Democrats Put Blame for Car.
RIAL Massacre on Dead and
/ DefenSeleSS Boyd.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 23-The
most important development at the
conference now in progress at New
London, Conn, between representa-
uves OF President Wilson and Of First
Chief Carranza is the overweening
desire expressed by the Mexican COM
missioners that the people OF the
United States shnll return Mr.. Wilson
TO another four years in the White
House. The clean sweep by the Re
publicans In the recent election in
Maine upset the Mexican commission
ers almost as much as the Democrats.
They naiyely confessed their alarm
over the state of Mr.. Wilson's candi-
dacy and their fear that after March
4 next they will be compelled to deal
with Mr.. Hughes and a Republican
administration.
Speak for CarTanzn.
Tho Mexican commissioners, speak
ing in behalf OF First Chief Carranza.
desire II known that they unanimously
favor the reelection OF Mr.. Wilson
They make II clear that Mr.. Wilson
would carry every precinct controlled
by CarranZa if he were running in
Mexico for presldent-of Mexico?-
bless you, motor president of tho
United States.
Just why Carranza and his commits
sloners are out with campaign in
dorsement of the president is not di-
vulged. or course, 1t cannot be be.
cause Mr.. Wilson brought about
recognition OF Carranza or becausue
Mr.. Wilson evacuated Vera Cruz at
the behest OF Carranza, or because
Mr.. Wilson backed down after the
Carrizal massacre and obeyed the
Carranza decree not to move the Per-
ehing expedition east. west, or south.
OF course, 1t cannot be because Mr..
Wilson ordered all Americans out of
Mexico and is Keeping them out,
while Mexlcans occupy and loot their
properties. or because Mr.. Wilson
has held no one to strict accounta-
bility" for the Americans killed in
mexico. Then why is Il?
Frame NindlCation?
In view OF Mr.. Carranza's personal
Interest in the reelection of Mr.. Will
son the Democratic leaders are con-
fident that the Mexican commission
ers and the American commissioners
viii frame an agreement purporting
to be n settlement Of tho Mexican
problem which may be heralded az
vindication OF the presidents policy
In the closing days of the campaign.

ognized as a military necessity: yet
the White House forbade Funston s
use of either road or any part of it.
because Carranza demanded the pro-
hibition. Partly as a result the pur-
suit was delayed week. and in that
week Villa had gone far to the
south.
When 1t wa stoo late Carranza al
lowed the Americans to use one OF
the roads to this extent: They could
ship over 1t food and folders con-
signed to a resident of any interior
point, and pay for it what the rail-
road charged. They could not ship
arms or ammunition. In other words.
the Americans were given the right
which any citizen of any nation had
and this was spoken Of by the adj
ministration as a material concession
wrung from Carranza.
At Parral the American detach-
ment was close on Villas heels. It
was shared into a trap by the Car
rama authorities and fired on by
Carranza soldiers, with fatal results.
And again Washington refused to let
General Funston take any action.

- international News Service:
WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-Deciar-
ing that the criticism directed by
Charles Evans Hughes, against the
administrations Mexican policy grew
out Of ignorance Of the true policy
of Pres't wilson" Rep. =. p. Har-
rison. of Mississippi, today delivered
speech defending the presidents
course in Mehico, on the floor Of the

that stand taken by Candidate
Hughes on the Mexican question was
prompted by Sen. Fail, of New Mex
leo and Henry Lane Wilson. the
discredited ambassador TO Mexico.
The statements made as 10 Mexico
by Hughes in his acceptance speech
were characterized as misleading"
by the Missippian, who is the ad-
ministratiOn's representative on the
foreign affairs committee.
Must BE Out of Touch.
When / recall the almost super
human degree of patience which
Pres't Wilson has shown in our
whole Mexican policy" said Rep.
Harrison, when ] contemplate how
at times his irmness almost drove
us 10 actual war. and when / recall
the lack OF criticism of his policy by
the republican party during all this
time. L naturally conclude that the
republican nominee in his acceptance
speech. either is not in accord with
his party on this question or that he
has allowed himself to be misled by
certain advisers who are out of sym
patty with the American people and
whose views touching Mexican af-
fairs are forced by their own desire
TO obtain from the American people
an approval OF their outrageous and
shameful past conduct"
Rep. Harrison then pointed out
that Sen. Fall and former Ambas-
sador Wilson had been called upon
by Hughes 10 submit their views on
the Mexican situation.
Divorced from COmmOnaIity.
IF there is any place in the pub
lie service which divorces "a man
from the common touch Of man
kind. il is the supreme court bench.

justly criticized for his failure TO be
informed about current events. in

Rep. Harrison characterized the
Hughes acceptance speech as a

He took up three specific points at
tackled by Hughes. the refusal TO
recognize Huerta. the handling Of
the embargo on arms and munitions.
and the failure 20 intervene He
said that the Hughes criticism of
these force the conclusion that the
republican candidate would have
recognized Huerta. and would have
forced intervention.
