~ JOHN Z. NEvIN,

Stan Correspondent The United Prsss
WASHINGTON, April 6.--Adverse
criticism OF the makeup Of the federal
reserve districts made by Secretaries
Houston and McAdoo il meeting with
no response from President Wilson
The executive said today that he be-
lieved that the, selections were hon
estly made: that they were decided
upon after complete investigation oil
actual trade conditions and capitalize,
ton and exchange methods OF the
banks In each district. The president
indicated that he believed the selec
tons will stand and will not be upset
by the federal reserve board when II
Is named. Just when this board will
be designated he was unable to say. II
is unlikely that 1t will be named for at
least another fortnight.
The president made 1t very plain
that he had no hand In the selection
OF the reserve cities. The committee
however, has furnished him with com.
plete information as to how it reached
it's conclusions. and this has satisfied
him that the selections were funda.
mentally sound. The president took
the position today that while there Ia
keep disappointment in cities that ap-
piled for designation and were turned
down, he Is confident much of this will
disappear when the law actually goes
into operation.
Reports OF impending recognition OF
the belligerency OF the Mexican con-
stitutionalists are premature. The
president said today that he has had
no request of this character from Gen.
CarranEa. He further made 1t plain
that circumstances alone will deter.
recognition of any government In Mex
leo. His hand may be forced by sud.
den developments, but unless this
should take place policy of non-rec-
ignition until stable form OF govern.
ment has been established will be pur.
sued. No information has yet reached

ported action of President Huerta In
revoking the consular designation OF

Ia. 1t is believed, however. that HUI
erta has taken this action, but 1t was
pointed out by the president that this
would make no difference inasmuch az
Carothers has been and Is operating In
territory exclusively in the north, con-
trolled by the corstitutfonalistss AyR
President Wilson refused today to
be- drawn into the controversy which
has arisen through the issue OF an or
der by Secretary Daniels, making the
navy absolutely dry. He took the po-
sition that this is departmental mat
ter for which Secretary Daniels 10
alone responsible, and refused 10 say
whether he had seen the order before
II was Issued.
In expressing his belief today that
stories of Wholesale assertions by SEN
ators on his anti-free tolls program
were untrue. the president made It
plain that he does not believe the tolls
question will be vital issue in this
falls campaign. He said that the
White House had received many CON-
from every section Of the
country and that they uniformly In
dorsed his stand.

The Vanitie OutSailS Rival,
But Loses on ALLOWANCE
Continued from page I

Resolute's men-and she continued to
gain for good part of the second leg
which was another broad reach.
Then there happened one of those
yacht race. The freshenng breeze
dropped suddenly in the Vanities
neighborhood, but kept on favoring the
Herreshoff sloop, and within few
minutes the gap had been closed and
Captain Dennis had lost all but few
hundred yards OF his hard and well
earned advantage.
When the yachts swung around the
mark for a beat home only ] minute -

Az minute lead This one bit Of bad
luck unquestionably lost the day to the
Cochran sloop.
That last leg on the wind was a
heartbreaker. for those who wanted 10
see the Gardner yacht win. for she was
not sailed as well as she might have
been. vet demonstrated clearly that In
light breezes, at least, she can ably
hold her own in windward work.
The Resoute soon caught and
passed her, true enough, but 1t was
the same old tale of pinching and
starving a good craft and so killing
her way. The baby jibtopsail was
backing most of the time, at first. and
the lib also was seldom full. Further
more. Captain Dennis elected to sail In
short tacks, going about every few
minutes, and this seemed a fatal mis-
take. for the Vanitie is not so quick
in stays as the Resolute and each
time both tackled it meant throwing
away ten or more seconds.
That too close sailing and too much
going about was the Cochran yachts
sole trouble became manifest after the
Resolute took the lead. Whether the
presence of Gardner on board ac-
counted for the change in tactics. or
whether Dennis himself realized what
was wrong, the Vanitie got good full
and suddenly stepped out. No more
lacking was done for while and the
way she crept up on the Resoiute,
passed her and left her standing. so to
sneak. was a revelation. And let 1t be
added the Vanitie was not outpointed
when kept full. but held course as
high as her rival and outfooted her. too.

The second turn was iuffed around like
this:

The Resolute sailed this leg in minutes
and seconds faster time than the
vanitle. and they began the windward
work OF ten miles to the finish. 1t IL
estimated that the yachts covered
nearly. IL not quite, fourteen miles, for
the yanitle tackled twentysone times and
the Resolute sixteen.
Both shippers sent up baby lib topsails
for the windward work. and Captain
Adams made the first tack when he
luffed the Resoute around the mark and
split tacks' with the vantie, which was
put on the port tack when she rounded.
She was then / minute and q seconds
ahead OF her rival.
At 1:3s:15 Captain Adams passed the
word Ready about!' to Captain Chris
Hansen as he put the Resolute's helm
hard over. In just thirteen seconds tho
hite sloop was full on the port tack.
Forty-three seconds later the Vanitie
swung to the starboard tack. and min
utes and IL seconds later she came about
again to port. Dennis finding he could
not cross the Resolutes bow In the
next is minutes they made fifteen tacks.
The Vanitie averaged IS seconds in tack

were so close to each other When he
put the Vanitie on the starboard tack at

later to cross her and tack right on her
