Blockade Probable.
'y Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
Hythe, England, Aug. 9.-How to
save western Europe from bolshevism
was the burden of the discussion at
this mornings conference here be-
tween Premiers Lloyd George and
Millerand, and altho the final decision
was still pending this afternoon, the
chief weapons will probably be a
blockade and the establishment of a
defensive league in Poland.
1t Is said that the allies, tho loath
to admitting it, feel that there is little
hope Of saving Warsaw and that the
question Of saving Poland is not the
main issue.
The main problems facing the pre-
miers are the defense Of western
Europe. The prevailing impression
among the British and French Off
cials is that the soviet government
hopes thru the Polish offensive, firm
ly to establish bolshevism at the
doors Of the western powers.
A continuation of the conference
this afternoon is said to have been
necessitated thru the failure Of the
two premiers to agree on the situa-
ton.
Premier Millerand is urging the
French policy, which includes the
blockade and defensive measures al
ready indicated. It is stated that
Premier Lloyd George, altho not op-
posed to a blockade. is reluctant to
sever definitely all negotiations with
Russia, and it is believed that M
Kameneff and Krassin, the soviet
emissaries, will be allowed to remain
in London for the time being.
The British premier is reported to
be hoping against hope that some
peaceful solution will be found.

ADVOCATES TWO
 STATES AS GOOD MEXICAN REMEDY

Worcester. Mass. May 24.--The df- vision of Mexico at the 22nd parallel by the creation with force if neces- sary, of an independent Mexican re- public-including the present states of Sonora, Chihuahua, Sinaloa, Dur ango Coahuila, Nuevo Leon and Ia maulipas and the territory of Lower California-was advocated here to- night by Henry Lane Wilson. former United States Ambassador to Mexico.
 MT. Wilson declared that such an independent republic. as a buffer state three times the size of Texas between this country and southern Mexico, would afford self government to northern Mexico, the breeding ground of all recent Mexican revolu- tons" which Mexico City never had been able to control successfully.
 MT. Wilson painted a gloomy pic ture of political conditions in Mex ico.
 "Diaz was the last of 63 Mexican presidents all of whom attained pow CT by revolutionary methods and were expelled by violence" he said. Since the time of Diaz seven chief execu- lives have presided over the destf- nies of that unhappy country"
 To remedy these conditions Mr. Wilson recognized two possible meth
 
 employed by Diaz, Madero and Huer- ta, and that of evolution
 Mexico can never be revoIutioniz- cd into the practice of constitutional and democratic methods he said. Eighty per cent of the population can neither read nor write and are aS ignorant of the fundamental prin- oeples of true democracy as a Zulu or a Hottentot. Any scheme for the restoration of peaceful conditions in Mexico must involve firm government accompanied by gradual extension of power to the people as they become more fitted for its exercise by edu- eatfon.''
 He admitted that "any plan origi- hating with this government for the restoration of peaceful conditions in Mex1co will be in large measure re- pugnant to the Mexican people. 'But," he said, cit also must be re- membered that the phrase Mexican people, is merely a figure of speech. What we have is a sick patient, re- curing a drastic surgical operation The knife should be applied without consideration of the patients wishes. 9
 AS an alternative to his "buffer state, MT. Wilson advocated active and sympathetic support of the ina tural governing clements in Mexi- CO., By these he said he meant the white race and elements in the pop- ulation in sympathy with it' Of Mexico's 14,0O0,00O population, prob ably 3,o0o,000 would fall under this description. including the mass of landowners, office holders, the bar, the bench. army officers and most of the shopkeepers.
 Sooner or later," he predicted. ''this element vii come into control and it would be the part of wisdom to recognize the position of this ele- ment. to weld it into an organized force by the supply of arms and to support it with official sympathy

MARY, OF HUNGARY.

This was a woman of many ac- complishments which usually go with real manhood. Mary of Hungary, daughter of King Philip of Spain, and wife of King Louis of Hungary, was an excellent athlete, a splendid horseback rider, extremely cour- ageous and an excellent military leader. She personally conducted sev- eral wars, with much success, and frequently mingled with her troops on horseback. For a number of years she was governess of the Meth erlands, which office she held with dignity and wisdom. She died ir Spain in 1858.
