Mexican Commissioner Says He Did

Nogales, Ariz, Oct. 31.--Louis Loos,
American, connected with the Nogales
Hardware company, was arrested by
department of justice officers in con-
nection with the alleged conspiracy to

Barnett be not executed until they had
gone to the bottom of the alleged con-

the Mexicans.
New York, Oct. 31.-Luis Cabrera,
chairman of the Mexican-American
Joint commission, said here that he did
not authorize the statement issued by
the Mexican news bureau in Washing
ton assailing American officials for al
legged laxity in dealing with anti-Car-
rama propaganda in districts along the
border. A representative of the Mex-
can news bureau conferred with the
Mexican members of the joint body in
Atlantic City recently, Mr.. Cabrera
added, and probably carried back with
him to Washington the impression that
the Mexican commissioners were of the
opinion that the United States should
adopt frmer attitude toward anti
Carranza propagandists.
Washington, Oct 31.-Luis Cabrera,
chairman of the Mexican commission
to the United States, made public a
scathing denunciation of the failure of
the United States to keep order along
the Mexican border.
Cabrera asserted, substantially,
among other things, that, although the
United States government has at it's
disposition sufficient laws to make it
possible to maintain order on the bor-
der, the government is not enforcing
these laws.
The Mexican commissioner asserted
that scores of conspirators are at work
along the border in plots menacing the
peace of the United States, and that
these conspirators are known.
