FAKE STORY
San Luis PotoSi Editor Gives
Readers What PurporS to
Be Declaration of War by|
President Wilson,

Mexico city. Dec. Gel Adelante
Of San Luis Potoei, which has been
noted as a journal Of strong anti
American sentiments, prints today
what purports TO be a declaration OF
war by President Wilson against Mex
leo. The fact that the sanction of the
American congress would be neces-
sary for such a declaration is omitted
by the newspaper
Instead Of being a rabid document
and likely to stir up anti-American
feeling, the declaration Of war is re-
markahle because it does not attribute
to President Wilson statements that
might be calculated TO increase the
antagcnism Of Mexicans towards
Americans. II consists Of ten articles
which give the reasons why war is
necessary, general instructions regard
ing a blockade and an outline OF the
proposed campaign. II specifically in
structs the American troops against
the useless shedding Of blood and or
ders them to protect non-combatants,
especially women and children.
The declaration states that inter-
vention is undertaken to bring peace
among bands (which are ferociously
contending without respecting those
principles of humanity which govern
modern warfare. and in order to de-
liver the presidency to him who shall
be legally elected by Mexlcans.
