Washington Grows Impatisat at Delay
Of MEXICO City.
BREAK APPEARS UNAVOIDABLE
No Change in Policy Toward Mexico
Contemplated by Wilson, Offer
to Protect Border Likely.

Washington, d. C.-While admins
tration officials manifested impatience
Saturday over the delay of the Car
rama government in replying to the
American demand for an explanation
of its purposes, private advices from
Mexico City indicated that a defiant
answer was being prepared there.
The State department has had no di-
rect information as to when the Mexi-
can response would be sent or how it
would be transmitted. Secretary Lam
sing called this fact to the attention
of Eliseo Arredondo, Mexican ambas-
sador designate, during the day and in
Dictated that he did not understand the
delay, in view of the statement in the
American note of last Saturday that
an early answer was expected.
Mr.. Arredondo. who had called to
announce formally the release of the
Carrizal prisoners, said he had not
heard from his government on the sub
ject.
The private messages, sent by per-
sons in position to speak with some
authority as to General Carranza's at
titude, expressed the conviction that 9
break between the two governments
was unavoidable. There appeared tc
be complete agreement among mem
bers of the Mexican cabinet, it was in
dictated, that orders to General Trevinc
to attack American troops moving ir
any direction except toward the Dor.
der be reaffirmed. Some de facto off.
Gals wished to go further and couple
with this statement in the Mexican
reply defiant demand that American
troops be withdrawn Immediately from
Mexican soil.
Intimation have reached officials
here that the de facto government may
give strong assurances in its note tina
border raids will be prevented by
strong patrol of Mexican troops, if thu
United States will withdraw its forces
1t was said at the Mexican embass.
that so, 900 Carranza troops are nov
available for border patrol duty.
The cabinet had no official advice
in any way changing the situation
when it assembled at regular meet
ing. The crisis was discussed an
later it was stated that no change i
policy was contemplated.

Under the new Farm Loan act,
which is a law and will shortly be in
operation throughout the country.
the farmer who owns land which he
wants to make more productive, or
who wants to add another bit Of
land to his farm. or who wants to
buy modern equipment, may go to a
Federal Land bank Through a local
Farm Loan association and ask foI
loan.
Suppose it is for $1,000. lie car
easily show that his farm is worth
5000 or more. He gets the loan at
; per cent, because the land bank is
able to sell bonds based on his and
similar loans for 4 per cent. He
signs an agreement to repay 1t in
twenty years. What are his obliga-
tions?
First, he must subscribe TO stock
in the Farm Loan association to the
cNtcnt Of at least per cent Of the
amount OF his loan. SO. instead OF
getting $1,000, he gets $3.50; but his
stock ought always to be worth $50
and will share in whatever earnings
the association makes.
Beginning a year from the date OF
his loan. the farmer will have to pay
each year for twenty years the sum
oi $SO.24. OF that first years pay.
ment $50 will represent interest or
the loan, and $30.24 will be deducted
from the principal sum due. The rel
ativc proportions paid for interest
and toward the reduction of the prin
cipal will change from year to yeal
until the final $SO24 will go-$3.S3 tC
