Al Were Involved in British Canteen Scandals. o NO ENCOURAGEMENT GIVEN Chief Executive Unable to See Any Reason Why Laws Regulating Big Business Should Not Be Enacted Promptly and End Present Un- certainty. ‘Washington, May 29.—Officers of the National Implement and Vehicle association, the Ohio Manufacturers’ agsociation and the Illinois Manufac- turers’ association called on Presi- dent Wilson and petitioned, in the name of their associations, that all legislation affecting the business world, exc"ept the trade commission bill, be withheld until a trade com- mission could look thoroughly into the business situation and make a re- port on which congress might enact laws satisfactory to manufacturers and employes. The president gave no assurance that he could change the present plan, which contemplates passage of the Clayton anti-trust act. The petition presented to the presi- dent stated that “business is hesitat- ing,” that “the unemployed are num- bered in the hundreds of thousands,” and “abundant capital awaits invest- ment.” White House Statement. The following statement was given out at the White House: “The president said in reply to the delegation that in his judgment noth- ing is more dangerous for business than uncertainty; that it has become evident through a long series of years that a policy such .as the Democratic party is p ning is absolutely neces- sary to satisfy the conscience of the country and its perception of the pre- vailing conditions of business, and that it is a great deal better to do the thing moderately and soberly now than to wait until more radical forces have accumulated. “The president also said that while he is aware of present depression of business, there is abundant evidence that it was merely psychological.” TOSEARCH MORGAN RECORDY Interstate Commerce Commission Ex- aminers Begin Work. New York, May 29.—Four examin- ers of the interstate commerce com- mission arrived at the offices of J. P.

Though it is un- derstood that the examiners will have a free hand so far as the New Haven records are concerned counsel for the has insisted that there be no “fishing expedition.” e formal inquiry into the New ven matter will be resumed at Washington next Mcenday. YOUNG WIFE GIVEN DIVORCE Butte Society Girl Claims Marriage Was Forced.

SALVADOR STAYS NEUTRAL Reports of Partisanship for Mexico Given Absolute Denial. San Salvador, May 29.—The state- ment that the people of Salvador are raising a fund to assist Mexico in case of war with the United States and that 10,000 Salvadoreans and Hondurans had offered their services to the Mexican army, based on an al- leged report of the Mexican minister here to the Mexican foreign office, is absolutely without foundation. The announcement is made that Sal- vador has taken a strictly neutral attitude. Unwritten Law Plea Fails. Chardon, O., May 29.—Ernest O. Zimmer was found guilty of murder in the second degres in connection with the shooting of William Xggle- ten, a neighbor iarmer, Jan. 17. Zim- mer's defense was the unwritten law.

Chicago, May 29.—Medill McCor- mick of Chicago, who has just re- turned from Vera Cruz and Mexico Ci‘ty, where he went as correspondent of several newspapers, gave his im- pression of conditions in Mexico in an address before the Chicago Asso- ciation of Commerce. Mr. McCormick said: : “Even if the Niagara peace confer- ence is successful in all its mediation aims, even if the recommended land reforms are pushed to satisfactory completion, even if a capable provi- sional government succeeds in hold- ing fair elections throughout the land, still there is reason to fear that in the next decade the problem of Mex- ico will prove too difficult to be solved b7 the Mexicans alone without further bloodshed. A prosperity boom in Mex- ico, the dream of countless Amer- icans, can never come until perma- nent peace is assured.” One of the most serious of Amer- ican deficiencies in attempting to handle the Mexican situation is our ignorhnce of Mexico psychology, ac- cording to McCormick, who indicated that in our future dealing with for- elgn lands the psychologist should follow the flag.
