democratic national committee. Ad-
ministration leaders we're so notified

Out Of the flood OF messages reaching
the White House today from the DEM
ocratic convention at st. Louis, those
Of most interest told OF the reception
Of his proposed plank condemning
citizens of foreign birth for political
activity in behalf Of their native land.
The president yesterday sent to con-
vention leaders q request that the
plank on Americanism include chal-
lenge to so-called hyphenates. He came
out strongly for such an attitude in his
flag day address yesterday. The pres
ident's wish is to pledge the democra-
tic party against any change in policy
on account of activity. Of those pro-
pagaAdists and thus virtually to
challenge the republican nominee to
take similar stand.
1t was believed here that Mr.. Nc
Cormick will be able to solidify the
party. The president looks upon him
as progressive and thoroughly in har-
mony with his ideas.
Mr. Mccormick. a native Of Harris-
burg, A years old, owns the HARRIS

Note of Carranza.

Note Of Carranza.
Washington, June 10. - Secretary
Lansing laid before President Wilson
today the completed draft Of a note
Ito General .Carranza replying to the
demand that American troops be with
drawn from Mexico. The president
and Mr.. Lansing conferred at length
"on the situation. 49,
Unless some new development forces
the situation the reply viii not be
sent until next week at the earliest
D. The president desires to deal with
the note in such fashion that action
can not be attributed to domestic poll
tics.
It is said the note fatty refuses to
withdraw American troops from
Mexico until the Carranza government
shows it's ability to police the border
properly. It makes sharp rejoinder to
the Mexican communication, which
officials regard as discourteous. IL
openly hinted that. President Wilson
had his eyes on the American polit-
cal convention in dealing with the sit
uation on the border. ~ r.
It Is understood that the declaration
will be so framed that the de facto
government have no doubt that the
United States regards It's request
wholly unnecessary.
Carranza will be told that failure
cooperate for the determination Of
bandits was due to the hostility and
suspicion exhibited by the Mexicans.
