WASHINGTON. Jan. 11.-With
Washington still ringing today with
President Coolidge s charges to
congress that Mexican officials ar
aiding the Nicaraguan revolution
endangering American interests, al
eyes turned toward Mexico.
"HWhat will the Mexican govern
ment say now-and what will IT
do?' was the question one heard
in the congressional lobbies, at the
foreign embassies and among ad-
ministration officials.
While opponents Of the admins
tration s policy in occupying Nlca-
ragua insisted the president should
have submitted his charges to Mex
leo for answer before indicting that
country before thc world, everyone
admitted that President Gales
must answer now.
Basing their prediction on three
press denials previously made by
Gales, many expect him to deny
again that his government has had
any official connection with the
Nicaraguan Liberal rebels except to
recognize them as the only constitu-
tional regime.
He is expected also to reply to
President Coolidge S charges, which
do not directly implicate his govern
ment, that the United States re-
fuses to take responsibility for ac-
tivities of its reserve officers and
that it too has failed to stop III
the past illegal American gun run
ming to China, Mexico and Nlcara-
qua.
Administration officials were in
clined to discount in advance these
replies. They insist that the alleg-
ed menace to American interests
would not exist in Nicaragua with
out Mexican support, and they are
determined to put n quick stop to
that support regardless of argument
and almost at any cost.
1t was regarded as significant

Then too. there are movies that are

places this coin itself is sufficient TO

a well known portrait painter.
