 Signalizing change from the 'watchful waiting" policy which has guided relations with Mexico for mora than two years, the presidents state. ment was regarded everywhere in of ficial and diplomatic quarters as the notice of new and vigorous policy to restore peace below the Rio Grande.
 Everywhere, 1t was interpreted as a warning that the patience of the Unit ed States is exhausted.
 What steps the president is pre- pared to take if his warning goes un- needed is not disclosed n the state. ment. In high official quarters. neve-- theless, no doubt existed that he is prepared to proceed.
 White House officials refused to am plify the presidents statement, say ing that any further steps in his new policy would be announced as they were decided on
 The president conferred with Miss Mabel T. Boardman of the Red Cross on relief for the famine sufferers.
 Secretary Bryan announced receipt of dispatch from the Mexican Red Cross emphasizing the great need in Mexico City. Another appeal to local Red Cross committees throughout the country will be issued soon to ex- pedite gathering of supplies at tho border.
