Attention TO Several In Which
Sex Problems We're Discussed.

New York, July 31.-Through ap-
peals made to Postmaster General
Burleson by the National Christian
League for the Promotion of Purity
the United States government is urged
to establish a censorship over Maga-
Zines to prevent the too free dis.
cussion of sex problems. Specific
complaints are filed against the
Forum, the Saturday Evening Pos,
and other weekly magazines.
The Tiger, which appeared in
the Forum for May is sighted as the
most Objectionable style of fiction.
Miss Jean Steed, of the Purity lea
que, referred to the one act drama
which was written by Witter Bynner,
as garbage" within the covers of a
periodical whose style, reputation
and history have been such that few
parents would take the precaution OF
examining it before placing it in the
family library"

ROBBED OF MILLIONS

Washington, July 31.-In pub
lished statement tonight Senator Till
man urged congressional relief for
the Southern cotton planters who he
said would be robbed of hundred
million dollars or more because of the
inability of the Southern bankers tc
get money from the New York's 'pi-
rates"
He demanded that the House bank
ing and currency committee stop cts
squabbling" and allow permanent cur
rency legislation to be enacted and
said that some kind of measure
should be put through Congress to
afford temporary relief for the cotton
planters.
THE New Workers have our people
by the throat as they have had them
all these years since the war, and on
ly Congress can give relief" he said.
eff something is not done l can see
no way of saving the people of the
South from great loss unless the banks
take things into their own hands as
they did in 1907.
81, for one, am tired of seeing Oul
people held up and robbed by New
York pirates who appear willing to
scuttle the ship rather than lose theil
grip on the farmers of this country"

will tour the Northern states for six
months, took views in all sections Of
the city, taking in the new packing

the plants of the Arkansas Short

One important view that will be of
unusual interest will be that taken
from the top of the Citizens Bank
building.
he Graphic's invitation to the pub
lie to get in" the moving pictures
was generally accepted and especially
by the children. At the High School
in the morning there were many lit
tie folks, both girls and boys, ON
hand and they engaged in all kinds
| of antics while the film man turned
the crank. Many business men were
at the site of the new packing plant
when the camera was turned on 1t
and downtown in the afternoon the
streets were crowde where the movie
man appeared.
Many automobilists piloted their
cars in the range of the tense and
two little girls in a MIXTURE rig and
boy on a beautiful Shetland pony
made sure that pets as we'll as them
selves were taken Business men
kidded each other into having their
mugs struck" and no few of them
were seen sheepishly, but earnestly,
moving across streets and along side
walks to get into the real.
At Baughman's Ideal Dairy, where
the cows are MIXED by electricity,
the picture man worked overtime He
enjoyed the novelty and was wise
enough to know that such an exhibit
would make most interprising sec
ton of his two thousand foot film.
Many Pine Bluffians have never seen
modern electric milking machines IN
operation and when the pictures are
thrown on canvass at the Orpheo
Theatre in about two weeks there
will doubtless be rush to get good
seats. 1t will be most interesting for
local people to see themselves and
have others point them out as the
picture is rolled off.

picture was taken late yesterday

that they were not aware that movies

REPRESENTATIVES Of Powers Have Been

Fleets Are Ready.
ARE WE'LL INFORMED

Washington, July 31.-The United
states must move to end bloodshed
and destruction of foreign property in
Mexico within a few days or a con-
cert of European nations will land
armed forces and look after their own
interests.
Extreme reticence has been observed
at the White House on the nature of
the foreign pressure upon this govern
ment in relation to Mexico. All that
has heretofore been given out is that
representations of some kind were
made by France and that this was urg-
ent enough to cause the hasty sum-
moning of Ambassador Wilson and
Special Agent Del Vale to Washing
ton AS late as today reports from
the White House sought to minimize
the gravity of the Mexican situation.
The demand of France, acceding in
behalf Of the European powers, was in
the form of an ultimatum to the
United States. 1t fixed thirty day
limit in which this country must act
It was initiated not by the European
ministers at Mexico City, but at
Paris, where officials of group of
European powers met and agreed to
direct their representatives in Next
co to report fully to their home gov
eminent on every phase of the Next
can situation. These reports, made
demand on this government to restore
order.
With two of the thirty day limits al
ready expired, President Wilson is
working desperately through agents
of the government in Mexico and
abroad to bring the Mexican situation
to status that will satisfy the Euro
pean powers and avoid armed interven-
ton by either the United States or Eu-
rope He still hopes that events will
move so rapidly within the next ten
days that the dilemma that faces the
government will be avoided, but priv.
ate and official reports from Mexico
do not encourage this optimistic view
President Wilson is understood to be
counting on the abdication of Huerts
as his solution
The International News Service has
secured full information concerning
the concert of European powers and
the reason why France was selected
s to present the joint resolution to the
United States. Here are the facts:
Four French men of war are within
quick striking distance of Vera Cruz
Four German men of war are in thu
Carribeans. Several British cruisers
are in the British waters in the Yves
indies Two British cruisers ar
within two days run of the western
Mexican coast. They could land 70,

two weeks. The battleship fleet il

IectlVe BLOCKADE would be establishes.
Vera Cruz is the objective of the
army and navy as a preliminary to the
occupation of the City of Mexico 1t
is the point also at which foreign YES
sells would land forces in case of for
ambassadors of the European powers
was held in the foreign office in Paris
in the middle of May to discuss the
Mexican situation. The conferees had
before them reports from the repre-
sentatives liz Mexico Of their respec-
tive governments. 1t appears thai
the joint investments of Europe in
Mexico exceeded the total investments
of American money in Mexico.
Before making representation to
the United States it was decided to
send special representatives to Mexico
to ask the diplomatic representatives
for further information.
TIL European diplomatic representa-
tives in Mexico compared notes as
soon as they discovered that each had
received instructions to make spec
ial report. Several conferences were
held and information was exchanged
Ambassador wilson was not taken in
to their confidence.
Special agents of the European pow
ers visited the City Of Mexico and in
vestigated the physical and financial
status of the Huerta government
Then they went to Northern Mexico
and Investigated the scope Of the op-
erations directed by Governor Carran
"a in Coahuila, Nuevo Leon, Chihua'
hua and in Sonora.
The reports of the diplomatic rep
resentatives and the special agents
were made and three weeks ago the
ambassadors reconvened in Paris tt
consider these reports. 1t was foun(
that affairs in Mexico were in hope
less condition. The ambassadors
agreed that France should speak fol
the powers. France thereupon form
ally set forth the state of affairs il
Mexico as affecting European inter
ests. 1t asked the United States t.
take immediate steps to remedy thu
situation. 1t intimated that decisive
action within thirty days would b
highly gratifying. Then followed tn
rush orders to Ambassador Wilson ant
! Special Agent Del Vale to come tt
| Washington. The series of confer
ences here have left the presiden
still opposed to recognizing the Huer
ia government and to Intervention
and he, with Secretary Bryan, is nov
casting about for solution which will
avoid these two things. They mus
| find solution within a few days o
decide whether the United State
shall pacify Mexico or whether the,
shall acquesce in landing of arme
forces in Mexico by the European
| powers.
In the face of these declarations
is declared in official circles toda
that the administration policy is on
of strict adherence to the plan of con
ciliating the factions in Mexico, bring
4 ing them together, securing an arms
tice, holding elections and thus paci
| flying Mexico. 1t is asserted on tn
same authority that the plan of con

other is contemplated for the present
