Tho countries participating with the United States, arc Argentina, Brazil, Chili, Bolivia, Uruguay and Guatemala. Until the Wilson administration, the South American republics were but seldom consulted. As a result, the United Stales has been viewed with suspicion mid hostility in Pan-America, wlijch distrusted, and with good reason, its imperialistic tendencies as manifested under Roosevelt in the canal deal. President Wilson's disavowal of terri torial grabbing ambit ions and his previous efforts at paci- n I II . I t . a iicauon inrougn me u. is. c. mediaiion, has done much to restore friendliness and disarm suspicion. The situation may be summed up as follews: The United Slates will adopt m Mexican policy which fails to command the moral support of the Laiin'-Anieri- can countries. The Latin-American countries arc unanimously op posed lo armed iulervenlion by tbe United States at this or probably any future time. The United States is opposed to recognizing anv of the so-called revolutionary leaders Oarranza, Villa,' Zapata -and would be glad lo have, these all retire in favor of some person agreeable to them all. None of the revolutionary loaders has tiny notion of retiring in favor of anybody momentarily, temporarily or permanently, though Villa has agreed to a three month's armistice pending peace negotiations. Three and perhaps mpre of the Latin-American diplo mats in the conference favor the recognition of Carrana. Nobody lavors the recognition of Villa or Zapata. Oarranza is strongly represented in Washington bv -John Mud, Robert .Metcalf, Charles Douglas, tfdiuund'o iAIartinez, .Robert Duron, Louis Cabrera, minister of finance in the Carranza cabinet, and Robert lsqueira. Armed intervention would be opposed bv nil the Mexi can revolutionists; no faction is willing to risk its standing at home by the slightest encouragement of armed inter vention. The Carranza faction claim to be making substantial headway toward complete control and pacification of the country. the only course short ot armed intervention in the failure of moral suasion is the arms embargo, and formal recognition of one of the revolutionists. In the m-esent state of affairs this would probably be Carranza. Recognition would bring a vast access of financial credit to the faction recognized, which, in the present pov erty 01 1 no coniesiauis, would go lar toward aiding the faction lo ultimate success. What over the outcome, sinned intervention by the United Stales seouis remote.

The American society for Thrift is an organization financed by the financiers and savings bank people, pri marily lo increase savings bank accounts. Newspaper of fices have been flooded with "thrift" articles for a year past, which decry extravagance as the besetting sin of the American people. J'Vugality is a virtue when not carried to an extreme. Then it becomes penury a worse sin thai extravagance in its effect upon human nature. Rut let us see. whether or 1101 exiravagaucc is the rulinir mission of the American people. Ninety percent of the wealth of the United Stales is in l lie hands ol ten percent ol the population probably half tu 11 111 me control nt one-ieulli ol one percent. The aver age annual income of tliree-ipiarlers of the wage earners is less Hum $T00 per year. In most of the industrial centers, it takes the labor of the entire familv to support it. It is then, only by the practise of thrift that the great bulk o our population is enabled to exist. Only two per cent of Americans are independent of a daily income.
