ObregOn's Task
Seattle Times
to-one shot

The world and, in particular, the United States,
Will watch with keen interest the development
in Mexican affairs.
The overthrow of Carranza was only the first of
the important tasks devolving upon those who hope
to promote the prosperity of the Southern Republic
by setting up progressive and intelligent regime.
Protected by the United States, through the Mon
doctrine the neighborng nation will be afford
tiny according to the genius of its people
This will be its last chance. Unless it makes
good now, it is almost inevitable that the United
States will be compelled to intervene.
This country cannot permit the indefinite
tinuance of of anarchy on its southern border
it cannot forever forbid Europe from meddling in
Mexican affairs if unprepared do something it
self
While, normally, the Monroe Doctrine involves
nothing than the protection of New World Re
publics from foreign aggression, the Panama
Nicaragua and Haiti sufficient proof that it
also may, occasion, involve the unpleasant duty
OF protecting foreign interests from unjustifiabe
cal aggression o. hopeessy incompetent local gov
eminent.
Obregon has demonstrated the soldiery qualities
Of courage and decision. If he combine these
qualities with an aptitude for civil administration
he will relieve the United States onerous and
very unpleasant duty of intervening in Mexican
fairs.

A PROGRESSIVE POLICY

The newly appointed President of the Alask,
Road Commission Col James G. Seese. will come
Alaska with enviab,e r. putaton made an
officer OF the Engineer Corps of the Regular Army
Those who know him familiar with his
work say that he is ranked Of the most effc-
lent of American engineers and such he will un-
dOubtedy make capable head for the Federal Road
building organization
Those Alaskans who have and conferred with
Col j. C. Gotwals the present President of the Com
mission, will probably regret that he is to
inue in that position and at the time be graft
fled that he is to remain it. In fact Engineer
Officer of the Commission he will be brought more
closely in touch with Alaskans generally than would
have been the otherwise.
Although new man on the job and in the coun-
try Colonel Gotwas wherever has been in the
Territory official duties, by his frankness talk
ing road matters the broadness of his vision
in dealing with transportation problems confront
ing all sections, has in short time,
a large measure of confidence from Alaskans whom
he has met that promises well for harmonious work
ing agreements between the Federal road building
authorities and the people of the Territory This
policy has brought him into contact with people jim
all walks of life in the towns he has visited result
ing in informal and friendly talks in which heard
the viewpoint of the settler, farmer, miner, pros
pector merchant and others interested forecasting
the focalizing of divergent interests into a united
font in concerted effort for real highway building
Everywhere he has been he stated plainly the
desire for and need of the Alaska Road Commission
for support from Alaskans it's requests to Con-
gress for funds with which to carry it's projects
AT the very outset he has realized that the organ
cation which he headed could realize the fullest
measure of if it had combat factional in
terests Alaska Road Commission officials in the
past at times have been compelled to make their
fights almost unaided and sometimes against bitter
opposition for their appropriations. Colonel Cot
walls seeks to avoid this by taking the people into
his confidence and presenting them definite
ton, 1t is hoped and expected that his successor
will continue for the good of Alaska the policy adopt
ed by Col Gotwals and carry it forward to ultimate

ANNULLING WARTIME POWERS

The joint resolution put through Congress re-
pealfng some sixty laws comforting extraordinary
powers the executive branch of the Government is
one that might easily have been passed several
months ago had it been the wish of the party in
power to enact such legislation Tactics employed
by its leaders throughout the entire session seem to
justify the assertion that there was very little real
desire to take the step until the possible minute
In almost continuous sitting for more than a year
not until the final day its second session did the
sixy-Stxh Congress apparently wake up to the fact
that the country in need release from wartime
legislation and restrictions
1t pretended to attempt this by means of the
san vote and promptly vetoed by President Wilson
prised at the veto, Certainly they were given due
debating the measure would be but wasted time
Inc main object OF the resolution to remove
wartime restrictions but try to turn to partisan
advantage the failure of the majority party to ratfy
the treaty with Germany. 1t failed. was known
from the very beginning it must for the reason
that the treaty opponents attempted to go beyond
the express powers Congress
In passing the joint resolution repeating practi-
cally all wartime legislation, 1t admits its error
Had the Republican party been convinced of its
ability to go before the people in the election
November and prove to the voters that in passing
the Knox peace resolution it had made an honest
and sincere effort to repeal such restrictions the
final resolution would have been unnecessary and
would have never been introduced In attempting to
put the Administration in a hole, II fell into one
itself and took the only way left to get out.

Luke McLuke Says

Never give a married man advice
He gets more of it at home than he
knows what to do with.
The man who kicks in with a
lines of assistance does more than
he man who gives a million dollars
worth of advice
A fall does not jar a girl as much
rs it would if she wasn't wearing
her best stockings when it happened
When "a married man gets so that
here isn't a button left on his under
wear his wife hasn't time to sew
hem on, but she has time to bawl
aim out for using all of her safety
pins.
Another Damli! Once upon a time
there was a woman who was so alb
sent minded that she came home
from a bargain sale with some money
left.
They claim that a woman has
more sense than a man But a man
doesn't go to a ten-cent store when
he wants to buy jewelry.
And when Nature gives a woman
a Horse Face she doesn's get much
consolation out of the fact that Ma
-ure also gave her Horse Sense.
About the worst thing that can
happen to a man is for him to get
he idea that it isn't Dignified to
grin once in a while.

Illinois Favored
 To Win Big Ten''
 Track-Field Meet

ANN ARBOR, Mich, June 4.-Track stars from A midwest universities and colleges and the crack five-man team from the University of California will compete for athletic supremacy on Ferry field here tomorrow in the finals for the western conference outdoor track and field championships.
 Trials in the running board jump, quarter and half-mile runs and the discus and javelin throws were held this afternoon, narrowing the field of contestants down to a record breaking list of 375 starters. The meet promises to be one of the greatest in the history of the western conference "big ten, as the athletes realize their perform ance will be taken into consideration by the American Olympic committee in making selections for the team thai will carry the colors of America in the Olympic games at Antwerp next Au- gust.
 Popular choice for first honors in the meet tonight simmered down to the well-balanced University of Illinois team, with the University of California squad figured as a dark horse and Wisconsin a dangerous contender.

WHITE SOX PLAY AT TEMPE E; BOTH
 NON 1ST GAMES

Manager Cass and his White Sox will be entertained at Tempe Sunday aft ernoon in the second game of the Gen. traI Arizona league schedule. Inei- dentally it will be the second meeting between the two clubs this season. the Tempeans taking the first game sev eral weeks ago in a sensational ninth inning rally
 The outcome of the Tempe White Sox battle will be watched by fans throughout the valley, but both teams won their opening games last Sunday. Tempe giving the strong Casa Grande team it's first defeat of the season on the home lot and the White Sox win ming from Mesa in Phoenix.
 Both clubs have been playing good ball in their last few starts and real exhibition is expected. Big Jack Deam will probably be nominated for the hurling duties by Manager Cass if his arm is in shape. Otherwise, the squad $ port sider, Brawner, will assume the hurling duties.
 Stewart, the Tempe sensation. is practically certain to start the game for the southsiders. This boy is re- garded as one of the best fingers in the state and his work as member of the University of Arizona nine was an important factor in the Wildcats $ winning the intercollegiate champion ship of the southwest.
 Stewards work against Casa Grande last Sunday stamps him as a mound artist of the first rank. The previous week, he hurled fine ball against the Oilers at Eastlake park. only to be beaten when his team made costly CT TOTS behind him. Two of the Six CT TOTS chall1ed against Tempe, however, were made by Stewart himself.

COTTON PLAYERS
 MAKE DEBUT IN AT MESA

The Southwest Cotton company base
 ball team will make it's debute in the
 Central Arizona league Sunday after
 noon, journeying to Mesa to do battle
 with the fast going Gateway city club.
 Volkman's squad starts with a slight handicap, being charged with one de-
 feat before it plays it's first game. This
 IS due to the fact that the squad re-
 places the Superior team, which was beaten last Sunday by Manager Kel= ler's Oilers. To mark off this game would be to disrupt the entire schedule, so it has been agreed that the team
 will assume the defeat to keep the standing right
 If Mesa expects a, walkaway in Sum- days battle it is due for an awakening, for the Cotton squad is nifty little organization of ball tossers. Several changes have been made in the team lineup during the past few weeks and with the addition of Ed Molina, an Indian hurler, the team looks as strong on paper as any club in the valley. Mesa had a little hard luck in its opening game against the White Sox ! last Sunday, but changes have been
 made to strengthen the outfield and one of the infield positions, with re- suit that Gateway City fans are prom l ised faster ball in he games follow. Incidentally, Manager Rice's squad boasts the fastest keystone pair in the | league in Reynolds at short and Clar- ence Butler at second. These players are as nifty pair as will be seen in any league when it comes to fielding and what's more, they can both hit.
 Butler is probably one of the best hit
 ters in the league and on the bases, he's the Ty Cobb of the circuit. Both of these boys will bear watching this season.
 Lefty Lush will probably start Sun days game against the Cotton team
 with Molina opposing.

 The Preliminaries The first bout between Rusty Ling and Lanky Jean was all to the good. The kids have developed wonderfully since their last public appearance, and they put up a wonderful little go. The first knockdOwn between two midgets occurred when Rusty was sat forclbly on the canvas by Lanky Jean. The kids are good little sports and in few years will be giving good accounts of themselves in faster and heavier com pany.
