Marked by a Debate on
Federal Control.

Madison, Wis, May lS.-What prom-
-ses to be ONE of the most interesting
debates at the governors conference.
Which convenes here June Q, will be
over the subject of the state control
of natural esources. The governors
of eastern states are in favor of ma
tlonal control. The issue over this
subject has become so pronounced that

favor of state control of natural re
sources.
The subject will be presented by
Gov. William Spry, of Utah. who has
so notified Secretary Miles Riley of the
conference. One of the plans that will
be urged by the western governors in
connection with the policy of con-
servation is that . per cent of the pub

states individually to aid in the con-
.struction of permanent roads.

TOLLS EXEMPTION
PLANK FAVORED BY
BRYAN, HE CLAIMS

Washington. May 1S.-The statement
that William Jennings Bryan deliber-
ately approved the tolls exemption
plank of the democratic platform, as
a member of the subcommittee on res
olutions. which prepared the platform,
was made in the Senate today by SEN
ator Walsh. of Montana, secretary of
the subcommittee.
Senator Walsh declared an open re-
pudiation of a solemn by a
political party WOULD cause III to recoil-
from it with horror, We're it proposed
by any other man than the president
of the United States. AS for myself
hue because he commends t." added
the senator.
AS a substitute for the repeal bill
Senator Walsh urged the adoption of
former President Taft's proposal to
submit the controversy to the supreme
court. The Montana senator took up
at length the Baltimore platform. h1-
cause he said it had been intinlated the
tolls plank had been inserted sur
reptitiously and he declared his belief
that the subcommittee of II elected to
draft the platform received the pro-
posed tolls plank from Senator O'Gor-
man.
Was Not Debated.
There was no debate on it simply
because III was generally approved or
acquiesced in, said Senator Walsh. He
said Secretary Bryan and Senator
O'Gorman We're asked to put the plat
form in appropriate language and that
they invited Senate Pomerene and
himself to assist.
When the tolls plank was pre-
sented,' said Senator Walsh, Mr..
Bryan expressed his approval, but said
it should be accompanied by another
plank declaring against the admission
of railroad owned ships to the canal.
And so the platform reads after the
declaration concerning tolls:
I'VE also'-note the also-favor
legislation forbidding the use of the
Panama canal by ships owned or con-
trolled by railroad carriers engaged
in transportation competitive with the
canal"
Senator Walsh said he had no temp
tation to escape from the trammels
of the platform on the puerile sugges-
ton that the plank was c%ontradicted
by another against subsidies.
why, In that view the canal itself
is a subsidy to the shipping interests
he declared. why did we spend $780,
900, 900 TO build it. except to aid the
shipping interests%

The success of the constitutionalist
arms over Huerta would mari the cul
mination OF more than a century OF
strife growing out OF the NeXed land
question in Mexico. This problem
likely will form the subject of chief
interest among Carranza's policies. In
Chihuahua where the constitutionalists
are in control, the co~nfiscation and re-
distribution OF great haciendas was one
of the first official acts of III rebel
chief. Whether he Intends to pursue
a similar policy throughout Mexico in
the event of his success and\Ilst how
such a nolicy would he actvpted by

such a contingency is minated in dis
patches from Mexico City stating that
foreigners in the capital are fortifyins
themselves preparing to NEE. any

FOR SUCCESS Of
REBELS RAISES SERIOUS
PROBLEMS ABOUT FUTURE

Washington, May 15-After Huerta, what?H This question has.
been asked many times since the rise to power of the Mexican dictator
whose downfall now is imminent. The answer to the question is not
yt apparent.
1t is generally conceded that the capture of Mexico City by the
nsurrectionists will not long be deferred. The Zapatstas are an
Immediate menace, forcing Huerta to keep all the troops available in
Mexico City, thus rendering the advance of Villa easier.
With the fall of Huerta and the ascendency of Carranza, the
American government likely will be asked to recognize the con-
shtutmnalist government. Ii representations have been made on this
|pont-and doubtless there has been an exchange of views-profound
secrecy shrouds the constitutionalist proposals.
There have been few inhmahons from Carranza regarding his
immediate plans ii he succeeds in overthrowing Huerta. So far as
the outside world is concerned nothing has been made known con-
corning the measures he will take.
