STATEMENT FROM PRESIDENT

Following is the Official statement is-
sued as representing the views of
President Wilson and the administra-
ton on Mexico:
In discussions in Official circles in
Washington of the present Mexican
situation the following points have
been very much dwelt upon:
III has been pointed out that. in
considering the present somewhat
delicate situation In Mexico. the un.
pleasant incident at Tampico must not
be thought OF alone. For some time

American citizens or the dignity Of
the government Of the United States
were involved and has apparently
made no attempt at either reparation
or the effective correction of the seri-
Gus derelictions Of its civil and mill
tary officers.
Orderly Placed In Jail.
Immediately after the incident at
Tampico an orderly from one OF the
ships of the United States ia the har-
Dor OF Vera Cruz, who had been sent
ashore to the post ONCE for the ships

who had the ofhcial mail bag on his
back, was arrested and put into Jail
