being on a par with the Mexican
bandits, who raped defenseless
women and pillaged churches.

Mr.. Wilson and his Mexican
policy of ''watchful waiting'' is
being confronted with additional
perplexing situations. A new
bunch of bandits have started
out for rapine and pillage and
are threatening Carranza with
annihilation even before his COM
missioners can conclude their
boundary treaty with Mr.. Will
sons commissioners. With new
bandits in the game the outrages
on womanhood will increase, but
Mr.. Wilson will have no ear for
the despairing cry of the nuns
and sisters of mercy, because he
is more interested in the NUM-
tion trade with England, and it
keeps him busy trying to save
his face from the insulting notes
he is almost daily handed by the
prime minister. England en-
dorses Wilson's attitude of being
too proud to fight" and they
are rubbing his nose in it at ev-
cry turn. The United States is
indeed humiliated.
