on Chinese policy was forecast at the
White House today although Presi-

ford all protection in its power to

however, that the existence of British
concessions in China without any
similar American territoriality respon-

Further precautionary steps to in-
sure the safeguarding of American
lives in China were revealed with to-
day's withdrawal of 500 marines from

In Congress the House foreign af-

resolution calling for conciliatory
action by the United States towards
China on the unequal treaty question

other government. It will go before
the House for action, opening the wayI
for general debate on the Chinese
crisis.
An administration Chinese policy

Kellogg in the next few days. It will

CHICAGO, Jan. 25.-Members of the
"Big Sixty" of the Western Confer-
ence, invited to meet here Friday and
Saturday to discuss the football sit-

night to discuss their views on a
I "round robin" schedule arrangement,I
with the exception of George Little,
athletic director of the University of

He expressed a doubt that the
"round robin" schedule would even

lyting.
The principal problem submitted to

representatives by Maj. John L. Grif-,

MEXICO CITY, Jan. 25. -
Though apparently p 1 e a s e d,
Aaron Saenz, the Mexican for-
eign minister, declined to com-
ment when shown a dispatch
announcing that the Unitedi
States Senate had unanimously
adopted the Robinson resolution
proposing arbitration of the dif-
ficulties between the United
States and Mexico arising out
of the new oil and land laws.
Government circles, in general,
however, received the news
with distinct satisfaction and
regarded it as an encouraging
omen. Foreign office officials
pointed out that the Mexican
government had already formally
declared its readiness to accept
arbitration in principle, but
they were not in a position to
speculate on future possibilities.
Some officials while gratified,
remarked they were not sur-
prised at the Senate's action, as
they believed it represented
the desire of the people of the
United States to adjust the Mexi-
can question peacefully, which
also was the desire of the Mexi-
can people.

I NASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Taking
its first direct stand on the Mexican
question, the Senate today unanim-
ously advised President Coolidge to
arbitrate the pending controversy
with Mexico over that republic's oil
and land laws.
I Every-one of the 79 senators present,
42 Republicans, 36 Democrats and the
1 Farmer-Labor, voted for the resolu-
tion of Senator Robinson, of Arkan-
sas, the Democratic leader, as revised
last week by the foreign relations
committee.
Several, however, approved the res-
olution . with reservations, either on
the ground that it constituted an in-
terference with the powers of the
chief executive or might encourage
the Mexican government to the adop-
rtionof an even stronger policy than
heretofore enforced.
Reed Keeps Silence
Senator Reed, Democrat, Missouri,
who voted against the resolution in
committee, had been looked to for
leadership in opposition to Senate ac-
tion, and had prepared a speech, but
deferred its delivery until tomorrow.
He advised the Senate late in the day,
when members were demanding a
vote, that he would detain it no longer
and left the chamber.
Some blunt words, directed appar-
ently at both the American and Mex-
ican governments, were used by those
foremost in urging favorable action
by the Senate on what was described

Senator Robinson declared there
were only two courses othet than ar-
bitration-severance of diplomatic re-
lations, with resulting revolution and
the eventual overthrow of the Calles
government and intervention by arm-
ed forces of the United States which
-would mean war.
The Arkanasrsenator warned that
if American troops marched into Mex-
ico they would remain not for a single
year, but for the lifetime of even the
youngest senator in the chamber.
Declaring that the United States
had been "most patient and lenient"
with Mexico, Senator Lenroot, of Wis-
consin, a Republican on the foreign
relations committee, said that unless
Mexico 'fulfilled her international-ob-
ligations a diplomatic break would
come and the embargo on the ship-'
iment of arms to Mexico would be
lifted.
Decrying the failure of the Amer-
ican government to protect life and
property in Mexico, Senator King,
Democrat, Utah, said he was certain
there would be no war with Mexico
because he was convinced the great
majority of the American pepple
would not support such a war.
Heflin Renews Charges
During the more than four hours
debate on the resolution, Senator Hef-
lin, Democrat, Alabama, renewed his
charges that "certain Catholics" were
'trying, to get the United States into
war with Mexico and defended himself
for calling this to the attention of the
j Senate. 1
Replying to recent criticism by
Senator Heflin, Representative Boy-
Ian, Democrat, New York, said his
resolution last February proposing
severance of diplomatic relations with
Mexico was offered in the hope that
Mexico would see "the error of her
'ways."~
Boylan said that if Heflin would
"cease his vaporings, the country will
keep out of war."
Representative Gallivan, Democrat,
Massachusetts, told the House that the
United States must "either fish or
cut bait in Mexico pretty soon de-
!spite all the lungs in Alabama and
Idaho," referring to Hefli and Chaiir-
man Borah, of the Senate foreign re-
lations committee.
House Considers Action

that the House endorse the Pres-
ident's Nicaraguan-Mexican policy.
