z y face Of the recognition Of car
rama in Mexico by the Pan-Amer-
= lean conferees at Washington, re-
ported as momeutarily Impending, Cen
Francisco Villa, commander in chief OF
the .ConventiOnalist forces IN the
north. Friday night brought forWaru
a new plan for the restoration OF a
civil government in his reNoluuon I4u-
den country -,,,.
A republican form Of government
with exactly half the offices held DS
representatives Of the CONSTITUTIONS
list" faction and the other halI occo-
pied eguitably by representatives %
The 'COnventionalist' faction, with d
president selected by joint congress OF
the Carranza and Villa leaders IN tllS
person Of a strong man aosoIutely 10 II s
from political bias constitutes VIVA
new plan outlined in brief IN per-
sonal interview aboard his private NIL
itarv car through the medium OF Gen.
Juan y. Medina as interpreter
Appears Eating n Pear.
Cen villa appeared from his inner
office at just 4-30 p m FRIDAY laush-
ing like a boy and munchlng on a pear
while he greeted half a score OF OIL
GERS and friends whom he had not
seen for several weeks
His suit OF khaki was new one, ms
Stetson was fresh and ne wore a soLt
collared shirt which was tWlsteu
around a little sideWise at the neck,
with no tie 10 adorn it. No sooner had
he made his appearance IN the aAteL
part of his car than military DaLlu
of 81 pieces swung into seiecIlon
outside on the tracks, ranged IN q Dis
hollow square The general sat In the
open window in plain view OF SvU rds
ged people who thronged ABOUT 10
see him.
It was during the intermissiOn that
a renorter from The Herald inter-
viewed Gen. Villa, always asking ques-
lions by way OF Gen Medina, who
asked them again in Spanish OF ms
chief and then translated the answers
for publication
sCarranza Does Net Represent People"
-Carranza and his government do not
represent the poor people said zen
villa at all times in his replies
s-Carranza controls only where ms
troops are actually stationed HAIR a
mile. a mile, two miles from Carranla
soldiers. we Of the COnVenuOnallsL
government and military forces get al
our information from the poor people
who see their hopes carried forward
by the 'Convenuonallsr army, and VINO
hate Carrauza and his reacuonarles-
sI do not understand how the Pan
American cOnferees can come to recoS-
nize CarranZa- He represents the same
faction which DiaZ and Huerta DID,
and until the interests OF the poor peo-
pie are considered in Mexican govern
ment, there viii be no peace
ssCnr-anza Represents MonOpOlies."
"CarranZa represents much for the
stockholders and the big mOnied in
terests in Mexico. for the mOnOpOneS
but he represents nothing for the poor
people. They would be against Car
rama for life
IF the Pan-American conferees rec
ognize CarranZa. they only open the
vvav for anarchy in Mexico, for Car
rama means favoritsm for the monied
nterests-nCthing for the common
people who have been oppressed BY
despotic government in Mexico under
Diaz- and would have been under HUI
erta had he, By any miracle, been able
to establish q stable government when
he was in the presidential chair
SAYS He Represents Poor People.
Peace will come TO Mexico only |
when the poor people and their inter- I
ests are recognized. The Convention
alists' represent the poor people Car /
rancistas are the same as CtenCf1cOS-
Surprise also comes to me that the
Pan-American cOnferees could think Of
recognizing CarranZa and his forces. I
when they look at the map NIhsta
forces are everywhere in Mexico, and
where there are no Viilista soldiers
and no Carrancista soldiers, the poor
people are for villa and the 'ConTen-
tionalist government For proof OF
this 1 point out to you the fact that
we can so to within half a mile, a
mile or two miles Of the Carranza
lines and get full information from the
common people, who help Us Willingly
says His Troops Everywhere.
'Conventionalist troops are in all OF
Sonora all Of Chihuahua state ana
scattered through the state OF Guerrero, /
Chiapas- Campeche, Topic, JaliscO. Goa !
hula. Durango. Nucatan. san Luis PO-
tosi Tamaulipas- SinalOa and Lower /
California with some few in Neracruz- /
Zapata- is in the south central part OF 4
Mexico. CarranZa may control all the I
state capitals except two, but that does /
not mean anything. Where the lines /
of his military camps leave off, Villa I
and -ConVentionalist' government sym
pathizers are to be found everywhere.
Ny forces are south as far as Esca- /
Ion, below Jimenez and at Sierra Mo
iada- In the Parral district are the (
troops formerly commanded by Tomas I
Urbina and Manner ChaO, loyal to our 1
-Conventionalist' cause But the big !
gest force behind the 'ConventiOnalist' 1
government is the common people, the I
poor who have been down trOdden for 4
so long under despotic rule in Mexico. !
This force will win against such a re-
