These coins hitherto have been made

In effect the latest note proposes that
the clock he turned back to the time immc-
diatcly following the columbus raid and
iwhen negotiations were afoot for the
passage of American troops into Mex
leo in pursuit of the raiders. Conditions
have changed since then, however, CEN
cral Carranza having assembled consid-
CRADLE army in northern Mexico and the
United States having called the entire ma
tional guard to the line for palrol duty.

the new negotiation.

operative plan of action had been agreed
upon with the Mexican government and

no doubt as to it's practicability. In

tion must preCcde withdrawal of Genera
PershinG's forces is not clear.
Officials believe that the call for tn,
national guard and the actual dispatch
of the troops to the border was th'
impelling influence which induced Gen
eral CarranZa to abandon the hostile at
utude taken in his previous notes. The,
say the United States holds stron;
argument in favor of peaceful solution
of border difficulties as long as it main
tains an army near the line and ther
seems little probability that they vii
withdraw until danger has passed.

OPPOSE MEASURE

Washing ton, Nov. 22.-Chairman
fitzgerald of the House appropria-

intended to prepare bill providing
for an embargo of foodstuffs and
push it early in the coming session
or Congress. He declared an en-
barge would be the most effective
weapon in the controversy with
Great Britain over the trade black
list and do more than months of dip
lomatic negotiations. He declared
an embargo should also be imposed
for purely domestic reasons as food
prices have reached levels where
they are causing widespread dis
tress 1t is understood that Presi-
dent Wilson and his Cabinet will op-
pose such legislation.
