THE BEE: OMAHA. FRIDAY, JUNE
ASKS WILSON TO
WITHDRAW ARMY
Mexican Leader Insists That Amer
ican Troop Be Retired to
This Side of the Boarder.
LONG RESUME OF SITUATION
Mexico City, Junf 1. Claiming
that, the word! and protests of the
United State have been entirely in
contradiction of thc'r acts and that in
spite cf protests not to intervene in
the affairs of Mexico soldiers of the
United States are in Mexico with, t
the consent of the Mexican govern
ment and in violation of Mexico s
sovereignty, the Mexican government
now asks for the immediate with
drawal of these troops. The request
is made in a 12,000-word note made
public at the foreign office today,
about noon.
The note recites that the American
troops crossed the border after the
Columbus incident without the per
mission of the Mexican government.
The act was not considered one of
invasion then, solely because the
United States said they had misinter
preted the attitude of the Mexican
government. When the second ex
pedition crossed the line after the
Glenn Springs incident, the note
maintains, the plea that this was done
with the consent of the Mexican con
sul at Del R, Tex., is untenable and
that the art can only be considered
as one of invasion.
Asks Withdrawal at Once.
"The Mexican government there
fore invite the United States to bring
to an end this unsupportable situa
tion" the note concludes and "to '. . -port
its protestations and declaration
of friendship by an immediate with
drawal of American troops."
Maintaining that the protests of
friendship by the United States and
the expressed desire for non-intervention
has been contradicted by the
acts of the Washington government,
the note says the time has arrived
when Washington must declare itself
clearly and unequivocally as to its
future intentions toward Mexico,
After reciting the facts which led
io the first crossing of the frontier by
American troops after the Villa raid
it Columbus, the note insists that in
contradiction of the words of Gen
erals Scott and Funston, another ex
pedition crossed the boundary line.
thus violating all the precepts of in
ternational law ana commuting an act
of invasion.
Still on United States Soil,
"The American government," says
the note, "has admitted that the work
of the expedition which entered alter
the Columbus raid, now is over. But
in spite of this fact American troops
still remain on Mexican soil. To con
tend that political disorder in this
?nt:U?:i
ican military force i in conflict with
the repeated profesion of the Wash
ington government relative to non
interference."
The note points out that much of
the trouble in Mexico is due "to the
attitude of the United States in not
nunishine conspirator in the United
States who have plotted the downfall
ot the present constitutional govern
ment, and to the acts of Washington
in retusing to permit tne snipments
of arms and ammunition to enter I
Mexico."
How Newt Wai Learned.
Taking the matter up as of May
22, the date the note bears, it says
that the Mexican government hat
just been advised that 400 men of
the American army had crossed into
Mexico, the fact being brought to
the attention of the government by a
communication from the commander
of the expedition to the Mexican
commander at Esmeralda, informing
him that he had crossed the line in
accordance with the agreement be-
tween the two government and with
the consent of Mexican consular off i
cials at Del Rio, lex.
clared, cannot assume that the United
States has committed an error a ec
ond time in ordering the crossing
without the consent of the govern
ment of Mexico or that the com
mander of the American troops acted
without due authority upon this occa
sion.
"The explanation given by the
American government in regard to
the crossing of troops at Columbus
never has been satinfactory to the
Mexican government," the communi
cation says, "but the new invasion of
our territory no longer is an isolated
fact and tends to convince the Mexi
can governmen that something more
than a mere error is involved
"This latter act of the American
forces causes new complications for
the Mexican government, increasing
the difficulty oi finding a satisfactory
solution and aMtng to the tenseness
of the international situation. The
Meicn government cannot consider
this lst incident except as an inva
sion of our territory and it is its duty
to request the American government
ti order the immediate withdrawal of
these new forces and to ahtin from
sending any other eipedition cf a
umilit i.atuie.

tr find a solution of the international
confict in which both countries are
involved."
At this point the note reciuests of
the United States government "a more
categorical explanation of its real in
tentions toward Mexico.
To clear the way for such a state
ment, it proposes to sneak the mind
of the Mexican government with en
tire franknets and setting aside "all
Jlomatic euphemism but declaring
it does so hoping that the sensibilities
of the Washington government will
tot be wounded by its words.
It recalls protestations of friendship
by the American government toward
Latin-American countries and par
ticularly toward Mexico, citing Presi
dent Wilsons declaration that the
United States did not intend to inter
fere in the internal affairs of Mexico
or in any way to impair its sovcr-
ignty.
Iliese repeated protestations ai-
I ired, it says, to indicate "an honest
purpose on the part of the govern
ment and people of the United States
not to war on Mexico.
The Mexican government, however.
the note continues, "regret to re-
i1 U . L . . . . . t it. a '
authorities are in absolute
conflict with thea bove statements,
and is constrained to appeal to the
president, the Department of State,
the senate and the American people
to the end that once for all time the
true political tendency of the United
States toward Mexico be defined."
Such a definition, it says, also is
necessary that JLatin America may
appreciate the proper value of the
protests or amity ana fraternity
which have been made to them during
the many years. The argument re
cites the- Columbus expedition, and
states that although admitting
through Gen. Scott that its object had
been accomplished, President Wilson
promise ot withdrawal has not been
complied with. This r.tatemnet fol
lows:
Can't Justify Attitude.
"The causes of any internal political
order which may exist not to with
draw the American troops from Mex
ican territory, however justuted they
may appear, cannot justify the above
attitude, but on the contrary, they
accentuate the discrepancy between
the protests of respect to the sover
eignty of Mexico, and the actual fact
that on account of reasons of internal
policy of the United States a status
should be maintained which is utterly
unjust with regard to the Mexican
republic."
Confict between words and deeds
is shown further, the note asserts, by
the refusal of the United States to
accept limitations as to the number
of troop to cross the frontier under
any reciprocal agreement or the zone
in which they should operate, the
character of the Columbus expedition
was such, tt adds, as to show distrust
toward Mexico and no effort what
ever toward co-operation with Mex
ican troops.
The clash at Tarral Is asserted to
have been due to the secrecy with
which the American military author
ities surround their operations.
"The Columbus expedition," it says.
'has been carried into eftect without
I any spirit of hutnony but on the con
trary under a spirit ot distrust ri our
authorities, as our co-operation was
not only unsought but we wer unin
formed in regard to the military op
iratKn effected."
Evidtnee of Distrust.
As evidence of this distrust the note
rites the furl that the expedition in

influence of the American govern
ment to be felt against the consolida
tion of the present government of
Mexico."
The note cites "the decided sup
port" given at one time by General
Scott and the State department which
it says prolonged civil war many
montns, and the continuous assist
ance rendered by American Catholic
clergymen to their Mexican brothers
who are, it is charged, incessantly
working against the constitutionalist
government. The activities of the
"American interventionist press and
business men" il also referred to.
The American government, the
note says, is either unable or unwill
ing to prevent all of these "works of
conspiracy" against the de facto gov
ernment. Many of the bands of bor
der outlaws, it adds, were "armed and
perhaps also organized" under the
tolerance of Texas authorities, while
well known conspirators who were
arrested have been released under in
significant bond.
The detention of shipments of arms
and ammunition to the Mexican gov
ernment is also arraigned as an un
friendly art for which no frank rea
son has been assigned, This em
bargo, it says, "can nave no other in
terpretation than the United States
wishes to protect itself against the
emergency of a future conflict."
The note does not question the
right of the United States to do this,
but declares: "A frank statement of
its reasons would he preferable to the
frivolous pretext of preventing these
arms and ammunition from falling
into the hands of Villa ban. I.
"The whole embargo matter," it as

and government are sure the Ameri

Mexico, but strong agencies are at
work to produce such a conflict and
it is indispensable that the American
government frankly state its purpose

protestations of amity and the acts
of distrust and aggression on the part
of American military authorities.
"The Mexican government, there

Collier'i Asks Why Trainmen Do Not
Take Their Trouble to the
Commissions.
ARE IN NEED OF MORE CAPITAL
Collier's Weekly in the issue of
June 3 goes to the very basis of the
railroad problem, as it is acutely
brought to public attention through
the demands of the enginemen and
trainmen.
Collier's asks, in effect:
"Why do not the enginemen and
trainmen make their demand of the
Interstate Commerce Commission and
the forty odd State Commissions that
regulate the railroads instead of mak
ing their demand upon the managers
of the railroads themselves?"
The editorial also states:
"Our railroads need a great deal
more capital than our people are now
willing to invest and bankruptcy can
follow from paying inflated wages
just as surely as from paying inflated
dividends.
What Workmen Get.
And the further statement:
"What workmen are to get out of
any punnc utility is mereiy some
share of what that utility is allowed
to Ret out of the public.''
And again the editorial states:
"If that share is not to be deter
mined by regulation then what regu
lation we have is incomplete and in
effective." The editorial in full is as follows:
"The Trainmen And Other Folks."
Recent railroad prosperity has
made possible the demands of the
trainmen for higher wages. These
demands have been made not upon
the bodies which regulate the rail
roads and control rates, viz., the In
terstate Commerce Commission and
the forty-odd State commission, but
directly upon the officers in charge
of these companies. If granted, these
higher wages will become an element
in the costs by which rates must tie
fixed high enough to cover, but the
bodies fixing ratea are not to be con
sulted. The trainmen's organizations
would be in a stronger position as re
gards public opinion it their propo
sals were to be presented directly to
the regulative bodies instead of indi
rectly through officials subject to reg
ulation. In sixteen years the pay of
conductors, engineers, firemen, etc.,
has increased relatively faster than
the pay of other railroad workers. The
trainmen average over $100 per month
and want more. Ths others (not in
cluding officers) average under $60
per month and their chances of get
ting more will be poorer if the pres
ent demands are granted. Now, any
broad adjustment of railroad wages
ought to be fair to all classes of em-

ployes, and it must be remembered
that the station agents who handle
the companies' business at Local
points, and the section foremen who
look after the rails and roadbed over
which all trains must pass, are stead
ily becoming more vital factors in
transportation. The trainmen are not
the whole show. As to the financial
side of this matter, our railroads need
a great deal more capital tnan our
people are now willing to invest, and
bankruptcy can follow from paying in
flated wages just as surely as from
paying ' inflated dividends. What
workmen are to get out of any public
utility is merely some share of what
that utility is allowed to get out of
the public. If that share is not to be
determined by regulation, then what
regulation we haVe is incomplete and
ineffective. The trainmen should
agree to the carriers' demand for ar
bitration; that, at least, will prevent
an unthinkable country-wide strike."
