NEWS REVIEW OF : MEN! EVENTS \ Revolution in Mexico Puts an End | to the Regime of President Carranza. i 'QBREGON MAY SUCKED HIM {Lodge to Be "Keynoter" for Repub , llcan Convention—Hitchcock'* At tack on Knox Peace Resolution— } Senator France Offer* Himaelf aa G. O. P. Dark Horae. By EDWARD W. PICKARD. ( At this writing It seema certain that | the reign of Carranza In Mexico has I come to an end. Success has crowned I the efforts of the leaders of the revolt [which. In tfie words of General Obre j gon, "was necessary to liberate the | country from a regime which was ; breaking down the Intellectual and ma terial life of the people and which iwas violating laws." Abandoning his [capital, the president sought to reach [the coast In the vicinity of Vera Cruz,' I his probable intention being to take 'ship for Europe with government funds (amounting to about $13,600,000. His .trains were stopped short of Apizaco, fbut he and his followers made their ;way some thirty-flve miles further, [lnto the state of Puebla. There they 'were surrounded by the rebel forces, .and at last reports were fighting des- j perately, The revolutionists were de termined to capture the president and those commanders who remained loyal to him, and the escape of the fugi tives appeared Impossible. General Trevlno, one of the leaders of the re volt, hurried to the scene for the pur pose of protecting the life of Car ranza, for he and his conferees desire as little blood-letting as may he. It was reported tliat the rebels already had captured Carrnnza's treasure. In other parts of the republic op position to the revolution ceased and the troops and towns quietly give In their adherence to the new regime.' General de la Huerta, the provisional president, was busy establishing a temporary government and the federal legislative and judicial authorities were urged to continue In the perform ance of tbelr duties, being assured of protection. The rebel leaders hope It will be pos sible to hold an election late In July in accordance with the Mexican law, and It Is believed that at that time General Obregon will be chosen head of the republic, as he Is considered the real bead of the revolution. There are other candidates, however, and all of themlbeem desirous that the peo ple be permitted to name their choice. The government at Washington Is alert and all necessary steps have been taken to protect American lives nnd In terests, but It Is not thought now that the warships and marines sent south will lie called on for any action. The United States presumably will deal with the revolutionists as the de facto government, but It was stated In Wash ington that until Carranza was cap ' tured or escaped from the country he j mast still be technically considered to be the president A number of loyal commanders and many other ref ugee* have been permitted by the rebel authorities and the United State* to cross the border Into Texas. There • la talk among them of organizing a counter-revolution, and of alleged dls-" senslon among the leaders of the re bellion, bat all this is to be taken with reservation. Mr. Wilson's Oregon letter was i taken by som« as a covert attack on i Senator Chamberlain, who Is a candl ' date for re-election, and it roused Sen . ator Thomas of Colorado, a Democratic Insurgent, to vigorous protest In the senate. He paid warm tribute to Chamberlain and then issued this sol emn warning: "If the Democratic party in Its con • vention at San Francisco next month declare* for unconditional ratification of this treaty, it will do so bocnuse It has determined that It does not care to live any longer and accepts that meant* for certain dissolution." This Incident occurred during debate on the Knox peace resolution, which was -to be voted on within a few days. I Senator Hitchcock made a prepared I speech against the measure In which he denounced It as futile; Inconsistent and Inimical to the treaty of Versailles. Denying that congress has power to make peace, he admitted the truth of Knox's argument that the war actually Is at an end, and asked: ."Then why this resolution? Hostili ties ceased 18 months ago, our army J promptly was demobilized and reduced to a peace basis. Since that time com merce has been resumed. We have sold hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of products to Germany and pur chased much from her. "The war which the senator from Pennsylvania proposes to end by this resolution does not, by his own admis sion, exist. His able argument and historical citations prove thut it ended many months ago. What, then, Is the senator from Pennsylvania attempting to do by this measure, which he calls a resolution to terminate the-war? He Is making an utterly futile and hopeless attempt to make a peace settlement with Germany to take the place of the - Versailles treaty.""' Senator McCumber, Republican, of North Dakota, also attacked the reso lution, asserting that It means not only deserting our allies, but also deserting and condemning our cause. He de clared, also, that the war has not been won, and thnt through the president's "influence and pressure the German arffiles were saved from utter annihila tion or unconditional surrender." ' William J. Bryan, down In Florida, had his say about the president's re newed determination to make the treaty a campaign Issue. He urged immediate ratification of the treaty with such reservations as have been agreed upon, leaving the nntion to se cure afterward In the league any changes deemed necessnry. Of Mr. Wilson he said: "Broken down In health by the weight of cares and anxi eties such as have fallen to no other occupant of thnt high ofllce, the chief executive has been denied the Informa tion essential to sound Judgment and safe leadership." Each party now has a candidate for the presidential nomination who avow edly favors so liberal enforcement of the prohibition ameudnient that the sale and use of light wines nnd beerc' I will be permitted. Governor Edwards' Campaign among the Democrats Is well under way und now Senator Joseph 1. France of Maryland has mude his en try into the Uepubticun race. In. his announcement the senator says: "I believe In a referendum to the people on the question of whether the eighteenth amendment should be en forced In such n way as to prevent the distribution of light wines and beer ns other commodities are distributed. Such a referendum, whatever the out come, would go far toward allaying national unrest. "If a situation shall arise at the con vention In Chicago in which there is n deadlock and It is found necessary to turn to some candidate whose name ha* not heretofore been considered, I have been assured by many friends that the principle* for which I stand are such as to make me the logical choice of the convention." The wet* In the ranks of the lwmio cratlc party have been counting nose* and assert tliey will have enough dele gate votes In the San Francisco con - veptlon to force the adoption of a plank embodying their view* of pro hibition. This may be true, but there I* no doubt that the leader* of both parties j£lll use every endeafor to have the question Ignored In the platforms. While on the subject of politics. It is necessary to make some mention of the doings of the Socialist convention In New York. It wound up by nominating Eugene V. Debs frfr the presidency— which has grown Into a habit— despite the fact that Mr. Debs Is serving tjme for violating tbe espionage act. - In Its earlier sessions tbe convention fought over tbe radical declaration of princi ples submitted by (be Illinois delega OSAKAM, N. C.t THURSDAY. MAY 20, 1920 tlon, providing for tlie "dictatorship of the proieturiut" and limitation of citi zenship. Morris Hill(|Uit nnd his "con servative" followers beat this plan by a large majority. The same faction compelled the eradication of an of fensive reference to churches from the party platform. Not only Kiev, but also Odessa, the Black sea port, fell Into the possession of the Poles and Ukrainians who are fighting to free the Ukraine from the ltusslan bolshevlkl. The latter, how ever, have organized strong lines of resistance east of Kiev and assert that they expect the war with Poland to continue for years. It Is understood that the convention signed by Poland and Ukralnla Just before the present drive opened provides for a Polish out let to the Black sea, which has been one of Poland's national ambitions for centuries. Poland agrees to . give Ukralnla military support for ten years. Ilecent dispatches Indicate that is seeking an alliance with Poland against Bussla. Europe was puzzled by the silence, throughout the week, of the soviet wireless station at Moscow, and there were conjectures that the co-operative societies might have engineered a rising against the bolshevlkl. The French government astounded the radicals of that country by sudden ly ordering the dissolution of the Gen eral Federation of Labor, which has been supporting the strike of railway men by calling other strikes. The min ister of Justice Issued Judicial Infor ination against the leaders of the or ganization, and the minister of war • distributed troops through the city to , prevent disorders. Premier Millerand 'emphatically refused to compromise with the labor leaders and the latter |declared the government's action would not stop their activities. In Italy the socialists, with the aid of the popular party, succeeded In over throwing the ministry, nnd Prime Min ister Nlttl and his colleagues resigned. Nlttl had been In power nearly a year, but bad been the object of Innumerable bitter attacks from both the Catholics nnd the socialists. The Bepuhl..'nn national committee accepted President Wilson's challenge as to making the treaty and league covenant an Issuo of the campaign, by selecting Senator Jlenry Cabot Lodge, formulater of the famous res ervations, to net ns temporary chair man of the national convention In Chi cago. Ills "keynote" speech of course x will give full prominence to the treaty Issues from the point of view of him' serf and the Itepubllcana ulio believe with blm that the pact must be "Amer icanized" before It Is ratified. Home 1 at the committee members had been In favor of giving the honor to former Senator Beveridge of Indlunn, but when the president's letter to an Or egon Democrat was made public there teemed to be no further question »s to who should In? elected. The com mittee as a whole will lie pleased If the convention makes Mr. Beveridge the permanent chairman, though Chalman Ifays has suggested that Charles K. Hughes would be a line compromise candidate. The progres- j slves do not like this Idea, and neither | do the "Irreconcilable*." Secretary of the Navy Daniels spent several days with the senate commit tee that Is Investigating Admiral 81ms' charges against the navy department In the course of bis testimony he re vealed the secret Instructions given naval officers by President Wilson when they started for European wa ters. These were to the effect that they mast maintain the American tradition of audacity "to the utmost point of risk and daring." and he added that the British too cautious to make full use of their naval supremacy against the Oermans. This latter point was emphasized In a confidential ca blegram from the president to Sims, which the secretory rend. Mr. Dan iels contradicted many of the asser > Hons made by the admiral, and said i the latter aspired to become a member i of the British admiralty and put hla personal ambition before bis duty to ' bis country, hla superiors and his as sociates.
