Germany A Thrifty Nation.

 Berlin, June 19.-"America

 has made thorough study of European thrift and will make a report to his society and to the United States government of the
 results of his observations and investigations.
 My investigations in Ger many have impressed me with
 the need for extending the ac- Itivities of the American Society for Thrift and making it interna-
 tional," said MT. Strauss to the
 United Press. "We have become prodigal in the United States and I am here to learn the ways of thrift, but I find that the German nation is more thrifty than the German individual. Thrift is an anomaly. In Ameri- ca we have taken up the sys-
 tematic education of the peo- pie to greater individual thrift, knowing that without that our municipal, state and national af- fairs will not be run on thrift lines. One of the purposes of our society was to learn from in
 quiry in foreign countries, and I have observed and learned
 much which I hope may be na- tionally useful in America. The physical condition of the men, the longer and more special ized school system, and the CO., operative buying and selling,

United Press Dispatch.

United Press Dispatch.
 Vera Cruz, June 20.-By de- hberate overt act to force an armed intervention if mediation fails is declared to be Huerta's latest plan.
 Everything indicates that Huerta is waiting only for me- diation to be declared futile and have troops near Vera Cruz to commit a breach of the practi- cal armistice. The behavior of Mexican troops towards the Amerian troops add to this opin- ion for they were formerly friendly, but recently are in sulting and jibing. The army believes that the new spirit is the direct order of Huerta be- cause for the first time since the Americans occupied Vera Cruz, Huerta's soldiers at the line are pillaging baggage and passen- gers coming from Mexico City tc to the coast.
