Mexico City—President Huerta re iterated the declaration of his policy of "hands off” in reply to a question as to what would be his attitude in case an offer of mediation should bo made by the United States through John l.ind, who is coming here as the personal representative of President Wilson, to act as adviser to the Amer ican embassy. "I have said publicly," President Huerta declared, "that I will not ac cept mediation or intervention of any kind, because national dignity and honor do not allow it. I have declared also that I will not treat with the rebels, and much less will 1 do so if doing so involves a flagrant violation of our sovereignity. “All should be joined in the bonds of peace, rejecting all suggestions of a violation of a sovereign and insult that may be offered to our national dignity.” Personal friends of Presi dent Huerta, who appear to enjoy his confidence, vigorously assert that he will not consider resigning or any compromise with the rebels. They say they would regard as gratuitous the sending of a representative here by the United States with the announce ment that he is intended ultimately to be ambassador, but whose primary mission is to act as mediator. They insist that if the United States is sin cere in its desire to restore peace, the most practicable means to this end would be the recognition of the Huer ta government. That any suggestion by Mr. Lind or any other foreigner that President Huerta shall resign in favor of a pro visional president or that a compro mise be effected with the rebels would be regarded as unfriendly interference and would be resented by the govern ment, was the comment of one man high in official life. He added that mediation from the outside was out of the question. PARCEL POST RATES ARE CUT Burleson Plans Further to Popular ize Sending Mail Packages. Washington, D.
