DOlNGS IN The AUTO WORLD
New England VIII Attract Many Tourists This Sea-
son-Local Auto Parties Journey to Rocky Point

Trapman. war correspondent Of the
London Daily Telegraph, gave the fol-
lowing essential features OF the guo-
ceszfui army motor truck:
Good ground cIearances A strong
hook or ring In front and rear for
towing purposes-" Captain Trapman

and the bridge over II has been de-
stroyed. -Sprage to hold the vehicle

"A couple OF months after the pres
emit war had started the experience Of
the armies at the front discovered q
good many undesirable features in
the ordinary motor car OF commerce
as regards its applicability for active
tor truck writer at the front sent
home a number OF articles, crfticising
the construction Of motor trucks, and
adding to Captain Trapman's recon-
mendation other features. including
the desirability OF four speed trans
mission, a differeutial lock, q rela-
lively small high-speed motor, a large
and easily filed gasoline tank, inter
changeable carbureter and magnetic,
drain cocks on the radiator and on
the water jacket Of the motor, etc.
Everybody knows that for some
years the various European nations
have subsidized commercial motor
trucks for army service. Ii was only
to be expected that the leading army
authorities should favor certain types
OF construction and design that lend
themselves to more efficient service of
the trucks In active use Thus the
British government placed the oficiaI
ban on motor trucks with double side
chain drive. and required a certain
amount of interchangeabflity and also
standardized control. so that a drfy-
er would ind himself equally efficient
on any and all makes of trucks to

struction on such items as fuel tank.

ATTITUDE OF GERMANY

WASHINGTON. June 12-The refer
ence made by President Wilson in his
hrst note TO Germany regarding the
sinking OF the Lusitania to the "hu-
name and enlightened attitude hitherto
assumed by the imperial German gov
eminent In matters of international
right, and particularly with regard to
the freedom OF the seas" was based, 1t
was learned. on the instructions Of
August 3. 1914. which the German
government sent to Its naval COM
manders. The Presidents purpose was
to show complete change of the Ger
man attitude over the treatment OF
neutral shipping during the war. The
German prize rules now are in the
possession of the State Department
and perhaps will figure specifically in
future diplomatic correspondence on
the subject OF the Lusitania, should
there be no breach of relations.
While no mention is made In the
rules OF submarine warfare. the extent
and method OF the exercise Of the
right OF search and the stoppage of
ships is prescribed with precision, and

INVITES CONFERENCE
OF MEXICAN LEADERS

Ell PASO. TEN, June l2.-General
villa. In note to President Wilson.
expresses Willingness ito invite a new
union Of all Mexicans to work
together to insure the triumphs Of the
revolutionary principles, especially the
agrarian problem and the extension
OF instruction among the poorer
classes"
Another signed by villa has been
dispatched to Carranza. asking the lat
ter to agree to conference of lead
ers in Mexico Ito unite and reorgan-
ize." The note says propositions are
being placed before Emiliano Zapata
and Rogue Gonzales Cara.
villa will not discuss the reported
ousting of Garza from power at Mexi-
co City.
The communication to President Will
son and General Carranza were form
ulatcd at meeting of Villa and his
stan at Aguascalicntes.
Villa, in his invitation for confer
ence. points out two reasons for his
action. First. that unless the Consti-
tutionalists reorganize the govern
ment, the Cientincos tDiaz party)
will again get control under the guiss
of another name; and, second. unless
conditions In Mexico improve. the
United States will intervene.
INVITATION REQUESTS
AN EARLY REPLY
The invitation requests an early re-
ply. that preliminaries for the confer
ence. II agreed to, may be arranged
No place for holding the meeting is
suggested.
Villas reply to President Wilson is
friendly. 1t explains that villa makes
the statement in his own name believ-
ing he can affirm II "in the name Of all
factions whose political tendencies are
represented by the conventionalist gov
eminent and supported by the armies"
under his command.
Villa declares he was impelled to
reply because of Mr.. Wilson's high
spirit of Justice and the consideration
and respect in which he is held both in
side and outside his own country. es-
pcciaily by the middle class and poor
people OF Mexico. a consideration and
respect which I also hold for him"
Villa then reviews the assassination
of Madero and Suarez and the efforts
OF the Constituencies to overthrow
the Huerta regime. He refers to the
moral aid given by the people of the
United States" in these circumstances
for which he expressed the gratitude OF
the Mexican people.
II am pleased to know" says the
Villa note further. that President Will
son recognizes that the American
people and the American government
have no right to take any part in the
settlement of our internal affairs"
Villa characterizes as "d!sgraceful"
the division among Constitutionalist
leaders after the triumph against
Huerta. which he attributes in part to
personal ambitions of some PERSONS"
but declares that certain principles

definitely without laws. reduced us to
the most outrageous anarchy in the
capitaf; that II was the lack of
sense OF responsibility by Senior Car
rama that brought us to strained rela-
tons with countries friendly to u.s."
The note reviews the request OF the
chiefs of the Division OF the North and
different army corps. backed by n great
portion OF the civil population, that the
first chief of the Constitutionalists act
as President ad interim open courts
and call a general election to organize
Constitutionalist civil government. 1t
declares that. instead. a military con-
Vention was convoked, and reviews tho

quent events.

are protected in territory under his

government has developed instruction
