By ROBERT F. WILSON.

Washington, March 10.-Somc
months ago Vice President Marshall
said that there are in this country
many thousands Of educated, ambi-
tious young men who are without
opportunity to employ their talents
as they should. The reason is, he
said, that this country is now produc-
ing educated, ambitious, young men
faster than it is producing opportuni-
ties. ".
These young men will find their op.
portunities in Mexico, according to
Congressman William II. Murray Of
Oklahoma-"Alfalfa Bill' Murray,
who is not only one of the most pic
-turesque figures in congress but is
rapidly becoming one of its real lead
ers through the power of his intellect.
Mr.. Murray predicts that the oppor-
tunilies of Mexico are likely TO be
thrown open to Americans within the
next year; that American interyen-
ton is likely to become a fact before
another tWelye-mOnth passes.
"The only. reason there is not fight
ing in Mexico now is because north
ern Mexico is having the. worst win
ter known in years., said alfalfa

is an interesting coincidence. His en-

Africa he would 60 10 Mexico. 1t is
one of the earth's richest storehous'

Americans would flock into the coun-
try by the hundreds. Of thousands.
They would make the country even
more glorious than our own Pacific
coast. 1t would blossom like a rose,
and life in this country would receive
a sudden thrill OF new ambition as
these fresh opportunities unrolled
themselves in their magnillcence be-
fore our young men OF ability.
What Mexico needs is some des-
potic form Of government which eX'

such a government as would be given
by American military commanders.

And mind you, no great amount

When we had the country policed,
then we would offer amnesty. Our
troops would pursue those who re-

do you think the Americans
would ever leave?"
"Of course" replied Murray, "as
good Democrats we would have the
intention Of Intervening solely to re-
store order and with the expectation
Of ,>leaving when our, task was over.
But the task would require several
years-at least, it would be that long
before we would trust the Mexicans

time the influence of the million

LANSING DECLINES
 MEDIATION OFFER WAR PREPARATIONS COON Secretary of State Makes it Clear That Mexican Situation Cannot
 Be Arbitrated.

| Washington, June 27.-Eforts to. ward atin-American meditation in the Mexican crisis favored by Car ranza officials collapsed without hay ing reached the stage of a formal proposal to the United States.
 It was made plain by Secretary Lansing to Ignacio Calderon, minister of Bolivia, who called with intention of asking whether the United States would entertain an offer of the ser vices of it's southern neighbors to aid in avoiding war that the Washington government sees nothing in the situa- tion that would warrant arbitration proceedings.
 Mr. Lansing talked with the min ister for half an hour and is under stood to have told him that the blame for the grave outlook rested entirely on General Carranza. The attitude of the United States was so fully outlined that MT. Calderon did not mention directly the original purpose of his visit.
 When the minister left the state department he said the time seemed lnoppOrtune" and that for the pres ent the diplomatic representatives of six Central and South American coun- tries, who had approached the Mexi- can embassy on the subject of media ton and received assurances that the Carranza government was favorable to the principle, would not tender their good offices to the United States. lie indicated that the attempt to ar range mediation might be renewed if General Carranza's reply to Secretary Lanslng's last note furnished any basis on which the proposal could be founded. The United States now is awaiting for Carranza's final word in reply to the not sent Sunday demand ing release of the prisoners taken at Carrizal and a formal diplomatic an nouncement of intentions.
 The note reached Mexico City late Sunday night. Special Agent Rodgers reported it's receipt, adding that he had failed in his first effort to place 1t in the hands of the Carranza min lster of foreign relations. Undoubt- edly it~was delivered today. Officials looked for an answer within a day or two at the most.
 Meanwhile both congress and the war department put new urgency into their preparations for war. There were indications that should formal break occur toward the end of the week every possible precautionary step will have been taken and Cen eral Funston will be in a position to defend the border adequately and rein force Pershing's expedition al though aggressive action may be de- layed somewhat.
