8 BANDIT SEARCH IS INVASION OF MEXICAN RIGHTS Carranza Points Out That tlis Government Is Dealing Ade quately With the Situation By Associated Press. Mexico City, Monday, Sept. I. In connection with the recent puni tive expedition into Mexico by the American army to find bandits who were holding two American aviators for ransom, a message from Presi dent Carranza, read at the opening session of Congress to-night said: "This invasion constitutes a viola tion of our rights. Serious and with out motive was this violation that has deeply wounded Mexican pa triotic feeling." The message referred further to a request by the United States for the punishment of bandits and cites numerous cases to show that the government has prosecuted guilty parties and has met with a great measure of success in dealing with bandits. Rights Not Observed Speaking of charges of alleged unneutrality by Mexico during the war, the message said: "The republic of Mexico observ ed the conduct absolute neutrality, but certain governments have ex pressed the opinion that the govern ment of Mexico had not been strict ly neutral, although they were not able to affirm or specify any act or I mission on the part of the govern- | ment of Mexico which would impli- j cate the least violation of neutral- i ity, judging in accordance with the LEMON JUICE TAKES OFF TAN ! t !

Your grocer has the lemons and any drug store or toilet counter will supply three ounces of Orchard White for a few cents. Massage this sweetly fragrant lotion into the face, neck, arms and hands each day and see how freckles, sunburn, windburn and tan disappear and how clear, soft and white the skin becomes. Yes! It is harmless. 5 C a package before the war 5 C a package during the war and 5c a package NOW £ THE FLAVOR LASTS SO DOES THE PRICE! TUESDAY EVENING, most exigent principles of interna tional law, treaties now in force and universally established practices. On the other hand, the rights of Mexico as a neutral were not always re spected as they were entitled to be, because various units of the Amer ican Navy remained in certain ex ceptional cases more than twenty four hours in our waters, while there ! were kept at anchor at Tampico vessels of war under the pretext of protecting their fellow nationals." Will Not Recognize Doctrine Regarding the Monroe Doctrine, the message said Mexico did not recognize and will not recognize it, "inasmuch as it established with out the volition of all the peoples of America, a criterion and situa tion in which they were not con sulted and because that doctrine smacked of sovereignty over Mexico and constituted forcible guardian ship over all the nations on the American hemisphere." "Mexico continues in good rela tions with all friendly nations of the world with the exception of Great Britain," the message declar ed. "The names of those with whom relations are suspended are given for reasons which were stated in the last report to Congress." President Carranza then summar ized two notes sent by the American government December IS, 1918, one of which answered the Mexican note claiming the right to legislate on petroleum. Mention was also made of the American protest against the treasury department's circular re garding the collection of royalties from oil comjianies, and gave the Mexican reply. After protesting against the demands for interven tion for the purpose of "making our laws accord with personal inter ests," President Carranza declared the oil campaign was disguised un der the plea for intervention, "be cause of lack of guarantees they pretend exists in our territory." Reforms Would Hurt Americans Citing the case of the Richardson Construction Company's protest against the increase in land taxes, the message said: "Unfortunately the Mexican government has receiv ed suggestions from the United States government when it has tried to make reforms that, may injure American citizens. These sugges tions destroy deliberately our lib erty for legislation and nullify the right we have to progress in accord ance with our own ideas. The argu ment used by the American State Department, as well as by the Amer ican press, has been that our duties are confiscatory. The Mexican gov ernment hopes the Northern repub lic will respect the sovereignty nnd independence of Mexico. To vio late them, claiming the lack of guarantees for its citizens or in convenient legisl.ation for its inter ests, would constitute a transgres sion of international right and would demonstrate that the worst misfortune for a nation is to be weak and unable to protect itself by force against stronger nations." Dr. Martin F. Kocevar will open offices for the practice of medicine and surgery at 403 South Second street, Steelton, or? September 1. WORRIED ABOUT HER MOTHER Her mother would be so wor ried, a little Lemoyne girl told Complaint Clerk Henry Bueh after she had been taken to po lice headquarters yesterday. The girl had been picked up wander ing about between Market and Walnut streets. She was crying as loudly as she when taken to headquar ters . Mr. Buch managed to quiet her down several times, but only to be followed by a new outbreak. "Don't worry; we'll soon have you home," Mr. Buch endeavored to reassure her. "It isn't myself I am worrying about. My mother will be so worried," she told the genial com plaint clerk as she burst forth anew. Council Approves the Appointment of Veterans to City Police Force City Council to-day approved the appointment of two city patrolmen, recommended by Mayor Keister. Both men will begin their duties September 15. The appointees were: Charles M. Graeff, 2212 North Sixth street, for merly in the old Eighth Regiment, to succeed Jacob Zimmerman, re signed, and Howard Schickley, 2142 Greenwood street, to succeed Charles J. Davis, dismissed. Both men were in service during the war and passed the last civil service examination for patrolmen, ranking in first and third places in percentage. The only other action by the Commissioners was the approval of a resolution authorizing tlie transfer of $313.73 from the general contingent fund to the compensa tion insurance fund. Dan Cupid Shoots a Long Arrow but Fails to Bring Victims Together One disappointed couple, whose birthplaces are thousands of miles apart, hut wno, were brought togeth er by the arrows of Dan Cupid, could not secure a marriage license to-day at the county recorder's office he < ause the bride-to-be was not of age.

"The present high prices of food are not due to over-exports to Eu rope from the United States during the past year. That can be demon strated by the fact that wo enter a new harvest with larger stocks of previous years' production than at this time last year. In fact, the stocks of many communities are the largest we ever had in storage at this season. Yet prices are very much higher. If we are to account for the high price level on the basis of over-exports, we should have to find a depletion of our nationui Wave Is World-Wide Mr. Hoovdr pointed out that the problems involved in the specula tive wave were very difficult to deal with because it was world-wide and not confined to the United States. "The law of supply and demand," ] he continued, "is not working nor l mally and probably will not for an ] other year. While prospective food supplies for the next twelve months arc about equal to the apparent need, unstable political situation, a recurring shortage of shipping, a shortage of credit and a combina | tion of either • buyers or sellers will tend to create great speculative j waves and may inflate prices to a j point unendurable to the consumer, or, in the reserve situation, unen durable to the farmer. "Wo will have a large surplus next year and must have a prosper ous farming community if we are I to have the world fed in future and maintain stability at homo and | abroad. It is my own view that the I situation would not have been so | acute if the blockade had been re moved soon after the armistice was signed, as was urged by the United States government. The speculator would have had his illusions de stroyed last winter instead of now. j It would also have been possible to have prevented great speculation had we retained an embargo on ex ports and thus kept the world's speculators puzzled as to the gov ernment's action. The rise in food stuffs, of course, took place only after the control of exports had been removed. On the other hand, the general demand of the public made it impossible to continue the con trol of exports, as that control tends to retard the resumption of normal economic life."
