Orders Zaragoza Not to
Accede to u. S. Request

Vera Cruz, April 13.-General Gus
tavo Mas, the Federal commander at
Vera Cruz, speaking today with refer
ence to the arrest of an American de-
tachment from the Dolphin at Tam
pico and the demand by the American
admiral for satisfaction for the insult
to the American flag, said that the
Mexican government had ordered Gen:
Morelos Zaragoza not to accede to Al
miral Mayo's demand-which was that
the American flag should be saluted
within "a hours-considering that such
a step would be highly derogatory to
national dignity. and was also uncall-
ed for, as absolutely no insult had been
offered to the American flag.
For the unfortunate mistake made in
arresting the Americans, Gen. Mas
added, Gen. Morelos Zaragoza had by
his. apology, made ample compensation.

COMMISSIONER E. 7.
CHAM B ERLAIN AND
PROF. S. s. HUEBNER
EXPRESS OPINIONS

Washington, April 1s~-The econom-
10 side Of the Panama canal tolls con-
troversy occupied the Senate inter-
oceanic canals committee today to the
v1kual exclusion Of the treaty obliga-
lions involved, and neither aspect was
in evidence elsewhere about Congress.
At the White House, however, Presi-
Gent Wilson re- affirmed his belief that
repeal of the exemption from tolls
granted to American coastwise ships
would not constitute an Interpretation
of the Hay Pauncefote treaty, but
merely would indicate the unwilling
ness of this country to bring up the
question OF discrimination.

OUTLINES COMMISSION PLAN.
GovernorEiect Carlson Suggests Way
to Handle All Labor Problems.

to Handle All Labor Problems.
Denver.-Governor-e Carlson le
fore the United States industrial coIn-
mission outlined the plan he has form
ulated for settlement of the present
strike situation and for the handling
of all other industrial problems II
Colorado.
His plan follows long study on the
subject and is intended to be the
strong feature of his term as the
states chief executive.
In brief it is a plan to concentrate
into one department all matters per
tanning to employers and employees
and work out a scheme for perfect
cooperation of the state government
and the people.
The basis OF the plan is the creation
Of a commission of three, appointed by
the governor. These men in turn Will
appoint deputies, skilled or efficient
in various lines, such as in the Labor
Department, now under the jurisdlC-
ton of the secretary OF state; oil in-
spectors, coal mine inspectors and
minor officers of similar character.
to are to be appointed by the governor
and are to be absolutely nonpartisan
so far as concerns employers and en-.
ployes and are to receive salaries, to
be fixed by the Legislature in the
measure creating the commission.
The scope of the commissioner
work is unlimited in the line Of then
duties The objects they are to attain
are: First, safety and sanitation for
employees, with the primary idea of the
prevention of accidents; second, work
mems compensation third, mediation
and settlement of industrial strikes
and, fourth, compulsory arbitration.
/ On the subject of safety and sanita-
tion Mr. Carlson plans that the com-
missioners, in addition to the statp-
tory provisions, should have the power
of fixing rules of reasonable safety and
sanitation; that first this subject
should be worked out by the advisory
| committee, who, when they reached :.
unanimous opinion on the rule or
rules, should report to the comnlIs-
sioners, who in turn should hold pub
lie hearings and if objections Were
made the defense should be by the an-
| visory board.
The general object OF this method is
| to identify business and labor forces
with government. In other words, that
this by virtue of its working makes ny
necessity mutual cooperation
through the agency OF government.
IF compulsory arbitration should be
necessitated the presentation Of toc
case plainly to the people adds then
support to any move that requires
| compulsory action
"All | ask" said Mr. Carlson, -
cooperation on the part Of all who are
interested in solving these question:.
| also wish for suggestions and sd
vice. 1t will be one of my chief aims
to carry through this plan. Many OF
the ideas have been tried out in Wig
consin where in the compensation for
workmen but two cases have been ap-
pealed. The commissions act would
always in matters of law be safe
guarded for the people by the right OF
| appeal to the higher courts"
