ton in Mexico, rather than interven-
ton, by the appointment; o. the Pan
American commission, urged upon
president Taft, by Senator CulIom,
of the foreign relations committee,
and Representative Flood of the for
eien affairs commission, by John Bar
rett, director Of the general Pan-Am-'
ercan union.
The commission, it is suggested,
should seek to bring about the read
justment Of Mexican affairs and be
composed Of statesmen from the Un's'
ed States, an eminent Latin-Ameriean
diplomat now in Washington, and an
influential Mexican.
Barrett suggested such men as VIII
liam Jennings Bryan, Senator cald-
ron, minister from Bolivia or Oepena,
minister from Uruguay and Sir de la
Para, sMexico's former ambassador to
the United States.
Barrett also suggest7 that the COM
mission investigate .the mexican sit
uatjon on the ground, and make rec
concentrations toiMexlco which would
readjust the situation in favor Of per.
manent peace and stability"
The plan should be submitted to
Mexico through Ambassador Wilson,
and Barrett expresses the opinion
that the government would find the
Latin.American governments in SYM
pathy with the plan.
Except to make inquiries OF some
coast cities with the view of learning
what transportation could be secured
from private ship owners in case u
becomes necessary to transport more
than the first brigade Of the regular
army to Mexican waters, the military
agency OF the government rested sat
isfed as being prepared already to
meet any emergency.
For the present efforts Of the admin.
istration are being concentrated upon
the protection Of foreign life and prop
erty at the Mexico capital without
forcibIe intervention, which the presi-
dent is determined to avoid until the
last extremity. Ten thousand dollars
has been sent Ambassador Wilson to
defray expenses of the Americans
wishirJ to leave the city. The com-.
mander's ships have been ordered to
be permitted to land troops in the port
to succor Americans in distress there.
but are not authorized to dispatch a
force into the interior without instrue-
ions.
