FOR STRONG HAND
BY j. S. IN MEXICO
0'Shaughnessy's View of
What Is Needed for Pro-
tecting Americans.

Nelson O'Shaughncssy. charge DAFT
fairies of the American embassy at
Mexico City during the presidency OF
toriano Huerta. which preceded the ex-
listing Carranza regime. was a witness
today before the Senate committee in
Nestigating Mexican affairs. He told
OF the activities of John Lind. Presi-
dent Wilson's special Representative in
the country. and sharply criticised
American policy as carried out toward
Mexico generally.
Mr.. Lind believed that the cause of
all Mexico's troubles was religious. due
to the influence of the Catholic Church.
Mr.. O'Shaushnessy said. and SO stated
to me-.
Calls NaderO n "Dreamer."
'tMadero. "A dreamer" he said. had
been forced to abandon the attempt
to sci up democratic regime in
Mexico. and got TO be a close imitator
of Diaz. simply because the country
could be ruled no other way"
After his overthrow. as I under
stood Mr.. Lind" he continued, lit was
the object OF the United states TO
overthrow Huerta and set up the rev
olutionist. ! think that policy was
Fundamentally wrong
Asked to give his reasons. he added:
countries is to look after our own
interests. the lives and property Of our
citizens. not to interfere with its in
ternal politics. by aiding revolution
or otherwise. I've never known an
other instance when the United States
departed from the proper standards.
The chaotic state of Mexico to,iay is
the inevitable result of the policy
that WAS tried.
Was Huerta's Prediction.
Huerta himself predicted this.
conversations I had with him.. he
continued. Gen. Huerta was insist
ent in declaring that with bis over
| throw. il would not be another gov
ernmeht that got esta blished. but a
state of chaos. He said II would
simply mean that working attempts
at orderly, organized government Of
abandoned.
He also protested very much the
support given by the United States to
carranza. whose real feeling was
anti-American. extreme dislike to the
United States.
"Huerta said that il Carranza ever
got to power he would Immediately
sure Of this. and so informed the State
Department many times. 1t is now
demonstrated to be public property"
Suggests .str0ng Action"
Strong action by the United States

country. O'Shaughnessy said. be
cause when they have learned that
they kill Americans and have nothing
more than verbal protests they aren't

D. c. CHILD LABOR
BILL HEARING ENDS
Senate Subcommittee to
Take Up Measure at First
Opportunity.

Hearings on the Curtis-Gard child
labor bill for the District OF Column
bia were concluded today. The sub
committee in charge Of the bill. head
ed by Senator Jones of Washington,
will take the bill UP for consideration
as soon as opportunity presents
Charles w. Claggett. member of
the Chamber of Commerce and of
committee appointed to consider the
on Saturday in which he criticised
number of the features of the bill.
When he finished Mrs. Florence KEEL
ley general secretary of the National
Consumers League. and Miss Pauline
Goldmark answered some of his crit
icisms.
Sees Faults In Measure.
Mr. Claggett said that under the
provisions of the pending bill it would
he possible to force children to stay
in school until they were sixteen
years old. even though there might
be cases where it was far better
for them to get out and go to work.
He said that he thought the existing
law. by which children We're COM
PEELED to go to school to learn TO
read. write and certain amount of
arithmetic. was sufficient.
He pointed out. too, that Washing
ton is not an industrial city. like
New York. and that the children who
work here do not work in factories
and under evil conditions. as they have
done in some Of the industrial cities.
A third criticism of the measure
that TIE board of children's guardians
was empowered to take child away
from his or her parents on the most
trivial infractions Of the compulsory
educa ton law. and place them in in
stitutions.
Mrs. Kelley CritIcises.
Mrs. Kelley told the committee that
children who were able to read and
write and do little arithmetic might
still be illiterate to a considerable
extent. anu certainly were not to be
considered educated. She said that
the proposed law specified tfat they
| should go through the eighth grade.
children would be forced to stay in
the schools until they had done a
year or two of high school work. as
Mr. Claggett suggested.
While Washington is not an indus
| trial city. Mrs. Kelly said. there is a
double responsibility upon il as the
| National Capital to have model child
labor and compulsory education laws.
Miss Goldmark said that she be-
iieved the proposed law would take a
child from his parents only III the
most extreme cases. and that it gives
| no more power to do this than al
ready exists under the law. and that
| the judge of the Juvenile Court would
be extremely careful before taking
such a step.

of the Times. appeared, he said. not

He pointed out that practically no
new spapers are sold on the streets at
! night in Washington.

Mckee City, we found the Regimbal
Bros. Strengthening under unsanitary
conditions. They were given a writ
ten notification prohibiting them
from slaughtering any more stock on
the premises until after the unsani-
tary conditions were remedied. In
less than four weeks they had built
a slaughter house as per the rules
and regulations of this Division, such
as would be a credit TO a larger
town. Over on the Mckee side of
the Yakima river we found another
party Strengthening in the open. Be
cause of the rigid Yakima city meat
inspection they had to find market
for their product elsewhere, and this
meat food product was shipped to
Gle Flum and Roslyn, and some 70
Ellensburg. This party was notified
and prohibited from slaughtering un-
der the condition. Arrangements
were also made for putting on city
meat inspection in Ellensburg, Gle
Elum and Roslyn, closing these mar
kets against the shippers from out
side of Yakima. This party was
driven to cover and is now slaughter
ing under Yakima city inspection.

'P'''Nu ,NdIINOn.
There have been found at Puget
Sound points thousands of cases of
canned salmon which is unfit for hui
man consumption, some of it having
the appearance of having soured be
fore being canned.
\ meteorological test made of a
number of cases taken from one lot
of approximately 1920 cases show
ed 1t to be an unfit-for-food product
On the investigation of this special
lot it was said that when this sal
mon was delivered to the cannery
those handling it could not fork the
fish from the boats to the dock be-
cause of its almost absolutely decom-
posed condition-they were compel
led to shovel it. The State Food De
partment will petition the superior
court of the county for a requisition
of this product for other than human
food
The department has tied up an
other lot of 1904 cases of canned
salmon which is now being tested by
the State Bacteriologist, and this, if
found to be unfit for food, will be dis
posed of as the above lot.
There is another lot of canned sal
mon of approximately 700 cases
which was condemned by a salmon
expert in 1917 and was turned over
to parties for other than human food
purposes. These parties recently of
fered the 700 cases to japanese
salmon broker on sample, who in
structed that the salmon be placed in
his warehouse. Not being satisfied
with the product, this Japanese cal
led in d salmon expert to pass on the
lot. This expert at once recognizing
it as the same lot which he had con-
demned in 1917 This case is now
being prepared for the courts.
Fish are of the scavenger family
living on refuse and other deleterious
matter, therefore the besh of fish is
not as firm and has not the keeping
qualities which the flesh from our
granted animals has. Fish when
taken from the water begin immedi-
ately to deteroriate. For this rea-
son salmon, to be made into a whole
some canned food product, should be
canned within AZ hours ga hours is
better) from the time they are TAX
en- from the water
But, unfortunately, some Gamers
are seemingly under the impression
that they can hold salmon until il
sours, then cook it at Fahrenheit OF
245 degrees and bring it back to its
normal condition. This high cooking
may destroy all the producing
organisms and prevent the cans
frop swelling, but it remains soul
Just the same. The sooner these
Gamers learn that salmon should be
taken from the water to the FINISHED
canned product with lightning rapid
ity, if possible, the sooner they will
save and make money and the con
suming public will get wholesome
food product at a moderate price
which is now going TO the dump fol
fertilizer plants.
