AMERICAN HEADQUARTERS NEAR CASAS GRANDES, April g. (SpeciaD D-Transportatio ton is the big gest and most serious problem of tnr chase after NillT.
 At present the punitive expedition into Mexico is using on it's line of communication about two hundred wa gOns and sixty motor trucks. Because of the lack of forage these convey ances are engaged largely in bringing in grain and hay for the horses, for unless the horses are kept in good condition the success of the movement would te ieopardzed.
 Mainta ming a line of 'communica : ton more than two hundred miles long is itself an immense and com plicated job. In the civil war no such a line was maintained or such diff culties encountered. Gen. Sherman before he reached Atlanta, had a line of less than 1S2 miles and later had the use of a railroad. and later had ing Atlanta lived off the country through which he marched.

27 PACKARDS IN
 U. $. TRUCK TRAIN

Twenty seven Packard trucks are now in use carrying supplies and army equipment along the lines of communi- cation from Columbus, x. M., the base of American troops, to CaSaS GrandeS and probably beyond that point.
 The trucks were fitted with army transport bodies in Fl Paso upon their arrival there from the factory, and went to Columbus under their own power, in charge of the thirty three Packard men who volunteered for army service. Mail matter received from members of the truck company indi- cates that the trucks reached Columbus on March 27.
 A special repair shop truck fitted complete with tools, a lathe, forge, an vii and complete set of repair parts, followed the original shipment, leaving the factory March 3l. This truck also reached Columbus, where it probably will be stationed. Another man, sent with this truck, brings the total number of Packard men now in the service of the government up to 34.
 The meager information that has come from the country where the search for Villa is in progress tells only that the boys are all right" and that the Packards are standing up per fectly under the terrific conditions inn posed by Mexican desert and noun tain roads.
