ders pertaining to Mexico now in the
hands of the State Department This
is a gigantic task. and as soon as pos
sible start will be made on the work.
The files of the division will be ran
sacked. and it is difficult to estimate
the amount of data that will be sent to
the Senate in response TO the resolu-
ton.
Some idea of the importance of this
new division can be gained from the
knowledge that in the past two years
the work of the State Department has
increased nearly 400 per cent. and not
the least of the causes of this great
increase was Mexico
When Secretary of State Lansing Gre
ated the division of Mexican affairs
he placed at the head of the division
a man named Leon ]. Canova, who had
travelled in Mexico for the State De-
partment for many months and was
intimately familiar with actual condi-
lions below the border. Furthermore.
Canova had served for several years
in the old Latin American division of
the State Department and was or less
of an expert on things Mexican. In
addition he had served the government
of Cuba for approximately four years
In January of last year Canova was
given a post in the division of Latin
American affairs of the State Depart
ment, and in his service there he be-
came familiar with the office" end Of
Mexican affairs. He was acting chief
of the Latin American division when
he was given the post of chief of Mex
lean affairs.
Canova's right hand man and assist
ant is Richard c. Tanis, Passaic, N
j., man, who came to the State Depart
ment from the Post Office Department
in 1910 AS soon as he became famil-
lar with the department, via the bu
reau of indexes. he went to the Latin
American division. where he served
under three chiefs and might have been
there yet had not Canova needed him in
Mexican affairs. Tanis. from his desk
in the Latin American division watched
every move of the great Mexican traE-
edy from the time Diaz was toppled
from his throne until Carranza had
prepared himself for recognition.

from the terminus at Fairbanks, from

news began to reach the State Depart
ment in the form of bulletins from con-
sular representatives. the War Depart
ment and other channels of govern
mental information.
From 9 O'Clock the morning of the
raid until way into the night this bu-
reau toiled away hour after hour, isSu-
ing instructions to American consuls in
Mexico. formulating orders of the Sec
rotary of State, answering questions of
every kind and description touching on
the Columbus affair and otherwise pro-
viding for the safety of Americans who
might be in Villas path.
For days and nights this work con-
tinued and only after the complete task
had been handled. the details all gath
cred and the issue slightly cooled could
these men hope for a brief respite from
their labors. But the plan for the
army's determination of Villa and his
army is opening up new lines of work
every hour, and from now until some
date far in the future the Mexican af-
fairs division will be one of the most
sensitive nerve centers of the American
diplomatic organism. For the Mexican
affairs division, at least. 1t is not alto
gether picnic when something
breaks" along the Rio Grande or to
the south.
Shortly after Secretary Lansing sue
ceeded to the post left vacant by Will
liam Jennings Bryan he realized that
Mexican affairs. which had been pass
ing through the Latin American d.
vision. were growing to such proper
tions that the Latin American division
was becoming more and more crowded.
There was need of a greater force In
the Latin American division. but an in
crease in the clerical force would not
altogether adjust the difficulty.
Leon J. Canova, the present chief of
the Mexican division, was well ac-
quainted with Mexican affairs. but his
work along strictly Mexican lines was
