SOME MYSTERY
IN MEXICAN WAY
Trying to Find the Power
That Egged Her On
PROCESS OF ELIMINATION
Both France And italy Have Refused
To Accept Her Envoys--ln Bad
odor With Civilized
Nations. ss

Neutrality-suspicious. interest was
manifested here in official circles as to
the identity of the governments
friendly to Mexico" that have request
ed the Mexican Foreign Office to. ex-
press an opinion on the recognition of
the Monroe Doctrine, as announced in
official dispatches from Mexico City.
The publication of the signatories to
the League of Nations covenant and
the names of those countries invited
to join the league caused officials to
wonder which countries had made in
Quiries of the Carranza government on
this matter. 1t was intimated in OFF,
cial circles that diplomatic investiga-
tons might be made to ascertain the
identities of the nations referred to in
the Mexican official statement.
Officials pointed out that Argentine,
Chile, Salvador, Colombia. Paraguay
and Venezuela were the only Latin
American countries that did not break
with Germany during the war and it
was said that the governments friend
ly to Mexico" mentioned by the Mex
lean Foreign Office might be among
these.

Mexico, would not have made the in
CURRY because her policy would be
largely dependent upon Mexico's
Paraguay was eliminated because of
her isolated territory and lack Of in
terest in the subject. 1t was pointed
out that Colombia and Venezuela have
on number of occasions approved the
application of the Monroe Doctrine,
so it is considered unlikely they sought
| the information.
Thus by process of elimination, the
conclusion is that il such an inquiry
were actually made it probably came
from Argentina and Chile. Both these
couneries have been invited to join
the League of Nations and both have
| officially expressed their approval of
the organization. The inclusion of the
Monroe Doctrine specifically in the
covenant of the league has not brought
forth any protest from either country.
Mexico's announcement Of refusal to
recognize the Monroe Doctrine, it was
stated by a high official, was made
after she had learned definitely she
was not to be invited to become a
member of the League of Nations.
This is also believed to have precipi-
tated the recall of Alberto j. PAM as
minister to France, where he could
not secure an audience for the presen-
tation of his credentials. Rumors have
reached Washington that Eduardo
Hay, who was accredited to the Italian
Government by Carranza and has not
been received, also has been recalled.

GUARD IN BRILLIANT ARRAY
Crs.an Soldiers In Attendance on
venizelcs at Peace Conference
Were GorgeousIy Uniformed.

Kings, presidents and premiers
ceased to be a novelty at the peace
conference, but the bodyguard Of Pre-

to attract great crowds. At the hotel
where the American delegation was
housed and at the foreign Office, Ven
izelos' approach was always heralded
by the arrival of one Of his Cretan
soldiers arrayed more brilliantly than
a c0mic-opera bandit.
The Cretans who escorted the Greek
statesman were all more than six feet
tall and apparently had been chosen
from various organizations. as diff
ferent man appeared daily, and the
same uniform was never seen twice.
The swarthy Cretans all had small
waxed mustaches twisted into up
turned points and stood rigidly at at
tention for hours while awaiting NJ,

or the foreign Office. The jibes OF
small boys and the jokes of various
allied soldiers who gathered in won

Perhaps the most startling uniform
worn by one. Of the guards consisted
Of white tights bound by tasseled
black silk cords at the knees, a red
velvet blouse and sash, red fez sur
mounted by black silk tassel so long
that 1t fell below the waist, and black
sandals with upturned toes topped by,
great black silk pompons. This cos
tune was completed by an ivory-han-
died knife two feet long thrust care
lessly into the sash.
The knives and swords worn by the
Cretans were the chief feature of the
uniforms and made collectors Of an
tique weapons very envious. They,
were Of all sizes and shapes and had
sheaths Of great splendor, jeweled and
carved in marvellous manner.
Some of the guards were bare-kneed
and had costumes not unlike the
Scotch in style, but much gaudier in
color. Others wore marvelously dec
Grated leggings reaching far above
the knees. Capes &C Oriental hues
were frequently worn by the Cretans
and added to the brilliancy Of the
Greek uniforms, which made the fancy
dress uniforms Of the French and
English look somber.

"Jugo- Slavs" means South Slavs. The
origin of the word as political desig-
nation is not definitely known. 1t APP
peared, perhaps, first as an official
name for a South Slav combination at
the convention of Corfu. 1t had, how
ever, been used previously by Arch
duke Francis Ferdinand to describe the
Slavic people of southern Austria
Hungary, Serbia and Montenegro.
According to the plan credited to
him the South Slavs were to be united
into one nation and to form an. in
