MEXICAN QUESTION
COMING 10 FRONT.
President Holds Conference
With Secretary Polk
HEAD OF NAVY VISITED
Sterilization Of Conditions In Mexico
Attracts Attention At Peace Con-
ference--Time For Action
Seems At fiand.

Washington. - President Wilson
made an unexpected call on Acting
Secretary Polk at the State Depart
ment. The President carried with him
a number of papers and, it was under
stood that the Mexican question was
among the first he wished to consider.
The President remained in earnest
conversation with Mr.. Polk for more
than an hour. The under-secretary
OF state is to go to Faris to succeed
Secretary Lansing on the American
Peace delegation, and it was said that
the President had acquainted him with
the situation there. After leaving Mr..
Folks office the President walked
down the corridor to the office CT
Secretary Daniels, where he went into
conference with the head of the Navy
Department. Many employees in the
State, War and Navy building who
were out for lunch appiauded the Pres
ident.
After remaining closeted with Sec
retary Daniels for half an hour Mr.
Wilson returned to the White House.
Confiscation by the Mexican Gov"
ernment of the property OF the Scot
ltish-American Oil Company Brit
ish Company with several American
stockholders-the first actual conis
cation under the Carranza DEGREES,
which have been the subjects of pro-
tests from Great Britain, Holland,
France and the United States-was
reported to the. State Department.
The property Of the Scottish-Amer-
ican Company, it is said, now was
being operated by the Mexicans, who
have brought in a 10000 barrel oil
we'll on the land. The British Gov
ernment, it was learned, has taken UP
the matter Of seizure with the Mex
lean Government through diplomatic
channels, and has advised the COM
pany pending action to continue to
fulfill it's obligations under Mexican
law
The land on which the Scottish
American Company operated, accord
ing to company officials, was leased
in 1910, conforming in every way with
the law of Mexico.

AIluding to the skepticisnl wit:G
(which the plan for league of nations
first was received, the President sal"
that as the peace negotiations proceed
ed it became apparent to all the dele
gates that such a concert was "a prac'
teal necessity" demanded by "all the
peoples of the world" For the United
States. to reject it. he asserted, would
break the heart OF the world Point
Ing out that many minor compromises
were necessary to secure the support
Of all the interested nations, he con-
tinued:
"The treaty, as result, is not eX-
actly what we would have written. 1t
is probably not what any one of the
national delegations would have writ
ten. But results were worked out
which on the whole bear test. think
that it will be found that the COM
promises which were accepted as in.
evitable nowhere cut TO the heart cf
any principle.
President Given Ovation.
. President Wilson was given an
byation when he entered the Senate
chamber and when he corcludad the
reading of his address, but he was
not interrupted during the reading,
Senators, diplomats and the crowded
gallery following him closely,
After concluding his address the
president formally presented the
treaty to the Senate and the official
ctpy was Immediately referred to the
Fcreign Relations Committee and
rushed to tie printer in order that 1t
might be in the Senator'S hands in the
shortest possible time. Fifty thousand
IEoDies of the treaty and the Presl:
dents address were ordered printed
by the Senate. "
Confers With Senators.
After concluding his address the
President went to his room near the
Senate chamber, where he remained
ncd-,,y an hour receiving Senators and
and discussing the
treaty with many Of them. Reasons
actuating the Pence Conferees on
many important subjects were said to
have been disclosed by the President.
Il All Prccedents Are Shattered:
The far-reaching proposals of the
League covenant. praised on the one
hand as signaling new era of world
brotherhood and condemned on the
other rs marking the end OF national
ism, were submitted In appropriate
setting at a session annulling many
precedents of Senate procedure. IL
was the first time President has
presented treaty in person, and the.
first time a message of presentation
had been received with the Selates

Accepted BY Most Practical.

"The fact that the covenant of the
league was the first substantive part
of the treaty to be worked out and
agreed upon" the President said,
while all else was in solution, helped
to make the formulation of the rest
easier"
Mr.. Wilson said the agreement on
the covenant had given the conferees
feeling that their work was to be
permanent and that the most prac-
tical among them "were at last the
most ready to refer to the League Of
Nations the superintendent of all in
terests which did not admit of imme-
diate determination, of all administra-
tive problems Which were to require
a continuing oversight"
"What had seemed a counsel OF
perfection" said the President, ''had
come to seem a plain counsel of>Reeess-
/sity. The League Of Nations was the
practical statesman's hope of success
in many of the most difficult things
he was attempting" -
MY services and all the informa,
tion possess said Mr.. Wilson, will
be at your disposal and at the disposal
of your Committee on Foreign Rela.
tions at any time, either inforamlly or
in session, as you prefer; and | hope
that you will not hesitate to make use
of them"
American isolation, the President
asserted, was ended 20 years age
when sfthe war with Spain put the
nation in partial control of Cuba and
the Philippines.
"But we have not exploited them"
he continued. eve have been their
friends and have sought to serve them.
There can be no question of
our ceasing to be a world power. The
only question is whether we can re-
fuse the moral leadership that is OF.
fered us, whether we shall accept or
reject the confidence of the world.
~our Destlny-Disetesed..
