PROF. STARR GIVES US SIZE-UP OF THE
MINI OF THE HOUR! HERO EXPEGT ,EiiiD
BY PROF. FREDERICK STARR,
AnthropOlogist, the University Of
Chicago.

BY PROF. FREDERICK STARR,
AnthropOlogist, the University Of
Chicago.
Where is the man to deal with
Mexico's present crisis?
History has shown us that in
the hour of need hero always
arises. In Mexico, IL the nation is
allowed to work ont its own des-
tiny, such a man will certainly
come! Looking over the present
field, who is available?
VIII Zapata answer? The
question is needless. Zapata is a
brigand; he glories in arson, rap
inc and plumber; he is q leader of
men who wish to loot, steal and
destroy. An ideal bandit ruler,
he has not single quality of the
national ruler, and Ii would be i'm
possible for foreign governments
to deal with a government headed
by him.
There is more propriety in the
mention of the Vasquez Gomez
brothers. Emilio and Francisco
Vasquez Gomez have been leaders
in the democratic struggle which
has been waging in Mexico since
1910. One of them has more
than once been proclaimed provi-
sional president of Mexico. They
write well and have high ideals.
But 1t is doubtful whether they
can lead and control.
Then there Is FREDERICK Gam
boa, unquestionably man of
power. AS a literary man he has
few IL any superiors In the repub-
lie. He can be trusted to deal
with delicate matters of states
manship. With all due respect to
our own peerless leader, Mr..
Bryan is no match for Senior GAM
boa. III Mexico were at peace,
Gamboa would be a proper and
strong candidate for the presi-
dency. But at this time he il not
man of sufficient push and en-
ergy, enterprise and magnetism to
succeed fully as a party leader.
Many believe that the only hope
Of the Mexican republic in the
present crisis Is De La Barra.
When ambassador at Washington,
De La Barra made few mistakes
and his diplomatic training Is
good. But he Is far from being a
man of the pronounced views and
strong ideals desirable at the
present moment.
VictOriano Huerta, left to him
self, would have been eliminated
long ago. Had the United States
been content simply with nom
recognition, he would have been
hurled from power a few weeks
after attaining II, ms surely as the
morrow's sun will rise. BUT WE
MADE HIM A MARTYR; he was
pat In the position Of leader Of a
people who were being brow.
beaten from outside. So his POSI-
tion aroused sympathy and sup
port among Mexicans, and today
he Is more respectable and re-
spectcd than he was many months
ago. But Huerta cannot with
stand the powerful American I'm
fIuence against him. He.has been
crippled financially and will not
long be able to maintain himself.

MATTER OF CONJECTURE.
Not Known Whether Eastern Rail
roads Will Get Increased Rates.

II Is still largely conjecture in the minds
Of outsiders as to whether or not the
Interstate commerce commission will
grant any increase in rates to the east
ern railroads. The roads are asking for
5 per cent advance. 1t is thought that
the increase will be granted on some
classes of freight. particularly the finer
grades, and denied on others, especially
the rougher and buikier sorts.
Of1cials Of the commission absolutely
deny the reports that have gained cir
culation lately concerning what the de-
cision will be. They state that the deci-
sion will be known when 1t Is known, and
will be given out when it is given out.
It is claimed that decision just handed
down in the case of the Maine Central
railroad, which asked for the right to
increase rates. and which petition was
denied. -cay perhaps point to the final
decision of the commission on the per
cent increase asked by the eastern rail-
roads.

Demonstrations, Parades. Meetings,

The executive council of the American
Federation of Labor. in annual session,
yesterday. at national headquarters IN the
Ouray Building, adopted resolutions call
ing upon labor men all over the United
States to celebrate Labor day. 1914. with
meetings. addresses and other demon
strations. and scoring the observance of
the day as a mere holiday. often for the
exploitation of private profit
The council last night issued a state
NEST dealing with the subject. in which 1t
is declared that some labor organizations
have fallen into error and have aban-
doned Labor day demonstrations in the
belief that such expenditure of time. ef-
fort and money is wasted.
Political Campaign Publicity.
Such abandonment is declared by the
council to be a mistake. The council also
announced that consideration was given
at its sessions to the possibility of having
enacted at this session of Congress law
which will compel adequate publicity OF
campaign contributions to influence cleo

Significance of Labor Day.
The statement regarding the coming
celebration of Labor day is in part as
follows:
"Shall Labor day lose its distinctive
character and become a mere holiday for
general meaningless purposes. and for the
exploitation of private profit?
Labor day belongs to the working peo-
pie of America. 1t is for them to de-
termine its value and significance. Those
outside the labor movement test its
strength and viriiity by the way in which
Labor day is observed.
Some labor organizations have aban
doned regular Labor day demonstra-
tions, paradeS. meetings. addresses in
the belief that such expenditures Of
time, effort and money are wasteful. This
is most serious mistake. Such labor
demonstrations are not wasteful. and
