and a quantity of what is believed to be
cocaine taken from him. His alleged
confederate submitted to arrest, but de-
MED that they knew each other, although
the inspectors saw them together.

FELIX DIAZ MAY HEAD
NEW REVOLUTION
United States Government Is Said to Be
Concerned Over Latest Develop
ments in Mexican Situation.

Washington, d. G., April 22.-While
immediate interest centers, naturally, in
the situation as to the troops in Mexico
there were renewed indications about the
state department that a wholly different
aspect of the problem was causing grow
ing concern. That is, the movement sup
posediy headed by Felix Diaz, nephew of
the former Mexican dictator, for a new
revolution against the de facto govern
ment None Of the information upon
which the uneasiness rests has been dis
closed. 1t is known, however, that sew
eral Mexicans in the United States are
being closely watched, and it seems pos
sible that some of the anti-American
feeling in Chihuahua states which has
met the troops pursuing Villa, may be
attributed to this movement.
TIE Diaz movement, it is said, has the
backing of various elements Of Mexicans.
both in Mexico and this country. As
viewed by the state department, it is
understood the activities of these per
sons are the more dangerous because
they are wealthy, while the de facto gov
ernment is involved in a snarl of fnan-
cial complications, which would be hard
to overcome even in times of complete
peace.
While no definite information was OBJ
tainable there were indications that
some Washington officials at least
thought it possible that the Diaz inter
ests were seeking TO undermine General
Carranza among his various commanders.
Should clear indications of this become
the attention OF General Car.
rama probably would be called to the
situation.
1t was pointed out at the war depart
ment that the portion of Chihuahua
where the pursuit of Villa has been in
has been doubtful territory at
best. Many of the so-called Carranza
garrisons are known to be wavering IN |
their allegiance.
Since no new revolution could be start !
ed in territory where American troops |
are operating, it is regarded as possible |
that recent events were the results, in |
part, at least, of deliberate effort to |
sreate conditions that would compel their
without irritating the
United States to a point where interven-
ion and military occupation of northern
Mexico might result.

Notes About Books and Authors

An interesting episode showing the
difficulty of maintaining neutrality is
recorded in the Memorandum Written
by William Rotch in the Eightieth Year
of His Age" recently published by
Houghton Miffiin Company. William
Rotch was Quaker and one of the
richest of the whale ship. owners of his
time. The policy of nonresistance on
the part of the Quakers led a majority
of the Nantucket owners who were of
that faith to preserve neutrality in the
war After the war, Mr.. Rotch won the
honor of first sending the flag into an

THE WNI. PENN HIGHWAY

MO association or organization is
IN doing more to create substantial
sentiment for the Improvement
of the highways of Pennsylvania than
the William Penn Highway Associa-
tion. This organization is full of gin
ger and it's work is of the most pro-
ductive character.
Through its impulse and activity,
several thousand men and women
gathered for the dedication of the fine
stretch of the New York division of
the highway between Easton and
Bethlehem this week. Such an en-
thusiastic assemblage of people in the
interest of good roads would have been
impossible a few years ago. Every
where the sentiment for the improve
ment Of highways is increasing by
leaps and bounds. Communication be-
tween rural communities and towns
and cities has become so important
as a partial solution to the high cost
of living that opposition to the i'm
provement OF roads has practically dis
appeared.
1t is the purpose of Governor Brum-
baugh and those who favor better
roads to ask the Legislature for an
appropriation of five millions for con-
struction purposes and the use of the
automobile license fund for mainte-
nance. This is a reasonable program
and ought to go through without any
dissent at the approaching session.

=. S.-WILSON

.NUR postscript President is finding
" out in these closing days of the
campaign that the American
people are not quite so Indifferent to
their country's reputation as he had
ina gined. The story that Mr.. Wilson
accompanied his "strict accountability
note on the Lusitania with a postscript
TO the effect that the note was not to
be taken literally will not down, in
spite of the evasive statements of GER
tain Democrats who are more or less
familiar with the circumstances.
Ex-Secretary of War Garrison is
quoted to prove that President Wilson
upheld separate note to mollify Ger
many and only recalled the postscript
after repeated protests by Garrison
and others. Senator Lodge is not the
sort of man to indulge in campaign
Misrepresentation and the fact that the
letters from reputable people sustain
ing the postscript charge have been
confirmed by other evidence places the
burden of proof that no such thing
occurred upon President Wilson and
his apologists.
1t is certain, however, that the
people have at last become aroused to
the double dealing and hypocrisy
which have characterized the present
administration. Shifting and insincere
at every turn, the President is at last
confronted with unmistakable evidence
of his own weakness and insincerity.
| His whole course has been marked hv
temporizing and expediency based
upon a personal ambition which con-
siders neither the honor nor the well
fare of the country.
| A thoughtful people are going to
determine next Tuesday the question
of a further continuance of this sort
of administration. What has been
mistaken for apathy in the campaign
will doubtless prove to have been a
thoughtful consideration of all the
matters involved in remarkable po-
ilitical contest.

Outlook Increases Price

The necessity for change in price is
due to the increase in the cost of pub
lication, due in turn to the great ad-
vance in the price of paper. One of
the effects of the European war most
severely felt on this side of the At
lantic Is that higher price of paper of
all kinds. but particularly of the paper
used by books, newspapers. and peri
odicals In the manufacturing cost of
producing The Outlook the paper bill
is much the largest single item. Nat
urally, therefore, an increase of over
Fifty Per Cent in the cost of paper
means a very material increase in the
total cost of production. The more
that a periodical has been giving for
value received, the more seriously
does this increase in cost affect it.
In the case of The Outlook there
are only two conceivable ways of
meeting this increased cost amount
ing to many thousands of dollars.
One way is to give poorer quality.
This we will not do. The other is to
increase the price: and becauses this
is the only alternative. we choose it.
The outlook.
