MEXICO WILL NOT

Government Policy In Re-
gard to Damage Claims
Against Mexico Out
lined By High
Official

washington. November THE policy
of the United States regarding kidnIQ-
ing of Americans in Mexico and att
tacks upon Americans and their prop
erty in that country was set forth TO-
day In an official announcement that
unless negligence on the part of the
Mexican authorities can be shown
there will be no claim for damages
made by this government. The KID
naping of William o. jenkins, Amer
lean consular agent at Puebla, and the
payment by his attorney of $4,000
ransom fog his liberty was discussed
at length by a high official Of the
State Department in outlining the
policy of the United States.
Jenkins will have to effect his own
reimbursement of the money paid to
the Mexicans who kidnapped him, it
was said, unless he can prove that the
Mexican government was negligible in
affording him projection. The fact
that he was an official of the United
States government has no bearing on
the matter in any way, it was stated.
Americans in Mexico can expect nc
more or different protection than is
afforded to Mexicans under the Mex
lean law, this official said, in definitely
disposing of the suggestion that the
protection sought by Americans in
Mexico through diplomatic channels,
to counterbalance the greater meas
ure of protection granted to MeXicans
by their courts, will not be urged by
this government

An ODE OFFERED TO THE
DEAD,

What is that passing by!
Borne slowly on zephyr wings.
The last Of Rock and Rye
And the joy it always 'bringsi
May be it is Kentuck dew,
Or some of Scotch 3 brother;
The twins that make the sky blue
And there q nest for mother.
1t may be pure Hot Stuff
Flown through bung and bottle;
Can't You hear the last bluff
With death holding the throttle.
All beads and bubbles bursted
And visions mirage crushed,
Will taste now be trusted
When its craving is hushedi
King Whiskey has lost his Crown
His Empire and people too.
In what now will sorrow drown.
And leave the smile with youi /,
The Sun will change its shine
The morn alter its run
Till again we meet with wine
And those you gave the fun.
Sleep on poor, dear old John
In the Spirit land Of grief
We will some good clear morn
Bring You deserved relief.

HoLYoyE HAs LOST HONOR

Been the Birthplace Of Jun,us
Spencer Morgan.

I.olyoke. sIasS.. which has long
claimed the honor Of being the birth
place of Junius Spencer Morgan, grand
father of the present J. 2. Morgan. has
been silon of this fame by the town
of West Springfield. This decision has
been rendered by the Connecticut VAL
ley Historical society.
The explanation lies in ,;he fact that
the present city of Holyoke was for
merly part of the town of West
Springfield and that. contrary to Holy
oke's contention. and the assumption
of the Morgan family. the site OF the
ancestral home Of Junius Spencer Nor
gan is still included within the boun-
daries of West Springfield, though by
u narrow margin.
The present J. P. Morgan received an
opportunity to perpetuate family his
tory in West Springfield through the in
strumentality of any public gift which
appealed to his fancy. Though Mr..
Morgan was unrespCnsive. the contest
between Holyoke and West Springfield
for birthplace honors progressed mer'
rily and was settled only recently. (

Move to Save Potash.

The work of analyzing the raw ma
terials and slags from the blast-fur-
mace industry to determine if possible
the amount of potash now lost in that
industry which might be collected for
fertilizer has been carried on by the
United States bureau of soils during
the last year and is expected TO be
completed during the current fiscal
year. 1t is evident from the work so
far done that a very large amount of
potash can be made available from
this source if suitable collecting ap-
paratus is installed. The bureau is
also conducting research work in the
commercial collection of potash from
cement kilns.
