Widest Scenes Mark Mexican
National Convention.
''Give Us COrn!" Cry HOrdes of
Starving People.
y STATES NOW IN DIRE NEED
Harvest Far Off and MYTHICAL
Because Not Planted.
War-TOrn Nation Forced to
Look to Charity of u. s.

Mexico City. May 22.-(Correspond-
ence of the Associated Press.)-For
the last three days of the sessions of the
socaller national convention in the
chamber of deputies building have
been scenes of the widest disorder.
Not only the galleries, but at times
the floor and speakers tribune, have
been rushed by hordes of hungry men,
women and children:
The shouts of 1--WE want corn
drowned all others, and even the show
of bayonets and the firing of the SOL
diers over the heads of the mob have
not checked the vain and piteous
search for food. The Red Cross has
been kept busy carrying off women
and children, and in some cases old
men, who were crushed or overcome
in these manifestations.
Hungry Mob Surrounds Chamber.
Ten thousand persons gathered out
side the chamber today and nearly 800
were carried off on stretchers.
Acting President General Rogue
Gonzales Garcia appeared before the
convention delegates and a portion of
the mob to tell them that the treasury
was empty, the fields laid waste by
the contending revolutionaries, and
that the only hope for the coming
winter was that all Mexicans lay down
their arms and begin the tilling of the
fields.
hep6dleuly the crowns answered
him.. saying:
''Give- us corn. Our women and
children are dying of hunger. Give
us corn
A comparatively small supply was
obtained from the foreign relief COM
mittee and this assuaged the wants of
the day.
Crops Everywhere Short.
Crops everywhere are short, and in
all but five of the twenty-seven states
of Mexico there is absolute want with
the new harvest many months away
and mythical because to a large extent
implanted.
Even states productive as Morelos
and Guanajuato are calling for corn,
while armies turn their cavalry into
anything green to be found and kill
cattle and other farm animals for
their hides.
1t is estimated that unless relief
comes from the outside, more than
100000 people will be in danger of
starvation.
In normal times it requires approx
mately 100000 tons of corn to feed
them. Farmers and grain dealers say
this must be obtained in the United
States, but as Mexico has no. money to
pay for even a part of what is needed,
she will be compelled to throw herself
on the charity of the United States, ac-
cording to these authorities.
