peace to presume no domination over
other nations, no seizure of their ma
tional property nor any forced usar-
nation of foreign territory; peace
with no annexation or contributions
based upon the free determination
by each nation of its destinies.
Being fully convinced that the es-
Establishment of democratic principles

ANXIOUS TO FIGHT
Meyicnns Present Themselves at

Mexico City, June 22.-That the
sentiment among many of the MeXi-
can people is in. favor of the United
States in the war with Germany,
was made manifest yesterday after
noon when large number of Mexi-
can citizens presented themselves at
the American Embassy asking that
thew be. enrolled in the American
army for the. fighting on European
fronts.
:: 81 Universal, the most prominent
newspaper in Mexico, yesterday
printed statements from twenty
three prominent civilians Of Mexico
advocating severance by Mexico of
relations with Germany, and assert
ing that Mexico's place in the war
Is on the side of the entente allies.
Headlines of the article In which
the statements are incorporated say
it is to the interest of Mexico to
sever relations with Germany, and
that the Latin-American ideals of
Mexico must incline her to the side
of the allies rather than toward
ideals of pan-Germanism, absorp-
ton and militarism, as expressed by
Germany.
The statements show close unanfn-
ity of opinion. Some go so far as to
say that to uphold the ideals Of Jus
tice which actuate Mexico the coun-

on Germany.
Others assert that German IN
tfigues in Mexico offer ample rea-
sons for severing diplomatic reia-
tons, adding that Germany Is en-
deavoring to provoke trouble be-
tween Mexico and the United States.
Some of the statements say Ger
many cannot deceive Mexico by Of
fers of money and land and loans,
nor by the prospect of recovering

Arizona

Id like to be the sort of man the flag
could boast about;
Id like to be the sort of man it cannot live
without
I'd like to be the type Of mar,
That really is American:
The head-erect and shouidssssf"'are.
Clean minded fellow, just ahd far,
That all men picture when they see
The glorious banner Of the free.
Id like to be the sort OF man the flag now
typihes.
The kind of man we really want the flag
to symbolic;
The loyal brother to trust,
The big, unselhsh soul and just,
The friend of every man oppressed,
The strong support of all that's best.
The sturdy chap the banners meant,
Where'er it flies, to represent.
Id like to be the sort Of man the flag sup
posed to mean,
The man that all in fancy see wherever it
is seen,
The chap that's ready for fight
Wherever there's wrong to right,
The friend in every time of need,
The doer of the daring deed,
The clean and generous handed man
That is real American.
