The President has not been consulted.
Moreover, the. Senate foieisn relations

.Senator Kail, in particular, hns been

He was closeted with Mr. Lansing for
an hour nml n hnlf one dny last week.

chief is willing lo go.
Resolution Serins Ill-.dlseil
Indeed, Hie l'nil resolution, if it rep
resents mi thing more thnn the wishes
of Senator Knll. seems u little il-nd-vised
since the attitude of Mr. Wilson
Is unknown. The committee, getting
nlong veij huiipilj with Mr. Lansing
nml eiijoing It.s new pai'icipatiou in
foreign nfTuir.s, does not want to do uny
thlug to put the secretarj of slate in
a hole
It is disinclined to pass the I'nll reso
lution unless Mr. Lansing approves its
passage, mill Mr. Lansing is not in a
jioMtiou to apiirove Its passage until he
knows the will of the I'reslilent.
T'p to the present ihe moves of both
sides in the Mexican tnngle have been.
In effect, bluffs. The Full resolution
npprnr.s to be the latest and strongest Ucdliehl, resigned.
Muff. This does not mean that the
Culled Slntea, nl leant tfio United
States Senate, docs not menn to carry
out, if necessary, the threat to break
relntlonS) but the hope tinck of the
resolution Is that Cnrrnnxn will be
bi ought to Ills senses by a threat of n
severance.
Mr. Lansing has spoken to Mexico
In n threatening tone. Tho Senate
foreign relations committee, working
with the Hceretnry, Is seeking to aid
Mr. Lansing by having one of its mem
bers specially interested on Mexico In
troduce n resolution which holds over
the C'nrraii7.a government the prospect
of severed rclntlons with nil that such
n severnnec Implies.
The hope Is thnt tills new threat will
be sufficient.
I 'nrrfiiiTA M.tv l'rnrrnvtlnnln
The trouble with the threat Is that
Curriitizii may wiiit. He may want to
see whether the foreign relations com
mittee will report the Knll resolution.
If the committee does not report the
resolution then the thrcnt Is worse than
if It had never been made nt all. The
utiitiiiimi umilil then be that of the
cnlled bluff. Weakness on the pnrt of
the American (lovernment would be in
dicated in Mexico.
If the lesolution is reported and unr
rnnzii still waits and the resolution is
not adopted then the same hesitation
and weakness will be revealed. And
if It is adopted nml the President does
not net under It. then great damage
to tills country's prestige will be done in
Mexico.
Confidence is felt hero that Cnrrania
must ieltl. Hut there Is no escaping
the conclusion Hint this country is com
mitted, lo a certnin extent, to n policy
Willi rcgnrd lo Mexico, without the
President's npprnvnl.
This is one of the difficulties nrising
from ills illness. There is no unity or
certainly nbout the administration's
policy.
Secretary Lansing hns been the real
bend of the Stnte Department since the
President's Illness. lie hns directed the
country's foreign policy. lie hns taken
the various steps' in the Mexican policy
hoping thnt each one would bring Car
rnnzu to his senses. lie perhaps hns
hud little choice, am! if the President
linil been well, the policy might not
have been different.
Hut the steps have led to n certain
temporary impasse in the nbsence of
consultntfon with the President,
