NO INTERVENTION,

u. S. Entry Into Mexico Is
Opposed.

The Student Federation of Mexico is
making every effort possible to prevent
the intervention OF the United States in
Mexico, according to reports from the
Mexican capital.
The students have directed letters to
all similar organizations in other Latin
American countries and one to John
Barrett, director OF the Pan-American
Union in Washington. The letter to
Mr.. Barrett is as follows:

CHILE NOW MOVING
TOWARD PROHIBITION
EUen Distiilery Ouners Said
to Be Favorable.

The Government of Chile recently
adopted restrictive legislation against
the manufacture and sale of intoxicating
liquor. These measures brought the
question of total prohibition to the front
and much warm controversy has ensued
Senior Valdes Cuevas is of the opinion
that If the authorities want TO do good
without damaging the sources of ma
tional production they should begin by
enacting prohibition of the importation
of alcoholic liquor. The capital in
vested In distilleries In Chile Is esti-
mated to be 100000 pesos. More
over, with most of the distilleries are
connected accessory industries which
yield largely food products, as the ce-
cinas.
A curious fact about the situation Is
that the distillery owners seem to be IN
favor of total prohibition. One OF the
most prominent among them says that
they wish to transform their industry
into some other and more. useful line
such as producing liquid fuel, ether, &c
They are, he asserts, already combin-
Ing with La Sociedad de Fomento Fa-
bril- (Society for Promoting Manufac-
tures) and with the Liga Antialcoholica
(Anti-Alcohol League).
Plans are being considered for turn
ing alcohol to wide use as a fuel or
ccrrbustihle especially for internal CON-
bustion motors. The trials already made
have given satisfactory results. Such a
use of alcohol would save the country
the cost of imported gasolene. which in
1919 amounted to 100000 kilos.

CUBAN PLANTERS ACT
TO DEVELOP SUGAR
Legislation Asked for Credits
and immigration.

Aiming to develop the sugar industry
of the country, an association consisting
Of planters and owners OF sugar factories
has been organized in Havana, Cuba.
In resolutions adopted the association
petitions Congress for the passage Of
laws TO encourage immigration. to es-
tablIsh farm credits and to pass other
legislation to encourage the industrial
development of the island.
Luis Mazaurleta of the Province of
Matanzas and one of the leading spirits
In the association, said that the union
OF sugar planters and factory men was
the greatest step taken in Cuba for
economic order. THE constitution marks
n new era In the sugar industry" he
said. TT guarantees the economic sta
bility OF the country In the future and
the success of our competition with the
sugar beet industry and other producers
OF sugar. The fantasy that we are to
fall back into a state of chaos which
our principal industry found itself in
before the war will disappear.
organized in the form we have be-
fore US the association will be a sue
cess. I launched the movement last
year but l could not obtain support on
account of various difficulties. The sugar
industry should be considered to be di-
vided into two parts the industrial, rep
resented by the landowner and the ag-
rcultural represented by the farmer.
The farmer gives the former the raw
product which he makes into sugar after
which 1t is disposed of in a manner
already agreed upon.
Both shall have equal representation
in the association"

COLOMBIA TO GUARD
MILLIONS FROM u. S.
Junta Proposed to Expend
$25, 900, 900 Expected.

BoGoTA, Aug. 31.--Active discussion is
now taking place in the Colombian capt.
tai over a bill introduced into the Cham
Der of Deputies which provides for the
establishment OF junta the duty of
which shall be to superintend the ex-
penditure OF the $25,0O0,000 which Co
lombia expects to receive from the
United States under the provisions of the
Urrutia-T Thompson treaty. This treaty
has been passed BY the Colombian
Senate and is now being discussed by
the Senate of the United States, with
everything in favor of its passage.
The bill as introduced Is made up OF
eight articles. The last five provide for
junta which is to be composed Of
fourteen members, one for each depart
ment These are to be elected by Con-
gress, four being chosen from the Senate,
eight from the Chamber Of Deputies and
two from candidates proposed by the
Government The junta is to have alb
solute authority as to the expenditure Of
the funds, but must make complete re-
ports to Congress of all disbursements.
Its freedom is. however, greatly and
wisely circumscribed by the first three
articles The first of these provides that
no portion Of the S25,000,000 shall be
| used to meet any of the ordinary obliga-
lions of the Government. The second
lnsures the safety of the fund by stipu-
lating that 1t shall be deposited in
| banks of England, France or the United
States of North America. The third
outlines a number of important public
welfare projects which 1t is proposed
| should be carried out with the funds
| thus made available.
Several of these, such as the Pacific
| Railroad. the Cucuta Railroad, the Bo-
gota-Cucuta highway and the canaliza-
| ton of the Bocas de Ceniza (the
Magadalena mouth) already are under
| way. New projects mentioned are the
construction of port works in a Pacific
| and Atlantic port. extensive sanitary
works, the initiation of a commercial
| and war marine, the equipment of the
army and increased educational facilities.

BUENOS AYRES BARS
SALE OF NARCOTICS
City Opens Fight on Drug
Traffic.

BuENos AYREs, Aug. 20.-The munich
pal Government of Buenos Ayres in an
effort to stamp out the drug evil in this
city has enacted stringent regulations
restricting the sale of drugs to the peo-
pie. These regulations prohibit the sale
of certain drugs to people unless they
are able to present prescriptions pre-
pared by registered physicians.
Until this new law was enacted the
drug stores were permitted to sell CO.
caine, morphine. opium and other deadly
drugs with the greatest freedom. The
purchase OF these drugs was not con-
fined to the lower classes, however. The
authorities after investigations have dis
covered that the evil has spread to the
homes of all classes in this city.
The Government has established dis
pensaries for those who are suffering
from various diseases.

This tiAde as short lived, however, as
