BRITISH PREPARE ANSWER REPLY TO AMERICAN NOTE OP MARCH »0 PROTESTING AGAINST/ BLOCKADE. Expected That England Will Soon Dlapatch Explanation of the Cause For Her Qlg Blockade. Washington.—lt was stated offi cially that there had been Intimations from Great Britain recently that a re ply might be forthcoming soon to'the American note of March 30 protesting against the illegality of the order in council In Its restri)pUon on noncon traband commerce with Germany through neutral countries. Officials have been preparing an aiiwr to the British notes which pre cedfef the issuance of thfe order In council and covering the -academic prlnelples as they were affected by the law of contraband and continuous voyage. The United States has never admitted the right of the allies to de tain cargoes of .contraband consign ed to neutral porta when efiemy des tination la not proved and several cases still are pending in which that principle is involved. The close rela tion of the order in council, prohibit ing nonco£traband commerce with Germany, to the traffic in contraband articles with neutral countries, bu caused officials to combine all phaseß of these ..questions in. a tingle oat.a which Is expected to be sent as soon j as all data is obtained and when the situation with Germany is ciariQed. The possibility that Germany may sug gest a modus vlvendi whereby sub marine warfare may be abandoned If the allies' order in council were re voked and the usnal laws, of contra band put into effect is one of the con siderations which have delayed the dispatch of the American note to Great Britain until the Germany reply to the. last communication from the United States is at hand. Should a new note from Great Britain arrive In the meantime, the communication now under prepara tion to be sent to the allies would necessarily be modified accordingly and officials were unable to predict Just when some deevlopment in the situation might be expected.

WOMAN'S SUPFRAGI PROM THB VIEWPOINT OP LRADINQ FARMERS. Why should women vote?

It Is the mission of a newpaper to give the news and the action of the Texas Partners' Union In opposing woman's suffrage when that question wne recently before the Texaa legislature la significant as representing the attitude ef the or ganlsed plowmen. We reproduce In pert the argument presented by Hon. W. D. Lewie, preeldent of the Texas rarmers' Union, In oppoelng the bill: "It Is gratifying to nnte that it Is pot the farmer's wife who Is clamoring for the ballot She la too busy trying to make happier homee, mold ing the minds of future eiUsees and sharing with her husband the seres of life to Indulge In political gossip.

ANXIOUS TO SECURE PEACE Vllls-Zapata Convention Willing to Co-operate With other Factiona to End War.' Washington.—The United States Government waa Informed by Fran cisco Charaso, President of the Villa- Zapata convention la Mexico City, that If President Wilson's recent warning to Mexican factiona to com pose their dlfferencee should signify "pressure or threat" the Convention Government- "still harborlag the con science of lta sacrifices, will the dignity of the Mexican people." After declaring a wllllngaees to make peace with the Carranxa fac tion the note says In part: "The Conventlonlat Government does not see, does qot wl»h to see, la the substance of the declarations made by President Wllaon anything more than an advice, a friendly sug gestion to Induce the contending groups to wipe out their dlfferencee aad lead them Into the path to the end pursued by the revolution. Com ing to the declaration that IX we Mex icans can not settle our dlfferenoee within a very short time, the Govern ment of tbe American Onion will And Itself constrained to decide as to what means It shall use to bring It about, the Conventlonlat Government can not understand how President Wilson previously declares in the same jiote that the United States does not desire or claim any right to settle the affairs of Mexico aad more to the same ef fect The same chief of the American Nation made at Indianapolis the fol lowing categorical declarations: "'I am proud to belong to a pow erful Nation which says'that Mexico which we could orush, will enjoy the same liberty In the management of Its affairs as we enjoy. If lam strong I should be ashamed t* dictate to the weak In the measure of my strength. My pride consists in kseplng my strength free and not In oppressing another people with It' "If oontrary to the Interpretation which la the most friendly sense the Conventlonisr Government puts upon President Wilson's declarations, this closing part should signify a denial of the instinctive sympathy generone ly' demonstrated to the Mexican rev olution and should further signify pressure or threat, tbe Conventionist Government still harboring the con science of Its sacriAeca will maintain tbe dignity of the Mextean people. We continue, however, to conjecture that the general idea of the Government of the United Btotes Is to help us In a friendly way to bitog to an end our fratricidal would be for the greatest good of tbe coun try. The government Is ready to bring about by all means consistent with its dignity the fusion of all the contending groups, to initiate all tbe economic, political and social reforms aimed at by tbe revolution and 1 to astabliah a atrong stable government with which all tendencies and all legi timate Interests will flpd the fullest favor and enjoy tbe guarantees which our fundamental law provldea."
