CAN'T STOP FLIRTING.

LITTLE ROCK. Nov. 2. -- An
Arkansas school teacher is under
no obligations to prevent flirting
among his pupils and cannot be
disciplined by his school board
even if he encourages affairs OF
the heart among his youthful
charges.
This dictum, couched in digni-
fled legal language, was laid
down by tine Arkansas supreme
court today.
Robert Emile Roth, a Craw-
ford county teacher, had been
hired for year. He was dis
charged after three months be-
cause the board alleged he had
disregarded its orders to prevent
flirting among the pupils The
court held that this was not suf-
ficieut cause for his discharge and
that the teacher Is entitled to his
salary for the year.

Washington, July 17.-The United
States continued today to exert its
influence with General Carranza to
bring about an immediate cessation OF
hostilities and an agreement with the
Carbajal government for the peaceful
transfer of power at Mexico City TO
The constitutionalists.
John r. Silliman, personal repre-
sentative of President Wilson with
Carranza, received further instruc-
tions urging him to impress on the
constitutionalist chief the advisability
OF giving guarantees for the protec-
ton of the lives and property of those
who had supported the Huerta gov
ernment. Besides endeavoring to OBJ
tain a general amnesty, representa-
tons onsbehalf of the clergy in Mex
leo now in disfavor with the consti-
ttonalists have been made by Mr..
Silliman. Jose Castellot, representa-
tive here of Francisco Carbajal.
Huerta's successor, was occupied dur
ing the forenoon sending dispatches
to Mr.. Carbajal detailing the results
of his conference with Secretary
Bryan and the South American media
tors. or "
h Commission to Effect Transfer
I Definite official adviees came
through Mr.. Castellot that the com
mission of three constitutionalists,
which started from Mexico City on
Wednesday to tqAlk with Carranza,
was authorized f6Anegotiateswith him
for the transfer Of the government at
Mexico City. 1t is probable that it
would be two or three days before the
commission, on account of the inter
rupted communication. will be able
to reach Carranza.
On the outcome of the conference
and the assurance grven by Carranza,
as to an amnesty and the adjustment
of claims will depend whether recog-
milton will be accorded Carranza by
the United States at once. or whether
such action viii be indefinitely de
Iayed.
Mr.. Castellot later received mes
sage from Provisional President Car
bajal declaring that he would make
no further appointments of members
OF the cabinet and that he had chosen
General VeIasco as secretary Of war
merely that the army should habe a
directing head.
although the United States cannot,
of course, recognize the Carbajal gov
ernment," said Mr.. Castellot. Il know
that Mr.. Carbajal is anxious to restore
good relations with the United States,
as well as to bring industrial peace
to Mexico. He has sent the commits
sion north to talk with Carranza di
rectly in order that no time may be
lost in arriving at settlement.
The three men he has chosen have
been conspicuous supporters Of Ma

jail and, of course, very intimate with
Mr.. Carranza, SO naturally / am very
hopeful that they will be able to ar
range for the peaceful transfer of the
government"
Mr. Castellot revealed that during
his stay in the United States in the
last three months he had been secret
ly endeavoring to arrange for the
transfer of the government at Mexico
City, but that the tenacity of Huerta
had twice disrupted his plans.
Looming up as an ultimate .compli-
cation in the situation is the propos-
ed reputation by Carranza of the
financial obligations incurred by the
Huerta regime Since that admins
tration was recognized as legal by the
powers of Europe, every effort will
be exerted by them to maintain the
validity of the claims of their sub
jects.
Carranza May Repudiate Huerta Debts
While Carranza has given notice of
his intention to repudiate such debt,
there is some confidence in diplo-
matte circles here that he will not
care to invite the disapproval of Eu-
rope at the very beginning of his ad-
ministration, and it is being suggested
that an international commission to
adjudicate such claims will be form
ed. The powers of Europe may with
hold recognition until they receive
definite assurances as to how such
claims are to be treated.
The Spanish government is already
active in seeking to have restored the
property of their subjects driven out
by the constitutionalists. The ambas-
sador had conference with Secretary
Bryan today Later Minister Moan of
Argentine also discussed Mexico with
Mr.. Bryan. m
Peace in Prospect
Administration officials saw peace
looming today on the horizon of Mex
ican politics. Francisco Carbajal's in
formal statement to the Washington
government that ne Intended to retire
in favor of Carranza, oonstitutionaIist
chief, and Carranzas announcement
that he was willing to negotiate with
the federals for peaceful transfer Of
power in Mexico City was regarded
as practical assurance that the era
of bloodshed was near an end.
Carbajal, Huerta's successor, seeks
a proclamation Of general amnesty for
forces which fought against the north
ern armies. The revolutionary iunta
in Washington doubted that Carranza
would grant this.
From his headquarters in Monterey.
Carranza announced his plan Of con
ducting negotiations for the establish
ment of the constitutionalist govern
ment in Mexico City without further
sacrifice of life. He declared. how
ever, that unconditional surrender
would be the only basis Of parley.

PRESIDENT TELLS CARRANzA HE
MUST give GUARANTEE FOR LIFE
And PROPERTY OF THE HUERT|STAS

Washington government that he in
tended to retire in Carranza's favor
was conveyed to Secretary Bryan
through Jose CastelIot, former mem
ben of the Mexican senate.
One of Carbajal's first acts was to
order the release of all political pris-
oners. The American governments
attitude toward recognition OF a new
administration in Mexico hinged upon
the possibility of an agreement be-
tween the federals and the constitu-
ticnalists. Should Carranza make a
convention with the commission sent
from Mexico City to Guadaljara, then
the terms of the Niagara protocol
would be consummated and recogni-
ton would be extended after claims
growing out Of the revolution had been
settled.
However, if the contending factions
failed to agree, and Carranza insisted
upon fighting his way into Mexico
City, the American government would
withhold recognition until fater cleo
tions had taken place. Details of the
much discussed "plan of Guadalupe" ="
the constitutionalists' platform, we're
made public here today. The plan
was drawn up in Coahuila state, in
March, 1918 by Carranza and the
group that opposed Huerta's accession
to power. It follows:
