these ships. Eight months have gone
Nv since the Falaba and later the Lusi-
tania were sunk. Ship after ship has
been sunk, until the total Of lives lost

has done nothing except to write notes,
each being followed by a fresh out

at is worth willis calling attention
20 the State Departments assertion to-
day that il had warned Americans TO
keep out Of Mexico. In this respect
President Wilson is copying the ex-
emple of Ambassador Bernstorf when
he warned the Americans 10 keep of
the Lusitania, which warning was fol-
lowed by murder. But II is at least 70
be said Of the German Ambassador that
the murders Of which he gave warning
were of citizens of foreign land. In
President Wilson'S case the warning
was followed by murder o. citizens or

Eve did nothing when our citizens
were murdered on the high seas by
Germany Apparently We intend 70 do
nothing about the citizens that have
been murdered by Mexico-and remem-
Der that President Wilson had recog-

nevertheless, he so distrusted that he
warned our citizens that at the peril
of their lives they must not stay IN

Meanwhile. for three years our
army and navy have deteriorated, and
BRYAN. Kitehin. Hay and the other

bent on rivalling one another as to

President Wilson is himself personally

eighteen months since the great war
began not one step in preparedness has
been taken.

have earned the contemptuous dislike

cur duty in Mexico one or all Of them

MEXICAN MASSACRE
PUT UP TO WILSON
Administration, COlOnists Say,
Allowed Rosy Reports to
Lure Victims to Death.

Blame for the massacre ~ seventeen
Americans in Mexico last Monday was
put squsrely up to President Wilson
yesterday by two colonists, Who ad-
dressed the National Special Aid Socie-
~, an organization OF women, Of 597
Fifth Avenue. and who spoke under as
sumcd names TO protect their families
from Carranza. Ono Of them "W. n.

hua. with a wife and children living
fifty miles from the scene Of the mas
sacre. The other" Michael {. Smith"
is resident Of Tampico.
an FL Paso three weeks ago I shook
hands with every one Of the men who
were killed" ssid Brown. "Misled By
rosy reports which the Administration
az Washington has allowed to come
from this part Of Mexico, they all went
into the state. The responsibility for
tho awful butchery that followed rests
at the door of President Wilson.
Both Taft and Wilson made the mis-
take OF thinking they had TO deal with
civilized country. In Mexico to-day
there are 10000 men under arms. al
though the country is officially at peace
and Carranza Is supposed TO be supreme.
Secretary Lansing's message merely
throws dust in the eyes OF the Ameri-
can people. CarranZa is pOwerless to
restore order or 10 make reparation for
the lives of United State citizens.
There is only one remedy If Ameri-
cans are 10 be saved, and that Is inter-
vention."
According to Smith, the Wilson ad-
ministration has repeatedly turned
away delegations OF American settlers,
although in most cases they were per-
mitted 20 see Secretary Bryan.
Unfortunately, however, Mr.. Bryan
did all the talking at these audiences
said Smith, land We never had chance
10 get word in. At the end he would
usually ask us il we had interests in
Mexico, and when we admitted 1t he
would say. Well, gentlemen, you are
prejudiced.'
Like Brown. Smith declared the only
remedy was in Intervention. and SAID
that Carranza was in control OF only
half the country.
The National Special Aid Society,
which is affiliated with the National Sc
curity League, will send delegation
of eleven women to the leagues con-
qress in Washington on January 20.

Points to Warning.

In regard to the warning re terateo
by the Secretary, il was SAID that the
State Department would not point out
~ this time what parts of Mexico were
considered safe and what parts were
considered unsafe. Il WAS the antici-
nation Of Just what happened IN Chi
huahus. IL was said, that prompted the
warning issued soon after the recog-
milton Of Carrsnza. Secretary Lansing
considers that the Carranzs authorities
should have warned Americans 10 stay
out of territory which they considered
dangerous.
Mr.. Arredondo's statement that Amerl-
cans had been warned TO keep out OF
dangerous districts was made IN the
corridors OF the State Department at
The conclusion of his conference with

POLICE ARREST MAN WHO
LOOKS LIKE FAMOUS

If every man the Atlanta police
were asked to find had a resemb-
lance as we'll as Charlie Chaplin,
it would be easy pickings for the
Gate City Sleuths and bad bust
ness for the fugitives.
1t was little black mustache,

B. Sanders, aged 81 years, of Chi
cago, behind the bars in this city
on a charge of heading an organi-
zed band of automobile thieves
who have been operating in cities
over the country.
When the police were told that
Sanders looked like Charlie Chap
lin, and that he was fond of read
ing good literature in public Ii
braries, they had a regular cinch.
A couple of men watched the Car
regie Library, saw second edi-
ton of the famous movie come
dian enter the reading room and
nabbed him.
