If THE WORST HAPPENS.

But II II should not, If no man or group
OF men worthy of our moral support can be
found. II the Mexicans themselves cannot
organize government OF the sort we could
recognize, II the chieftains cannot accom-
modate their differences and unite for this
great purpose within a very short time this
Government will be constrained to decide
what means should be employed by the
United States in order to help Mexico save
herself and serve her people" Our active
efforts in such quandary would doubtless
be confined to a seizure OF important ports,
such as Vera Cruz, possibly the occupation
Of the capital, and certainly a stoppage of
the shipment to Mexico of arms and munl-
tions OF war
COMPLETE REVERSAL OF POLICY.
1t is significant that the President ad-
dressed his note to the American people and
not 20 the Mexican chieftains. So recently
as January s, at indianapolis, restive under
criticism. he declared:
II Is none of my business ana It Is nons
ef yours how they (the Mexicans) go about
their business The country Is theirs The
Government Is theirs The liberty. n thew
can get it-and God speed them in gettinK
it-is theirs And so far as my influence
goes. while l am President, nobody shall
interfere with them. : : Have not Euro
nean nations taken as long as they wanted
and split as much blood as they pleased In
settling their affairs, and shall We deny that
20 Mexico because she Is weak?
Obviously so radical a reversal OF policy.
IN 50 short a time requires explanation to
the American people. Yet few will critielss
the President for the change Instead. there
Is relief apparent that at last common sense
Is getting the better OF hysteria ana sentl.
mentality in the definition of a Mexican pro
gram.
No SUBTLE MOTIVE IN THE NOTE.
II has been charged that the Administration
IS emphasIzing the Mexican situation to dis
tract attention from the crisis in our rela-
siona with Germany There is little ground
fos such belief. particularly as it win not

At Last Mexican Program Based on Facts

At Last Mexican Program Based on Facts
TNHB Presidents Mexican note is inspiring
on one account; namely, in It's assurance
that at last the Administration is ready to
base It's policy on tho facts instead of on
what It thinks ought to be the facts.
There is In the note no intmation Of inter-
vention az the term is commonly understood.
It is scarcely possible that the President
would order military occupation OF the
country, which is filled with shadowy groups
of bandits. A solidlhcation of effort among
the chiefs might be accomplished by an
American invasion, through a union to re-
sist It, but that is q method OF solidihcation
that would appeal neither to the President
nor to this country at large. There are
other methods by which we can translate
our fiat into law and achieve the re-estab-
lishment of peace and order, of stable gov
ernment, in Mexico.
MORAL SUPPORT MEANS RECOGNITION
To that end the President is explicit in his
statement that our action may take the
form OF vital moral support to some men or
group of men, II such may be found, who
can rally the suffering people of Mexico to
their support" Moral support in such an
instance might readily mean recognition of
the government formed by such group,
which recognition would clothe It with bor-
rowing power and so endow It with supreme
resources for carrying on a successful war.
In fact, victory in all Mexican revolutions
has rested on the side recognized by the
United States, Our failure to recognize
Huerta drove him out; our recognition of
him would have kept him in, The attitude
of the United States, therefore, has hitherto
been the deciding factor in Mexican affairs.
There is no reason to assume that it would
not be now.
