THREATENING SITUATION IN
MEXICO CITY MAY CAUSE
LEGATIONS TO WITHDRAW

The situation in the Mexican capt.
tai has been replete with diplomatic
embarrassments since the RAPID
changes in executive authorities en-
sued. When Gen. Carranza, in his ca
pacity Of first chief of the Constitu-
tionalist army first abandoned Mexi-
co City and moved his capital 10 Vera
Cruz, ne invited the diplomatic corps
to accompany him. The diplomats
formally declined on the ground that
such a step might be construed as +
recognition of his government Since
then the relations between Carranza
and the foreign diplomats in Mexico
City have not been cordial.
The return of the Carranza authori-
~ to Mexico City where Gen. Obre-
son is in command, has now developed
into a menacing situation because the
latter has threatened by direction If
Carranza to deport the Spanish min
ister unless Angelic Case who claims
20 be confidential agent of the SpaQisn
government is surrendered from his
hiding place in the Spanish legation:
He is accused of completely in the
Villa movement.
With the strict censorship Of press
dispatches, the most rigorous known
in Mexico in years, and the Difficult
ties of foreign diplomats in commu-
nicating with their home governments,
the situation has caused much anxiety
among officials and diplomats here
So far as known from official tele-
grams, the City Of Mexico is quiet.

Three to Coast

An amendment was adopted author
iZing the construction of three Of the
six destrcyers on the Pacific coast.
Five of the submarines are to be built
there. The bin provides that any of the
vessels authorized may be constructed
in government yards, but Chairman
Badgett of the naval committee, ex-
planned that the New York plant, the
only one to which q battleship might
be given, already was working to it's
capacity.
All new legislation, including provis
ions for the creation of naval re-
serve, for an aide for operations in the
navy department to head a war board,
and for creation of the grades Q. an
admiral and vice admiral. were strick-
en- from the bill several days ago. An
effort will be made 10 have them re-
stored in the Senate.
Nearly Won Fight
The fight for one hattleship was
warmly Waged, and at one time it ap-
parently was won. When Rep. Hobson
moved that four ships be authorized,
Rep. Underwood offered an amendment
to reduce the number to one. The Uni
derwood amendment was carried 142 I'd
129. Immediately afterward, however,
the Hobson amendment as amended
was defeated las to 139, thus leaving
the original provision for two ships
unchanged. The bill itself finally was
passed without a roll call.
MIR Underwood pleaded earnestly for
economy declaring that the House
must decide between retrenchment or
further taxes upon the people. He as
serted that the nation was in no more
danger now than it was two years ago
and the danger would continue to
grow smaller if the United States per-
sued its own way. On the other hand,
he warned that if America entered in
to an armament race it would mean
war at the end of the story
