A BITTER ATTACK
ON GEN. CARRANZA

Mexico City. Feb. S---The Permanent
Legislative Commission which sits dur
ing the adjournment of congress. has
ordered the attorney general to inve3-
tigate stories printed by virtually every
paper OF the capital on February I,
that, following a heated session of the
commission, the members OF the Con-
stitutionist Liberal Party had decided
to issue manifesto attacking Presi
dent CarranZa and the administration
and aligning themselves in support Of
the constitution of 1857 as against that
formed last year at Qucretaro.
Published reports of the meeting of
the commission state that in speeches
by the opponents of President. notably
by General Garcia Vigil, the chief eX-
ecutiye was accused Of abusing the eX-
traordinary powers in financial and
other matters that were granted by
him the legislature.
a ma jority of the Constituencies Lib
eral Party. which consistently has OPP
posed the present administration. Their
opposition was intensified recently by
the ruling of the president that menu
bers Of the legislature. except the per-
manent commission. would be forced TO
submit, with other government en-
ployes, to a curtailment Of % per cent.
of their salaries. The legislators also
were denied a large sum they Claimed
for travelling expenses.
Replying to the assertion of the mem-
bers of the commission that the pr;ntCi
charge that a manifesto was contemp-
lated, was false. the papers asserted
they had proofs to sustain their aNesa-
tons. No arrests have been made f"f
what some papers have termed IN }
unreasonable proceedings" and it IS
stated that the forces behind the man
ifesto are stronger than surface APP
pearances indicate.

eddy as he ran, a dangerous trip through
hostile country until he reached the
banks of the Rhine. an icy swim for an
hour against strong tide. finally reachinA
the Swiss shore near Schaffheusen. we're
some of the experiences that Maurice
Muller had to undergo before ne finally
arrived in Paris yesterday and applied 20
the American Red Cross for assistance.
Emile Desroches, a friend. who vas
with him when he slipped out of the oris-
on camp and dived into the Rhine, began
singing the 'Marseilaise" in defiance, as
with powerful strokes he made for swift
zerland and liberty. \ German patrol
fired in the direction whence the sound
of the singing was coming. Whether
struck by the German bullets or carried
away by the treacherous tide, Desro ,hes
has not been seen since.

then Is years of age. and his brother
Georges, aged II. were bundled into a
train that was leaving Ostend for Ger

Dor. insufficient nourishment soon made
the young boy physically unfit and last
October he was in such an emaclatcd
condition that it aroused the pity of even
the Germans and he was sent on to
France.
Last evening as Mullet sat in front II
a substantial meal supplied by the Red
Cross, smoking American cigarettes from
American Red Cross stores. he said ~
his younger brother, who has been in
Paris for some time:
This beats the dog meat, potatoes and
rrtabaga they used to serve us at Darn

A Red Cross representative is beIn;ne
to find work for them.
