Mexico DisilIusioned on
Subject of Revolutions,
Says Corrorza Leader

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24-Deputy Mar
tinez Del Rio. leader Of the govern
ment minority in the Mexican Cham
Der of deputies. admitted, during a
recent debate that the revolution
that brought the present government
into power was a failure, according to
a report eaching Washington today.
The debate occurred at one of the
stormiest sessions ever known in a
Mexican Congress, when in session,
it was said, broke up in disorder
without an attempt to take vote on
the question of withdrawing from
President CarranZa the "eXtraOrdin-
airy powers" under which he has de-
creed numerous laws.
Deputy Del Rio. in his speech said,
us it not in the conscience of all but
this last revolution has been a fail
ure? Did not the revolution insCribe
on the program the ballot, the division
of lands, social betterment, and other
fair promises? And are we not daily
Witnessing abuses such as have never
been known before?
The people are now convinced how
vain are these revolutionary promis-
es and as this conviction is now pro
found there will be no more revolu-
tons. Revolutions are not made by
a handful Of ambitious men, but by
the people themselves. The Mexican
people is wholly disillusionized by the
failure of the last revolution"
The report stated that this speech
from the Carranza leader created a
profound sensation throughout Of
fetal circles in the capital.

Unrest Faces President

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 25. -
President Wilson, trying to get an or
dered rest. today had before him a
program of unrest the like of which
has never before been put up to an
American executive at one time.
Here are some of the bigger prob
lens that are Cup to the president:
Threatened strike Of hundreds of
thousands Of bituminous mine workers
scheduled for Nov l.
Existing strike of steel workers and
the action of the A. F. of L. in de-
manding the moral and financial sup
port of all labor to help win this
struggle.
Threatened strike of 100000 railroad
shopmen who have given the admins
traion until Nov. IS to reduce living
costs materially.
Threatened strike of other railroad
brotherhoods which have not enforced
wage demands because they preferred
to wait and see if living costs couldn't
be reduced.
The breakup of the labor-capital pub
lie peace conference with the neces-
sity for recognizing the public group
in the hopt that it may develop some
tangible constructive measures to pro-
mote industrial peace.
Then there is the treaty of peace.

GARY APPLAUDED
BY STEEL AND iron
MEN AT MEETING

NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-More than
1900 members Of the American Iron
and Steel Institute at meeting here
Friday unanimously adopted a resolu-
ton indorsing the stand taken by
Ebert H. Gary, chairman of the board
of directors of the United States Steel
corporation, at the National Indus
trial conference at Washington. The
resolution was carried after a speech
by Judge Gary. and its adoption was
marked with an ovation to the speaker
which lasted several minutes.
In his speech Judge Gary criticised
the makeup of the industrial confer
ence. He said that in the employers
group there were several, certain Of
whom at least should have been with
the larbor group"
In regard to the public group, he
said that thousands of vocations, pro-
fessions, and other lines of industry
had been overlooked, "all of which are
affected more or less by the cost of
production, the expense of living and,
therefore, the control and conditions
of both labor and capital"
In regard to the labor group, the
head Of the steel corporation objected
that there was no special representa-
ton Of unorganized labor.
The same mistake seems TO have
been made" he commented. by q
large portion of the public that was
made throughout the war. namely,
that organized labor really represents
workmen or wage earners generally
Notwithstanding that, as a matter OF
fact, at least IS per cent of the total
are nonunion-not members of any
union or organization"
Referring to racial agitation, Judge
Gary said that much had been made
public lately about the attempt tc
spread the doctrine of Bolshevisn
| is persistent"

Poincdre's Casualties in
War Include ; Houses
(By Associated PreSs)

PARIS, Oct. 25.- When President
Poincare leaves the Elysees Palance,
the French White House, four months
hence to make way for a new chief
executive Of the republic, he will, like
a great many more ordinary citizens,
be obliged to grapple with the difficult
lodging problem.
When he was elected president he
had four domiciles, his apartment in
Paris which he gave up at once, his
villa at Sampigny, the old family
homestead at Nubecourt and a small
house at Bar le Due. The Sampigny
villa was completely wrecked by the
German artillery firing from the Camp
Of the Romans near Saint Mihiel, the
homestead at Nubecourt was denol-
ished by the explosion of an army mot
or truck loaded with gasoline, while
a bomb from a German airplane fell
full into the center of the house at
Bar lie Due and left nothing standing
but ragged walls.
Consequently the next ex-president
will have to go house hunting along
with thousands of other citizens, run
ming the same small chance Of finding
a suitable abiding place.

INTEREST IN SALE
OF OXFORD LIGHT
PLANT IS STRONG

OXFORD, O., Oct 25-As the day
for voting on the proposition to sell
the municipal light plant draws near,
increased interest in the question is
being shown by all classes Of citi-
zens. The Socialists, who started the
movement for a referendum on the
sale Of the plant to the Ohio Gas and
Electric Co., of Middletown, are not
strong enough to carry the election
by themselves, but they are backed by
large number Of citizens who, for
sentimental reasons alone, are OPP
posed to the sale of the plant.
On the other hand there are a large
number who greatly favor the sale
scheme. Those best informed on the
subject say that the vote will be close,
but are inclined to believe that the
opposition will lose. A number of
prominent business men, who have
all along been against the sale, are
known to have changed their minds
within the last week, and it is believed
that others will change before Novem-
Der 4. Both sides are working hard,
and large vote will be polled.

HALE AND JOHNSON
SPAT over TREATY

Washington, Oct. 25-After another
day Of debate on the Johnson amend
ment to the peace treaty, Senate
leaders said Friday that although they
would try to bring the proposal to a
vote tomorrow, they were by no
means certain the plan would succeed
They placed the time Of meeting an
hour earlier than usual in the hope
that the Senate might talk itself out"
before night.
During most of today's session the
debate dragged along without much
show Of interest, but Immediately be-
fore adjournment the undercurrent Of
bitter feeling cropped out in sharp
exchange between Senator Hiram w
Johnson, Of California, Republican, au-
thor Of the amendment, and Senator
Frederick Hale, of Maine, Republican,
opposing it.
Declaring that the amendment,
which proposes in effect that in any
decision by the League of Nations the
United States shall have as many
votes as Great Bratain and her col
onies, in actual operation would not
insure equality in the league, Senator
Hale had argued that better results
could be accomplished by a reserva-
ton on the subject
He alluded to Senator Johnson s
plea that his amendment represented
t'the viewpoint of Americanism,' and
continued:
Let me say to the Senator from
California that the motives of those
opposing his proposal are every bit
as high as his motives.
81 am quite as much opposed as he
is to inequality in the league, but
believe in meeting it with a reserva-
ton which will remedy it, rather than
with an amendment which will not

President to Receive
Prohibition Bill If
Condition Will Permit

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-Should
President Wilson's condition continue
to show Improvement today, it was
thought Rear Admiral Grayson, his
personal physician, would permit him
to receive the prohibition enforcement
bill with the attorney-generals opin-
ion on its constitutionality attached
The measure was sent to the white
house yesterday, but was withheld for
fear of overtaxing his energy in view
of the other questions demanding his
attention.
Previously the president has shown
an eagerness to get into the study of
the prohibition enforcement bill, and
it doubtless will be the next legisla-
tive subject brought to his notice.
