Outlaws Arc Now Garbing Them- selves In the Outfit Of the Ku Klux Klan, Report States.

Mexico City, Feb. 2.-The dress of the ku klux Klan was copied by four hold-up men who, on recent Sun day afternoon, attacked various par ties of automobilists driving out to visit the famous Cacahuamilpa caves in the state of Morelos. It was on this road that the A. Bruce Bielaski party was held up last June, result ing in the Kidnapping of the former head of the bureau of investigation of the department of justice of the United States.
 The attackers were thorough in their work, even helping themselves to cigarettes and matches but withal they were so genial and courteous that one woman victim said later she rather enjoyed the experience. The men spoke English and called atten- ton to the fact that they wore ku Klux regalia.

Europe at present Is low, the belief
prevails that in a few years America
win be doing a larger business with
Europe and that to be on the saLe
side the American government ougnt
to complete new treaties Wherever
possible assuring American citlzens
of equitable treatment.
1t will take months and possibly
years to complete negotiations anu
get the necessary ratifications by the
Legislative bodies of the various coun-
tries concerned, but this, of course, Is
no deterrent. as a treaty is expecfeo
to cover a long period of years. the
revision of existing pacts by the
American government is really an
indication of how important are the
changes in modern commercial Ire.
Inland transportation has been de-
veloped to a great extent and coun-
tries which at one time had little
connection with the sea can now be
classed virtually as maritime powers
because the war has given them an
outlet to a port. In all the treaties
there is more or less the same OBJ
jective, equal treatment for American
citizens on a parity with the treat
ment given by any government to the
nations most favored by them.

TRADE TREATIES
Policy of Pact-Making En-
barked on to Bring Agree

by DAVID LAWRENCE.

The United States government has
embarked upon policy of treaty
making with the various nations of
Europe which, while without political
Importance, will have an important
bearing on the future trade and COM
merce Of America.
Practically all of the commercial
treaties with Europe were written
decades ago when conditions under
which trade was conducted differed
materially from those under which
business is carried on today. The
introduction of numerous problems by
the great war, together with the fact
that the map of Europe has been
practically rearranged, and that coun-'
tries are in existence now which were
previously under another domination,
make it necessary to have new COM
mercia1 agreements.
The announcement that new COM
mercial treaty is being negotiated
with Germany must be taken in. con-
