U. S. Takes Unusual Pre-

The mysterious move made by the
government Of Mexico In Withdrawing
its diplomatic representative from

to take extraordinary precautions IN

The first evidence OF the added Wig

yesterday by President Wilson, au-

the canal. II is under the same au-
thority that the Secretary Of the
Treasury exercises a rigid censorship
over the territorial waters OF the
United States.
The President specifies that AL
acts heretofore done by the governor
Of the Panama Canal Zone or under
his authority are hereby ratifed and
confirmed"
As construed by experts OF the State
Department the espionage act, now
extended 20 the Canal Zone, will
enable the United States authorities
to exercise the right OF visit ana

What Will Kaiser, Saw?

The international committee of the
Red Cross has issued an appeal to
oil belligerent armies to abandon the
use of asphyxiating gas by common
agreement. Germany introduced gas
as weapon of human destruction. II
has been one of the crulest features
OF the war thus far developed. Other
nations were compelled, against their
better impulses. to resort to the same
agency when it was found that the
enemy proposed employing the deadly
fumes on every possible occasion.
The allied governments doubtless
would willingly assent TO the plea that
has been entered by the Red Cross
But what will Germany say? Up to
now the Hun government has been
deaf to appeals dictated by the cries
OF humanity, and, while it is hoped
that she win be moved by the latest
one, if she does she will completely
surprise the remainder of the world.

Stronger Army staff.

1t is reported that a shakeup Of the
army staff is proposed by Secretary
Baker in order that the better trained
men may be placed in posts they are
most fitted for. 1t is a coordination
program. bringing together of the
various bureaus through rapid think
ers, men trained to the finger tips for
the activities to which they will be as
signed, and who will know how to
handle a situation, no matter its CON-
plexity, the minute they get look at
1t. This is all intended to put more
speed into war preparations, if that
be possible; a cutting out of all red
tape; a means Of grasping affairs
without delays that have been mani
fest occasionally since the nation en-
tered the war. Mr.. Baker has realized
for some time that a few changes
would be helpful to the efficiency Of
the national war program, but he has
not proposed playing the role of the
bull in the china closet. Rather has
he elected to bide his time, and to
study out and settle upon the most ex,
pedient arrangement. According 20
advices from Washington, he has made
up his mind as to the new men he is
to call to his assistance and that in
every instance they will prove indi-
viduals of peculiar fitness for the dut-
les they are to be charged with handl-
ing.
