RESUME SENDING OF
FRE|GRTERS TO MEXICO
II They Are Not Promptly Returned,
Arrangements VIII Cease
With Company

LAREDO, Texas, July 5.---Another
effort is to be made to interchange
cars of the connecting railways at
this international gateway. At a
conference of representatives OF the
Constituencies railways of Mex
leo, formerly called the National
railways of Mexico, the Internal
tional and Great Northern and the
Texas Mexican lines, held here few
sending of cars from one side of the
days ago. it was agreed that the
Rio Grande to the other shall be re-
sumed.
This practice was stopped by the
American roads about three years
ago for the reason that it was found
that few Of the cars that entered
Mexico ever got back to this side
They were either lost" or destroyed.
II Is alleged that hundreds of these
freight cars were reprinted in Mex
leo and made to bear the names of
Mexican railroads. In the place Of
an interchange of loaded and I'M
loaded cars at Rio Grande border
points the practice was adopted of
unloading and reloading all inter-
national shipments. This naturally
delayed trafac. was expensive and
annoying.
The Constitutionalist railways Of
Mexico is short of equipment, and all
the larger mining and industrial con-
Germs OF that country have pur-
chased their own rolling stock and
run their private trains in order TO
carry on business. 1t Is stated that
II 1t should be found that the cars of
American railroads which enter
Mexico are not promptly returned to
this side Of the border the new in
terehange arrangement will be abol-
ished.

Of Japanese sayal forces to protect

The action followed an attack on a
Japanese officer by FIVE armed Rus
slams. who, upon being refused
money. killed one Japanese and
wounded two others. The force land.
ed was said to be small, and only
sufficient to prevent further dis.

II was learned officially that the
American government attaches no
political significance TO this incident.
LII other words, 1t is not regarded as
being connected in any way with the
much discussed possibility OF Japan
ese Intervention in Siberia. The
landing party was from a Japanese
cruiser in Vladiyostok harbor.
Since the return to- Japan from

minister to P~etrograd, the Japanese

that Japan does not intend at pres

should arise.

Deferred Privilege To Be Revoked
Unless Respected, Is New Plan
Submitted to President.

Notifications Proposed Would Put In

Nations Labor Problem, In
creasing Outputs.

Washington, April TN q plan
submitted to President Wilson by
officials of the provost marshal gen.
erals office and the department OF
labor, drastic modification OF the
draft classification lists which would
affect one way or another every one
of the millions of registered men is
proposed.
While the primary purpose OF the
new program is the qualification" OF
the second, third and fourth classes
OF registrants who are not engaged
in any productive industry, attention
also would be given to lower sec
lions of Glass /, and the effect it's
trainers believe would be to solve
the nations labor problem and large
ly increase the output of the neces-
stiles of life.

The proposal would utilize the
draft machinery for putting indus

deferred classification would be Civ.

ment is rot a legal right, but a privi-
lege and that If unfair advantage is
taken of that privilege, it will be
summarily revoked.
1t Is proposed to make a most
careful survey of the lower sections
OF Glass l and of other classes to
identify those men who are idlers
or who are gaining their living
through undesirable or HARMFUL
pursuits. Under the latter head, Off
Gals suggest might be listed gam
lers, bookmakers for races, pool
room toats and others. Formal noti-
fcation would be served upon the
men that unless within a specified
time they obtained employment in
some useful industry, they would
have their classification status chang
ed so as to send them into military
service Immediately.

The plan is not designed to inter
fere with the so-called nonessential
industries. These may be affected
to some slight degree but officials
say much injury would be Offset
many times over by the resulting
national good from the augmented
labor supply and the greatly in
creased production OF essentials.
