Americas Mailed Fist.

EAulSAANtb . NLd4ACu L Aobs
Washington, June 19.-Amerca s
mailed fist confrouts the Carranza gov
enment today. Orders for practically
all state militia service, backed by dis
patch of more fighting ships and trans
ports, constitutes the threat. 1t is the
administration last trump card to
quiet troublesome situation. If this
last trump doesn I take the trick, Of
ficials fear war will follow.
Some administration officials today
frankly admitted a fear that dispatch
of 100000 more men to the border may
cause some of the more reckless of Car
rama commanders to commit an act
that could have only one result.
Officials seemed certain the mailed
fist will have the desired effect They
believed, though, that the United States
will be thoroughly prepared by the
latest step for anything that develops
below the boundary.
Calling the militia does not now
mean intervention. The policy is still
to keep General Pershing's column
where it is and TO strengthen the border
patrol so much as to end the recent out
burst of banditry.
The most disturbing thing in a mass
of perplexing rumors and facts was the
report that Caranza had sent an ulti-
matum, demanding American troop
withdrawal within a week.
Carranza Is Powerless.
Behind the militia call last night Of
ficials admitted that the Carranza gov
eminent is growing gradually weaker
with consequent possibility Of trouble
between that regime and the United
States.
The big underlying thing is the econ
omic situation. 1t is extremely bad,
according to official reports. This re
acts for trouble by creating chaotic
condition and by stimulating banditTy
among men whose only sustenance seems
to lie in loot.
The militia call, officials hoped may
cause Carranza to make extreme efforts
to hold his men in check But these
same officials admitted a fear that the
call may fan the Mexican populace
into such indignant anti-Americanism
that a break cannot be avertcd Certain
" in some Mexican quarters, the news

Enter, Spanish Girl.
There is a lively little Spanish
girl, and that's where the love
story begins. The Meier DO
Well" proves that, whatever his
other failings may be, he cap
make love. He does IL SO we'll
that he takes the little girl right
off and marries her in the face
of hot protests from her dad and
hot-headed Spanish suitor. Z
How it all ends-well it's left
for Kathlyn Williams, and the
other star characters to put the
finishing touches on the adven-
lures.
At least ii is certain at the end
of the reel that the Meier Do
Well' has done tolerably we'll UNI
der the circumstances, consider
ing that the husband of the wife
he kissed has shot himself and
that he is Jailed FOR murder. :
And by no means the least at
fractions of the whole affair are
real pictures of the Panama canal.
