f KVjA'1 interest nttneliCH lo ilic ftm-Ameririm plans of
v pncii lent 1011 111 iMoxieo, which will he rnifod 111 Sun
day's papers. 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.

or Thrift" held this
las asked President Wilson
to designale Sunday preceding Labor Oav each year as
"Thrift Day," the object being to encourage the habit of
inriti among the people ol the United States.
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. Sixty-six per cent of the people who die,
