HAYDEN SAYS NO INTERVENTION
 IN MEXICO
Members of House He Says Are at Leisure While Senate is Spending It's Time Over the Currency
 Measure.

PHOENIX, Nov. 3.-The bill. throw ing the Colorado River Indian reser vatiOn open to public entry will be passed next winter.
 There is little chance of the Uni ted States intervening in Mexico.
 The new currency bill will be a great benefit to the country.
 The above are the. principal facts gleaned from an interview with Con- gressman Carl Hayden, who return ed from Washington this morning with Mrs. Hayden They will spend fair week, and probably the week following in Phoenix. For the pres ent they are at the Hotel Adams.
 At this time the senate is wrest- ling with the currency bill" Con gressman Hayden said. when it ference committee and eventually it will be voted on by the house once more. It will be some time before the representatives will have a chance to vote on the changes made by the senate, but must be back in Washington by December 1.
 Senator Mark Smith is undecided about coming for the fair but the chances are that he will not get away Had he any assurance that the senate would not vote on the currency bill before he could get back he would come. I called up his office just before | left Washington and he did not know what he would be able to do.
 '1n spite of everything we can do to hurry the bill throwing open the Colorado River Indian reservation, the matter is dragging. The bill has gone to the Indian bureau, which will make a report on it and let us I--. hot nj doing all we can to get the bureau to re- port favorably on the bill as it Stands. A. S. Prescott, of the Par kAr Board of Trade has been in Washington several weeks. He did much good, in spite of the fact that when he arrived the officials and clerks of the bureau were making up their annual estimates and he osnld hardly persuade any of them to give him a moments time.
 'T have every expectation that we will be able to get the reservation bill through next winter. There are about 100000 acres of farming land in the reservation and about 2O,OOO will be reserved for the Indians
 "Yes have read in the news papers that President Wilson has new plan for settling the trouble in Mexico, but I have no idea what 1t
  it till the result of the election IS known.
 Nowhere in the east is there any disposition to intervene in Mexico merely to protect the interests of Americans who have property there. It would take at least 100000 men to police Mexico, and it would cost $1, ,O0O, 900 a day to maintain such an army. We could better afford to pay cash to reimburse American invest ors and citizens for everything they own in Mexico.
 Another consideration is that in the last ten years the United States has built up a great trade with the Central and South American repub- lies. If we take Mexico those coun- tries will assume that that is merely the beginning of a march of con- quest that the United States has de- signs on the entire western hemis- phere.
 '"The chance of the United States intervening in Mexico is very re- mote. Still I do not think that Presl- dent Wilson will let any foreign country land an armed force in Mexico.
 'aThere is no reason for anyone to be alarmed about the new currency bill. It will be a great aid to the entire country, not a detriment.
