Senate Committee Said to Fa.
vor Action in Mexico.
MANY WITNESSES HEARD
Conclusion Reached That Orozco Has
Been Handicapped Because Law, Not
Enforced When Madero Was a Rebel,
Is Being Enforced Now.

Los Angeles, Sept. 3O.-The Unitet
States senate subcommittee appointed
to investigate relations with Mexict
has completed its work.
While its members are noncommitta
as to the report which they will sub
init to the senate committee on for
eign relations, Senator William Alder
Smith, chairman of the committee
says that 1t will embody evidence
showing that since the beginning oi
the Madero revolution large quantities
of munitions Of war have been shipped
into Mexico across the American Dor.
der.
The report, it is 81 id, will hold that
the evidence adduced points to the
necessity for the United States to in.
tervene in Mexico in ordS| that Amer.
leans and American interests may re
ceive proper protection.
The committee has been In continu
ousssession since Sept. l and has in.
terrogated 500 persons and taken the
testimony of seyenty-five witnesses
Speaking of the testimony Senator
Smith said:
The testimony of every Mexican
whom We interrogated agreed upon
this one point:
THAT If arms, ammunition and sup
plies needed in warfare were per.
mitted to enter the country during the
Orozco rebellion, as they were during
the Madero revolution, Orozco would
have been in Mexico City long ago.
The rigid enforcement of the law
against the admission into Mexico of
firearms and ammunition has been
Orozco's greatest handicap"
during the last two years, mainly dur
ing the Madero revolt, 10.000,000l
rounds of ammunition went into Mex
leo from El Paso and $4,000 rounds
from Los Angeles. II also shows that
from FL Paso 10000 rifles had been
sent across the border and from Los
Angeles 100. Ii was further shown
that more than 500 tons of dynamite
had been shipped into Mexico during
the revolutionary periods. The dyna.
mite has been used for mining as well
as for the blowing up of bridges.
dynamite is permitted to go into Mex
leo at the present time.
