EFFECTIVE WAR LECTURE
WELL ILLUSTRATED
OUTLOOK NOT REASSURING,
SAYS SHIPLEY

Another good crowd turned out last
Sunday evening to hear comrade May
nard Shipley's second lecture on "The
European War and It's Effect Upon
the American Worklngclass," The
fundamental causes OF war were clear
ly and impressively expounded to an
audience that was composed of at
least fifty per cent non-Socialists.
The splendid stereopticon views
brought out most forcibly the mercin-
airy motives and the commercial bases
of all modern wars, not to say ancient
ones, as well.
Comnde Shipley cited numerous
facts and incidents all of which tend
to show that the United States would
become involved in war at a very
early date. "The workers having
voted for war on November 3rd," said
the speaker, there remains no hope
now that war can be averted. 1t is a
question of the destruction of the
many unfit, and these will drag down
with them the relatively few who
have intelligence and forethought.
War kills off the fools first, but even
the Socialists may be dragged into
the bloody arena, as they are dragged
down now into the trenches of
France, Belgium and elsewhere. The
outlook is not reassuring."

HOUSE GIVES RIGHT.
TO ACT At ONCE
PRESIDENT APPEARS BEFORE
CONGRESS AND SUBMITS
TAMPIco INCIDENT.
THE VOTE WAS 337 TO 81
The Debate Was Warm and Pointed
Continuing Two Hours Before
the Vote.

Washington.-After a spirited de-
bate of more than two hours the house
passed the administration resolutions
approving President Wilson's purpose
to use the armed forces of the nation
to obtain from General Huerta the
fullest recognition of the honor and
dignity of the United States.
The vote was 337 to 81. The reso-
luton was passed at 9:25 and went
to the senate.
Warm debate began as soon as
the resolution was reported by the
foreign affairs committee.
When Representative Flood asked
unanimous consent that the resolu-
ton and the report be read, Represen-
tative Leader Mann reserved the right
to object to the present consideration
of the resolution and demanded an
explanation. Representative Under
wood explained that the administra-
ton desired to have the bill passed
before the night and that reasonable
debate would be allowed. He said
that the rules committee was prepar-
ing to bring in rule for immediate
consideration of the resolution if nee
essary.
Chairman Flood said that he was
prepared to allow half an hours de-
bate on the resolution on each side
of the house. Representative Mann
declared that the minority needed two
hours debate. "
.tThe president has advised us of
conditions" said Representative Un-
derwood. eve would not insist on
putting this resolution through at
this time if this were not matter of
presidents message delivered, our
troops may be fired on at any time
We should act now"
A round of Democratic applause
greeted this statement. Shouts of
bring in a rule" hurry it through"
from the Democratic side interrupted
the efforts to secure a unanimous
consent agreement Representative
Mann finally agreed that he would
accept one hour and a half for the
Republicans. representative Under
wood said the Democrats would De
satisfied with one hour.
Representative Sisson, Democrat, of
Mississippi, declaring that the resolu-
ton was declaration of war and as
such was a matter which congress
should fully consider" objected to
any agreement.

pensive naval operations, in anticipa-
ton of Huerta's defiance of this gov
eminent
In reply to Huerta's proposed new
conditions Secretary Daniels sent the
following message in substance: "Am
certain that President Wilson would
not consent to have you sign the pro-
tocol mentioned in your telegram. The
Salute should be fred without any
agreement as to it's return. The
Uuited States of America can be re-
lied on according to international Gus
tom and courtesy, to do it's duty. The
signing of the protocol would be OBJ
iectionable in addition to other rea-
sons, because of the fact that it might
be construed as recognition of the
Huerta Government whereas the
President has no intention of recog-
nizing that government.

PRESIDENT BRIEF AS USUAL,
Knows What He Wants and Asks
Congress For 1t.

Washington.-In an atmosphere of
suppressed excitement rejecting
grave tension and patriotic fervor, the
president of the United States asked
Congress in person for approval of his
purpose to use the army and navy
to force General Huerta to apologize
for indignities offered to the Ameri-
can government. It was the first lime
since the war with Spain that the
president had placed so grave an in
ternational crisis before the national
legislature. Mr. Wilson spoke in SOL
emn tones. When he entered the
house chamber the cheers and an
plause that greeted him were wildly
enthusiastic-an outburst of the ten
sion that has prevailed in the national
capital. AS he read his message the
applause came largely from the Demo
cratic side, many Republicans remain
ing conspicuously silent,a It. presag-
ed an opposition to the presidents re.
quest which was not long in making
it's appearance
President Wilson mad pointed out
that under presidents he didsnot need
the authority of congress to act: hut
merely sought their counsel, advice
and approval Sin matter possibly OF
so grave consequence"

WILSON GIVES HIS VIEWS

Following is the official statement is.
sued as representing the views Of
President Wilson and the administra-
ton on Mexico:
I'm discussions in official circles in
Washington of the present Mexican
situation the following points have
been very much dwelt upon:
1T has been pointed out that, in
considering the present somewhat
delicate situation in Mexico, the IN
pleasant incident at Tampico must not
be thought of alone. For some time
past the de facto government of Mex
leo has seemed to think mere apollo
gies sufficient when the rights Of
American citizens or the dignity of
the government of the United States
were involved and has apparently
made no attempt at either reparation
or the effective correction of the seri-
GUS derelictions of it's civil and mill
tary officers.
Orderly Placed In Jail.
Immediately after the incident at
Tampico an. orderly from one of the
ships of the United States in the har-
Dor of Vera Cruz, who had been sent
ashore to the post Office for the ships
mail, and who was in uniform and
who had the official mail bag on his
back, was arrested and put into jail
by the local authorities. He was sub
seQuently released and nominal pun
ishment was inflicted upon the officer
who arrested him, but it was signiti-
cant that an orderly from the fleet of
the United States was picked out
from the many persons constantly go
ing shore on various errands, from
the various. ships in the harbor, rep
resenting several nations.
Official Dispatch Withheld.
Most serious of all, the officials In
charge Of the telegraph office at Mex
leo City presumed to withhold an on
cial dispatch of the government of the
United States to it's embassy at Mex,
leo City, until it should have been
sent to the censor and his permission
received to deliver it, and gave the
dispatch into the hands of the charge
d'affaires of the United States only
upon his personal and emphatic de-
mand, he having in the meantime
learned through other channels that
a dispatch bad been sent him which
he had not received.
United States Singled Out.
cit cannot but strike anyone who
has watched the course Of events IN
Mexico as significant that untowaro
incidents such as these have not &C.
Cured in any case where representa-
tives of other governments were con-
cerned, but only In dealings with rep
resentatives of the United States, ana
that there has been no occasion Tor
other governments to call attention 10
such matters or to ask for apologies
These repeated offenses against
the rights and dignity Of the United
States, offenses not duplicated with
regard to- the representatives of other
governments, have necessarily mace
the impression that the government
of the United States was singled out
for manifestations of i'll will and con-
tempt"

Observation-Disclosures upon ar
rival of the Atlantic fleet the United
States Government will take posses
sion of the Mexican custom houses at
Tampico and Vera Cruz.
Detailed plans for landing of ma
rines at these two important coast
towns were completed at conference
at the White House between Presi-
dent Wilson, Secretaries Bryan, Gar
rison and Daniels. Major, General
Wood, and Rear Admiral Fiske and
Bile, and John Lind.
"No orders to the Army and Navy
will be issued at present" was the
announcement made after the confer
ence, action temporarily being de-
tered until Congress acts on the joint
resolution approving the Presidents
purpose Of using the armed forces
of the United States to enforce its de-
mands against General Huerta, grow
ing out of the arrest at Tampico of
American bluejackets.
The resolution passed the House by
vote of 337 to 81, after a spirited
debate. For several hours it was
considered by the Senate Foreign Re-
lations Committee with prospects of
an all night session of the Senate,
or recess until early next day.
Persons who were in touch with
the president said the steps which
would be taken by the United States
short of war" were of nature which
would not require formal notification
to the powers in the same sense as a
declaration of blockade or other pre-
liminaries to war. Foreign govern
ments will be kept informed of deveQ-
ments, however,
The debate in the house brought
out the fact that while the Ameri-
can navy probably would block Mex
leo off from commerce with the Uni
ted States, it would not interfere with
the passage to and fro of foreign, YES
sells, though cargoes discharged on
the shore might be held at the custom
houses.
