arrangements of this kind. the United
States would send a force into Me1i-
CO to cooperate with Carranza in put
ting down disorder. 1t was admitted
officially, however. that the State De
partment sees a number OF objections
TO this plan Principal among them, in
the departments view, is the necessity
of making the arrangement reciprocal,
SO that Mexican forces would be given
the privilege Of pursuing marsuders
across the border into the United
States.
The debate in the Senate began after
Senator Sherman had introduced his
resolution calling UPyn this Govern
ment to demand that Carrenza give
assurances to protect American life
and property and in the event Of Car
ranzas failure to furnish such protec-
tion, to intervene.
"A little time ago" said Senator Gal
linger. OF New Hampshire, the country
was thrown almost into convulsions from
the fact that a single American citizen
had lost his life through the torpedOing
OF a foreign ship and there was serious
talk that our government ought 10 seek
reparation for the life OF that citizen.
That number has been multiplied by
seventeen In Mexico. added to the hun
dreds Of others who have previously been
slaughtered in that unfortunate country.

Continue Scholastic Rule.

Practically all of the civic and pa
rents associations that have gone on
record against the proposed changes in
the local school system are expected to
voice their opposition before the school
subcommittee of the House District Com

ton are begun next Wednesday. An
nouncement Of the hearings was made
yesterday by Representative Lloyd chair
man of the subcommittee.
The decision to hold public hearings
on the proposed changes immediately

dent of the Board of Education, had
presented arguments against the pro-
posed changes at closed hearing before
the Page subcommittee of the House
Appropriations Committee yesterday aft
ernoon.
The impression which Mr.. Blair's testi.
mony made on the members of the sub
committee Is indicated by the views OF
Chairman Page. who is expected to &c
