HEATING TO ASK
MEXICAN PROBE
Consressman-E Elect to Demand
Investigation Into Ambassador
Wilson's Actions.

The calling of a congressional
investigation into an alleged Sc
cret alliance existing between
the Morgan -Guggenheim inter-
ests and the department Of state
which he declares has governed
the attitude of the United States
in its relation toward Mexico,
and a probing of Ambassador
Wilson'S recent relations with
the Diaz faction, will be made
the first official act of Congress
man-elect Edward Keating when
he takes off ce March a, accord
ing to q statement issued last
night, vigorously criticising the
government for its delay in or
dering Intervention.
''The murder of President Ma
dero and his vice president is an
international crime, {" declared
Congressman-elect Keating.
Zone of the first acts of Con-
gress should be the calling of a
congressional inquiry into the
apparent understanding that ex-
lists between the state depart
ment and the pirate land grab
bing Inorganic Guggenheim COM
bination.
Ambassador Wilson'S attitude
in this Mexican revolution has
been extremely suspicious. He
is altogether too friendly with
Diaz.
William Jennings Bryan will
be secretary of state after March
A, and when he assumes charge
this vicious alliance will be ter
minated. We can trust to his
honesty for that.
General Huerta and Diaz
should be hanged on a public
scaffold by the nations of the
world for their atrocious deed.
I have the greatest suspicion of
our ambassadors intimacy with
(, h brigands who were plotting
the destruction of their govern
ment.
Il would like to have it known
by the investigation who was re-
sponsible for our ambassadors
appointment to Mexico. l trust
the United States will refuse to
recognize the government set up
by murderers. I was saying the
other day thatif there was one
thing that would justify inter-
vention it would be the murder
of Madero. His assassination is
without explanation by his cap
tors" Rocky Mountain News.
