SEYMOUR PREDICTS WAR WITH UNITED MEXICANS AS RESULT OF CHASE

War with Mexico is a more likely outcome of the action of President' Wilson In ordering the American troops into Mexico, than the capture of Villa, the Mexican bandit, according to the belief of Dr. Charles Seymour of the University of Wisconsin. ' ; . j He is an authority on Mexican affairs, has studied for several years the political, economic and social conditions in that country and delivered a lecture before the city teachers' institute-at the high school this afternoon. . '

Union May Result. "Any day, any moment, may bring about a complete convulsion in Mexico and there is a good chance of war." Dr. ""Seymour said in an interview this morning. "It is impossible to depend on Carranza'a co-operation. The morbid hatred and dense ignorance of the people may at any time lead to the desertion of his troops to the help of Villa. "It was a dangerous if not disastrous policy to send a handful of men Into Mexico to capture the revolutionary leader. But if it has no other good, the punitive expedition which required two weeks to be formed, proves at least to the people the pitiable state of : unpreparedness of the United States. Predicts Long Chase. "Betrayal by one of his own followers for the sake of the rewards offered for his apprehension is only the remote chance I see for the capture of Villa. At least it will be a long, stern chase and may last a year before he Is run down. "Villa knows every Inch of the country in which he Is hiding and will probably divide his troops into small bands and conduct guerilla t warfare which will last indefinitely. "If the reports that moneyed interests were behind Villa's raid on Columbus, N. M., and are seeking to force Intervention are traced down their origin can be found perhaps In the inability of the present administration to cope with the situation. Perhaps in some of Bryan's Chautauqua utterances. "The bandit is either feared or loved and it is most pfobable that within a short time he and Carranza will be fighting side by side against the United States upheld and supported by the whole Mexican people. Mexico Needs Education. "The underlying troubles of Mexico prevent any hope of permanent peace in' that country, until the United States takes hold of her as we did Cuba and sends her to school, teaching her people the elements of good government, law and order. "There are 100 languages and dialects used by the Mexican people.

They can't understand each other. They know nothing. Mexico has been trying to govern herself for ninety years and has not succeeded. The only two rulers who had any ability were Juarez and Diaz. "A war with Mexico will last longer than most Americans imagine. The country-has an aera about as big. as the war zone of Europe. The people have been fighting for years and are ready for combat with this nation."

AGGRAVATION

An employe can coHect damages, the law provides, even through negligence on his part or through the contributary negligence of a fellow employe, providing the injury is not the result of willful action on his part. When the Rolsin case was heard before Commissioner Hughes in Wayne circuit court, March 8, Attorney B. C. Robbins, representing the American Seeding Machine company, contended that the "willfull injury" section of the law did not merely pertain to the actual commission of a willful injury but to the action of the injured employe in the care of his. injury after the accident occurred. Decision is Important. The interpretation of the "willful injury" section was upheld by Hughes. The ruling of Commissioner Hughes is of utmost Importance to Indiana employers. Evidence was presented by Mr. Robbins at the hearing that after Rolsin was injured he cranked an automobile and did other things in defiance of the physician's orders. Finally an operation was necessary. It was then established that although being ordered to lie on his back in bed Rolsin persisted in sitting upright ajid once got out of bed and danced a jig. Being permanently injured Rolsin might have secured $3,600 damages if it had not been established that he had willfully contributed to the aggravation of his injury.
