mo WAR WITH MEXICO"
Issue Is Between United States and
Huerta, Says Wilson.

Washington, April 2l-To a big
gathering of Washington correspond
ents President Wilson said they
should not get the impression that
there is about to be war between the
United States and Mexico and assured
them it was only an issue between
this government and person calling
himself provisional president of Mex
leo.
He further said he had no en-
thusiasm for war but he had en-.
thusiasm for justice and for the dig
nifty of the United States.
For the first time the president dis
closed that he hopes also through the
drastic measures to be taken against
Huerta to accelerate the removal of
the dictator from power at Mexico
City. 1t was indicated by the presi-
dent that the United States will not
be satisfied now with merely the firing
of the salute at Tamp1co, but will in
sist upon a guarantee that there will
be no more acts of disrespect such
as the Tampico arrests.

adorable" said Mrs Richardson. They
know nothing whatever of the mechan-
ism of the little body, how it should
be fed, nor how it should be clothed.
'This is not only true of the mother
of the slums, but of that great army of
mothers that belong to the middle class.
who would give their very lives for
their babies when they realize they
are the victims of ignorance.
The great mistake of the baby saw
ing campaigns in the larger cities is
that they have been conducted for the
poor mother To interest the mother
in the all around development Oh the
child is one way to stem wastefuiness,
idleness and degeneracy."
Mrs. Richardson. who is chairman of
the hygiene committee of the National
Congress of Mothers, also said she did
not think it possible for public school
teachers to give instruction properly in
sex hygiene.
Plans We're outlined whereby it is
hoped to save at least 100000 babies
under the age of two years during the
coming year through the cooperation
of all the branches of the Congress of
Mothers. This will take the form of
better baby contests, under the aus
pices of the organization. and the dis
tribution Of pamphlets and bulletins.

HEAVY SHOWS TO
BRING Big CROPS
Soil In Fine Shape as Result
Of White Blankets.

Washington.-For number Of years
the country at large has not enjoyed
such general SHOWS as whitened the
countryside during February and
March of the present year. Also it
has been the occasional catastrophe
that one great heavy snow has fallen
late in the season to be followed by a
quick thaw and consequent floods.
Now the soil sharps. seeing that condi-
tons are more nearly ideal this sea
son than for a number of springs, are
encouraged to believe that 1914 is des-
tined to be 4 year of bumper crops.
DR.. j. \. Bonesteel of the bureau
of soils is quoted:
Since the snow blanket took its
time in departing we will have a bet
ter crop start this year than for sew
eral years. To date conditions could
be hardly more ideal. We had snow
after snow-not too heavy. but per
siStent enough to keep the ground Gov
cred well and the tender shoots of the
wheat in perfect condition.
This is particularly true of the east
ern states generally. but at the same
time conditions are far better in the
middle west than is the general aver
age.
''In the corn belt, where there was
a considerable depletion of the crop
through too persistent drought last
season, the snow will prove of meal
culabe benefit. The corn belt ought
to have a splendid start.
Where snow remained long time
and there has been extensive oppor-
tunity for it to seep down into the
earth, carrying its moisture from one
to two feet. the soil is prepared to de-
velop sturdy roots for the cereal crops.
The plants therefore stand better
chance against possible deficiencies in
the matter rainfall during the period
of their growth"

is BLOCKADE A WAR?
Students Of international Law Ponder
Over Wilson's Plan.

New York, April 21.-Can President
Wilson blockade the ports Of Mexico
without making war on that country
Does his declaration that under no
conceivable circumstances would he
fight the people OF Mexico" mean that
he intends to establish a so-callad
blockade?
Can there be a specific blockade if
the vessels Of third nation are sub
jected to interference and seizure?
How can the president hope to bring
General Huerta to terms if the YES
sells of third nations are not forced
to respect the blockade?
Students Of international law Ques-
toned the effectiveness as a retail
atory measure of any plan that did
not contemplate the seizure of MeXi-
can ports or the seizure of vessels that
attempt to enter or leave those ports
after a blockade has been established.
A condition of war is a condition of
fact and does not wait upon the
formal announcement of govern
