tle President will continue to speak through I<itchn. cannot be foretold. t is a subject of speculation as to whether he takes the position of the Times to the effect that a pacifist cannot be trusted to frame war legislation, or whether he thinks Kitchin. war having been declared. capable of as great enthusiasm for his countrys welfare, as any other American.
 WEST MAKES DENIAL
 So denunciatory has become the generaI expression against the pacifsts of Con- gress, that the middle west which sup piled the bulk, is sending messages to Washington denying that the vote of it's representa- tives reflected the sentiment of their constituencies. Of the 50 negative votes in the House, 35 were cast by men who reside in states between the Rocky and Alleghany mountains. Wisconsin, alone. furnished nine. The south. a great empire within itself. furnished only five, although of this small number, Alabama gave two. Southerners who opposed the resolution were Almon and Burnett of Alabama, Kitchin of North Carolina, Dominick of South Carolina and McLe- more of Texas.
 Of the 50 pacifists votes. S2 were cast by republicans, opposing democrats num- bered 16 The other votes were cast by socialist and prombitionist.

 WATCHING MEXICO
 American officials continue to watch closely every move in Mexico, but little real anxiety remains. It is believed now that German machinations in that coun- try have failed and that the worst that may be expected is a declaration of neu- trality.
 Investigation by officers of the Amer can army showed the reports of Ger man reservists crossing from the United States into Mexico have been exagger- ated, and that the total number cross ing the Rio Grande since the breaking of relations with Germany up to 10 days ago was not more than 100

So long as Mexico's course is un- defined unusual interest is attached to the position of the Central American governments, especially that of Guate- mala, controlling the southern frontier of Mexico. In the event of the devel- opment of an unfriendly situation in Mexico, it is realized that Guatemala's role would be far from unimportant.
 Guatemala has built up what is re- garded as the most efficient army in Cen tral America, and with it they would be in position to lend valuable assistance to the United States. Antipathy be- tween the Guatamalans and the Mexicans there has existed for years.
 NICARAUGA MAY FOLLOW
 It is known that earnest efforts have been made by councillors of Cabrera to induce him to enter promptly into the Var. If he does place his country in the list it is expected that Nicaragua will folr~-v, and that the long standing diff hcailties between those two countries and Salvador and Honduras may be swept away in desire to present a united Gen. trad America.
 ODD SITUATION
 An odd situation would be left In the position of Costa Rica. There a new government has just been installed and has apparently no opportunity of recogni- ton by the United States. Federico Tinoco. who overthrow the government of Alfredo Gonzales in January, was elected President on April 1. Official notified ton of his election was received at the state department yesterday. The country is at peace, but prior to the elec- tion and immediately after the over throw of Gonzalez the United States
