THE MEXICAN SITUATION.

Herald readers have had our views
of the Wilson program in Old Mexico
and it may be interesting to read
what other papers have to say, very
few of them having any praise for the
president. The comments are well
worth persual as matter of infor-
nation.
Colorado Springs Gazette: But the
presidents foreign policy is differ
ent story. From the beginning, near
ly fourteen months ago, he seems to
have misunderstood the whole Mex
lean problem. And certainly he has
mismanaged it in way that would
discredit mere tyro in statecraft.
The overthrow of Madero occurred
soon after the new administration
came into power at Washington, and
President Wilson Immediately con-
ceived violent dislike for the Mexi-
can ruler.
It is the traditional policy of the
United States and other nations to
recognize as the head of any Latin
American government whoever hap
pens to be in power. The individual
who calls himself president may have
no moral right to the job, but so
long as he is at the head of the state
it is expedient, even necessary, to do
business with him-otherwise the
whsle conduct of international affairs
goes awry.
Considering the difficulties of his
position Huerta has shown himself to
be q man Of unusual ability, and in
finitely superior in morals to Villa,
whom Mr.. Wilson has said he would
recognize as president if he had n
chance. II Huerta had been recogniz-
ed in the beginning it is mere than
likely that he would have been able
to restore peace. But Mr.. Wilson
Withheld recognition for the curious
reason that Huerta had acquired his
power through force-which, by the
way. happens to be the way in which
George Washington and the men who
with him founded the American re-
public also acquired 1t.
Stubborn adherence to the policy of
"watchful waiting" thus inaugurated
has only made matters worse. 1t has
strengthened the hand of Villa, COM
pared to whom the ruler of Mexico,
Huerta is an angel of light. 1t has
exhausted the patience of European ma
tions. some Of which have financial
interests in Mexico almost as great
as ours, and which have the right to
demand from the United States the
protection which is promised but not
given by the Monroe doctrine. And
finally, it forced Huerta into a po-
sition where, in a last effort to unite
the country to his support, he delib-
erately insulted the American flag to
provoke intervention.
The effect Of Mr.. Wilson's policy
has been precisely the reverse of
what it was intended to be. With pro-
testing that he would not intervene
he has carried on continual moral
Intervention, which only served to
complicate affairs. 1t did not establish
= stable government. But it did
bring down on the United States the
sneering contempt of the Mexicans Of
both factions and the ridicule Of 9TH
Or nations. The "watchful waiting"
policy was doomed to failure from the
beginning, but apparently the presi-
dent was determined to persist in it
to the end Of his term. or until some
unforeseen event compelled = change.
Such IN event has occurred. But

Springfield Republican: In finding
himself war president, Woodrow
Wilson must feel the inexorable grip
of whirling circumstances, yet he him
self must bear the responsibility for
the war, which has apparently be-
gun. For this is war. The Ameri-
can flag has been fired upon and
the blood of bluejackets has been shed
in the capture of the Mexican GUS
toms house at Vera Cruz. The swift
ness with which the bloody climax
has come startles the country, and 1t
may easily be that no clear under
standing of the issue exists among the
mass of the people.
The debate in congress upon the
resolution "justifying" the use Of war
powers by the president suddenly be-
comes academic in the face Of the
news from Vera Cruz. The war power
has been used without awaiting the
action of congress. Like a distin-
guished predecessor on another oc-
cassion, Mr.. Wilson has acted and has
then let congress debate an accom-
plished fact. It matters little, per-
haps, what congress does; It mat
ters little In what phrAseology the

CHRISTIAN UNION CARES
 .FOR MANY HOMELESS MEN

Some of the details of the work Of the Bridgeport Christian Union in a single year are shown by the follow ing figures:
 Meals furnished 26.304; beds furnish ed in the dormitory, 9,a35 ;men fur nished with work 2,677; men furnish ed with work in the Unions wood yard. 2,5s4 ;rnen who attended religi- ous services at the institution 21,- s59.
 The present rented quarters are in- adequate to the demands made on them, and it was only with the great est effort, that the work represented by the figures above could be done in a single year. In fact this was the maximum limit of the work in the present quarters and number of wor- thy cases could not be given attention because of the lack of room and fa- ci1ities.
 There is every indication now that the demands of next winter will be greater than ever before since the es- tab1ishing of the Bridgeport Christian Union in Bridgeport. This means that possibly hundreds of men will be turn ed away from the doors Of the insti- tuition because there is no room for them within.
