..AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 19 Acting
Governor T. W. Davidson today
acquiesced in the request of President
Obregoh'of Mexico for permission to
transport troops across Texas soil, reJ
Versing his decision of Friday at the
urgent request of Secretary of State'
Hughes. "
In a telegram to Washington, acting
Governor Davidson said 2000 Mexican
federal troops would bo permitted to
enter- Texas near El Paso, provided
the American government assumed all
responsibility for any damages result
ing. . : ,
. President Obfegon modified his re-'
quest -by asking that' his' troops be
permitted to enter, the '.United Slntes
near 1 Paso and go into 'Mexico at
that' point Instead of at Laredo, as
originally proposed.. I
The change in the situation was
caused by receipt of a telegram from
Secretary Hughes at the executives'
office here lute last night. The tele
gram, read: j
"Urgent. I beg to Inform you that
the federal government hns given
careful consideration to your reason
for deeming It unwise to grant the re
quest made in my telegram of Janu
ary 16. However, the desire of the
state of. Texas to co-operate In this
matter has been noted and in view
thereof and because an urgency exists
Involving protection of American Hvcb
and property in Mexico. 1 Rhull
greatly appreciate receiving your as
surances that It w 11 be agreeable to
you that permission bo granted for
the .two thousand Mexican troops to
enter Mexico by way of El Paso, in
stead of Laredo, provided such ar
rangement is acceptable to tho Mexi
can, government. This arrangement
apparently would obviate your objec
tions." EL PASO, Texas, Jan. 19. Mexican
consular and military officers at. the
border today wore jubilant over the
announcement that federal troops
would be permitted to pans through
El Paso and detrain; at Juarez for
service against tho rebels in the In
terior. Little'.' difficulty is expected in
transporting the troops ns trains car
rying them can be routed directly to
Juarez without tho soldiers leaving
the cars.. It is expected that the troop
movement will be as secret as possible
In order to prevent attempts at vio
lence on,' the part of rebel sympa
thizers along tho border and lower El
Paso.'

BILL ENDORSED
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19. Approval
of the McNary bill, proposing the crea
tion of a $200,000,000 agricultural ex
port corporation to dispose of surplus
farm products abroad was given before
the senate agriculture committee to
day by representatives of Wheat grow
ers In the northwest. The bill is tho
third of the trio of major farm relief
measures taken up by the committee
which has Indicated Its Intention to
expedite a report.
PENDLETON, Ore., Jan. 19. W.
Lair Thompson, vice president of the
First National bank, of Portland,
speaking before the wheat growers and
businessmen' gathered in this city to
form an Oregon export commission
league backed the Wallace plan of
marketing In an exhaustive renprt of
that plan.
Mr. Thompson denied that the plan
called for government price fixing but
that it is merely a reverse application
of the tariff principal. And far from
being class legislation, the plan mere
ly makes the tariff apply to all
claoncxi of American products instead
of eliminating the agriculturists as is
now the case. The plan is not a gov
ernment subs!dy,said. Mr. Thompson,
but the money involved is merely a re
volving fund to be returned Intact
when the emergency passes and the
operations- of the export body cease.
Mr. Thompson stated in supporting
the plan that, at present the approxi
mately 170,000.000 bushels of wheat
sold abroad set the price for the 600,
000,000 bushels sold at homo. The en
tire wheat raising argas of the United
Stats are affected by the depression
in wheat price which does not give the
produces the proper value In buying
power for his weat. Under the plan
which is Incorporated in the McNary
Haughon bill now before congress the
export commission will operate as In
thenreent when a national emer
gency exists and will tend to establish
(i nrnno- ratio hetwoen tho world
prices and the domestic prices.
The sneaker was emphatic in de
claring that the remedy for the wheat
price situation does not lie in curtail
ing production since over a period of
years, the effect of Htich a plan would
be disastrous as it would cut short a
needed world supply. The speaker
touched lightly on the boycotting of
Portland industries by Washington
communities and declared that a simi
lar action on the. part of the forming
body for Oregon would be unwise.

Grand Jury Adjourns.
The grand jury adjourned Friday,
until Monday, without filing any re
port or returning any Indictments In
their three days' session. It Is expect
ed that the body will complete Its
work by Tuesday -noon. The subjects
under probe have not been made pub
lic. them ease, safety, comfort and- cer
tainty of attainment, have made ex-
pioratlon and discovery more or less
humdrum pursuits, Mr. stcransson
said, and added:
"So I am through with exploring."
Mr. stefansson expressed the belief
that the dirigible airship Shenandoah

Navy Maneuvers Off Panama
Canal Result in Victory of
Attacking Force Defense
By Air Fleet Good, But Forts
Ineffective.
COLON. Canal Zone, Jan. 19. The
conclusion of the joint maneuvers be
tween tho "blue" and "black" fleets
of the American navy off the eastern
gateway to the Panama canal finds
the official umpires checking up the
various theoretical actions in detail to
determine Lhe effectiveness of the
canal and Its defenses in standing off
the operations of the Atlantic squad
ron which acted the part of the en
emy. -
Just what the maneuvers showed
the military and naval experts who
observed them will not be known until
the official report is issued, but when
"hostilities" were concluded yesterday
the "enemy fleet" had worsted the
"blues" and was theoretically in con
trol of the Car rl bean sea, although
many units of the Pacific fleet had
succeeded in passing from Balboa to
tho northern gateway.
As the final engagement started
the "blue" battleships were behind the
long breakwater that marks, the en
trance to the canal from the Atlantic
ocean. The submarines and destroy
ers were outside, Admiral McCulIy,
commanding the "black" fleet, came
into the harbor with his main units
behind a smoke screen laid down by
the "black'? destroyers. He opened
fire at a range of 6000 yards and so
concentrated and effective was it that
the "blue" battleships were unable to
penetrate beyond the breakwater, de
spite the supporting fire from Fort
Sherman. Port Randolph, the impor
tant defensive work that guards . the
entrance to the canal from the north
east, was captured by "black" ma
rines on Thursday. - '
Vhen4h0 "black" fleet stood; of to.
sea at noon, after an -engagement Uwt
Ing three hours. It was the opinion of
unofficial observers ' that tho "blues"
had , been decisively, beaten and. that
the "enemyV held the.Carribeun. The
chief umpire assessing the "losses"
which the defensive forces, sustained
through the success of the marines in
capturing Randolph and Coco Solo air
station and submarine station on
Thursday, points out that the "blacks''
would have been destroyed by the fire
from Fort Sherman which held a
superior force.
Gatun lake, with Catun lock was
theoretically under shell fire early in
the maneuvers, and was visited by
"black" aircraft in an effort to bomb
the dreadnaughts as they passed thru.
However the anti-aircraft batteries
drove off tho "enemy" aircraft. In
general the air forces of the defense
were superior to those of the "blacks."

WASHINGTON, Jan.- 19. Flour
ishing an empty flask and assailing
the activities of the anti-saloon league
and Representative Upshaw, democrat
of Georgia, Representative Sherwood,
democrat, Ohio, 88 years old veteran
of tho house 'of representatives told
his colleagues today that "up to 1924,
It Is Kunerally concedod that prohibi
tion enforcement officors have failed
to enforce tho law," and also charged
that the use of narcotics had increas
ed enormously since enactment of the
dry laws.-
Declaring that whon he was only
12 years old, ho had signed a tem
perance pledge and would ."vote for
no law which tolerated Intoxicating
liquor aB a beverage," he Insisted that
prohililtlon had , failed 'to pronioii.
although It had cost the taxpayers
"over a thousand million aouars m
revenue In the last two years." . '
"Attorney General Daugherty con
cedes tho fnlluro," he Bald. "He con-'
cedes tho fnlluro to onforco the law,
when ho asks for an appropriation of
$20,000,000 by congroBs to build a
fleet of vessels to enforce the law on'
the Atlantic const, only."
He cited figures to show that there
was a mounting consumption of Brit
ish liquors In the United States, plao.-,
lug the 1923 exports from that coun
try at '5.000.000, gallons, compared
with' 22,000,000 gallons the yoar'bo---fore.

Booxo Drinking Increases..
"B'.neo the passage by congress of ,
the Volstead act," suid Mr. Sherwood,
"Thoro has been a large Increaso In .
booze drinking among young men and ,
young girls. It hns become a men- ,
ace to ordorly Bocloty. I
"Men who never Indulged In liquor
beforo are now carrying flasks In hip ,
pockets loaded with moonshine or
bootleg whiskey, and young girls are .
induced to drink the vile stuff in
dance halls and automobiles parked
along lonesome roods. It Is a moral
menace now and It Is growing worse." -
When the eighteenth amendment
was proposed, ho asserted, the antl
saloon leaguo promised that "It would
. ..in. in the minimum, would
largely reduce the divorce evil, would
abolish drunkenness,. woum mane
HtininnM iirnnneritv bv Inducing the
earnings of the Industrial classes to go
into hoineB instead of Into Intoxicants, ,
and would empty our Jails and peni- ,
tcntlarles."
Crlmu Has Increased.
"After four years of experience,"
he suid, "we find that not one single
promise made by tho proponents of ,
prohibition has been kept. Crime has
Increased forty per cent; divorces in
some fifty cities havo Increased 35 .
por cent; and murdora havo increased
forty per cent. And worse tha.n all
the calamities that have happoned
since the Volstead act Is tho fearful .
record of the dope fiends, or narootlo
nddicts, now numbering nearly a mil
lion victims, as representated by the'
highest medical authorities."
Charging Representative 'Upshaw
with 'skyrocket oratory," Mr. Sher-'
wood said his Georgia colleague' had '
"failed to point out a slnglo benotlt to ;
olther an Individual or to the state,"
because of prohibition. "This bold
attltudo required the gall of a cur- '
mudgeon, and the audacity of a Chl
ncso bandit," ho declared, character
izing Mr.: Upshaw as "the reincarna
tion of, tho old Puritans of .tho 17th
century,, who hung Quakers In Con
necticut and burned witches In Massa
chusetts." ' ,
Ijcague Is Scored. '
