to Obregon in many letters
Notwithstanding his choice of Bon

advances Obregon rejected fatty.
Thus Carranza became finally con-
WINGED he could not handle Obregon
and suddenly there appeared the gov

Obregon realizes that the man who
would be a true president, cannot toll

have been beneficial to the Carranza
insiders, giving them privileges which
swelled their fortunes at the expense
of the people.

Politicians See Clever Move in
Lodge Appointment.
Senate Leader Has So Far Been
Absolutely Neutral.
BY HAROLD D. JACOBS.

New York. May II. - The feeling
prevailed in Republican circles today
that the national committee had exc
cuted a clever move in steering the
temporary Craftsmanship of the Chi
cago convention safely past the rocks
of partisanship.
Selection of Senator Lodge for that
position, which also entails prepara-
ton and delivery of the keynote"
speech, was generally regarded as a
mastery piece of political balancing
that would get the convention thru it's

stages without danger of factiona1 dis
ruption.
Sen. Lodge Is Neutral
Lodge, so far as is known, has ad-
vocated the, candidacy of none of the
Republican presidential aSpirants The
principal idea, however, was to choose
some one to be temporary chairma n
who would be acceptable to the four
candidates who are practically certain
to lead on the first ballot-Wood,
johnson, Lowden and Senator Hard
ing.
Nations pact proposed by Lodge have
received the endorsement of practi-
cally all the leading Republican candi-
dates and have formed the basis of
declarations made by various Repub-
lican state conventions of the attitude
to be adopted by the national con-
vention toward that phase of interna-
tional relations.
Executed Clever Maneuver.
The national committee-or rather
that body's subcommittee on arrange
ments-further avoided creating fric-
ton in it's deliberations at Chicago by
recommending that a permanent
chairman be named to succeed Lodge
after the convention gets under way.
The understanding. however, was that
Albert ]. Beveridge, former senator
from Indiana, would receive the COM
mittee's moral support" for the per-
manent craftsmanship.
Lowden's victory in the Illinois state
convention yesterday brought him
close to johnson as regards instructed
delegates. The present standing is:
Wood, lis; Johnson. 107; Lowden, 95;
Harding, SO; Senator Poindexter. IA.
Contests Cut Woods Lead.
Filing of notice of contests in sew
eral states has seriously cut down
Woods former lead, as the status of
several delegates instructed for him
will not be finally determined until the
committee on credentials makes its
rulings.
Republicans were holding a state
convention in Alabama today to
choose fourteen delegates. 1t was be-
lieved this state, like other southern
states would send contesting delegates
Democrats were to elect twenty-four
delegates in a primary in Alabama to-
day.

Ell Paso, Tex, May 11.-Carranza' s
"dictatorial and immoral policies
eliminating in his attempt ito prevent
Obregon having a fair campaign" for
the presidency, caused Carranza's
overthrow, according to Roberto V.
Pesquiera. financial agent of the revo-

United Press an exclusive statement
here today.
1.-The revolution proposes to CONSOLE
date all the elements of the country

respect foreigners and their interests
with which We aim to maintain the
most cordial relations" stated Mr..
Pesquiera. His Statement follows:
THE revolutionary movement which
has swept the Carranza party from
power in the republic of Mexico within
month means in the clearest sense
that the Mexican people are no longer
disposed to tolerate imposition of
dictatorial power by their rulers. The
people will not permit any persons or
group of persons to make the cleo
lions instead of the people themselves.
This movement means the solution of
the problems that originated the revo-
luton in 1910 which Carranza's gov
eminent either could not or did not
solve.
General Obregon in accepting the
nomination for president by the Lib
eral-C onstitutionalist party, declared
he would not tolerate the co-eXistence
of elements that have taken advan-
tage of power for purposes of corrup-
ton, but that the government would
be based upon absolute morality and
honesty, should he come to head it

PREDICTS MIGHTY CONFLICT
!. Ham. Lewis Says Germany, Japan,
Russia Arrayed Against U. S.

St. Louisa warning that war be-
tween the United States as against
allied Japan, Germany and Russia
was imminent and that partisanship
would interfere with Americas roper
prosecution of it, was sounded by
former United States Senator James
Hamilton. Lewis of Illinois, in an adj
dress at the banquet which ended the
43rd annual convention Of the Ameri-
can Bar association here.
Mr.. Lewis declared that the next
president would command the nation
through the probable conflict.
"The revenge Of Germany, the ven
geance of Russia, and the original
hatred Of Japan will assail the SUI
premacy of the United States to de-
stroy it," he said, land the people of
u nation are blind to the approach
of this calamity and are making no
proper preparations to avoid it.
The convention concluded without
taking any action on the report Of
the committee on the league of ma.
lions. Hampton l.. Carson of Phila.
delphia, the outgoing president, ex.
planned the report probably would
die" as the league controversy had
become a political question:" and
that it was contrary to the bylaws
of the organization to take any action
on any political subjects. The ma
jority report Of the committee recon-
mended that the league be endorsed,
but a minority report announced it
was unable to concur with the ma
jority one.
