MexicO's Answer.

The Mexican governments reply, which is lengthy one, sets out that the Carranza government is doing the best it can to cope with conditions in remote and sparsely settled regions and suggests Americans in these re- mote places, come into populated centers where they can be protected. Referring to robberies of paymasters of oil companies, the Mexican gov- ernment declared the oil companies had declined guards for them either on grounds that the presence of guards invited attacks by bandits or that the guards misbehaved. Both assertions, the Mexican note declared, are unfounded. The Mexican govern ment, the note further said, has of- fered to reimburse the robbed per- sons of money lost.
 The communication to Mexico is couched in probably the strongest language used in any from this gov- ernment since the exchange preced- ino the Vera Cruz occupation. All official Washington began looking be- hind the official texts seeking some reason for an impending change of policy, for which there has been de mand in and out of congress.

RADICAL CHANGE THREATENED IN MEXICAN POLICY Carranza is Told U. s. Will Act Unless Outrages Are
 Ended. NOTE IS STRONGEST
 SENT IN SOME TIME Pressure from Foreign Governments May Have Influenced Decided Stand Taken at Washing
 ton, is Report.

Washington, Aug. 14.-- The first definite move toward the long ex- pected change in policy in dealing with Mexico was disclosed today.
 Carranza has been warned that if the murders and outrages of Ameri- cans continue, the United States May be forced to adopt radical change in it's policy with regard to Mexico"
 With the announcement at the state department, however, came no authoritative indication of how far the American government is prepar- ing to go to enforce what lacks only the diplomatic technicalities of an ultimatum.
 The government announced it's ac- tion by publishing an exchange of notes with Mexico City and prefaced it's official statement with the expla- nation that the diplomatic represen- tations referred to had been taken Gin view of the long series of out rages of American citizens in Mexico, eliminating in the murder of Peter Carton in San Luis Potosi last month, and the perpetration of other acts in disregard of American lives and pro- perty."
 1 The following note, the state depart ment announced, was presented to 1 the Mexican government by Charge Summerlin of the embassy:
 Mexico City, July P, 1919: "Sir: With reference to the embassy's note dated July 16, 1919, relative to the murder of 1 Peter Catron, near Valles, San I Luis Potosi, on or about July
 seventh last, I have the honor
 to inform you that 1 am now
 under telegraphic instructions
 from my government to urge
 upon the Mexican government l the capture and punishment of
 those responsible for this mur-
 der, and the adoption of ade- quate measures to prevent recurrence of the murder of American citizens.
 "I am also instructed to state
 that should these lives of Amer | can citizens continue to remain
 unsafe and these murders con-
 tinue by reason of the unwill-
 ingness or inability of the Mex
 ican government to afford ade-
 quate protection. my govern
 ment may be forced to adopt
 a radical change in it's policy l with regard to Mexico. 1 Accept, Sir, the renewed as-
 surance of my highest consider
 ation.

PREPARING TO FIGHT ANTI
TOBACCO CRUSADE.

First guns have been fired in
Kentucky by the Allied Tobacco
League Of America, an organization
formed to fight any move to pro-
hibit use of tobacco.
Although DR.. w. A. Gardner, New
York, general manager of the
league, and Emmett Orr, Louisville
field secretary, have just started en-
rolling the 100000 tobacco growers
of the State, five branches have been
established in Shelby, Fayette.
Bourbon, Harrison and Clark coun-
ties, county secretaries being D. T.
Long, Shelbyville; Joseph T. Den
ton, Paris; F.aS. Jameson, Cynthi-
ana, and L. C. Cockrell, Winchester.
Those interested in culture and
manufacture of tobacco have re-
ceived information, it is declared,
that since the nationwide victory
for prohibition, those organizations
which fought liquor will now turn
their attention to tobacco.
Every manufacturer and grower
of the weed is expected to join the
league as soon as it's aims are made
known to opponents of prohibition of
tobacco, say hackers of the cam
paign.
The program of meetings covers
every county and community in
Kentucky and the drive will be car
ried into all States where tobacco
is cultivated or manufactured.

ABAS, THE COMICS!

Publishers of Kansas and Missouri
have petitioned the postoffice depart
ment to put ban on the comic sec
lions that many newspapers send out
in order to conserve the paper sup
ply that much. The whole country
might join in the petition, as the
comic sections serve no good COM
mercial or other sensible purpose,
and are as often devoid of amuse-
ment as they are of sense or in
struction. True, they amuse the
"kiddies," but if the tremendous out.
lay they cost in value Of paper is
continued, the comic section is abso-
lutely a burden and a useless waste

GERMAN FAILURE TO
MAKE PEACE DISCLOSED

Germany's national assembly wit
messed a dramatic scene when Matthias
Erzberger, finance minister, disclosed
that Germany had rejected an oppor-
tunity to make peace in 1917.
The conservatives were responsible
for neglecting the opportunity, Erzber-
ger charged. Cries of "murderers"
came from the socialist delegates.
Erzberger revealed the peace offer
with dSamatic effect when he read
papal correspondence concerning the
British minister to the vatican. He
already had admitted some of Ger
many's war mistakes" when a men,
Der of the assembly threatened the
government with vote of censure.
The letter he read was dated Au-
gust Is, 1917, written by the papal
nuncio at Munish to Michaels, then
chancellor Erzberger explained the
letter covered a telegram to the pa
pal see from the British minister to
the vatican. 1t read in part:
"A declaration is desired with re-
gard to the imperial governments In
tentions toward the complete indie
pendence of Belgium and the payment
of damages to that country. Your
attention also is directed to the ques-
ton of guarantees for Belgium's politi-
cal, economic and military independ-
ence.
IF satisfactory declarations are
made on these points, an important
step will be taken toward peace nego-
tiations.
"The British minister has informed
his government that the nuncio will
answer these questions as soon as the
German governments reply is re-
ceived."
Declaring Michaels had answered
evasively, Erzberger turned toward
the conservatives and shouted:
"You are responsible for the con-
tinuation of the war until we met
defeat"
A tremendous uproar followed, the
socialists assailing the conservatives
with cries OF "murderers."
Erzberger characterized the former
government as a military dictator
ship" charging 1t had withheld truths
from the public, especially with regard
to the blockade and the submarine
campaign. He was convinced at an
early date. he said. that the violation
Of Belgium was mistake"
