No Menace to Monroe

Of The United States
American Government Not to Interfere
UNITED Pres. Service,


WASHINGTON, April lin an in
terview published in the Washington
Star today, Mr.. Ignacio Bonillas,
Mexican ambassador. declared that
that attempts to create ill feeling be-
tween the United States and Mexico
through working Japanese buga-
boo," are groundless and malicious.
Mr.. Bonillas sees in the Mexican
proposal to colonize vacant lands no
menace to the Monroe doctrine or
defiance to the United States
Officials here believe that the pro-
posed sale of Lower California lands
to japanese interests appears to be
merely a private transaction, without
international significance, and it is
Indicated that unless clearly shown
thae it involves definite plan of ag-
gression by some foreign government,
the United States might not inter-
fere.
Advices here indicate that neither
the Japanese nor Mexican govern
ment is involved in the transaction.

The Daily Morning Oasis auton1o-
bile and grand prize campaign is
rushing through the last hours and
when the call of "time" is shouted
all will be over.
Excitement has become feverish.
Candidates are working like beavers
to make every minute count.
There were rumors Of dark horses
yesterday, that are quite worthy of
credence. The conditions are such IN
district number one that a candidate
with enough votes for start would
be indeed wanting in spirit, it she
or he did not go after the capital
prize, Columbia Six, in a race where
some are lying down with the idea
that it is all over, and they have the
prize within their grasp and there Is
nothing more to do but wait for the
distribution of prizes. Some candi-
dates far down in the list have seen
their opportunity and have taken ad-
vantage of it. There's many a slip
possible before the close of the cam
uairn. A candidate who lays down
now after making a good showing so
far, is going to be passed by some
other candidate who has been busy
during the last few days. Many
things can happen between now and
the end of the race and the only safe
way to do is to be prepared by hav-
ing enough votes.
Changes In Line-Up
The sensation in today's vote stand
ing is Mrs. A. L. Hanson, of Elgin.
In the list published in yesterdays
paper Mrs. Hanson held ninth place.
Today she is firmly established in
first, with a total of 303,100 votes to
her credit. Mrs. Hanson holds the
distinction of being the first candi-
date to pass the three hundred thou
sand mark, and is one of the hardest
workers in the entire contest. Mrs.
Hanson's district is very scattered and
she has done exceedingly well and
promises to be right up in the CO.
