Or the constitutionalists and will be Slad to con Sider any. Proposal that will tend to draw the various factions together into a plan for the restoration of peace in Mexico. X this 3s Llie attitude of president Wil son As it was revealed today after re ports reached Here saying 3euor por f i l to y Roas. Minister of foreign altars in the Huerta Cabinet had Koite to meet John Lind or. Wilson s personal representative , of the peace Parley. Senor Kojas has Feen mentioned As the Man who would succeed Huerta if he retired and the object of the visit 1 o or. Ivind it has Boon reported was to acquaint the ures Tient s envoy w i t h his personality. Inc Identa l bythe president in talking with fall ii a today. While remarking t l a t he lipid no official reports of any new Parley spoke in complimentary terms of the mexican minister of for Eien affairs As a Man of High charac ter. What the president emphasizes in his informal discussions on the mexi can is Tuat Ion is that lie As president of the United states has never sought to approve or disapprove of individuals who May aspire 10 the presidency of Mexico and that he has no list of men whom he holds under the so called ban because of Alefi de complicity in the assassination of Madero. His refusal to recognize Huerta. It May be stated on the he Chest authority was not based on any personal antagonism to Huerta. But on the ground that the constitutionalists would never be reconciled to the Man who had Over thrown Madero and Suarez. And that governments set up by arbitrary Force and not reflecting the popular will should not be dealt with by the United states. Must please both sides. Likewise in the consideration of individuals who mis it seek the recon nit Ion by the United states the Prin Ciple president Wilson has been work ins on is that recognition extended to any one set u p in the presidency with out some popular expression or with out the endorsement of All factions could not Lead to peace. In consider ing peace proposals from the Huerta government the United states it is known now Wil l do All that it can to Forward a peaceful settlement but the conviction is As Strons with the presi Dent today As it was when he sen his instructions to John Lind last sum Mer that peace in Mexico in the last analysis is dependent upon terms that Wil l be acceptable alike to. He constitutionalists and the Huerta administration. He recon Ives that the values of All proposals depends upon How far such plans seek to draw the mexican factions top a her in common agreement in a provisional president who can con Voke election or rehabilitate the government machinery in a Way that would be endorsed by the mexican generally. One of the suggestions made to presi Dent Wilson contemplated the sending of a commission of americans of prominence to investigate conditions in Mexico. Unofficial reports have had it that both Carranza and Huerta would receive such a commission. President Wilson is careful l by consider ing the sure estion. Said to have been made Iris finally by Oscar s. Straus former ambassador to Turkey and prominent in the cause of world peace. The president it is kilo Fri would be Slad to Send such a commission if it could assist the mexican factions in arriving at an agreement but it is believed he feels that actual peace proposals must necessarily originate with the mexican factions and that unless the commission were invited to so to Mexico its errand would be fruitless mediation of the same sort previously been by both mexican factions. Credit men Dine address by a. E. Ham on insurance and credit. I a. K. Ham superintendent of insure i Aitch for the province of Manitoba was i the speaker at the monthly banquet of i the Canadian men s association in the Royal Alexandra last evening. I a Large number of the members were present. I or. Ham s subject was insurance in i relation to credits. The basis of credits he said was Good capital and the i Acter of men applying for credit. The credit Meji wielded an unbounded in fluence throughout the province and it was with this class that most of the insurance business was transact de. Great difficulty had Arisen in the past through the misunderstanding of the various insurance contracts which these men had bound themselves to. In a great Many cases the merchants insured their scores and when they applied for the insurance following the burning of their buildings found that their contracts did not cover the cause of the fire and therefore they could not collect from the insurance companies. The reason of this Lay in the fact that a general store could contain a variety of. Articles Many of require special provisions and higher rates for insurance. As Condit ions stood at the present time All proprietors of general stores could obtain insurance on an Ordinary insurance policy. While the agent who wrote the policy might be blamed for Lack of knowledge of conditions the merchant must also receive part of the blame for Lack of education along insurance lines. As a result of both the 1re waste in Manitoba was second Only to British Columbia in the Dominion. Less credit fewer fires. Inasmuch As the greater amount of j business transacted n Che province j was done on a. Credit basis the Assoc a " Tion held the whip hand Over the retail business in Mani Sciba. Or. Ham re commended in every Case where conditions were found to be unsatisfactory the credit be curtailed. Not Only would this be Justice to the storekeepers i themselves but i t was practically a j necessity w Hen citizens whose houses i i adjoined the stores were considered. J the Best Way out of the difficulty i said or. Ham was to have every i traveller sent Oik by m local House act i As an inspector of every store lie visited and at the conclusion of his trip make a report which would be hied away. Or. Ham thought t a t when the storekeepers of that the careless keeping of their stores was destroying their credit they would soon Reform. He did not w i s h t o of misted Erswood. The stores of Mani Toba were As Good As those in other province Only the proprietors failed to protect themselves by their policies. Unlicensed insurance companies. I another danger to look out for was insurance not licensed in the province for while he had no definite know ledge of any such companies operating there were he feared representatives of some such organizations working in the pro Vince. Policies in these companies Wera absolutely valueless in Case the companies wished to ignore the claims. I they were not officially acknowledged and therefore could not be brought i to court. These companies gave cheaper rates butt by should t they said or. Ham. When they tools no risk to eclipse All previous records of the association s Spcia-1 events.
