Queens Vigorously Upholds
Wilson'S Mexican Policy

abrogated; and having thus vested
himself with the legislative and judi
cial power OF Mexico, he charged al
most the entire Mexican Congress with
sedition and treason"
Senator Owen dwelt at some lenght
on the election" held for President
of Mexico on the goth of October, 1913.
He said that while Huerta had an
nounced he would not be candidate,
he had enlarged the powers Of his
military state governors, to cover the
election machinery. Four days before
the election. the senator said, despite
formal assurances to the diplomats
/ in Mexico City that he was not can
didate, election posters were sent
broadcast urging the people to vote
for Huerta. Huerta sent instructions
to his governors, said the senator, to
return the votes favorable to him and
not to return more than a certein part
of the precincts, thus insuring void
election This program, he said, was
carried out in every detail, and the
Mexican Congress, discovering that
less than half the voting precincts had
sent in returns, declared the election
void and expressed desire that Huer-
to continue as Provisional President
until some future time which might
be fixed by Congress.
"Huerta," he said dramatically, "still
is dictator"
"Of the 2S election governors Of
Mexico at the time Huerta seized the
governing powers" the senator said
"only two at the end of the year re
manned at home attending their du
, ties. Ten of them had Joined the revo
luton, a number had fled the country
and one had been murdered by ma
jor general of Huerta, who tried thu
governor of Chihuahua on the rail
road track and backed yard engin'
over him to teach him better man
ners than to oppose Huerta. All va
cancies were filled by military COVER
nors appointed by Huerta.
"Huerta's federal officers of tn
army appear to have been instructe
to take no prisoners. Every capture
officer, high and low, was put befor
wall and shot, most of the commo
soldiers taken prisoner were shot Il
like fashion and few allowed to saw
their lives by joining the federal army
Every member of the cabinet name
for Huerta was removed. Some G
them fled the country, one of them wa
killed, but not one was left in tn
Cabinet"
During the fall of 1913 numerou
evidences appeared of Huerta tryin
to involve the United States in som
act of aggression or invasion. Hi
purpose in doing this was to stir tn
patriotism of the Mexican people
make them forget their crimes, and il
duce them to get behind him as a d.
fender of Mexico against an invadin
foe. Finally, April 9, he had the in
pudence to arrest sailors in our un
form under the shelter of our flag, a
Tampico, and march them in derisio
through the streets. He knew perfec
ly we'll that his private expression {
regret was no amends to the govern
ment of the United States for thi
international affront and indignity.
Huerta desired to provoke some az
ton that would unite behind him tn

AS a result the United States will
be forced to assume responsibility for
what the immediate future holds for
not alone the Mexicans themselves,
but for the hundreds of foreigners
marooned there.
