TRUE iNWARDkESS OF THE
VERA CRUZ INCIDENT.

In the Spring OF 1914, occur
red the capture OF Vera Cruz.
Men from one OF our ships had
been arrested at Tampico and
had been discharged with an
apology But our Admiral de-
manGed a salute, which was re.
fused. Thereupon the President
went to Congress, asking au
tnority 10 use the armed forces
OF the United States Without
waiting for the passage OF the
resolution, Vera Cruz was seiz-
ed. 1t appeared that a shipload
of ammunition for Huerta was
about to enter that port. There
was q natural opposition to this
invasion and a battle occurred
In which nineteen Americans
and over a hundred MeXicans
were killed. This, OF course,
was war. Our dead soldiers
were praised for dying like
heroes in a war Of service.
Later. we retired from Vera
Cruz, giving up this noble war
fare. We had not obtained the
salute which was demanded.
We had not obtained repara-
ton for affronts The ship with
ammunition which could not
land at Vera Cruz had soon
landed at another port, and its
cargo was delivered to Huerta
without interference. Recently
the naked truth was admitted

now Informed that I'VE did not

to salute the fiag." We are
told that We went there ito

salute was mere pretext.-
