It it does not fix houds o does it provide for eight hours as the | standard of a day? Then he says the law only fixes wages. Well, of course the law says an eight hour day sh | be the standard by which wages ore | measured, fixes wages to that extent. Then Mr. Hughes says that this luw provides that the trainmen shall get ten hours’ pay for an eight hour cay. “Mr. Hughes says the president did not study this question . Well, if all that is known on the subject is what ir. Hughes knows, the would not have to study it. Mr. Hughes says that the men are going to be paid a ten hour day for eight hours' work The only trouble I find with Mr. Hughes is that all he studied in this railroad problem was what the railroad companies told him. I do not | ' mean that he did that conscious!y { and religiously, because I believe that | men in public life should speak fairly | and not dishonestly impugn the mo- tives of the leader of the opposition. | But I do mean this, that if Mr. Hughes | had asked the trainmen some ques- | {ions they would have given him a lot | of illuminating information, because the trainmen asked only two things. “First, they asked for an eight hour day, and then they asked that they be | paid time and a half for overtime if the railroads should compel them to work over the eight hours. Ts that clear An eight hour day and time and a half for every hour over time. | Then when the discussion got hot, the men conceded their demand for time | and a half for overtime in order fto reach a satisfactory settlement at the hands of the president of the United States. But the railroads conceded nothing. And when Mr. Hughes says that the men are going to get ten | hours' pay for pight hours' work he has not understood, or heard, of this very interesting fact, that hereafter the trainmen are to do ten hours’ worlc in eight hours’ time. Do you know that the railroad regulations prescrit that you may carry freight one hun- dred miles in five hours with safety? And of course If you carry it in eight hours, you carry it that much safer. But this law does a thing that Mr. Hughes has not even thought of. It makes it possible for these men to do the same work in eight hours that they did in ten, and it makes it possi- ble for you and me to get our freight two hours faster. “That idea hasn't dawned on Mr. Hughes—the interesting circumstance that the consuming public will get its freight quicker under the new eight hour law. Then Mr. Hughes said this interesting thing that this was not a good eight hour Jaw because thero wasn't any penalty which would pre- vent a man from working more than eight hours. I have not been on the United States Supreme Court, but I know that any law which would tell you or me, if well and rested, that we could not work more than cight hours would probably be uncon- stitutional. And I wouldn't think of engaging In a constitutional discus- slon with Mr. Hughes except bn such palpable point but if any law told you or me that we could not work more than eight hours ,the law would be ungonstitutional. But the pen- alty in the law should be and s against the railroads, that the railroad companies may not work the men more than eight if the men are not fit and rested or don't want to work. Then Mr. Hughes says that ultimately the public would have to pay the cost. Why should the public pay the cost? When the railroads started this discussion they said it would cost one hundred million dollars to put into effect the eight hour law, and in a speech in New York I said it would cost no such sum. They de- nied my statement. But when the railroad presidents went to Washinz- ton, after one talk with the president, they said it would cost fifty million and so 1 was only a liar by fifty mil- | llon dollars. And the fact of the matter is that this fifty million dol- lars is based on the hypothesis that there will necessarily be as much overtime with'an eight hour day s with ten hour day. But if move freight quicker and in cight hours than you did in ten hours, you have not so much overtime to pa for. But that interesting circum- ance made no appeal to Mr, Hughes. Why should the public pay? If it costs one or twenty million dollars to install an eight hour day as a sound economic proposition why should we, the public, be made to pay additional freight rates to the railroads, when the figures of the rail- roads in the month of January of this year, railroads covering ninety per cent, of the mileage of the country show the roads made sixty-five mil- llon dollars profit above expenses? This multiplied by twelve is nearly nine hundred million dollars profit fox the year. 1If it be a sound economic proposition, and If it be justice to | the train men, and if it be nec ry | for the safety of passengers that we have the eight hour law, and for the | more prompt delivery of freight, then | whatever it costs shall be paid, not out of the pockets of the American people, but out of the tremendous profits of the railroad companies of ‘America. “And the only reason strike in this country was not be- cause as Mr. Hughes says, there wa: | no emergenc: 1 do not know where | Mr. Hughes was when the emergency | came but I know where 1 was. I | was in the Rocky Mountains, and even I, away two days on horseback from civilization, heard there was threatened strike. ~ Was there emergency when every man, woman | and child, every business man, big | and small, and every cash register in America would have been vitally af- fected by a nation-wide railroad strike? ~ Was that no emergency? “The first proposition before president of the Urited States the interests of the nation was to avert a strike, and to avert it by honorable means, and when the rail- eight savs cight work a we had no a an the in president | you' | why | roads fused to concede anything be- cause certain Wall street interests ainst President Wilson wouldn't le him get the credit of an industrial victory, the law was passed by con- sress, the strike was averted, and was shown that we had a government which was free to serve the people in a great cri Mexico. “Mexico was no child of ours. The previous republican administrations were prolific with their children—with these problematic children; and they left ‘quite a number them on our door step, not so much in a spirit heritage as in a spirit of “inaptitude,” and so we inherited the Mexican prob- lem. And if I only had as much in- formation on the subject Hughes has gotten from Henry Wilson, 1 wouldn't discuss the tion. “And yet this problem at our doors in the republic to the south of us has been of great to and of untold suffering to the people of Me For eight months at the beginning of the present ad- ministration, 1 was assistant secretary of state in Washington in close and active touch with the problems Mexico and Latin America, and up t» the recognition of Carranza, 1 s as Lane ques- us an intermediary chosen by the repre- | | those sentative of the bishops of the Mex- ican Catholic church, and satisfactory to the president, for the discussion of certain phases of the Mexican prob- lem affecting the right of religlous worship in Mexico. I make these statements merely that you may know that T have a right to speak with au- thority on the Mexican question, “Porforio Diaz had bheen the handed ruler of Mexico for thirty years and because the iron- over great mass of the Mexican people had been | deprived not only of education, prop- erty and liberty, but were even in want of bread, a revolutionary move- ment was successful which drove Diaz out of power and ciected Francesco Madero the constitutional president of Mexico. To clearly understand the economic conditions of Mexico, it is necessary to state that though there are sixteen million people in that country, through usurpation and ag- gression sixty thousand people own all the land. After he was chosen presi- dent, Madero was advised by his friends to execute a number of Diaz's | former followers and among them Huerta, but Madero was a Kkindly man, said there had been too much killing in Mexico and that he would try to win his enemies to the service of their country. As a result Huerta wasg put in command of the federal troops guarding the capital city of Mexico. And history records no more dastardly act of treachery against his benefactor than that perpetrated when Huerta seized the government of Mexico and placed President Ma- dero and Vice President Suarez in jail, Shortly after the arrest, in the dead of night, while Madero was belng moved from one jail to another by Huerta soldiers, he was assassinated. Huerta as the head of the arm: could easily have prevented this out- rage, and was directly responsible for the maurder of the legitimate presi- dent who represented the republican hopes of the Mexican people. Huerta then impudently sent a message to the government at Washington, “I have overthrown the government,” ana sked for our moral support and rec- ognition. “All this happened at the last two months of President Taft's adminis- tration. Henry Lane Wilson an ap- pointee of the last Republican admin- ration was our ambassador to Mex- ico. He urged President Taft to rec- ognize Huerta, and then the present administration came into power. Wae soon found out that Ambassador Wil- son was taking active sides with Huerta and his faction, when as an American ambassador he should have taken no part in l\lcxi(l‘an politics. And it soon became known to Am- ba dor Wilson that the present ad- ministration did not intend to retain him. The representatives of the for- eign powers were told falsely and with a knowledge of the falsehood, that this government was going to recognize Huerta. Acting on this be- lief they gave their recognition to Huerta, but later on, when they found they had been misled, this withdrew their recognition. Tt was impossible to displace Henry Lane Wilson, the mischief-maker, because if we sent a new diplomatic representative, that act would be a recognition of Huerta. “In facing this first problem, our Government had to consider not merely Mexico, but all Latin-Amer- ica. For years European and Amer- ican capital had been unsafe in many of the Latin-American republics be- cause of the constant recurrence of revolutions. Some treacherous adven- turer like Huerta would suddenly rise up, seize by force the power of the government, murder the legitimately chosen president of the country, and then ask for the moral support and recognition of the American people, and in order to discourage such reve- lutions, to inspire peace and order on the continent to preserve the liberties of the Mexican people which Huerta had usurped and to set this standard that never again would the people of this country recognize the claims of any despot on this continent, who tried to destroy republican institutions by murder and assassination, Presi- dent Wilson refused to recognize Huerta. The president’s attitude re- ceived almost unanimous approval from the press and pulpit of the country, and I'remember that one of the three Catholic Cardinals of the United States said to me, “‘President Wilson's refusal to recognize Huerta was an act of statesmanship based on high moral ground.” “General Carranza was a governor of one of the Provinces of Mexico. He was the first to proclaim the acts of Huerta a usurpation of the govern- ment of Mexico. Villa and Zapatn, with their followers, including thou- sands upon thousands of Mexicans who had been driven off their lands in the despotic days of Diaz, joined Carranza, and altogether formed the constitutionalists of revolutionary forces, “There were only two things for | United it | of | | vene Mr. | very | inconvenienca | of | | to respect the representatives of the ' | za for Wilson fight, pressure and to do achieve ident = ue or diplomatic with the army States.

In this situation 1 recall that Nelson O’Shaunessy, whose wife is now busily engaged criticising the present administration on the Mexican question, because her husband was not made a minister abroad—O'Shaunessy told me at least a dozen times that he never believed Huerta should have been rec- ognized. I the meantime Huerta, angered by the president's refusal of recognition, was heaping continued insults on our government which cul- minated In the arrest of a boatload of American sailors at Tampico. Ad- miral Mayo, the head of the fleet in waters and the present senior admiral of the American Navy, with- out consulting the président or the navy department, and acting entirely within his rights as an American ad- | miral, demanded that the sailors be released, that apology he made, and that the American flag he saluted i reparation for the insult.
