alton OF approximately $25, 5000. 900 for
the building of good roads were dis.
cussed at the meeting of the dele
gates to the United States good roads
convention in session here.
The question as to how much tha
government should be asked to give
probably seemed to be the only mat
ter upon which there will be debate.
as delegates were almost unanimous
In the opinion that the government
should aid states in road building
There are many ways in which to
go about this work of securing the
aid OF the government" said Senator
Bankhead of Alabama, discussing the
federal aid, but l believe the proper
way is by having friend of the as.

measure providing for the approprra.
tion. Then with the delegates and
members of the association thorough.

sisting until action is secured"
Senator Bankhead has drafted a bill
in Washington proposing federal aid
in road building, and he, of all the
delegates, Is perhaps the most influ.
ential in congress.
In connection with tAe lobby for the
federal aid it is planned to appoint a
special envoy from the association to
take up headquarters in Washington.
He will be there permanently and will
arrange matters for the various dele

Move Follows Titanic Disaster.
Declaring that the Titanic disaster
would not have occurred if the north
ern passage for transatlantic liners
had been properly patrolled, the
American delegates today presented
plea for an international ioe patrol.
They declared that had there been
sea patrol it certainly would have dis
covered the iceberg and notified the
Titanic by wireless of the exact posi-
tion of the berg.
The American delegation also has
a set of recommendations drawn up
by Secretary of Commerce Redfield's

ALL CABINET MEMBERS ARE
PRESENT EXCEPT ONE TO
HEAR MEXICAN TOPIC.
"HANDS OFF" POLICY HOLDS
Would Welcome Refusal by All
Foreign Nations to Loan
Money to Dictator.

Washington, Nov. 12.-The cabinet
met with all members present except
Secretary Wilson. The Mexican topic
was foremost. The raising of the en-
barge on arms which has been urged
on the president and the secretaries,
was discussed at length.
Indications were that the American
policy toward Mexico, which it was
hoped the nations of the world would
follow, still was "hands off.
The general Interpretation Of the
situation was that the United States,
by giving foreign powers detailed in
formation of its determination to re-
fuse to recognize the acts of the new
Mexican congress, had indicated de-
sire that the powers refrain from fi
nancial dealings with the Huerta gov

Hopes Aid Will Be Withheld.

So far as could be learned, there
has been no specific request for sup
port by the powers, but there has
been a plain intimation that the
Washington government believes the
collapse of the Huerta regime inevi-
table if foreign aid be withheld.
With the intention to regard as il
legal any loans or concessions the
new congress may undertake, there
has been distinct intimation that
policy of acquiescence by foreign gov
ernments would be gratifying to
Washington. Without financial aid,
and with its machinery OF govern
ment pronounced illegal, officials here
expect to see state of affairs That
may force Huerta to eliminate him

FIGHTS EFFECTS
. Of POISON WITH

Brooklyn Man Who Took BichIo-

He Will Not Die.

NEW YORK, Oct 23.-Can an in
domitable will overcome the effects
of deadly poison when every ounce
of the will power of the sufferer is
bent on getting we'll?
This is a feature in the case of
Isaac Levy, a wealthy Brooklyn
clothing manufacturer who swallowed
bicAloride of mercury by mistake,
which is challenging the interest of
physicians throughout the city.
Although Levy was told by doctors
that the tablets he took would cause
death and he was forced to make an
ante-mortem statement to the coro-
ner after drawing up his will, the
patient arose to-day saying he felt
fine.
II had a good nights rest; l feel
no pain nor WEAKNESS, and am sure
| will be back to my desk in a few
days. said Levy.
The case of B. Sanders Walker, the
Macon, Ca, banker, who died after q
period in which he felt no pain or
distress. was recalled to him, but Levy
replied:
MY own will power will conquer
the effects of the drug. / am concen-
trating with tremendous intentness

Colleagues on Interstate Com.
merce Commission Ask Wilson
to Rename Georgian.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-Judson
c. Clements, of Georgia, senior mem
Der of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, has been urged for reap
pointment by all of his colleagues on
the commission.
Chairman Clark called at the
White House Wednesday afternoon
and requested the President, on be-
half of the Commission, to rename
Mr.. Clements member.
The term of the Georgian expires
in December, and the name of for
mer Governor r. B. Glenn, of North
Carolina, has been presented by
friends to the President for Judge
Clements position. The North Caro-
Imam is very close to the White
House, and it is known that the
President would be glad to honor him
In some signal manner. 1t is thought,
however, that Judge Clements will
be reappointed.
The Georgia member was appointed
originally by President Cleveland in
1898, and has served continuously
ever since, having been chairman, in
rotation, part of the time. He is 81
years Of age, and before being named
to the Commission served as Con-
gresham for the Seventh District for
three terms.
The entire Georgia delegation in
Congress has urged Judge Clements
reappointment.
