bill was far-reaching. he declared, and
prepared in sane and safe way, not
going TO extremes on either side. The
only real opponents to its plans, he
added, must come from "those who
oppose any measure of preparedness
at ALL"
In fixing 10000 men as the
strength of the army, he said, the
committee had gone to what War De-
partment officials had testified was the
limit of peace time recruitment. A
force of 250,000 regulars would mean
compulsory service, to which the
country was opposed. and an annual
expenditure of S750,0OO,00O for the
army alone.
"Of course" Mr.. Hay said. "If it
came to war, Congress would go to
any extent" Applause greeted the
statement.
Representative Kahn interrupted to
point out that the bill provided for a
peace strength of 10000 fighting
men, in the imminence OF war the
President could bring it up to more
than 10000 exclusive of auxiliary
troops.

Revolt Threatened
Rumors of disaffection and revolt
among the Carranza troops are plenti-
full here as there are people to spread
them, but all reliable information is to
the effect that thus far at least the
first chief and his lieutenants have
maintained strict order. There seems
no question that a considerable por-
ton of the Mex can people bitterly re-
sent the presence of American troops
in their country. but as far as is known
they have shown their hostility by no
overt act.
The twelfth Mexican suspected of
activities was arrested here last night
and placed in Jail with the eleven
other former generals and cabinet
members of Villa. Maneuvers of
Villas friends in FL Paso seem to be
mainly concerned with the dissent
nation of sensational reports rejecting
upon the supporters of Carranza and
intended to provoke ill feeling between
them and the Americans.

War Department Refuses
to Make Public Dispatches
Received From Mexico
By associated Press

Washington, d. c.. March 17.-The
eyes of administration officials centered
to-day on the desert plains of northern
Mexico where Brigadier-G John
j. Pershing is leading American troops
in pursuit of Francisco Villa and his
band of outlaws.
The censorship surrounding the
movement of the expedition was so
strict that up to an early hour to-day
not single dispatch from the Ameri-
can columns had been made public by
the War Department since the an
nouncement of Wednesday night that
they had crossed the international
boundary line.
A long code message from General
Funston came to the department late
lat night, but Secretary Baker declared
that it contained no news of impor-
tance and would not make it public.
Unofficial advices from the border
said that Villa and his men are far to
the south of the American forces.
Army officials believe that it probably
will take several days for the Ameri-
can pursuers, aided by the Carranza
soldiers. to cross the desert and over
take the bandits. They do not expect
clash for several days.
Official advices from diplomatic rep
resentatives in Mexico reported con-
ditions as generally quiet. There were
some signs of unrest in the Tampico
district. however
Overnight dispatches received by
Acting Secretary Polk of the State De-
partment and Secretary Baker were
oitimistic. The text of none was made
public but it was said by officials that
the Mexican situation seemed entirely
satisfactory.
President Wilson received the re-
ports before the cabinet meeting. The
administration believes the danger of
active opposition by Carranza forces
is growing less.
Consul Silliman's dispatch from
General Carranza's headquarters re-
viewed the favorable sentiment there.
