Senator Declares Time
For "Watchful Waiting"
in Mexico Is Past
BY Associated Press

washington, d. c., Jan. 12. .-A AL
though the Introduction OF Senator
Sherman's resolution In the Senate
passed without debate the speech
making broke out later when Senator
Gallinger the Republican leader, de-
clared the time for watchful waiting
had passed and that the United States
now must take some steps to protect
the lives of Americans in Mexico.
Chairman Stone OF the Foreign
Relations Committee, declared he
was in sympathy with the general
idea expressed by Senator Galliger.
Every one will agree" said Sena-
tor Stone, that some kind of punish
ment will be meted out to the
assassins who committed this crime.
The senator from New Hampshire
says he thinks the time has come
when some permanent step should be
taken to protect the lives of Amer
leans in Mexico. Would the Senator
object to informing the Senate and
the country just what he thinks our
government should do?"
My record during this controversy
will show, returned Senator Galliger,
that l have carefully refrained from
critlcizing the government or from
making special pleas to protect life
and property in Mexico have
realized the difficulty confronting the
administration and have no disposi-
tlon to embarrass it simply because il
is not of my own party. But here is
very serious matter confronting us.
we are told that II American
citizens are stripped naked and stood
up and shot. A little while ago the
country was shocked almost into con-
vulsions by the fact that one Amer

talk of demanding reparation.
That death has been multiplied
seventeen times. If l were President |
would demand protection for Ameri-
can citizens of Mr.. Carranza and If he
were unable to give it / would ask
congress what my further duty was"
Senator Borah took the floor. dis
claiming as did Senator Gallinger that
he spoke for his party.
There is no reason at this time why
the American people should not let
the sentiment on this question be
known" he declared. THE Mexican
people expected to see this country, in
harmony with its tradition, enter upon
an aggressive policy for the protec-
ton of American citizens. They brac-
ed themselves against that attitude.
But, Mr.. President, then began side
obtppiHSs pl
un-American policy. that is not end
ed yet.
To-day we are told seventeen
citizens have been shot to death.
Fortunately il was impossible to
smother this incident. 1t is only part
of the story, for much of what has
happened south Of the border has
been smothered.
"If the lid was just taken off at the
State Department and the Americans
could see the reports of the Brazilian
minister on the killing of American
citizens and the insult to the Amer
lean flag, it would not take them long
to decide what they wanted to do.
Shall we wait longer? For one. 1

cans of Carranza and if he did not
give assurance of protection in way

FULLY EXPLAINED
Ex-Justice Gardner Gives the
Court Definition in
Two Words
Late this afternoon the jury re-
turned verdict of guilty against


turned verdict of guilty against
Woltz.
Two words were all that ex-Justice
of the Peace T. V. Gardner. Steelton.
needed to-day to fully explain TO a
when Maurice Woltz, youthful gun
man." poked a loaded revolver to
within O. few inches of his stomach.
December 8. 1915, all Steelton was
agttated when Woltz and Gardner par
ticipated in a running gun fight" on
the streets of the West Side.
Woltz, Ii appeared, came here from
Lebanon to warn former chum to
keep away from Mrs. WoltZ." The
story of the fight that followed, of
Woltz's display of firearms, of the
chase through the West Side streets
with Gardner in the lead of the pre-
mature posse. is month-old news
paper story.
Woltz Makes Suggestion
Gardner on the stand to-day ex-
planned his own part in the fray. He
spied WoltZ standing on the street
with loaded revolver and grabbed for
the gun. Wolt2 turned to run and
bumped Gardner into the street. As
the former magistrate lay in the high
way Woltz fired twice at him; then
he stepped over to the fallen man,
poked the gun within a few inches of
his stomach and distinctly said:
Now, you dig! Dig"
Gardner didn't need to explain that
he fully understood dig to mean the
making of hasty exit from the scene;
District Attorney Stroup. the court and
the jury seemed to understand per-
fectlY, too. What did you do?" de-
manded the district attorney. Where
upon Gardner gave the briefest ex-
planation ever made.
Gardner Dug
81 dug" said he.
When WoltZ was finally lodged in
the borough lookup he kicked up
some more. Gardner explained. The
prisoner had to be beaten before he
could be subdued. Even then he tried
TO get out of a cell. Gardner had to
threaten him with shovel, where
upon Woltz bitterly invited" the
magistrate ito take off his coat and
settle it like a man."
We'll, what did you do?" persisted
the district attorney.
Il declined the invitation" promptly
replied Gardner.
The case was given to the jury just
before court adjourned for the noon
recess.
