was stated. II fighting has not already
The Mexican embassy has received
accounts Of clashes along the border,
but In the absence Of official confirma-
ton Of actual fighting between Mex
leans and Guatemalans. II inclined to
explain the reports, as resulting from
conflicts between troops .of, the pro
visional Guatemalan government, ana
members Of tho so-called "rUnionista"
faction who are endeavorins to escape
into Mexico. . =
Reports, that war has been declared
between Mexico and Guatemala were
not credited by Mexican officials here.
A declaration Of war by Mexico would
be impossible, 1t was stated, inasmuch
as the Mexican congress- 10 not now
In session and neither the president
nor the permanent committee of con-
gress has authority to declare war. II
was admitted, however, that a state
Of war might easily be brought about
as q result of the determined, attitude
President Obregon has taken toward
the announced intention Of the
Guatemalan provisional president to
pursue 'unionistas" into Il Mexican
territory. .-......
Reports from Mexico City indicate
In rapidly increasing ill-feeling between
the two countries, which has been
materially augmented by the action Of
the Mexican chamber Of deputies Just
before adjournment In denouncing the

Northern Virginia was today buried
under the worst fall Of snow since

Many happy returns of the day, Uncle Sam,
Many happy returns of the day
Though one of your humblest of nephews am,
I've dropped in this morning to say
Many happy returns of the day, and to pray
That you will be here when the world has grown gray.
This is your birthday, the gft-gving time
When friendship and love have full sway,
And so am wishing for you in this rhyme
Many happy returns of the day.
God bless you and keep you, oh Country of mine,
God bless the blue field where your stars brightly shine
] would might bring you rich treasures Of gold
AS my pledge of devotion to you,
But bring you the wish you shall never grow old,
God grant that my wish may true,
And greet you once more in the old-fashoned way,
Uncle Sam, many happy returns of the day!
