BAN ON ARMS TO
MEXICO IS LIFTED

lions of war, though exactly how that
will be done has not yet been worked
out.
The Presidents decision has been
reached after many months of careful
study of the arms problem, and while
in the first instance the belief of the
administration was that the denial of
arms was a humane, the conviction
has grown upon the Washington gov
eminent that it's policy has operated
ineoually toward the warning factions.
Partially, instead of neutrality
was the result of the policy, in the
opinion of the President and members
of the cabinet, who finally determined
that the real neutral course would be
to put both factions on an even foot
ing.
The administration also believes
that to permit the situation to drift
along would be merely contributing
to an incessant struggle with addi-
tional bloodshed. 1t has been urged
by many administration supporters
that the removal of the embargo
would in reality shorten the contest
and bring it to a quick conclusion,
thus decreasing bloodshed.
Although General Villa and other
Constitutionalist chiefs have repeat
edlv declared that they had captured
sufficient ammunition from the Fed
eral army and garrisons, and that
they felt well supplied, the Washing
| ton government, while realizing the
| important effect morally throughout
| Mexico that it's act will produce, is
| insistent that it's position as neutral
should be maintained.

SETH LOW AGAINST
CLAYTON MEASURE
Wants to Curb Power of Trade
Commission in Probe of
Corporations.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.--Seth Low,
former mayor of New York, and
president of the National Civic Fed
Grafton, before the House commerce
committee today presented tenta-
tive draft of a bill prepared by him
self, Professor ]. W. jerks and other
members of Civic Federation COM
mittee, for an interstate trade COM
mission.
Mr.. Low contended that the Clay
ton bill, pending, would empower a
commission with too drastic powers
of search of corporations. The fed
eration's bill would define just what
information gathered by the COM
mission should be made public.
Limited publicity was the keynote OF
his recommendations.
In cases of limited liability he be-
lieyed the public was entitled to know
the exact financial condition of the
corporation, but he did not believe
! in publishing broadcast confidential
information except In certain cases
He insisted that, with the approva
of the encouragement corporations
should have the right to require thu
commission to investigate them at {
time they selected.
Citing legalized trade agreement
abroad Mr.. Low said he believed tn
trade commission ultimately woul,
have Jurisdiction over the legalizinl
of trade agreements for conserving
coal, timber and other natural re
sources. Any attempt by Congress Il
define more clearly the prohibition
and restrictions of the Sherman Law
would serve only to open loopholes fo
future attacks upon It, in the opinio

Speaks Before Con- +.
temporary.

Frank Alvah Parsons, president or
the New York School of Fine and APP
piled Arts, spoke in Wallace Hall I'M
der the auspices of the Contemporary.
His subject was 1.-THE Aesthetic in
the Home" He urged that all club
women take up the subject of aes-
thetic beauty in the home.
Mr.. Parsons claimed that if the
women would study aesthetic art and
teach their children to appreciate real
art, within Ave years this country
would experience a renaissance"
Man Is merely the expression Of his
minud and conscience" said the
speaker, mo more and no less. What
the next generation will be depends
upon what this generation contributes
to It,"
In explaining this remark, the
speaker asserted that il the women of
the present time continue to have real
beauty clash with novel ideas. the art
and aesthetic beauty of fifty years
will be entirely different"
Art used to be picture or play"
continued the speaker, but people
have begun to realize that 1T Is
neither. in fact 1t Is not confined to
any one thing, but to everything, and
lust how much we get out of things
is according to. our degree of seeing
things.
"The aesthetic sense Is ability to
know beauty and the sense is just as
much a part of US as are our other
senses. No man is born without 1t.
Mr.. Parsons urged the women to
take this matter seriously and to no.
tice their homes and see If their aes-
thetic sense is pitched high or low.
He said. ''If 1t is low you will have
your rugs cross covered, your pic
lures bent out from the wall on
pointed wires, and your furniture
will be placed( as you think in cosy
positions. If on the other hand you
have a high sense of aesthetic beauty,
or wish to make yourself believe you
have, furniture in your home will
harmonic by being placed on
straight lines with the lines of the
room"
The speaker used pieces of colored
silk and samples of wallpaper in
showing that the most important fac
tors of art in the home are the dra-
peries, the wallpaper and the less
important things such as brfc-a-
brac and pictures.
He concluded his talk by saying:
1.-THE people of this country are de-
flcient in art. If they were not the
women of America would not wear
Paris gowns in preference to Ameri-
can ones. This is one instance where
1t proves that Americans have not
reached the proper stage of this aes-
thetic art"
Hhe said: 'If a child who has in
q plQaad n f1lQa o.
ant surroundings, by the time he has
reached the age of twenty-o one firm
ly believe that all the wrong win be
obliterafed'

South American Opportunity

Failure on the part of Americans
to grasp trade opportunities that
present themselves in South America
was pointed out to members of the
Traffic Club by Vincent Gonzales,
foreign trade and banking expert of

turers, New York. Praise was given
the English, German and French mer-
chants, who, the speaker said, prac-
tically control the whole of the South

CITIZENS BAND To
SPUR GRAND JURY
MiddIesex Aroused Over Failure
TO Indict on Young Girls
Charge.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Feb. 3.-Pub-
lie indignation over the failure or
the Middlesex county grand jury to
bring indictments in several recent
cases where there seemed evidence to
warrant that action has resulted in
secret meeting of prominent citizens
in the First Baptist Church here and
the selection OF a committee Of 100
to take charge of the situation.
Among the 100 are many of the best
known residents in the city, including
John A. Manley and Owen Swain, Of
the johnson & johnson Company.
New Brunswicks chief enterprise
outside of Rutgers College; Professor
Richard Morris, of Rutgers; William
R. Reed, president of the Board OF
Trade; w. H. T. Reeves, New York
banker. who lives here, and Henry
Kramer and Thomas Swenarton,
business men.
The plan is to hold mass meetings
and in other ways to arouse public
sentiment in hopes that this will be
brought to bear on the grand jury
and that it will be forced to bring
wanted indictmentsA
The meeting in the First Baptist
Church last night was secret, and
nothing was known of it until today.
The reason for the secrecy was that
those concerned wanted all their
plans formed before they told any
thing about them. Rev. ]. Morgan
Reed, Of the First Methodist Church,
presided. After several ministers of
the Inter-Church Federation had
spoken, the meeting was turned over
to the laymen, who proceeded to pick
a committee and talk of campaign.
The ministers will now confine their
efforts to bringing matters to the at
tention of Governor Fielder.
The principal reason for resentment
toward the present grand jury is its
failure to bring indictments against
three young men who were accused by
fourteen-yea Agnes Schollenberg
of mistreating her in several road
houses near the city and in hotels
here.
Prosecutor George S. Silzer worked
hard to get evidence against the trio,
but the jury didn't indict, though last
Wednesday indictments were brought
against four hotelkeepers and against
DIR. Patrick A. Shannon, one of New
Brunswick's prominent physicians, for
their illegal part in the Schollenberg
case
The young men accused by the girl
are Charles Jacquert, of South River,
a Rutgers graduate; George Allgair,
jr., and John Kiefer, of this city. All
are out on bail.
The present grand jury was ap
pointed by Albert Bolschweiler, of
Perth Amboy, who resigned the
shrievalty a month ago to become
United States marshall for this dis
trict. George S. Reynolds, of Perth
Amboy, is foreman of the jury.
