Uses 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 its
ultimatum to the Mexican government.
What the administration will do in
the event that Carranza flouts the
United States has not been determined.
1t 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.. VIII
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 a combined mil

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 adj
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 tool the sea route, it is reported
in advices from Mexican sources, be-
cause of the danger of travel by Liant
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 its candi-
date.

Perfects Radio Device.

According to a leading Norwegian
newspaper. Engineer Hermod Peter
son has patented a device for the pro-
duction of electrical current for radio
telegraphy.
The electricity is received by an ac-
cumulator, which releases 1t at certain
intervals. The system is sparkless,
and the sounds are clearer than In the
older inventions, says the Scientific
American. The clearness of sound de-
ponds upon the regularity Of the cur
rent, and with this system the current
Is released with a mathematical ex-
actness.
The device has futher advantages
in that 1t is cheaper. simpler and more
durable than those now In use. If the
claims for this invention prove well
founded, 1t Is thought hat 1t will mark
a distinct step in advance of what has
so far been accomplished in this line,
and hence its possibilities are creating
considerable interest in the radio
world.
