Pro- erndniSm In Mexico
Is Thing Of The Past; q. S.
MOW Safe From That Threat

Mexico City received from Won Eek
ardt sums ranging from $500 and
news print paper to $4,000 and paper
per month.
Fifteen subsidized papers outside
the capital got s3.500 and print paper
down to $500 and paper. Contracts
to buy so many papers per day Sc
cured virtual control of some smaller
sheets.
On the entire list but one was In
~fluential, FL Democrata OF Mexico
City, whose former editor, Deputy
Rafael Martinez, has been recently
elected to the Mexican senate.
An exposure Of Martinez political
record caused such a drop In circula-
ton that he was forced { dispose Of
Both Felix Palavicini. editor of FL
Universal, and Rafael Auducin, edi-
tor of Excelsior, large influential
Mexico City dailies, lined up with the
Allies from the beginning or the war.
In fact, practically every paper of
importance in Mexico was pro-Ally
without the stimulus of a cent In sub
sidy.
Won Eckardt's expenditure of mill
lions. shown by reports, gained vir-
tually nothing except to faint certain
Mexican officials with pro-German-
ism.
Several months ago Won Eckardt's
work came to an erd when the Swiss
minister at Washington for the sec
ond time Informed the Mexican min
lister hat Chancellor Ebert a sent
orders from Berlin demanding Eek
ardt's return TO Germany.
He left. after an unsuccessful at
tempt to persuade President Carranza
to permit the German charge de af-
fairies to act off}cially for Germany,
Won Eckardt's removal was due to
an American tip to Ebert that he
could choose between the Hun propa.
gandist In Mexico and American food
In Germany.
The intriguer departed not will
the blessings of Mextco's German
junkers, but with their curses. AT ar
Indignation meeting they decided thai
German wal drafts for 100000
marks, forced from them for the
fruitless propaganda campaign, wer'
worthless.
Like u money" said one of theil
spokesman. I'VE were easy marks 70

ed during h past week in the local
real estate market although for sew
eral q previous many Gales have

Fear Presidents Veto
Two tactical considerations entered
into the decision of the Judiciary Com
mittee drys to reject the proposal OF
Representative Walsh of Massachu-
setts for splitting constitution and
wartime enforcement legislation into
two separate bills, even at the cost of
serious delay in passing tho latter.
There was first the fear that Presi-
dent Wilson might veto separate bill
for wartime prohibition enforcement
In view of the statement in his mes
sage to Congress in May that "demo-
bilization of the military forces of the
country has progressed to such a point
that it seemed to him "entire1y safe
row to remove the ban upon the manu-
facture and sale Of wines and beers
and his request for legislation remov-
ing these restrictions, the President
would be entirely consistent, some
members of Congress pointed out, in
refusing to sign legislation intended
to enforce these restrictions.
The drys control more than two
thirds of the House. and they believe
the legislation could be passed over
the Presidents veto, but they think
there is an easier way. By joining war
and constitutional prohibition enforce
ment in one bill they feel there is less
danger of Presidential veto.

would be without any great effect in
wet territory.
1t was indicated by Department of
Justice officials that they will seek to
enforce the act, until special machn-
cry is provided, by making examples"
in various parts Of the country of
those who violate it. If this method
does not prove effective, nothing fur
ther can be done until the enforce
ment legislation is passed and apro-
priations are made to carry it out.
The last minute abandonment of the
Judiciary Committee plan to couple
war and constitutional prohibition un-
der one title in the enforcement bill
and it's acceptance Of tie enforceme mt
bill drawn by Representative Gard,
permits far more liberal policy in
war prohibition enforcement than
would have been possible had the
original plan been carried out.
The Judiciary Committee will give
final consideration to the bill to-mor-
row morning. when reprint will be

w. Q. Cook, Boy Scout executive, has sent the following letter to local requesting their co-opera- ltion in aiding the boys to secure old toys, to be repaired and given away lat Christmas time
 "The Boy Scouts of New Britain lhave expressed the desire to do Christmas good turn in addition to |the daily good turn required by the IScout law. We feel, therefore, that Lit is fitting at this time to lay our |plans for the Christmas season.
 Tt has been suggested that one way |of doing this would be for the Scouts
 Ito collect from New Britain homes all
 old toys for which there is no further
 use with the object of distributing them just before Christmas to such
 families as cannot afford them for |their children. Strange as it may seem there are many such families
 in New Britain in addition to the
 many children in homes.

The twentieth century ciscuit rider who has congregations scat tered over from ten to fifty square miles of territory does not travel from place to place on horseback. Instead he makes use of two of the latest methods of transporta- ton, inlmeasurably faster than the slow-paced Dobbin. He either mounts motorcycle and pfut-pfuts his way from one village to an other or climbs into 9 moderate priced automobile and whirs about. Probably the only reason why he does not use all airplanc is because his congregations refuse to have him risk his life by becoming a "sky pilot" literally as well as hgurativcly.

 After a five day fast they were ravenous and were first in the immi- grants dining hall. They devoured prunes, mush, bread, substitute but ter and coffee and asked for more. Second helpings were refused them, however, not only because one war considered adequate but also because the radicals might have made them selves ill by eating too much.
 The irreconcilables who continued the hunger strike in an effort to have removed an iron barrier separating them from visitors included Ethel Bernstein and Dora Lipkin who were arrested in a raid on a New York Russian headquarters They were the only wome en on hunger strike.
 The silence strike of the 6S also has collapsed Word that the depart ment of justice was providing the island with eight husky guards to force them to attend deportation hearings before immigration inspec- tors was brought to the radicals by their counsel.
