HEARST ASKS GOVERNOR
"STAY IN MEXICO, NOW
THAT WE'RE THERE?"

William r. Hearst, who owns an
immense ranch in Mexico and has
been pleading for Intervention through
his newspapers ever since the begin
ming of trouble there, is asking public
men throughout the country If the
troops now in Mexico should not stay
"and clean up the entire situation as
we did in Cuba and the Philippines.
Governor Pinkham received a cable
fgram from Hearst's New York Ameri.
can yesterday with this query, and
neatly evaded direct reply, failing
to commit himself in the manner that
was evidently desired The message
and his reply follow:
Now that United States troops
have entered Mexico should we not
remain and clean up the entire situa.
tion as we did In Cuba and the Phil
ippines? In your opinion what would
be the moral effect should the United
States cease its efforts to capture Vii.
la? Please answer at our expense"
The governors answer was:
The administration should be amp
ly and adequately and promptly sup
ported in its efforts for complete pre-
paredness, so that whatever attitude
1t assumes it may be assured of sue
cess from the start. consider the
administration Is best informed and
entitled to undivided support"
