SECRETARY BRYAN ADVISED
TO LECTURE IN MEXICO

Secretary OF State Bryan is advised to
go into Mexico and deliver his Prince Of
Peace lecture. in a statement issued yes
terday by Senator Lawrence Y. Sher-
man OF Illinois. Senator Sherman says
that the United States is talking while
Mexico Is drifting to destruction carry
ing with it American lives and property.
The thousand American lives and O.O00.-
COO in American capital have been de-
stroyed, and yet the Wilson administra-
tion only counsels its citizens to make
fugitives of themselves, Mr.. Sherman
declares.
The Monroe doctrine, broodng over
Mexico, says Senator Sherman. is the
only influence which restrains foreign
powers from putting armies in the field
to bring about ultimate peace through
present warfare. Mexico has long been
governed by military force, says Mr..
Sherman, and 1t has been proven that
II is far from republic, except in name.

he contends.

is mounted on toothpiek-like stick
