BIG MAN IN WHITE HOUSE

"Tell Fletcher to sieze the customs
house." was the order given by Presi-
dent Wilson when awakened at a
6,clock Tuesday morning and told
that a German steamer was off Vera
Cruz with big ship of arms and am
munition for Huerta. People who
have eudeavored to show that Wilson
is of the indecisive sort can find
nothing In that to bear out their con-
tention. 1t was a big and tremendous
problem put to him at time when
a man is usually not at his best, but
he decided quick and decided right
The more one learns of Woodrow
Wilson the more one realizes that the
Democrats placed in the white house
a great big man, probably the great
est constructive statesman of his
time.

Pres. WILSON: WARNS
CARRANZ AAND Others
CONTINUED FROM PAGE OND

Tampico, and general exodus of
Americans from Mexican cities was
reported.
RearAdmiral Badger requested per-
mission to capture all Mexican gun
boats and vessels carrying troops or
ammunition for the aid of the Next
cans around Vera Cruz.
The national capital was nervous
with excitement while the diplomatic
relations of the Huerta government
and the United States were being
finally severed, and the army and
navy continued to put themselves on
war basis.
Revelation of the purposes of Car
rama and Huerta are being awaited
before a complete military campaign
is developed. The United States in
tends to take no offensive steps for
the present, preferring to hold Vera
Cruz until the situation in Mexico
City and elsewhere crystallizes.
The attitude of General Carranza
as explained in his note, showing
that he regards the invasion of Vera
Cruz as a violation of Mexican SOW
ereignty, forced President Wilson to
change his whole policy. The posi-
bility that the great body of consti-
tutionalist forces along the interna-
tional boundary might take an Of
fensive stand is now recognized
Many predicted early invasion of Mex
leo all along the line.
