The Most Durable
Paint for Your Home
If you are thinking of painting your home, do
you realize that you can undertake the task at
a small expense, provided you use careful judgment
in the selection of a reliable paint? These factors

protective qualities and ease of application.
LAWRENCE PAINTS

properties and their chemical constituents. The
utmost attention is paid to the selection of materials
and to their scientific compounding. This gives
you a paint offering greater resistance to ever
changing climatic conditions, and far more durab
ility, than is found in ordinary paints.
Lawrence Paints are economical because of
their large covering capacity, and, being properly
proportioned, are easily applied. All in all, you'll
save both time and money by choosing LAW
RENCE PAlNTS—they present the true solution
of your housepainting problem.
They are put up in cans, mixed ready to use.

Hold Up Movement
The situation on the Mexican bor
der was the subject of all the clay's
conferences. Any contemplated move
ment of the army to Vera Cruz by
transport. It was reported, would be
held up as a result of the Curranza
message of last night until border
conditions would permit withdrawal
of troops there.
Suggestions were made that before
any extensive army movement could
be ordered, the militia would have to
be called out by congressional action
and money supplied for the mobiliza
tion of a large army.
Word was received at the Navy
Department that the destroyer flotilla
from Vera Cruz had reached Tatn
pico and another report said that the
revolutionist troops about Tamplco
had formed an alliance with the
Huerta forces in the city to withstand
any attack by the American forces.
The department staff conferred as to
conditions at Vera Cruz, and, it was
understood that the next move by the
forces under Admiral Badger would
be the seizure of the railroad from
Vera Cruz to Mexico City.
This road, controlled by two bridges
which, if destroyed, would t>e difficult
to replace, would be absolutely neces
sary, If Vera Cruz is to be made the
base of further aggressive operations.
No Quarrel With Mexico
The President, in his statement of
comment on Carranza's note which
had asked this government to with
draw from Vera Cru2 and recognize
the Constitutionalists, flatly an
nounced that the course of the Wash
ington government would be continued
in the direction of General Huerta and
his adherents, but that the United
States had no quarrel with the Mex
ican people as a whole.
As yet the Washington government
does not expect open hostilities from
the Constitutionalists, hoping that
they will remain neutral.
Carranza's request for the with
drawal of the American forces from
Vera Cruz on the ground that it "was
a violation of the national sovereignty
of Mexico," and a hostile act to the
Mexican nation, gave the President
and his Cabinet advisers with whom
he was In conference much concern.
In consequence, the White House
statement was issued to inform Gen
eral Carranza that the United States
could not recognize him or seek repa
ration from him as he requested, but
must deal with the authorities In con
trol of the territory where offenses
were committed. This has been the
consistent course of the Washington
government during the present admin
istration.
Is Given l*assports
The fact that Charges O'Shaugh
nessy had been handed his passports
by General Huerta added an acute
aspect to the situation, but has been
more or less expected. The interests
of the United States will be looked
after by one or two of the other for
eign legations, as was the case in
Spain during the last war. Secretary
Bryan said that the mere withdrawal
of the Charge d'Affaires did not nec
essarily mean war. He referred to
the fact that precedent showed in
stances where war did not follow the
departure of a minister or charge
with his passports.
Reports that Mr. O'Shaughnessy had
reached Vera Cruz were not credited
by the State Department. It was
stated that he had not had time to
reach the cost since his last dispatch
from the Mexican capital.
The department said that from 800
to 1,000 Americans were in Mexico
City and that they would be protected
by the guards of the other legations,
numbering about 100 soldiers. No
American marines are in the Mexican
capital.

Mann Sees No Glory
in War With Mexico
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C., April 23.—"Mr.
Speaker, I think I have never indulged
in partisanship in this House in any
matter affecting our relations with
foreign countries," said Representative
Mann, the Republcan leader. "This
•ide of the House, in my opinion, has
been extremely loyal to the President
during the past year and more while
the Mexican difficulties have been un
der attempted solution. We have re
frained from criticising a course in
which we did not believe.
"Now the gentleman from Virginia,
Mr. Flood, charges us with partisan
ship because some of us are opposed
to involving the country in a war out
of which there can come no glory to
the American people or the American
flag. The partisanship lies on the
other side of this chamber, where, re
gardless of their belief, without regard
to the facts, without consideration of
the questions involved, they simply act
as they are ordered to do by the
President.
"I do not believe we ought to engage
in a war with Mexico at this time for
the reasons that have been suggested
by the President. Ido not believe we
are to gain glory for ourselves or
honor for the flag. The pending reso
lution fauthorizing armed interven
tion]. which declares that it is not the
intention to make war upon Mexico,
Is a falsehood upon Its face, treated
by the world as another American
hypocritical pretension that while ac
tually engaged In war we disclaim the
responsibility for war.
"If wo pass the resolution we have
entered upon war. Already we have
fired upon and killed Mexican citizen*.
Already we have involved ourselves in
a war, in a. way. with Mexico. I be
lieve we should be patient enough to
secure peace. Gentlemen on the other
side have frequently said there could
be no war with Mexico. I have be
lieved that the 'watchful waiting' pol
icy of the President in the end would
involve us in war, but X have hoped
and prayed, and still hope that there
may be a rhance to prevent war.
1 "It Is easy for gentlemen her® in
their seats, safe and aecure from dan-

ger, to talk about the glory of the flag
and about war. War is a reality.
Knowing the results of a war with
Mexico, knowing that In the end It will
he successful, we should be more cau
tious about producing war, and I have
been surprised that gentlemen In the
House should talk for peace and vote
for war."
Change of Plans Wade
Necessary Because of
Rebel Leader's Attitude
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C„ April 23. A
complete change in the plan If mili
tary campaign in Mexico may be ne
cessitated by the menacing attitude of
the Constitutionalists and that subject
Is under discussion by the Joint board
of the army and navy and the secre
taries of the two military departments.
Predicated upon the belief that the
Constitutionalists would observe an at
tiude of strict neutrality during the
settlement of the issues between the
United States government aAd Ofeneral
Huerta, no arrangements Have been
made in regard to the disposition of
American military forces on the north
ern border beyond those necessary to
meet possible small local disturbances.
Late reports however, from Con
sular Agent Carothers Indicate grow
ing turbulence and the development
of anti American feeling in the north
of Mexico, and particularly In the
neighborhood of Chihuahua, where
many Americans have elected to re
main in charge of their business in
terests and in disregard of preceding
warnings from the American consular
officers, relying upon the supposed
good will of the Constitutionalists. A
diversion of a large proportion of the
American garrison to other border
points, the 0,000 Mexican internes,
composed of the federal soldiers and
their wives who fled from OJinaga
some months ago, are within a barbed
wire enclosure insufficiently guarded.
The status of these Internes is likely
to be changed very soon to that of
prisoners of war. and It is the Inten
tion of the \\ ar Department to take
them to a point sufficiently distant
from the border to insure their safe
keeping as soon as the necessary funds
are forthcoming.
Plans of campaign are being ar
ranged on the lines of the immediate
establishment of a sufficient protection
along the entire northern border of
Mexico from the American inhabi
tants In Texas and the other border
States. Following that will develop
the details of the original plan of a
campaign against Mexico City by land
via the railroad lines.
