BRITAIN TO ACT
AT PROPER Time
Sir Edward Gray Explains
Governments Position.
AWAITS AMERICAN ACTION
If United States Fails to Take Further
Steps in Benton Killing Great Britain
viii, He Says, Proceed to Secure
Reparation In Her Own Way

viii, He Says, Proceed to Secure
Reparation in Her Own Way.
London, March Aft the United
States desires by force to obtain
reparation from Mexico for the mur-
der of British and American subjects
Great Britain will gladly await the
result.
If the United States does not take
such action Great Britain will de-
mand reparation at such time as 1t
best can be done.
These, in effect, we're the state
ments of Sir Edward Grey, British
foreign secretary, in the house of
commons. In reply to question as
to the investigation into the death at
Juarez of William s. Benton, the
British ranchman, Sir Edward said
II must ask leave of the house to
make a somewhat more extended
statement than can be properly com.
pressed within the limits of an an.
swer to a question.
"All the efforts that have been
made hitherto have failed to secure
an investigation into the facts re-
specting the death of William s. Ben.
ton.
"The persistent difficulties put In
the way of such an investigation
create the strongest presumption of
a desire and an intention to conceal
the truth on the part of those In Mex
leo who are responsible for what has
happened.
United States Not Responsible.
Communications with the govern.
ment of the United States are still
proceeding, but | would repeat what
| said last week-that these commu.
nications do not imply that the gov.
ernment of the United States has any
responsibility for what has taken
place-by which | mean, of course,
the death of Benton.
While, therefore, We shall welcome
any action that the United States is
prepared to take TO secure justice we
have no title to demand as a righ,
that the United States should itself
resort to the use of force.
Il would, therefore, sum up the sit
uation by saying that IL the United
States thinks 1t proper to take further
steps either on behalf of its own citi
zens or of British subject we will
gladly wait the result.
But if for reasons of it's own the
United States does not think 1t desir-
able to take such steps, We must, OF
course, reserve to ourselves the right
to secure reparation whenever 1t Is
In our power to do So
THE violent death of British sub
ject and the refusal of those in Mex
leo to allow the circumstances to be
investigated make it incumbent upon
us to do what we can on our own be.

test. There are already a number OF
avowed candidates and a much larger
number OF ladies are saving votes and
looking over the field" like regular
candidates for office.
This trip is well worth all the EFFORT
that will be required TO win Il, and
before the contest is much older there
will be large number OF active can.
dldates in the field. This contest is
on a high plane and II appeals much
more strongly 10 the people than an
ordinary contest, and wise prophets
are forecasting a warm race between
the fair candidates. Everyone IN
town is becoming interested and sew.
eral ladies from the county and sur.
rounding towns are either openly or
quietly lining up their friends.
Just who is going TO have the honor
Of representing this city on the party
is an open speculation as yet All Of
the candidates now in the field have
strong support. Whoever the winner
happens to be will receive a reward
that she will remember for a long
time. Advices from headquarters Of
the association that is handling these
contests for the various cities and

that arrangements for the party arc

A. & NJ. BOARD WILL
NOT PARTICIPATE
Refused TO Meet Other Schools In
Conference for Special
Tax.

The board Of directors Of the A. G.
VI. College have declined TO meet in
conference with the board Of regents
OF the university and similar commit.
tees from the State normal schools
and the College OF Industrial Arts for
the purpose OF considering ways Of
securing a special tax levy for the
support Of these institutions Of higher
learning.
In explaining their refusal to par
ticipate in this conference, Z. B.
Gushing, president Of the board OF A.
& NJ. says: I'VE are not striving TO
stand in the way OF the future devel-
opment OF any educational institution
in Texas. We realize that there are
advantages and benefits to be derived
from the tax levy and at a more aus.
picious time we will favor such levy.
When the public is burdened with
financial problems and business con-
ditions are as unfavorable as they are
now /, seems folly TO talk Of a special
tax levy and we have no desire TO
urge further taxation.
Later when conditions have i'm
proved and the people are freed from
some OF their money burdens we will
advocate just as strongly as others
the adoption of a constitutional
amendment providing for a special tax
levy for these schools"
This conference called by the uni
versi;y regents was to have been held
in Austin on November 30, but was
postponed indefinitely. Resolutions
providing for the appointment of a
committee from the A. & NJ. board
20 confer with a similar committee
from the university regents for the
purpose Of considering the more
fundamental relations of the two in.
situations, including separation, were
adopted by the A. & NJ. board. This
conference was set for December Is
but as yet no action on this PROPOSE
tion has been taken by the university
regents.
