Unnecessary to Wait for Protocol

Unnecessary to Wait for Protocol.
The memorandum points out that the
problem of supplying troops now more
than 200 miles from the border is a
pressing one and need not be della yed
for the protocol covering the general
subject Gen. Carranzas suggestion as
to modification and additions to the
draft of the protocol are still under
consideration in the State Department.
AS considera Bile time may be required
to bring the agreement into final form,
the American government will ask that
the Immediate question of the use of
the Mexican Northwestern lines be
considered separately and at once.
Administration officials today were
taking steps to aid Gen. Funston in
overcoming difficulties met with in
keeping open a 200-mile supply line to
the American forces In Mexico.

cate that Gen. Pershing's advance base

ditions. For this reason additional i'm

The Secretary said the destruction of
two army aeroplanes had not been ex-
planned as yet to the department. Four

two of the original eight in actual

saw many persons in the water, to
whom rafts or ropes were thrown. Two
