BALT LAKE CITY. JUNE 21. 1920. HOPE OF PEACE IN MEXICO. HEBE is encouraging hMurenre In the talk which Adolfo IV La JiuerLa, provisional president of Veiiro, gave to newspaper for respondents Sunday at a breakfast which hs himself (rave for the representative in Mexico City of foreign Journals. In what appears to have been an entirely frank and open manner ha answered many question in regard to the revolution which placed him in power and also in regard to the future policy of the republic. While speeches are by the very character of their selling Inclined to the optimistic and cheerful, yet even when allow-- I ance to made for this, there still remains cause Mexico bas at last started for bopefulness-lba- t on the road toward peace. J ! I post-prand- ial ! i ' 1 The president said that he regarded the ; good will of other nations as the most Important element in Mexicos immediate program, j To Secure this good will, Mexico, he said, will i meet the nations fully half way on every ques- -! tion that involves their mutual interest!. Speaking specifically of the olL industry, in which outside nations have large investments in Mexico, Do La Huerta declared that the petroleum laws based on the much discussed Article XXVII of the Mexican constitution will be interpreted liberally and will not be retroactive. Although, according to press reports, there seemed to be some degree of evasion in bis answer as to specific details of meeting the foreign loans of Mexico, the president gave definite assurance that the new government plans to meet all "debts legally contracted. He spoke especially of the desire to maintain the friendship of the United States and by intimation at least represented that his country is willing to make whet concessions may be necessary to retain that friendship. Asked as to the reported treaty betweeq the Carranza government and Japan, he said that no such document has been found in the official archives at Mexico City. Mueh of. the talk naturally had to do with internal questions, and it may be noted that President De La Huerta is highly optimistic as to the new governments ability to harmonize the various factions and, to bring a peaeefiy status to the political and military situation within a reasonable lime.' Villa, he said, is not a military factor, but will be dealt with only as an outlaw and bandit Airplanes are being utilized in chasipg down this wily disturber, and it was thought that be would be entirely eliminated before long. Ail in all, the talk of the president seems to contain much to creato the hope and expectation that Mexico, is about to enter' upon a new era. Certainly it is the fervent wish, of alt except those with ulterior motlves--tha- t such may be the case. So much has happened, though, to upset plans made in the past and to revive turmoil and violence in that country that outsiders may welt be pardoned for entertaining some degree of uncertainty and skepticism. The provisional government will be tendered, however, all possible encouragement and beip in Its endeavor to work out its plans for reorganization and peace. . CAN SUCH "ECONOMY is PROVE USEFUL? . HE agricultural appropriation bill for the fiscal year beginning July i, - 1920, as recently passed by Congress, carries approxithan the amount ) mately six million tha department estimate ae needed, and over two million less than the toodnt provided In dor . the appropriation act for th fiscal year which is now nearly ended. This serious reduction was apparently made on the ground of economy, for the effect of reduced funds on the importent work of the agricultural department was fully laid before Congress. U remains to be seen whether the economy" achieved to real. The work of the farmer in feeding and clothing the people is more important than that of any other clast; and anything that lends to hamper thia work, or to handicap the efforts of those agencies which are designed to aid it should be most carefully scrutinized before being permitted. Obviously, the present reduction of funds will mske necessary curtailment or ducontinuanc in many projects and activities. It is to be hoped that, eo far as department officials have any discretion in the matter, they will apply the pruning process only after a thorough and careful review of the whole situation, taking ail the factor into consideration. Among other item affecting the west, it is understood that the department will hive to ia the employ- discontinue it ment of dairy specialists in demonatration work,-tha- t iptny teid stations engaged in cere! improvement work, including tb statics at Nephi in this slate, will have to be ioeei; that station at which problems In e . , irrigation agriculture are studied, a at lowlands, Nevada, will have to be abandoned; that the ataff rrgaged In the enforcement of the food and druga art must be reduced; that work toward preventing spoilage during hipmcnt of in poultry, egg and fih nmat be curtailed on eevrrai directions; that epecial estimate the commercial production of fruits and truck crop must he discontinued; that the project concerning deaigned to give advice to title their marketing problems, and ail work to develop direct marketing of farm product by parcel post, express and otherwise, must be discontinued; that the liiipecllon service on fruits end vegetable will he reduced; work ten he conducted in only four of the Urge markets, end the inspection of certain other commodities apeciffrd In the law, auch as hay, cannot be handled at all; the grain supervision office at Salt Uke City ha been closed; all Investigations of the problem of temperature, moisture, eoil, air and other physical factor in relation t.9 plant growth must he completely discoptuiued; Jnvwtiga-tlo- n of animal tuberculosis, anthrax, and various other diseases, as well i studiea of stock poisoning by plants, willJ be greatly reduced; work on insects injurious tot the and health of man, such as yellow-fevmalarial mosquitoes and the house fly, must be reduced. Other lines of activity which will have to be materially curtailed Include Investigations of the culture and improvement of forage crops, the soil survey work, work in disease, field the control of the polato-wa-rl maintenand construction in the experiments and of road materials and ance of roads investigations, preparations, and studies in farm drainage. Moreover, all these rcductiona are much more serious than appears from a statement. A dollar, ss everyknows, body buys much less .of everything than it formerly bought, and also does considerably less work. Even if alt the appropriations had been retained at the old figures, therefore the department would still have been handicapped in carping on its work ' effectively. er farm-irrigati- on mereoi-)ars-and-ce- nli THE AMRITSAR SLAUGHTER. of Cen. Dyer, former EXONERATION British forces In the Punjab comprovince, India, under whose ordere-w- a mitted that horror known as the Amritsar massacre, ia an astounding thing in view of the reports and recommendations of the committees investigating the slaughter. Gen. Dyer himself admitted that be might have dispersed the crowd without firing, but then they would all come back and laugh at me, and I considered that I would be making myself a fool. So he decided upon strong action, and gave the orders under which, by rifle and machine gun fire, and bombs, tome S00 Indian civilians were killed and 1500 wounded. Perhaps no government can be gravely blamed for the occasional occurrence of such horrors, because every country produce now and than a man of the Dyer type who at intervals happens to arrive at a position of responsibility for which bitter experience prove him to be terribly But no govern-- , ment can justify or exalt itself by whitewashing auch a crime, instead of disavowing and condemning it, and dealing Justly with its perpetrator. In the present instance it to not too much to aay that the future of XJreal Britain Indian empire may hang on this exact question. Publio opinion in England repudiate the atrocity It could not do otherwise without and its conviolating Us own sciousness of just and humane intentions. Even the usual advocates of force in dealing with inferior races have found this case too much for them. Yet now it is reported in the days dispatches that the army council has completely exonerated the arch offender! The fact is lamentable enough in itself, but it to the more sinister in its assurance that the cul' prit is not to be viewed alonrf as a dangerous individual eccentric. Evidently he has powerful backing from an official coterie which, though sometimes entrusted with the control and perhaps the Uves of hundreds of thousands of human beings, appeaps to be' destitute of the temper and Judgment that would qualify them to rule over an equal number osbep. self-respe- ct -0- -J5- COAL SIIORTauE PREDICTED. 4 its review, Just made public, of business, industrial and financial conditions for the month of May, the federal reserve board foresees a coal ahortage next winter that may greatly curtail the output of Iron and steel and seriously affect other industries. Even now the situation in some districts is declared to be acute. Shortage of coal for industrial purposes will doubtless mean a scarcity of fuel for the healing of homes and other domestic uses, so that everybody bas a vital interest in the situation and outlook. While it to not desirable to borrow trouble nor to arouse undue anxiety that could do little, if any, good, it to the part of wisdom to face the situation frankly and then work to the utmost against the menace. The coal ahortage to said to be due to ctr shortage and a dlrect resuTl of the railroad strike, which even yet haa not been cleared up in many places. Great effort hes been put forth in recent weeks to straighten out the freight congestion and remedy the car situation.' But with the prospect of a fuel famine next winter there should be added incentive to crowd this work and get cars to the mines as fast as they ran be filled. At present, accord ing to the repeft of the federal board, many of the mines are operating on greslly reduced schedules. Utah and the Inlermounlam Just how eectton will be affected in this connection remains to be seen; in all probability we shall fere better than many part of the country.
