One cent postage promises to be
one Of the live issues to be fought out
in the regular session Of congress.
No fewer than a dozen bills already
have been introduced. and 1t is said
about half Of these provide for penny
postage outright. 1t Is pointed out
by members in the general subject
that the probable large increase in
the parcel post revenue would make
penny postage possibility without
seriously hampering the financial af-
fairs of the postal service. Others
contend that the parcel post service
should be given further opportunity
to demonstrate its earning capacity
before a possible large revenue loss
to the department Is incurred. Sem
ator Burton Of Ohio has a measure
that provides for a first class rate Of
/ cent per ounce. Several other bills
establish the one cent rate where de-
livery is to be made within the limits
of the postoffice where the matter was
mailed. Estimates totaling $306, 6,000,-
900 for the postal service for the
next fiscal year have been submitted
by Postmaster General Burleson to
congress. This total, II embodied as
framed in accordance with the growth
of the postoffice department, would
make the greatest appropriation ever
made in a single appropriation. meas
ure. Hearings on the administrative
provisions of the bill, together with
bills. recently introduced by Chair
man Moon Of the house committee on
postoffices, regarding parcel post in
Identification, extension Of money or
der paying business in every postof-
fee and other matters will be held by
the committee next week. The esti-
mates contemplate a substantial ex-
tension Of the parcel post service,
which branch Is credited with large
part of the surplus Of S4,500,000 earn
ed by the parcel post service for the
fiscal year just closed.

Juarez. South of Juarez for IS or 20
miles, there are no rebel soldiers.
Villa. says he has some further south

Villa captured a number Of Federal
field pieces and military train. He
said yesterday that he captured 500
Federals. Today he brought less than

A trip over the battlefield today re-

Two newly y-made graves were seen
near Mesa. where Villa had his head
