Panama, June 29.--Upon orders
from Washington, American troops
began policing Panama and Colon at
3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The
action was taken under the treaty of
1904 authorizing the United States to
assume this police duty whenever it
was necessary to maintain order. The
Panama government has protested
to Washington aga.nA the measure.
Because the former administration
had refused to correct conditions in
the two cities, soldiers in the canal
zone were forbidden to enter them
The new administration under Pres
ident Urriola began to clean up the
cities but announced that the cleo
tons fixed for June 80 and July 7
would be postponed for six months.
The opposition party protested to
Washington, claiming that such g.
move would serve no purpose except
to favor the candidates supported by
the new administration. The Aneri-
can state department advised Presi-
dent Urriola to hold the elections but
he replied that a fair election could
not be held now and suggested that
American commissioners assume
charge of an election to be held late

S9giSS Editors
Must Not offend
German Readers
(BY Associated pressN

Paris, June 29.-The Gazette Of
Lausanne, Switzerland, has again
been warned by the Swiss federal
chancelIery in connection with its
savage criticism Of Germans incor-
porated in its review of former Am
bassador Gerard's book, MY Four
Years in Germany. The newspaper
has been notified that another article
of the Sort characterized as threat
ening to compromise Swiss relations
with Germany will be more severely
punished. The warning cites the fol
owing projects in addition to the re
view as Objectionable:
"One sees in the author the memoirs
Of an absolutely honest man required
to live four years among knaVes and
other malefactors.
But Germany has always violated
divine right and human laws. It's
lies, it's inexcusable savageTies and
the relentlessness with which it has
destroyed the most beautiful monu-
ments of the earth and with which 1t
has burned precious libraries and
museums have dishonore1 1t forever
The world must destroy it or the
world Is lost"
The Gazette received a similar
warning on June Z, 1875.
The Journal of this city reproduced
the warning without comment.
