THE PRIMARY SCHOOL

The new brick primary school, To-
Gated on South Third street, in the
second ward, built only five years
ago and thought at that time TO be
very elegant AMI amply adequate, IS
now badly over-croWded AMI cannot
care fer all OF the little ones.
The school board will expend
about $4,000 OF the bond issue on
this building. making an addition
almost as large as the present build
ing. This can be done very nicely,
for the building was built with that
possibility in view. The addition
will be on the south side. Plans are
now being sketche1 for this work
and will be submitted to the board
at its next meeting and the work
Will be done during the summer and
all completed before the opening OF

DESIRE SUPPORT
FOR FELIX D|Az
Cool Proposition Made by Mexicans
to Members of the Foreign
Relations Committee

Washington, March 6.-Although
Great Britain's reluctance to press
the Benton case at this time has
made the Mexican situation less
acute. there are several separate as
poets which it is most certain will
lead to spirited debate IN the Senate
in a few days. 1t has become known
that data concerning the number of
foreigners killed in Mexico since
armed revolution began, is being
gathered by the state department for
Senator Shivley, ranking member OF
the foreign relations committee, who
is expected TO present official records
about conditions in the southern re-
public. 1t was reported that Senator
Fall OF New Mexico would open the
debate urging a change of policy.
Asked to Support Diaz
Incidentally the New Mexico SEN
ator presented TO the foreign rela-
tions committee Pedro del Villar and
Cecelio Ocon, representing the po-
litical interests of Felix Diaz. Mem
bers of the committee were frankly
amazed when the Mexicans sought
the moral support of the United
States for a movement to bring about
peace in Mexico by another revolu-
tion headed by Diaz. The committee
had no idea, it is said, of the exact
purpose of their visit other than they
wished to present information about
the situation in Mexico. Members
of the committee fatty stated that
the United States could not recog-
niZe any such movement
Villar and Ocon severely arraigned
Huerta as corrupt, and Carranza and
Villa as bandits and urged that Felix
Diaz had host of loyal Mexican cit
izens behind him who would rush to
his support to establish a real gov
ernment in Mexico. They sought a
promise from the American govern
ment that it would uphold Diaz and
recognize him If the counter-revolu-
ton succeeded. Several members of
the committee characterized the
proposition as preposterous.
