presidency which he gave out he dsclains

"There and likely be in the future thar
enough candidates for every office but think there not
enough women either maintaining position OF nde
pendnce such that they can tell the truth to the country unbiased
by personal partisan interest Such position OF independence
hope to maintain.
Justice Cars statement his retirement has been the SUBJ

But nevertheless, perhaps be OF service in aiding in

There IS nothing partisan IN this aim not T partisan in the

We are reminded that large number of republicans in

whether he pleaded guilty TO all the
charges made against him by the advo-
cate general. Mohandas *. Gandhi, the
non-co-operationist leader. replied in the
affirmative.
The advocate general pointed out that
the articles of Gandhi printed in Young
India formed merely part Of the cam
paign to spread disaffecton openly, to
Systematically render government impos-
sible and to bring about the overthrow
of the government. He contended that
the writings of Gandhi were not those
of an uneducated or obscure man. It
was true that the articles insisted on
non-violence, but he asked what was the
value of this IF you incessaDtly teach
disaffection against the government and
openly seek to instigate others to over
throw TT"
Thereupon GandhI made a long state
ment in which he admitted that teaching
disaffectfon against the existing system
of government had become almost pas
sion with him. He declared he took all
the blame for the disorders in Madras,
Bombay and Chauvi ChauE( but ne add
ed that If he were liberated ne would
keep UP his work. Non-vioience was the
first and last article of his faith he bore
no fll-will against any single admins
traitor nor any disaffection towards the
kings person.

RECOGNITION OF MEXICO
BY THE U. S. PROBABLE

Washington, March 10 (By the A. P.)
Personal exchanges between President
Harding and President Obregon looking
to recognition of Mexico by the United
States are in progress, it was disclosed
today in high administration circles
American o'f"ials believe early recogni-
ton is probable.
The only point of difference between
the two executives, it was declared. is
the desire Of President Harding to make
formal recognition Of Mexico coincident
with the signing Of a treaty pledging the
southern republic to protect American
rights within It's borders, whereas the
Mexican president would like the formal
recognition to precede the treaty,
The correspondence, which has been
going On for some time, is described as
having been Of a most cordial character.
The American government was said to
dc IRE protection for American rights
against the retroactive clauses Of their
constitution in treaty form. Persons ia
miliar with Mexican jurisprud ence de-
clare that five decisions by the Mexican
supreme court are necessary 20 establish
q prcceden. There has been one decision
favorable TO American interests On the
point at issue.
The exchanges with the Mexican pres
ident were said not to have been the
only International correspondence carried
on by Mr. Harding since his election.
Three European potentateS 4 was de-
clared, have written personal letters 10
/ the president, as well as one Soutl,
American president. The nature Of the
| letters was not disclosed,
