PROPOSES
AC0NCERT
OF ACTION

Philadelphia, April 3.--A Concert of
action" among American republics in
defense of the principle Of America
for Americans" as a. substitute for the
manner in which the Monroe doctrine
is enforced today by the United States
alone, was urged by Rear Admiral
Colby M. Chester in a speech here to-
day before the American Academy OF
Political and Social Science.
1.-TWO distinct and far-reaching
principles are laid down in the Mon
the principle of 'self-defense.' The
second is that South American re-
publics, which followed our lead in
declaring their independence. should
have our protection in maintaining
this doctrine for themselves.
"The first principle is automatic and
immutable, and all other considera
tions must give way to it. The second
is arnenable to changes or amend
ments that will bring it into accord
with new conditions that arise The
question now is, therefore, do the
same conditions prevail in the west
ern continent today that existed at
the time President Monroe sent his
message to congress in 1923?
we should remember that the!
South American republics were In
their infancy at the time the Monroe
Doctrine was declared and were
struggling against great odds for lib
erty. The United States proclaimed!
herself the protector of the western
world as a matter OF necessity. for
without her aid the newly formed re-
publics were helpless to battle against
the great odds opposing them.
The question today. SO far as our
own national defense lis concerned, is,
would i. be a menace to interests cen
tered SO far away as the United
States II a European power. whose pn-i
litica1 and even religious aspirations
NAV be the same as our own. should

Torreon, April 3--T'his city, strewn
| with dead and wounded Of the six
days battle was occupied by the
rebels last night on the heels of the
| fleeing federals. In all the fighting
no foreigner was killed or in
jured.
The taking Of the city marks the
| climax of the first campaign of the
revolution to oust Huerta from the
presidential castle in the city of Mexi-
CO. It gives the constitutionalists
virtual control over the whole north
ern tier of Mexican states.
The fighting began here last Friday
and was almost continuous. At first
Villa attempted assaults on the strong
federal positions in the daylight, but
these proved costly. so the days were
spent in cannonading and nights in
assaults.
Positions were taken, and lost time
and again. Several night attacks
sent the federals scurryins from their
strong positions but at daybreak the
captors would be compelled to aband =
on them by the strength and accuracy
Of the enemy's artillery fire much
Of which is said to have been directed
by French and German gunners.
The losses have not been compiled
losses at 500 killed and 1900 wounded
and federal loss at 1000 dead and g.
500 wounded with unknown number
prisoners.
Federal Loss Nearly Total
Villa believes that federals whom
his cavalry is pursuing to the south
forms but remnant Of the federal
forces whose loss he says is prob
ably close to being total. All the
subordinate generals have not yet re-
ported. however. and until they do
just how many were captured cannot
be accurately stated. K
The battle lines were four miles
long, The field being determined by

The federals had fortified the hills
with rifle pits, trenches and barb
wire entanglements. The nature Of
the ground made it difficult to re-
cover the wounded and many of them
died from thirst, hunger and lack Of
attention, where they fell.
Automobiles were used in the re-
scue work but they could not ascend
the hillsides. Along the bases of
hills runs the railroad tracks, in this
field the battle was fought.

Washington, April 3.The Under
wood simmons tariff act went into
effect six months ago today. The pres
ent indications are that it will not re-
5iuce the customs revenues any more
than estimated in congress at the time
OF the passage.
According to the treasurer's March
statement the customs revenues
amounted to about $26,000,000, which
is about $1,500,000 less than the
Payne A1drich law produced In March,
1919 That was a marked increase
over February when the revenue fell
over s10,000,000. compared to Febru-
ary, 1913.
