New York, July 1.-THE subject of
military training in the public schools,
which has been engrossing the dele
gates to the annual convention of the
National Education association was
held in allegiance here as far off,
cial action was concerned. The con-
vention will hear the report of the
committee on resolutions tomorrow.
The question was touched upon, how
ever, today by DR.. Woods Hutchinson
in an address before the department
of child hygiene.
Military training for school chill

emancipation that we have been wait

Would RehabIIitate Mexico.

Washington, July 7.-Out of the
Forthcoming negotiations between the
United States and Mexico may arise
plan for rehabilitating Mexico, it
was indicated here. Secretary Lansing
frankly admitted this government is
giving serious consideration to the
basic conditions of Mexico's threatened
disintegration through unstable cur
rency system and other economic ele-
ments. Thus far the United States
government has not invited American
bankers to loan money to Mexico. Be-
fore it takes such steps, this govern
ment must be satisfied that Carranza
is in a position to stabalize so that a
loan would be attractive to American
financial interests it was stated. The
impression left by Lansing was that
the United States is now willing to en-
courage aid for Mexico if Carranza
demonstrates a friendly spirit and
ability to control Mexican affairs.

AFRAID OF MEXICANS

Hamilton county officials have ap-

Syracuse Mexicans who have recently
purchased guns and ammunition. A
letter to the governor from the Hamii-

Mexicans have made threats of vio-

der the present policy.
In his letter to the governor. the
county attorney asks aid from the
state in enforcement of a policy that
will disarm the Mexicans. Ammuni-

preparing for trouble
