I'VE have four field bakeries in con-

units--field oven with teutage. sponge

bread. Three units constitute what In
known as a section. One unit can be
packed into an escort wagon. Twelve
wagons move an entire bakery. These
ovens can be set up and bread baked
within very short time after arrival
In camp. We can mix the dough and
set up sponge TO rise in moving

Is set up and heated the dough Is

WASHINGTON. May 2.--One of
the recent developments In the Mex

tween Carranza and villa over the
American invasion Of Mexico. Car
rama was quick to resent 1t and Is
lued a note which amounted to a
warning to the United States to
withdraw from Vera Cruz. Villa i'm
inediately made q statement in which
he assured the United States that
he had no intention OF making a cam
paign against this government In
Northern Mexico.
Oarranxa's statement indicated that
the United States might force him to
make common cause with Huerta
against the invader. Villas state
ment showed that he was certain
there could be no cooperation be-
tween the constitutionalists and the
federals. Sinca then there have been

NEGRO DEATH RATE
FROM RACIAL CAUSE

That the high death rate among
negroes is not entirely due to hygi-
enic conditions, or lack Of them, but
may be accounted for by inherent RAJ
cial characteristics, was a theory ad-
vanced at the negro health conference
Friday by DIR. William c. Woodward,
health officer OF Washington. ID. c.,
who attended the conference called
by DR.. Oscar Bowling, president OF
the State board of health. to consider
ways of improving the condition OF
negroes in the South.
DR.. Bowling said at present tho
death rate among negroes Is twenty
eight per thousand. as opposed to
fifteen among white people. This
makes the negroes menace. He
suggested that education was the

The Pandico is off for a cruise on Sat

racing spirit shows in the fishing skifi

so much rivalry between the owners OF
these craft that good race, with
plenty of interest, is always expected.

tend its mains along the unlishted por-
ton Of 10th street extended. whore acci-
dents recently have occurred At night,
District authorities today considered
plans for Immediately lighting tho out

Walter c. Allen. electrical engineer Of

sionsrs q Recommendation that forty-one
1OO-candlepower incandescent lamps be
installed between Piney Branch bridge
and Madison street. Under this plan the
lights would be placed at distances of
$50 feet apart. The department is with
out sufdcient funds to maintain q larger
number Of lamps at this time, it is
stated, but would provide for an in
creased amount OF illumination later.
The gas conmpany's offer. Transmitted
through Howard 8. Reside. president
stated that the work, II ordered. would
be rushed, 80 that eighty-candlepower
gas lights, such as those now on x stree,
northwest, could be installed within q
few weeks.
Mr.. Allen said today that he had beer
at work for some time on plans for equip
ping 18th street extended with electric
lamps. He stated that this type Of light.
ing was considered preferable to gas
lighting on the street in question.
According to officials Of the gas COM
pany, that concern had its offer been ac-
cepted by the Commissioners, would have
sustained a loss Of $1.50 year for each
