THE NOTE TO CARRANZA. If for any reason whatsoever Car- ranza has failed to understand the position of the United States in re- gard to Mexico, the note which has been sent to the head of the de facto government in that republic removes it henceéforth. The document is a clear and forceful présentation of the situation. It sets forth that this country has ‘never had and does not [ today “~ ‘any designs upon Mexiean territory. It has labored dili€ently to aid -its nelghbor in straightening out its do- _ 7 mestic troubles, but with a small de- “gree of success, and it has tolerated conditions which could have been ~~countenanced on 1o other ground than that of friendship and a desire to see that country restoréed to a peaceful state again. In spite of the fact that thie interests-of tiis c&\:l:t?j Imvte suf- fered severely fromr i acts of law- lesdness ‘which Mexico has mot been able to curb, this government, as the note. points out, “has refrained from aggressive action and sought by ap- peals and through moderate, though explicit demands to impress tipon the de facto government theé seriousness .of the situation and to arouse it to its duty to perform its International ‘obligitions,” but it has not succesded. Rather has Carranza rtesented such efforts and refused to cooperate. in putting down 4 common eénemy, and now Wheén the demiand 'is made that the penitive expedition, which was Sent #s a last fesort to uphold our (xights In Mexico and along the bor- "der, be withdrawn and the threat is made that any further attempt at ad- vance will call forth an attack, it is ‘~time that Carranza was given to un- ; derstand that any such move will lead ."to the gravest consequences. Carranza is given to understand that he is not going to be plaved with ovany longer. There is a decisive tone '“'mbout - the mote, which goes into the ”/entire matter thoroughly, which can- not-be mistaken. It is such as the situation has demanded for some time and it is for the best interests of all concerned that the watchful waiting < ‘policy has thus been abandomed. e SAVE THE INNOCENT. /% While attention is being directed to ~"the saving of the lives of children and the reduction of infant mortality by efforts which are béing made -throughout the country to educate +.mothers in the care of their offsprings, a deplorable sttuation is brought to lght by a report which has been made by a Baltimore physician who is a -, member of the Maryland vice commis. “slon, wherein he points out the great -wloss of life which takes place among voinfants who are taken away from . iheir mothers soon after birth and placed in institutions for one reason ““or another. He shows that in one in- titution 280 out of 3250 admit- ed in one year died, 'and he “glves ad the reason that they were “Beparated from their mothers and the s-hourishment and attention they fte- -.peived was insufficient ‘to keep them alive.
