May Compel Decisive Action
DEPIoRE ARMED INTERVENTION
EaeIand's Attitude Toward CArran'
zA's Denial Of U. 8. Right
OF Protection in the
Balance

washington. March 3.--Presi-
dent Wilson revealed to those who
discussed Mexican affairs with him
that he fully realized the gravity OF
the situation resulting from the kill
ing of william 8. Benton, British
subject, the reported murder OF
Gustav Bauch and Clemente Yer
CARA, American citizens, and Gen.
eral Carranza's denial OF the right
of the United States to look after
the interests Of foreigners generally
in Mexico.
The president spoke deploringly
of armed Intervention. but at the
same time pointedly referred to the
aize and power OF country like the
United States as being sufficient
warrant for a calm and patient
course while compliance with the
American demands was being
sought.
Callers got the impression from
the president that he was deter
mined to try every peaceful means
at his disposal to solve the Mexican
problem but that he realized GER
tain eventualities might mean a
drastic course. He spoke with a
firmness that showed his determin-
alton not to be stampeded into the
action by radical speeches in con-
gress, but with a hint that when
the necessity arose, the American
government could be expected TO
move decisively and effectively.
Upon Great Britain's attitude to-
ward the Benton case depends large
ly the extent to which the United
States will become involved. Should
England show an inclination to let
the Benton case await final ad1udi-
cation at a time when a firm gov
eminent is established in Mexico
the United States will not feel call
ed upon to challenge General Car
ranza's specific refusal to suppl!
the Washington administration Will

WHEAT NOT INJuRED-coBJRN
Kansas Agricultural Secretary Not
Worried by Ice ON Fields

There is no cause for worrying
over the possible damage to the
wheat crop by the sheet Of ice that
covers the ground and the snow that
covers the ice, in the estimation OF
II. d. Coburn, secretary of the Kan
sas board Of agriculture.
Growers always are sensitive
about coating Of ice on their wheat
fields, and a sleet storm such as
hit parts of Kansas two or three
days ago always starts speculation
as to. the possible damage, and at o
time when there is not much to do
except swap guesses."' Mr.. Coburn
said. with the blanket Of snow
above the wheat and the moderat-
ing weather promising an early
thaw, do not see the slightest occa-
sion for worry about possible dam
age to any considerable extent. or
course, there may be, as always, ex-
ceptions to this. Five or six weeks
ago Uncle Sam said the winter wheat
conditions for all Kansas averaged
100, and until something definitely
biz curious occures / believe that q
good figure to stay with"
