Congressman Murray
Will Ask Intervention
In Mexican Affairs

Intervention in Mexico within
thirty days, unless peace shall follow
warning from the United States,
Is demanded in a sensational resolu-
uon introduced in the House this after
. noon by Congressman William II. MUIR
. ray, an OkklahOma Democrat The pre-
an9lc Of the resolution is denunciatory
OF the Huerta regime. and President
Huerta is characterized as a "usurplng
marauder."
Mr.. Murray's resolution recites that
the late President Madero was mur-
dered, and was the victim of duplicity
and treachery: that Huerta has nulli-
fed the constitution of Mexico and
destroyed all lawful authority and
government.
The resolution declares that the
Government of the United States has
not recognized and cannot recognize
either as a republic or government
the assumed and arbitrary brute
force Of Huerta. or his occupancy of
the ancient capitol Of that republic;
regime founded on duplicity,
treachery and murder"
1t is also asserted in the preamble
of the Murray resolution that this
country Is bound to stand by the
principles enuECiated in the Monroe
doctrine: that the United States, un-
der that doctrine, cannot allow inter-
vention in Mexico by European
powers, and that this nation is duty
bound 10 protect the lives and prop
erty of it's citizens now in Mexico, as
we'll as the citizens of foreign cOun-
tries there Tesid ng.
The resolution continues:
That there exists neither law nor
government, neither the inalienable
rights Of gnan nor peace or order within
the boundaries formerly embracing and
known as the Republic Of Mexico-revo-
luton liberated that republic through
the guiding genius Of Francisco |. Ma
dSro. its last President and rightful
ruler. Through duplicity, treachery. and
murder. Huerta, the usurping marauder
now proclaiming himself the rightful
ruler Of Mexico, has nullifed its con-
stitution, destroying all lawful authority
and government and has committed
upon the person Of the President and
his family blackhanded murder
paralleled in all history only by the
cruelty of the dark ages, with all its
superstition and dastardly deeds of
rapine and murder-there remains

Senator Borah declared, that the gov

showing that even the courts there were

He ridiculed the idea the Monroe Doc

The situation in the Senate with re-

changed today. The meeting of the

cations continue to be that the treaty

10000 Americans In Danger.
The Murray resolution says there are
now 1000 Americans m Mexico, and
that some of them have been subjected
to Imprisonment and murder: ard that
sacred family rights nave been violated
by rowing military bInls.
Mr.. Murray. who Is known as AL

Baltimore, refers to the Baltimore
platform declaration that the constitu-
tionaI rights Of Americans must be Lro-
tected at home and abroad He there
fore says that this Government recug-
nizes the fundamental principles in the
preamble of the resolution, end Will
welcome the esta adjustment Of such gov
ernment as will bring about these Crds.
In consequence, Congressman Murray
demands that the President OF the
United States be requested and author
ized to issue proclamation giving no.
tice, both TO the Huerta regime and to
all other military leaders and bands
and to all persons whomsoever that
the life, liberty, and property of Ameri-
can citizens and of every citizen of any
foreign nation sOjourning in Mexico
must be respected.
Again. that this nation insist upon the
punishment Of any leader or band who
shall disregard this warning: that this
Government will pursue offending per
sons TO the utter ends OF the earth to
affect his capture and punishment for
such offense," and that the resources of
Mexico shall compensate such Ameri-
can or other foreign citizens whose
rights have in any way been violated.
Would Enforce Peace.
In the event that this warning is not
needed and peace restored. Mr.. Murray
proposes that the United States, within
thirty days. shall intervene. establish
peace. order. and civil government, and
take possession of all public property
of the former republic of Mexico. and
hold the same until every item of eX-

CHANDLER, Ariz April 25.-The news received here today as contain ed in The Republican, that Dr. A. J. Chandler has retired from the ac- tive management of the Chandler Improvement Co.,, occasioned much surprise
 It was known for some time that a change was in consideration. In an interview with MT. Loftus, who is managing the affairs of the com pany under the direction of Dr. Chandler, he said:
 The fact that Messrs. O'Brien and Loftus are identified with the Chand- Ter project does not mean that the control of the company has passed out of the hands of Dr. Chandler. As matter of fact the control has recently passed into his hands, and the work we are doing in building up the project is entirely under his direction
