MEXICO CITY, April 2O-It was
officially announced today that Mex
ico's new mining law will be made
effective within the next few days
by a decree to be issued by General
Carranza.
The most striking feature of the
new law VIII be its discouragement
of large holdings of undeveloped
claims for purposes of exploration or
exploitation. The present law does
not limit the number of claims which
may he denounced, and some of the
largest mining companies have as
many as 1900. each claim represent
ing one hectare or approximately two
and one-half acres.
The present government believes
that announcements of excessive size
in the case of precious metals to be
detrimental to its interests. and it is
expected that it consequently will put
what is believed to be a prohibitory
tax on such holdings
The new schedule of taxes for re-
gions bearing precious metals will be
based on minimum and maximum
holdings. The first clan will repre-
sent the small mine owners holding
( ten or less claims, who win be called
up to pay an annual tax of six dol
lars Mexican gold, for each claim
The second clan represents the aver
age company, holding ten to fifty
claims. from which an annual tax OF
twelve dollars Mexican gold on eacl
claim will be collected. The third
clan represents the large companie:
holding fifty to one hundred claims
for which the new law provides {

First was the organization of d

Hachita column at the border by
fast automobiles and then led it by
unused routes at high speed to Casas

There the presence of Villa at San

ascertained General Pershing rushed
out three columns to catch him. Poor
guides and a railroad accident re-
suited in the failure of these three
iron fingers to close about Villa
there. They missed him by barely
twenty-four hours.
