paper comment on the attitude of So
called German-Americans toward
this country hasn't been altogether
fair. Practically all of them have
been blamed for the attitude of only
the vOciferous few. One reason for
this big mistake as to the American
patriotism of Americans of German
birth or ancestry is that the opinions
of German newspapers is taken as
the opinion of COMMUNICATIONS
Before the war broke out there were
German papers all over the country
that were leading a hand-tovmouth
existence-with few notable excep-
tons. Most of the readers were ED
erly Germans, as the rising genera
ton was educated in the public
schools and read newspapers printed
in the English language. There were
very few big German editors, and cir
cuIation was small. When the war
broke out there was quick increase
in circulation of newspapers printed
in German-in fact a tremendous in
crease. And these editors had a
much larger audience than ever be-
fore, and began to do some big talk
ing. Their appeal was to citizens
who could read German, and they
made what they thought was the
most forceful appeal. Many Of the
editorial utterances were unreason-
ing and smacked of a greater loyalty
to the kaiser than to the United !
States. Some of the foolish editorials |

VILLA BANDS ATTACK CARRANzA / GARR|SONS WITHOUT SUCCESS

Garcia at Parral was having diff culty in transmitting a detailed report of the engagement to General Ire vino at Chihuahua City. The last re- ports, he said, indicated that the ban dits, pursued by Carrancista forces under Generals Domingo Arrieta and Matias Ramos, were retreating toward SOmbreretillo, southeast of Parral, where it seemed possible they might attempt to make a stand
 Indications that conditions in north ern Chihuahua are again becoming normal were shown in the departure today of eight American business men of Chihuahua City for the state cap ital and the brisk shipment of food and clothing into Mexico through the local port as a result of the recent
 lifting of the quasi embargo. The Americans, who fled from Chihuahua at the inception of the recent crisis said that they had been advised they would be in no danger if they re- turned. In connection with the ship ments into Mexico, it was announced by the local collector of customs that for every freight car crossing the bor- der from the north, one must cross
 from the Mexican side, that the bal | ance may be preserved.

NEW YORK, July 11.-Intense heat today added to the burdens of the health authorities in their fight to check the spread of infantile paralysis which took toll of thirty-two lives in the twenty-four hours ending at 10 a. m. The depressing temperature, it was ex- plained, tends to reduce the physical contagion.
 Federal and city health officials took an optimistic view of the situation to- night, notwithstanding the fact that 195 new cases had been reported, on the ground that the cooperative work of the various city departments has re- suited in preventing the epidemic from spreading geographically.
 The campaign to educate dwellers in the densely populated parts of the city that cleanliness is the important pre- ventatiye to the disease is having such excellent results that health officials predicted tonight the usual summer epidemic of typhoid fever will be di- minished considerably.
 Dr. Haven Emerson, health commis- sioner, deplored the undue alarm which is causing anxious parents to confine their children indoors through fears of contagion.
 More children's lives are lost in any real epidemic of measles than will be lost in this whole epidemic" he said
