PRESIDENT'S SUGGESTION TO EN FORCE NEUTRALITY IS AP PROVED FILIBUSTERING GIVEN HARD BLOW Exportation Of Munitions Of War To Country With Which America It At Peace Prohibited WASHINGTON, March 13. Revolu tion, filibustering expeditions or the promotion of domestic violence In any country In pan-America hereafter may not hoce for supplies of any descrip tion from the United States. This principle, proclaimed today In a concurrent resolution adopted by the Senate at the Instance of President Taft, is virtually certain to be passed by the House tomorrow. Though designated primarily to meet the Inadequencles of the present neutrality laws, to which the Mexican government called the President's at tention, the resolution, when put Into effect will empower President Taft to prohibit at his descretlon, through a proclamation, the exportation of munitions of war to any country with which the United States is at peace. Anticipating summary action tomor row by the House, where Representa tive Burleson, of Texas, will take charge of the measure. Treasury and War Department officials tonight Is sued Instructions virtually halting all shipments of arms into Mexico until the resolution la declared effective. Loopholes for the violation of neu trality laws admitted are many and professional promoters of revolutions in Latin America through vary de vices, have succeeded in evading the statutes. To the Mexican rebels who captured Juarez recently when the sole purpose of possessing a port of entry through which they might lm Dort arms unrestrictedly the resolu tion will prove a stubborn obstacle.

Men and women do not breathe alike, tn a woman the breathing is from the thorax or chest while In a man It la mainly from the diaphragm, which la lower down. This peculiar difference Is so marked that it Is possible to rec ognize by It a woman disguised at a man. although the disguise may be faultless In other respects. Most physi ologists say thnt this difference Is not due to sex. but owing to artificial con ditions, such as the wearing of corsets.
