THE COVENANT AND X TREATY WOULD SAVE , f WAR WITH MEXICO' It looks as if we are driving to a perilous relation with Mex-i ICO. For five years certain forces* an this country have been stead ily campaigning for an Ameri hons of acres of land, mine- ' can occupation of that country. [ and ojl fields. Some of these American interests own mil lands and properties have l>een bought in good faith. The title to others is dubious. Those who have small color of right in their titles feel that if the Unit ed States should intervene there would be a quieting of titles. If the league of nations were now in existence and Mexico were a memlter peace and order, could probably lie brought । alxjut in that unhappy country without the firing of a shot;' but when the United States j goes into Mexico to establish peace and order we must pre pare for a campaign of many months, the use of a half mil lion troopa and the building up of another staggering debt. The United States, in order, to pacify Mexico, will have to put forth as great an effort as did Great Britain when the em pire started out to establish British order in South Africa. The l>est thought in Mexico will listen to the united voice of England, Erance, Spain, the United States, Brazil and other South American republics, but the Mexicans will regard the lone effort of the United States to restore order by invading the country as the beginning of a campaign to destroy their inde pendence and reduce them to a state of vassalage.—Commer cial Appeal. •— PHYSIQUE ABOUT SAME No Change in Americans Be cause of War Training. New York.— There is a pop ular impression that our war with the central powers has naulted in an improvement in the physique of the young men of the nation—especially those k Who served in the army and toe navy. It has been reported that returned soldiers who bought readj- to wear clothing required larger sizes than ever before. For instance, men who wore size 41 before the war had to have size 42 or 43 when thev returned to “civilians,” due of course to the development of their chests and shoulders. And there have been numerous re ports of small waist lines in connection with increased chest developments. That there have been numer ous individual cases of this na ture is generally admitted, bpt the fact that ready to wear clothing—suits, shirts and un dergarments—are cut on the same size patterns today as three years ago disproves the I theory that the war has im-, proved the physique of Ameri cans, taking the country by and large. "While some ot our salesmen occasionally encounter an old customer whose chest measure ment had increased an inch or two while he was in France, there has been no change in the, sizes of our ready to wear clothing,” said the head of one Manning, Loyalln War, Is Leader In Battles of Peace Former South Carolina Gover nor Urges Big Program Os Service For Church Having Riven six sons to bi* erma tr> in the great world war Richard I.
