Wos amusing statements are nade in connection with the announcement of the organization. One is that the purpose will be Ito keep the American people better informed as to events at
 the Peace Conference." It is hardly
 expected that the public will swallow such shallow deceit. The other is that the organization Twill be supported by voluntary contributions" In other words Messrs. Reed, Borah and Poin- 1 dexter are going to extend to the peo- 1 pie the courtesy and privilege of giv- l ing their hard earned cash to Messrs 1 Reed, BOrah and Poindexter.

Washington, Nov. 24-Unless Car
rama releases the American consular
agent, William O. Jenkins, and prom
iseS to permit no further molestation
of the official, the administration will
be face to face with the question of
fulfillment of the threat it made in it's
ultimatum to the Mexican government
What the administration will do in
the event that CarranZa flouts the
United States has not been determined.
It is known, however, that Secretary
Lansing will urge the President to
sever diplomatic relations at once and
to intervene primarily for the rescue
Of Jenkins.
In taking this stand for aggressive
action in dealing with Carranza, Mr..
Lansing has the support of several
other members of the cabinet, all of
whom are prepared to press Mr.. Will
son to adopt the course proposed.
If it becomes necessary to intervene
for the rescue of Jenkins it is proba-
BILE that there will be combined mil
itary and naval operation. The navy
would take Vera Cruz again and troops
would be landed there and transported
over the railroad to Puebla, where
Jenkins is incarcerated. At the same
time the military would seize the Mex
lean railways at the American border
and proceed southwark to Puebla.
In considering these plans the ad-
ministration is mindful of the fact
that if the United States intervenes
again, whatever the immediate pur-
pose, it will be necessary to stay in
Mexico until Mexico is pacified and the
menace to America ended forever
Gen. Alvaro Obregon, candidate for
the presidency of Mexico, is on his
way by sea to Manzanillo, on the west
coast of Mexico, on a campaign tour.
He took the sea route, it is reported
in advices from Mexican sources, be-
cause of the danger of travel by land
through regions held by various rebel
bands After a short time on the west
coast, Obregon plans to go directly to
Mexico City, where he will carry the
campaign against Carranza and Luis
Cabrera into the heart of the "enemy's
country" He expects to arrive in
Mexico City late next month and will
attend the convention of the Liberal
Constitutional party, which, it is under
stood, will indOrse him as it's candi-
date.
