. Holt outlined the attitude of So
ciety toward the child. discussing the
purely utilitarian attitude of the state
and the family in the matter He de-
clared that in the early stages OF or
EaniZed society feeble and deformed
babies were exposed to death without
in the effort 70 bring TO
maturity only those infants that by
reason of their perfect bodies might be
expected to develop into useful men
md women.

tionary viewpoint. of Mexicans avail
able for provisional president.
Those Under Consideration.
1t may be that DIR. Hale will suggest
the names of a number of Mexicans who
might measure up to fit the shoes of
President Huerta. Porfirio Diaz. deposed
president of Mexico, seems foremost In
the suggestion of names on this possible
list Miguel Covarrubias now in London.

There is a widespread belief that the
Wilson administration is moving to a
settlement of the Mexican situation on

government and the constitutionalist IN

Would Solve Problem.

With the suspension of hostilties by
the constitutionalist forces there would
be no International Mexican problem 1t
would have solved itself.
Even should bands of marauders. small
or large, keep the field and commit depre-
dations on private property, such ques-
tons would be essentially and exclusively
disturbances for national suppression ana
not the deep concern of other nations;
That Porfirio DiaZ resume the preSloen-
cy laid down as the result of the Madero
revolution and serve out his uneXpired
term, until 1916, meanwhile restoring
tranquility and preparing for conSttu-
tional election of president is sugges-
ton that has already been made by a
Mexican who has held high official posi-
ton and who is fully cognizant OF the
national and international complications
From the same source came the susges-
ton that Gen. CarranZa be made vice
president, to insure the cooperation OF
the constitutionalists.
Former President DiaZ is still ma
tiona1 hero. 1t is believed that his name
would be one to conjure with, alone suf-
ficient now to develop national enthu-
siasm and acceptance of his government
That he would be acceptable to foreign
nations, including the United States,
there seems no reason to question.
Cavarrubias Is Liberal.
Covarrubias was member of the
officitl family of President Madero,
and is supposed to have extreme liberal
leanings He would be acceptable to
the constitutionalists, there is reason to
believe, as provisional president. His re-
cent recall and his criticism of Eng
lands policy of recognizing and support
ing the Huerta government seem to in
dictate that he is not SO friendly to the
federal administration as to be accept
able as a d.sinterested and patriotic
provisional president.
Zamacona is recognized as one of the
most substantial men in Mexico. He is
not a politician. but a financier. He
came to Washington as ambassador
when Porfirio Diaz was president. dur
ing the Madero revolution retiring to
resume his post as financial agent OF
Mexico in London When Madero came
into the presidency Zamacona was
maintained in his post, despite fire.
quent requests to be allowed to re-
sign: President Madero subsequently
required of him most delicate task,
of reforming the mistakes made In
sending the wrong men into Europe on
financial missions.

| According to the advices to the do
partment, ''the military authorities are
exacting forced loans. and the Ameri-
cans and other foreigners are affected

| The usual representations have gone
to Mexico City and to tho American
consul at Acapulco In the interest of
Americans and other Foreigners. The
department is anxiously awaiting a
reply.
OTicers of tho Navy Department
have what they regard Us reliable In
formation that Huerta is getting arms
and ammunition from British sources.
| These officers say this Is not by rea-
Eon Of any favor shown to Huerta by
the British minister at Mexico re far
as they find. but that arms arc GER
tainly going to Huertn via Colom-
bia on tho west and through Hon
duras and Guatemala on the east. 1t
| is stated this matter has been referred
TO the state Department, as the Navy
Department Is without power to act.
| The attention of tho State Depart
ment, War Department and Navy De-
partment Is focused now on Mazat-
Ian and Ojinaga

trated at Mazatlan. and that the Jap
anese cruiser Idzuma and the British
cruiser Shearwater have turned up to-
gether at this port with the American

There Is to be az. important battle
which may take place at any moment
at Mazatlan. The official reports to the
\ nrt rno ont eh
/ Obregon Is in command of $500 Fed
| erals there, and while the War Depart
ment has no figures as to the rebel
army, It Is understood that General
| Carranza has concentrated tho whole
| force of the Northwest for the siege
and capture of Mazatlan.
| Japan has entered into the Mexican
affair now for the first time at this
port. Her cruiser Is there TO take care
| OF her own citizens, and the British
| cruiser Shearwater Is on hand to do
the sane for British subjects
! The war Department has no reports
| directly from Ojinasa, but 1t is believed
| here the rebels are sufficiently strong
I TO capture the town. The last instruc-
| tions Of the Secretary of War were
that II the rebels or regulars crossed
over into the United States they should
be disarmed and held indefinitely.
The War Department has no confirm
(, alton OF the press story that a party
Of Federals nifty miles west of Ojinaga,
crossed the river and were sent back
into Mexican territory. Officers point
out that this would have been contrary
to the expressed instructions OF the
