WASHINGTON. Jan. 2.-The ones
ton of the future relations be-
tween the United States ard
Mexico was brought fOrcibiy to
the attention of the senate today
by The Introduction Of two reso-
buttons by Senator Henry F. As
hurst. of Arizona
The first resolution seeks TO pave
the way for the purchase by the
United States OF the entire peninsula
of Lower California and ten thousand
square miles in the state of Sonora
by negotiation between the two coun
tries. Senator Ashurst said the prin-
cipal object he had in view In sug-
gesting the purchase of lower Cali
fornia is To prevent Magdalena Bay,
the American navel rendezvous. from
falling into ,he hands OF Japanese IN
terests or being controlled by the Ja-
panese government.
The purehs So Of territory in Sonora,
north Of the thirtv-irst parallel,
would establish a new border for
Arizona about twenty-five miles south
of the present boundary. and would
give to the United States entire con-
troll of The Colorado river and a con-
siderable portion OF the Gulf of Cali
fornia below the mouth OF the river.
PRttkfs DNnRNSfL CLAIMS.
The other resolution asks for the
appointment by the secretary OF war
Of a military commission to investi-
gate all claims for damages arising
out of border raids by insurgents,
revolutionists and Mexican federal
troops since December /. 1912.
Senator Ashurs, announced he
would address the senate on the SUD-
ieets of the two resolutions probably
on Saturday ~ this week. In the
meantime. the resolution for the pur-
chase of Mexican territory will lie on
the table; the other resolution was
referred TO the military affairs com
mittee.
When Senator Ashu~sts resolution
for sfm purchase ~ Mexican terri
tory had been read, Senator Borah

better to postpone the proposition un-
til the League of Nations Is formed
