CHAIRMAN STONE, OF FOR
EiGN RELATIONS COMMIT
TEE, CONFERS WITH PRES
iDENT WILSON.
10 LOOK TO CARRANZA
He Says 1t Would Be Monstrous
to Go to War With Mexico but
Thinks U. S. Should Look to
Carranza for Settlement.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-Chair-
man Stone of the senate foreign re-
lations committee conferred on the
Mexican situation early today with
, President Wilson. He said he was
gathering information Of the admin
istration's attitude with which to meet
attacks in the senate.
senator stone said after his con-
ference that he did not expect Amer-
can troops would be sent into Mexico
unless there were further develop
mcnts to force it. He considered that
the Villa element, enraged by the
recognition of Carranza, was deter
mined to attack Americans to force
intervention.
He plainly indicated that the ad-
ministration will look to Carranza to
control the situation and punish the
bandits.
Senator Stone said there was no
present intention OF calling a meeting
of the foreign relations committee to
consider the pending resolutions pro-
posing interference in Mexico. White
House officials indicated that the reso-
luton of Senator Lewis of Illinois, the
Democratic whip, authorizing the
president to use the armed forces, was
/ introduced without their knowledge.
at would be monstrous for the
United States to go to war in Mexico
at such a time as this" declared Sena
tor Stone after his return to the cap
ito!. Il was the original war man in
lied government recognized by this
! country. But now we have recognized
a government and it would be absurd
OF rush in without giving that govern
ment d chance to suppress and punish
the bandit bands that have murdered
American citizens.
1--WE know these bandits are seek
ing blood Of Americans for revenge.
| think that Americans who venture
into such places and Americans who
venture forth on belligerent ships into
war zones are committing a crime
against the government whose protec-
ton they seek Of course, we must
try 10 protect tnem. Iney nave d
technical legal right to go into such
dangerous places, but they should not
do it if possible to avoid it, and thus
embarrass the United States.
81 am not convinced that it will not
| be necessary to go into Mexico, but
this is an absurd time to talk of wal"
Gen. CarranZa's ambassador here
today suggested to his government
that all Americans in dangerous dis
tricts be compelled to come into gar.
risoned places where CarranZa troops
can protect them.
Secretary Lansing asked Mr.. Are
dondo to request Gen. CarranZa to
provide at once trains and guards TO:
the removal of Americans who wished
to leave endangered localities. Mr.
Aredondo forwarded the request with
his endorsement and his own sugges
ton that Americans in danger be
compelled to come into safety zone
even if it be necessary to force them

SECOND HALF OF
PLANT TO START
YARYAN FACTORY TO PUT 1T IN
OPERATION MIDDLE OF
NEXT WEEK.

Steam will be seen coming from the
;mokestacks OF the Yaryan Rosin and
Naval Stores company's mammoth
plant probably by the middle of next
week.
That's the good announcement just
made, which means that the plant Is
to be running in full blast, with an ad-
ditional number of men at work, both
IN the city and throughout the woods.
When the plant opened for opera
ion few weeks ago, as is well
known, only one half of it was fired
Up. For numerous reasons it was i'm
possible to operate the entire plant,
the main reason being that the wood
forces had not been sufficiently organ
lied to furnish all of the wood neces-
sary for the operation of the entire
plant, but during the past two weeks
while one half of the plant has been
in operation and all of the wood need
ed has been received, efforts have
been directed to the woods, and Mon
day extra shipments will be received
and probably by Wednesday the full
plant will be in operation.
During the three weeks that the
plant has been in operation hundreds
of barrels of rosin have been manu-
factured and many large sales have
been made. The prices have held ur
well, and the demand is more than
was anticipated The outlook is en-
couraging to all of those interested in
this mammoth industry. which is Civ
ing employment to many men, not only
in Brunswick, but throughout this en-
tire section.
