Chief Will Sign Agreement

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 19-Secre.
tary of Interior Lane and his col.
leagues on the Mexican-American
Joint Commission placed upon Gener-
al Carranza today the responsibility
of deciding whether the American
government should continue its ef.
forts to effect a satisfactory and
amicable adjustments Of the ques'
tions affecting the relations Of the
two countries, and then adjourned un-
til after the holidays: Through his
representatives on the commission
they sent to him a communication
further explaining the position Of the
United States government and con-
tanning protestations that there ex.
lists no intention to violate the SOW
ereignty Of Mexico. 1t was made
clear however, that there can be no
modification Of the conditions on
which the American troops will be
withdrawn from Mexico and that the
attitude Of the government as out
lined in the declaration Of policy
made by Secretary Lane when the
protocol was signed at Atlantic City,
has not been altered.
The communication was terse but
studious care had been exercised to
keep out of the document any phrase
ology that might give offenSe to the
Mexican executive. 1t was not more
than $50 words in length. 1t was
handed TO the Mexican representa-.
tives in joint session and transmitted
by them almost Immediately to Quere-
taro where 1t is expected 1t Will De
given prompt consideration by Gener,

The message Of the Americans was

Mexicans when they .reconyencd here

the Mexicans was not signed by Mr..
Carranza but his spokesman made it

derstood. to have been addressed to
the Mexican commissioners although
intended for their executive.
Neither the Americans nor the
Mexican commissioners, appeared
pessimistic in their. contemplation OF
the future. The Americans insisted
that they had asked Carranza to sign
nothing that would impair his dignity
or that would be incompatible with
the ideals Of his government. The
Mexicans appeared almost equally
confident that ratification Of the pro-
tocol would be withheld no longer

GIVE NATIONAL
.. GUARD A TRIAL
IS PLEA OF WAR
SECRETARY BAKER
Favors Some Form Of Com
pulsory Service But Thinks
Guard Should Show Worth.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Dec. 49,
The agitation for some form OF com
spulsory military service in the United
States received qualified support from
Secretary Baker to-day before the
House military committee, encourag-
ing opponents Of the present volunteer
system to predict that legislation for
change might be framed which would
be sanctioned by Mr.. Baker and pos
sibly by President Wilson himself
The President has said he would not
attempt to reach decision on the sub
ject until definite plan was placed
before him.
Replying to direct question as to
his views on compulsory military serV-
ice Secretary Baker said:
1.-THE obligation to serve the country
is a universal one. The question OF
how to bring about preparation for ma
tienal defense is one Of policy rather
than theory. Whether universal mill
tary service or selective conscrlp-
ton is the correct answer, l do not
know. The theory OF a common In
terest in a common country will be
satisfied by method of selecting SOL
diers that was not voluntary in char
acter."
The Secretary told the committee.
however. that since Congress had re-
jected the continental army plan In
favor of the National Guard system,
he believed the guard should be given
fair trial He inclined to the view
that regiments returning from the bor'
der would be- held together by the e1.
perience through which they had
passed, and that officers and men OF
the light sort would be inspired py
the knowledge they had gained to
work for greater efficiency. He did
not amplify his suggestion in regard
to selective conscription. 1t is known,
however. that he mas been studying
the question of the proper basis OF the
military service since the recommen'
dations Of the general staff for un4ver,
sal service legislation were submit
ted. 1t is understood the plan under
consideration contemplates the max
ing Of an inventory Of men In the
country, as Is being done with indus

MARINA WAS NOT IN
THE BRITISH SERVICE

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 19.-An-
nouncement was made at the state
department today that Great Britain
had furnished complete information
showing that the British horse ship
Marina, sunk without warning by a
German submarine with the loss Of
six Americans, was not at the time
and had not been before in British
public service. either by charter or
reQuisition.
The state department about ten
days ago sent TO Germany a state
ment of its belief that this was the
case. but has been awaiting full data.
promised in a preliminary British
statement. before making final state
ment to that effect.
Germany recently informed the
United States that one of her sub.
marine commanders sank the Marina,
believing her to be transport, not
entitled to the privileges of a private
merchantmen, and asked whether the
American government had informa-
tion to the contrary. Although the
evidence assembled has been for
warded there has been no formal reply
to the German note and probably will
be none for the present.
