Epidemic is Threatened.

Unless New Mexico enforces
the compulsory vaccination law
fn every school precinct and
takes the strictest precautions
there may be danger of a small
pox epidemic in the spring.
Conditions favor it. Not only
in Dona Ana county have a
number of cases appeared but
also at the other end Of the
state, where at the coal camp Of
Dawson, the number Of cases
has been increased. Sporadic
cases are reported from other
sections. The chief center oi
injection, of course, is Mexico
and because Of the unsettled
conditions there, more and more
refugees are arriving in New
Mexico bringing with them in
lection.

Lack Of Information
is Excuse For Delay
Number of Vessels to be Sent South not
Made Public; Land Forces May be
Used if Found Necessary.

Washington, Dec. l5.-Pre-
sident Wilson and his cabinet
decided today to send American
warships to the Canal Zone to
guard against violations Of neut-
rality there by belligerent ships.
Just how many ships and
whether destroyers or cruisers or
battleships shall be dispatched
will be determined after a full
report has been received from
Colonel Goethals, military gov
ernor Of the Canal Zone and
Captain Rodma, naval officer at
the canal.
Both Secretary Garrison and
Secretary Daniels made it clear
today that the delay in acting
on the request Of Colonel Goeth-
ais for two destroyers was due
| to a lack of information. Mr.
Garrison explained that the col
onel had sent two messages oi
inquiry on the latter point, Col
onel Goethals explained that the
wireless regulations were being
violated in canal waters and re-
ferred to the misuse Of the Canal
Zone as a base Of supplies.
The war department agalr
asked for specific instances o
what had occurred, but tonigh
Ino further information had beer
received. On a full explana
ltion of conditions in the Cana
Zone, depends exactly what ac
ton will be taken and unde
what departmental jurisdiction
If the Canal Zone is being
used as a base Of supplies, Col
onel Goethals will be instructed
TO use his land forces to preven
such violations. Should it de
velop that the wireless is benz
used within territorial waters
the navy department will as

officers, as the question OF wire

Berlin, Dec. 15---Among the
items given out today by the

following:
"The English naval periodic

gram from the radio officer at
the Canal Zone shows that he is
on the job. He says: For

lier, at Balboa, Canal Zone
"Destroyers or other ships
will be sent to the Canal Zone
at any moment when needed to

of the cruisers now on the west
coast Of Mexico will be sent to
the zone instead Of destroyers.
