policy, though no official would pre-
dict to-day when It would occur
That the President is giving serious
consideration to the question of arms
is apparent not alone from the trend
of his talk TO the Senate Foreign Rela
tons Committee. but from evidence
which daily has been coming to the
Washington government of the disad-
vantace to which denial of arms has
put the Corstitutionalists. The latter
have argued that whatever might be
tho sympathies Of the United States
toward the Mexican factions, they have
by forbidding expectation of arms into
Mexico, helped Hucrta.
Policy Not Neutral.
The chief argument placed before
President Wilson now is that the
Hucrta government has experienced
little difficulty in buying munitions OF
war in countries other than the United
States, while the Constitutionalistf
have been cut off from the only ex-
ternal source Of supply-the American
border-and that in this respect the
American policy Is one of partiality, in
stead of neutrality. The reason for
the Presidents refusal OF arms to both
factions. as stated In his address ia
Congress last August, was desire
not TO add to tho bloodshed.
Though there was no understanding
with foreign governments about expor-
tations OF arms, tho United States then
hoped that tho embargo on funds would
be extended to munitions of war. The
failure OF this to materialize, and the
persistent determination of the Con-
Stitutionaltsts to obtain arms by the
slow process OF overcoming Fedora!
garrisons has prolonged tho struggle
beyond the expectations OF tho Wash.
ington government.
The Wow among officials that to give
arms to both sides on an equality
would end tho revolution quickly In
favor OF the Constitutionalists, pro-
cceds from tho belief that the latter
have moro men available for service
and arc financially better able to OBJ
tain supplies than is tho Huerta re-
sime There is feeling among the

SETTLE ALL THINGS
BY ARBITRATION
Secretary Bryan and Danish
Minister Agree on Terms of
Peace Treaty.

Washington, January '2s.-Arbitra-
ton of all questions which may arise,
including those involving national
honor. is proposed In Il treaty, the
terms of which were agreed upon to-
day by Secretary Bryan and Constan-
tine Brun, the Danish minister.
1t is expected that the new treaty
Will be signed in tho near future, and
Mr.. Bryan Is optimistic over the re-
ception 1t will be given In the Senate
The convention. which Will be an am
plication of tho principle of Mr..
Bryans proposals, makes no reserva :
ton whatever in the subjects to be-
submitted TO arbitration. Its basis is
q convention between Denmark and
Italy, signed at Rome, December 10,
1905, which obligates the signatory
powers to submit to arbitration at
The Hague court "all disputes of
whatever nature that may arise be-
tween them, and could not have been
settled by diplomacy
1t is understood, however, that n
provision Of the Danish Italian treaty
eliminating the nationals OF either
country as arbitrators will not be a
feature Of the Danish-American con-
vention.
While the peace pacts already signed
by Secretary Bryan are with smaller
nations of the world, the Idea IS said
to have received favorable considera-
ton In some OF the most important
European chancellerics
There has been no announcement on
the subject. but It is understood that
favorable progress is being made to-
ward the conclusion OF powerful
convention with Great Britain. All the
nations to which the original com
munications of Mr. Bryan's plan was
sent. are receiving copies of the
treaties signed.

Men Under Strong Guard.

ca. January 28.-The most minute pro-
cautions were taken by the government
to keep secret the deportation OF ten
principal labor leaders, and n strict
press censorship was instituted. 1t
was only by accident that the action
OF the government became known. The
men were heard singing labor songs
aboard the train, and an investigation
disclosed that they were under strong
guard. The labor men themselves were
ignorant Of their destination and were
greatly surprised when thcy reached
Durham.
Tho government had chartered the
entire passenger accomm odation of the
steamer Umgeni. The vessel will take
months to reach London. When the
Umgeni crossed tho bar she anchored
In the roadstead. and the prisoners
were told that she would remain there
for an hour and half TO enable them
to write to their relatives and friends
ashore.

DECENT DRESS
FOR LETTERS
Paper by Louis V. Eytinge
: Read Before the Conven-
ton Of Advertising Clubs
of America at Toronto,
Canada

Among the papers read before the
convention of the Associated Adver-
Using clubs of America at the To-
ronto convention lately was the fol-
lowing by Louis Eytinge, who, it was
explained, could not be present in
person. Though seven years a life
prisoner, Eytinge has cut an impor-
tant figure in the advertising world
and is perhaps more frequently men
toned in technical publications than
any other man:
The tramp, rather than the temper
arlly out of work, aroused many cit
les last winter to the problem of
the unemployed. Actually more than
a million, products of our civilization
their very numbers and manifest
weaknesses awakened public con-
science to a danger menacing the So
cial structure. Yes-and it is about
time that business men We're aroused
10 the danger that threatens their
much modern method of merchandise
ing because of the ragged hordes of
letter hoboes that are beating their
way through the American mails
In the larger cities, these chronic
unemployed were offered work SHOW
cling snow and dirt, but in most
cases the human beings refused, or at
best worked but spasmodically They
had wishbones instead of backbones.
They lacked stamina and endurance.
Each squirt brought it's weakening re-
action that sent them lower and lower
70 J,.;f+
and prison-social outcasts thrown
from the channels of life into an
empty existence-human derelicts in
the path of progress. Inasmuch as I
have al times in the past associated
with these tramps, ! am we'll pre-
pared to believe those sociologists
who assert that they number more
than a million. If. then, one per cent
of our population can create such
social disturbance. why should not
advertising and business men become
alarmed when letter experts insist
that ninety per cent of the letters
that are sent out are not doing the
things for which they We're brought
into existence?
Many men bewail the passing of
the old handwritten letter, thinking
that the art of letter writing is lost.
They cry out that the typewriter and
duplicating machine have destroyed
the letter of courtesy, urbanity and
heartiness. Nonsense! Nothing of
the kind. They have elevated stan
dards and have given rise to a Ii
brary 1t is true that the speeding
up processes in business have cast
aside many of the non essentials COM
mon in long-ago letters-but-it is
also true that the very high grade
form letter, written with infinite care
and appealing art printed and pro-
cessed with regard to topographic
beauty, is the equal of anything we
had in unscientific olden times The
trouble is that in struggling after a
higher efficiency in machines and
methods we have not kept progress
in men and minds. at least so far as
we reflect these in our letter work.
In seeking after those things that
doomed large, We have lost sight of
the little things about us and have
allowed our letters to be handled by
incOmpetents orr to reflect our own
Indifference, and so-there has crept
into our letters a degeneracy like
