Troops to Have 24-Hour
Start When News Comes
By JOHN EDWIN NEVIN,
Staff Correspondent of International
News Service.
WASHINGTON, March 14.—The
grpodiuon “to get Villa" starts into
Mexico to-day. Tue hour of depar
ture, make-up of the column and di
rection fn which it goes will be with
held. The censorship is to be COMy
plete in order that the object of the
expedition will not be defeated.
It was said at the War Department
early to-day that no report yet had
been received of the starting of .the
column. It was also pointed out that
none need be made; that General
Funston and General Pershing have.
authority to do what they please. And
it was admitted that if they failed to
report movements until they were
well under way, the Secretary of War
and the general staff will be just as
well pleased.
Inasmuch as it has been accepted
that the punitlve expedition will be
given at least 24 hours’ lead on all iis
movements, it was not expeoted that
u::ay announcement would be permit
t until the troops were hot on the
scent of the bandits,
Lansing Takes Rest.
Bocrttur_vg State Lansing was en
route to Pinfhurst, N. C,, to-day for a
rest. Before leaving he made it plain
that he expe-ted no real trouble with
Carmanza. The American aceaptance
of the original Carranza suggestion,
coupled with the official statement {s
sued on hehalf of the President, in the
opinion of the Becretary, not alone
legaiizes the expedition against Villa,
but is of a character that will prove
acceptable to the “First Chief”
The President's acceptance of the
Carranza agreement has had a most
beneficial effect, it was admitted by
Acting Secretary of State Polk, fol
lowing a conference with President
Wilson, though he made it clear that
&0 far he had received no direct word

-z:u throughout Northern Mexico
report that conditions show materinl
improvement, and there was an air of
confidence about the State Depart
ment that the situation was getting
better.
- Army Menr See Trouble.
That view, however, is not held by
the majority of the army officers who
have had border experience. They
insist that Vilia sympathizers and
leaders of the anti-American agita
tion in Mexico will continue their ef
forts to stir up trouble. The word has
GQuietly gone forth that real trouble
may be expected in the Brownsville
district so soon as the details of the

reaches there. But on_how good au

they do not know,
But it 1s not alone from Carranzista
forces that trouble was feared by the

It was reported from a Mexican
source that Villa might chapge- his

of the border secretly are pledged to
the plan of SBan Diego. This contem
plates the seizure of a strip of terri
tory from the United States. These
agents of the Department of Justice
are scattered all along the border in
order to keep close track of all of
these persons,
The Government intends that every
move of the men known to be pledged
to the plan is checked and at the firgt
hostile movement these men will be
arrested. The Magonistas, who are
the leaders of the plan, are declared
to have agents all along the interna
tional boundary, and it is reported
here that they aided Villa in his.at
tack upon Columbus,
At the same time gecret agents of
the Government are conducting a gen
eral investigation in the United States
of thé activities of certain Mexican
sympathizers who in the past have
furnished Villa with eash and muni
tlons. These men, it is understood,
have faveored action by Villa that
would forée general intervention by
the United States. At the White
House and the State Department it
was stated to-day that the efforts to
make trouble between General Car
ranza and the Administration have
been traced directly to this group.
It was expected that this matter
would be considered at to-day's Cabi
net meeting and the question of how
action would he taken against the
leaders in the movement discussed,
The President is said already to have
asked the Attorney General whether it
would not be possible to indict those
responsible for this movement.
One of the questions seriously con
fronting the Administration to-day
was the matter of rnmn, funds for
the punitive expedition. Not only wiil
much cash be required for troop
movements, but, as a preeaytionary
measure, the Qunrtermnter‘s%)opart«
ment must arrange to hold rolling
stock In readiness for the transpor
tation of the national guardsmen to
the border, should that be necessary.
Already motor trains are being con
tracted for for immediate delivery and
offictals are seeking additional aero
planes for purchase,

It is also expected even If the
Pershing expedition should aceom
plich its obrct within a brief period
the effect of the present asitation will
be felt in Congress. No matter what
action is taken on the general pre
paredness program, officials felt con
fident to-day that authority at least
to double the strength of the regular
army will be granted very soon.
At the State Dn{urtmont it was ex
pected that the telegram of Becretary

would be delivered to General Care

' TROOPS BEHIND SANDBAG BARRICADE
Photograph shows a detachment of United States infantrymen behind a hastily constructed sandbag barricade. On account
of the sandy nature of the soil along the Mexican border it has been found that trench digging is difficult on aceount of the continual
sliding of the loose sand. For this reason when a hasty defense works is essential the troops throw up mounds which are topped
with sand bags. This affords good security, and the soldiers use the openings between the bags as loopholes to fire through at the
enemy. 3

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair
Rt
If you want to keep vour hair in
good conditiow, be careful what voua
wash it with,
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkalf. * This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (which 18 pure and en
tirely greaseless), {s much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can’t possibly injure the hair.
Simply molsten your hair with wu-\
ter and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and ex
cessive oil. The hair driegquickly and
evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky,
bright, fluffy and easy to manage. |
You can get mulsified coroan\g 01l
at .most any drug store. It is ery
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the famly tor
months.—Advertisement, 1

New Mexico Senator Declares
Mexicans Are All Alike and
Must Be Put Down.
By ALBERT F. FALL,
United 'States Senator From New
Mexico.
WASHINGTON, March 14.—A1l
Mexicans are Mexicans—whether
at the moment followers of Car
ranza, Villa, Zapata, Obregon,
Cabrera, Herrara, or any one of
the dozen other so-called leaders. .
They look alike, they think alike,
they acot alike.
If, as seems probable, the Car
ranzista forces are unable to pre
vent resistance being offered to
the United States troops seeking
Villa and his band, it behooves
the United States Government to
take into consideration the fact
that their ahnounced “punitive
expedition” will presently develop
into nothing less than war with
Mexico.
To wage war successfully in a
country like Mexico, the elemen
tal necessity is a great superiori
ty of numbers at the outset. To
understand the reason it is nec
essary to understand Mexico.
The average Mexican, this mo
ment, is flrmly convinced that
conquest of the United States by
Mexico is well within the bounds
of possibilities. He believes that
Mexican forces are at this mo
ment in possession of a broad
strip of territory extending from
eastern Texas to Southern Cali
fornia. He thinks we, as a nation,
are lacking in all the qualities
that g 0 to make men; that we are
cowards at heart and unable to
defend ourselves against their
might.
One Defeat Fatal.
We can clinch this opinion by
our actions, if we send into Mex
ico anything less than a prepon
derantly superior foree of ade
quately equipped soldiers. Let
the Mexicans score one victory,
however relatively unimportant,
and our task will be made insu
perably greater than if from the
beginning we show the Mexicans
that we are unbeatable.
The resolution I introduced in
the Senate on the day of the at
tack on Columbus would permit
this Government to take the nec
essary steps to make Its action
in Mexico short and stccessful,
with a minimum sacrifice of men
and money.
It calls for 500,000 volunteers.
The number is not extravagant.
To accomplish what it will be nec
essary to accomplish before order

is re-established in Mexico, an
+ army of less size invites unneces
sary losses. .
The reason so large a force is
necesdary is primarily because of
the size and nature of the coun
try. The restoring of order in
Mexico is a task that means first
of all a squelching of every one of
the scores of bandits and their
gangs, The one way to accom
plish this end is to seize every
line.of communication in Mexico.
Serious Difficulties Ahead,
If the Government, however,
persists in adhering to its pres
ent policy of sending a very much
smaller detachment of troops
into Chihuahua, with the avowed
purpose of catching Villa and his
band, it will quickly encounter
serious difficulties.
In the first place, how is a mil- -
itary commander to know the dif
ference hetween Carranzistas and
Villistas?
They look alike, they are equal
ly ragged, equally treacherous.
Is a regiment to march® blindly
into an ambuscade because as
surances have bheen given that
the artillery and, machine guns
commanding it are manned by
Carranzistas?
With such a force we should
not only accomplish our purposs
in the least possible time, but we
should solve that even greater
problem, preparedness. .
At one expense, and under the
most favorable conditions, wae
should have at the end of a very
ehort time an army of 500,000
trained veterans, to act for years
to come as a highly efficient re
serve in the event of war with a
first-class power.
If we go into Mexico with in
sufficient forces, a good many
brave men are going to get badly
hurt.
These ars the facts of the case.
They are the results of more than
30 years’ study of Mexico and the
Mexican people. It rests with
the future to prove their correct
ness.
