Washington, April ga complete change in the
plan OF military campaign in Mexico may be necessi-
tated by the menacing attitude Of the constitutional
lists, and that subject is under discussion by the
joint board OF the army and navy and the secretaries
OF the two military departments. Predicated upon the
belief that the constitutionaists would observe at
tude OF strOt neutrality during the settlement Of the
issues between the United States government and
General Huerta, no arrangements have been made in
regard to the disposition of American forces the
northern border beyond those necessary to meet pos
sible small local disturbances.

MERELY COMMENT

Among the most important messes
of the day are the New Haven deal
and Chicago's own little South Side
shooting affair.
Men and women are still kissing
each other goodbye when they go in
bathing at Diversey Beach.
That bIoomin' plunge place is no
place like home.
Over the fence is out of place.
Have you noticed that the trains
on the Oak Park 81" are elevating
their tracks or are stopping at every
station?
Neither have we!
The whole shootin' match will
probably dribble along until a few
more pedestrians are MANNED or
killed.
Then we will read that the Oak
Park Elevated Company MUST ele-
vate orstop at each crossing.
How true is the saying, History
repeats itself" :. 49,. =.
Sundays attendance was a good
indication that Chicago sure does
make use of her parks.
Rumor has it that the majority of
the so-called Investigators and raid
ers who have recently infested the
South Side are familiar with condi-
tons there.
And somebody once said that ia
miliarity breeds contempt.
In this case, however, the large
question is, just where does the con-
tempt come in and woh is it for?
CALL STRIKE AT PLAZA
The entire crew of cooks, kitchen
girls and firemen of the Plaza Hotel
walked out on strike yesterday fol-
lowing the refusal of Philip Weber,
the proprietor, to give them a half
day rest once a week.
All the employees have been forced
to work the entire seven days and
only rebelled last week. They say they
work the longest hours for the small.

Merida, Yucatan, June 1.-Ever
since rumors, of the possible occu-
pancy of Mexico~by United States
troops, Indians of that war-plagued
land have been strangely agitated.
Is this advent CT the American to
be the fulfillment of their, ancient ira
dition that the deliverance of the OPP
pressed Mexican Indian shall come
with the arrival of the white man
from the North? ~,
That was the promise of Itzama,
their hero god, whose book of wis
dom is their decalogue, though hid
den away through centuries.
The modern, and perhaps debased
type of the tribes, have been listening
to strange, portentious tales by the
old Caciques (chiefs) and wrinkled
tribal grannies of late.
And they are deserving by the hun
dred from the various Mexican
armies. ..
The tradition of delivering of the
Maya Indians of Yucatan and their
related Mexican tribes runs thus:
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-06-01

INDIAN PKOPF1ECY!
Itzama, their hero god, came to
them from across the sea many
years ago. Previously the Indians.
had lived like wild beasts, hunting
and being hunted. Itzama gathered
them together, showing them how'to
build, so that they became a power
full and enlightened nation. Peace
prevailed.
But Itzama departed. He left with
the tribes elders his book of wisdom
to guide them. 1t dwelt emphaticaI-
ly on the steps that must be taken
to guard against the entry of white
men from across seas who would
come in boats with wings, bringing a
strange god. Processing him, they
would not have him in their hearts
That part of Itzama's prophecy has
already been fulfilled, as the Mayas
know only too well, being the sons
and daughters of fathers and moth
ers tortured and robbed and killed by
the Spanish buccaneers.
But there is part still to be full
filled, they say.
Itzama's book declared that their
true deliverer would be white man,
coming out of the North, powerful
but kind, who should strike off their
shackles and deliver them from their
terrors.
Doomed to die, they say they are,
and their days are numbered. But
in the arms of the white emancipation
from the North they will pass away
in peace, as his equals.
Always and ever the old Indians
are seeking the book of Hzana.
which, tradition has it, was hidden
away by the great Quanthemo,
brother of the Emperor Montezuma
before his torture by the Spanish to
prevent its falling into the hands of
Cortez.

the corporation were excessive. and
declared that on the other hand they
