Mexico City, Sept 2.—President
Carranza's address to congress last
jolght mentioned the fait that the Mex-
ican embassy at Washington had made
representations to the United States
government regarding alleged injus-
tices done Mexicans in the United
States, but declared that “not in all
cases were assurances given that the
* offenders wOuld be punished."
Reference also was made to numer-
ous crossings of the border by Amer-
ican airplanes as well as troops. In
connection with the recent punitive
expedition to find the bandits who
were holding the two American aviat-
ors for ransom, the message said:
“This invasion constitutes a violation
of our rights. Serious and without
motive was thiB violation, which deep-
ly wounded the Mexiacn patriotic feel-
ing." 1
Regarding the Monroe Doctrine, he
said that .Mexico does net recognize
it, “inasmuch as it established with-
out violation of all the peoples of
America a criterion and solution in
which they were not consulted, and
because the doctrine snmcked of sov-
ereignty over Mexico and constituted
a forcible guardianship over all na-
tions of the American hemisphere.”

conditions. They express the hope
that no new strikes will be ordered ex-
cept to relievp workers from “intoler-
able oppression.” *
The committee was appointed by
James P. Holland, president of the
federation on July 29, and made its re-
port after conferring with representa-
, tives of industrial, commercial, manu-
facturing, financial, transportation and
other interests with a view to devising
plans to lower the cost of living.
Business men, it is explained, were
in a state of apprehension due to rep-
idly changing conditions since the
signing of the armistice and “indus-
try had been disturbed and dislocated
to a degree never before experienced.”
"Your committee is convinced,"
says the report, "that this condition
Is wrong and cannot be permitted to
continue unless we—and by ‘we’ your
committee means not labor alone but
the people of the whole United States
wish to invite a disaster unparallfed in
history. The people must be given a
breathing spell. There must be a sus-
pension of struggling for class and
party advantage. All Americans must
bend their bdck to the oars and pull
steady against the storm-tossed waters
until our boat again rides safely on
the placid sea of prosperity.”
Continuing, the report says:
“As a result of President Wilson’s
appeal backed .by the attitude of Sam-
uel Goinpers, president of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, and the lead-
ers of the railway brotherhoods, -the
threatened railroad strike was averted
and the country spared a terrible tragi
edy.
“On every hand there are strikes
and threats of strikes. Most of these
disturbances have been provoked by
radical agitators who have not the in-
ierests of the toilers at heart, but who
seek to promote industrial warfare for
the purpose of destroying our present
economic system and substituting in-
dustrial ownership by the proletariat!'
Fortunately the same leaders of or-
ganized labor have, after a short per-
iod, succeeded in regaining control of
their temporarily rebellious union and
restoring orderly procedure under the
laws and rules of the American Fede-
ration of Labor.
"The conduct of men who* call them-
selves loyal supporters of trade un-
ionism in breaking away from the au-
thority of their duly acredited of Heals
and inaugurating uncalled for, un-
necessary and unauthorized strikes
should at all times be severely con-
demned and the agitators who foment
such outbreaks should be visited with
the severest penalties possible under
trad a union rules. For trade unions
to permit themselves to be brought
under the influence of lawless agita-
tors at this time of national stress is
treason not only to the principles of
trade unionism but to the Unittd
States of America. It would be not
too severe a punishment to revoke the
American Federation of Labor char,
ters of such unions and put them aside
from decent organised labor.
“Your committee is of the opinion
that President Wilson’s reasoning bas-
ed on sound economic principles and
that organised labor owes a duty to
the President to give him whole-heart-
ed assistance in his efforts to reduce
the cost of living and place the nation
on a strong business basis. We eye

ROOSEVELT INVITED TO

London, Sept. 3.—Political activity
evidently will be resumed long before
parliament reassembles in October.
Interest now centers about the new
campaign by newspapers which is
reminiscent of the one which over-
threw the Asquith government, and
which seeks to make Andrew Bonar
Law, government leader in the house
of commons, the scapegoat for the
government of all mistakes and exon-
erate Lloyd George, on the ground
that Bonar Law virtually was acting
premier in Londoh while Lloyd George
was engaged at the peace conference
in Paris. The aim seems to be to dis-
credit the conservative section of the
government and prepare for the pos-
sibility, after the next election, of
fomrlng a labor cabinet of which
Lloyd George could assume leader-
ship.
