4 SHIPMENT OFF
FROM JUAREz To
= PERSHINGG'S MEN
RAILROADS ARE TO BE USED
BY OFFICIALS IN A LINZ
TIED WAY ONLY.
VILLA NOT GOING SOUTH
He Is Still Believed to Be How
ering in the Region Around
Namiquipa-He Planned to
Deceive Pursuers.

Ell PASO, March 30.-The first
supplies to be sent by rail to Gen.
Pershing's columns were forwarded
today from Juarez following the per
mission granted by Gen Carranza for
the use Of the Mexico Northwestern
railroad. While army officials here
did not conceal their disappointment
over the first chiefs refusal to permit
full trainlOadS to enter Mexico under
American military guard they were
visibly relieved at the prospect of
using the railroad in even limited
way.
There has been no question here
for some time that the TRANSPORTATION
problem was one of the most serious
faced by Gen. Funston The stories
of soldiers returning from the front
taken in conjunction with the guard
ed admissions by the military author
tiles, confirmed the belief that the
motor truck system had proven in
adequate and that some better way
of provisioning Gen. Pershing's forces
must be found very quickly. Anxiety
is now mainly centered Or what can
be hoped for from the dilapidated
Northwestern railroad. For some
time schedule of only one train in
two days has been maintained be
tween Juarez and Casas Grandes. The
distance is 16S miles and the trip is
made in from twelve to twenty-foUr
hours. A heavily loaded freight train
is expected to take much longer than
this.
One important question upon which
the army officials here are anxious to
obtain light is exactly what interpre-
tation will be placed by the Mexican
officials on Gen. Carranza's instruc-
tions that supplies must be shipped
in the ordinary manner as CONNER
cial freight If this is to mean that
freight will only be forwarded on the
regular trains, officials say the
amount of supplies to reach Gen. Per-
shings base will be very small.
While the railroad situation has
temporarily overshadowed the actual
pursuit of Villa. interest in the case
was revived today by reports that in
stead of being far to the south as was
generally supposed, he was still how
ering in the region around Namiquipa.
The last word from the front was
the statement by Col. Dodd that four
days previously Villa was reported
in the Santa Maria valley, moving to-
wards Santa Caterina. No towns of
the name of Santa Caterina appears
on any available maps of Chihuahua,
but there is a Terrazas ranch of that
name some miles east of FL Vale,
one of the temporary bases of the
American expeditionary force. This
report considerably mystified Ameri-
can observers here, as it would locate
Villa some forty miles northeast of
Namiquipa instead of twice that dis
tance to the south where all pre-
vious reports have placed him.
The explanation which is generally
accepted here is that Villa has adopt
ed a time-honored plan of deceiving
his pursuers. He is believed to have
scattered his fources into several diff
ferent bands Each band travels in
a different direltion dispensing the
information that the chief fugitive
is with it.

faction, press reports saying the Amer
ican cavalry were close upon Villa
and his bandits.
Adyices on the nature and extent
of the revolutionary movement said
to be led by Felix Diaz in Southern
Mexico continue to conflict as to fact.
Diplomatic dispatches today from
European legations in the Mexican
capital said the movement led by
Diaz himself was assuming formida-
bic proportions and was distinctly anti
American
On the other hand. government in
vestigators have reported they have
good reason TO believe Felix Diaz is
not in Mexico at all, but siding in the
United States. probably in New
Orleans

GOOD SENSE AND GOOD LAW

FUDGE KUNKEL has written good
sense as we'll as good law into his
decision regarding a certain piece
of road in Northampton county which
the commissioners of that county were
lendeavoring to foist upon the State
before it had been actually taken over
by the Commonwealth. Judge Kunkel
indicated clearly that when a road
has once been taken over by the Com
monwealth as part of the highway
system the county will be relieved of
the expense thereof, and not before
Simply because a space of disreputable
highway has been included in a gen.
eral highway system is no excuse for
a county to cease to keep it in repair
for public use.
The greatest trouble that the State
Highway Department has had to con-
front is the fact that an enormous sys-
tenn of roads was blocked out before
sufficient funds were provided for
their reconstruction as permanent
highways. AS a result, many counties
and townships have dumped upon the
State miles and miles of roads which
have been impossible most of the time
and absolutely neglected simply be-
cause they were indicated as a part
of the road system to be developed.
Judge Kunkel has cleared the at
mosphere on this point and hereafter
these roads which are to become part
of the State system will not be per-
mitted to deteriorate while the State
is preparing to take them over and
make them part of the main system
of highways.
The particular controversy which
brought the matter tS the attention of
the court was a mandamus by the
Commissioners of Northampton county
to compel the State Highway De-
partment to construct and maintain
a piece of road leading from Nazareth
to Bethlehem. 1t is said to be one of
the most atrocious stretches of high
ways in Pennsylvania and it will now
be up to the Northampton County
Commissioners to put it into good
condition.

A LAST WORD

Just one last word on the high
y school loans-both for Harris
burg and the West Shore:
Do you. Mr.. Older Voter, remember
how hard it was for you to get the
little education that the public schools
of your day gave?
There was the short winter term in
the little red school house, and your
father had to buy your books. There
was the so-called summer school"
for which either you or your parents
paid-in addition to purchasing neces-
sary books and school supplies.
Your father paid his taxes and pur-
chased the books and paid tuition for
a part of the term.
Compare conditions then with those
that are planned for the new high
schools. Ten months school, no extra
tuition fees for summer school,"
nothing to pay for books-not even
a slate pencil or tablet to buy.
And all for what.
Why, for the man who does not own
property, for a dollar a year school
tax.
Vote for the high school loans and
increase the buying power of that
dollar a year.
