Owen Believes Huerta
Is Facing Overthrow

An uprising in Mexico City against
Huerta is predicted by Senator Rob-
ert L. Owen. chairman of the Bank
ing and Currency Committee. who
called at the White House today and
who is keeping in close touch with
the Mexican situation.
Senator Owen is preparing for a
speech in the Senate, in a short time,
in which he will take the broad
ground that deposing of Huerta alone
does not justify armed interference
by this country in the affairs of Mex
leo, nor does the flag incident nor
any other minor controversy.
"On the broad ground that 100000
people are deprived OF constitutions
al government. we are justified In
using force for the purpose OF re-
storing them their rights" said Sen
ator owen today "The mere elm
ination of Huerta will not suffice
The people Of Mexico are entitled tc
a constitutional government"
Approving a trial of the mediation
plan. Senator Owen has some hope
of its success.
"I believe there will be an uprising
against Huerta in his own capital
and that he will be driven out" he
said.

pursued with respect to the United

Is the possibility OF a grave clash

Should there be q breach between

IL Carranza accepts the counsel of the

Angeles, though a soldier. Is a man
Of peace. He wants order in Mexico.
He was loyal to Madero, and had Ma
dero taken his advice, he would be
alive today. In the outbreak of the
revolt in Mexico Cley that ended with
his arrest, Madero sent for Angeles.
and asked him what to do. Angeles
looked the ground over. and said:
GIVE me 1000 troops and three bat
teries. and I'll settle this thing and
take Chapultepec in sixty minutes
Madero thought it over. and said he
didn't want to offend Huerta or seem
not to trust him.
That spelled the doom of Madero.

Psychology, too, plays its part.
Mental influence probably is strong
est in its effects on batting. Last
season Walter johnson defied batters
of many teams for a long period
until he faced the Cleveland slug
gers. They hit him all over the lot.
Johnson said he was in as good
form in that game as in the preced-
ing ones.
"Johnson's statement probably was
true The answer was not in his
pitching but in the fact that the
Maps walked to the plate with a con-
fidence begot of a few early hits.
They believed they could hit him.
and they did. The name of a pitcher
often goes as far as his ability TO
qaell the opposing batsmen."
On this theory DR.. Macdonald eX-
plains many vagaries OF baseball
that help make the game interesting.
That is why, he asserts, weak
team with a winning streak is
harder to beat than a strong team
after a losing streak; why a fresh
pitcher often is harder to hit than
a veteran who is not sure of him
self; why n batter cannot hit a GER
tan pitcher but can knock out the
