Last week they had Villa dead and
buried. Yesterday they had him To-
Gated in the mountains in western
Chihuahua. 1t is also reported that
Carranza has a larger army than the
American forces in pursuit of the out
law. The reports may be taken for
what they are worth. If the bull-headed
Carranza had kept faith with the Unit
ed States government and had not
thrown impediments in the way, the
task of getting Villa would have been
accomplished long ago.

other Dodge Brothers Motor Cars
Were Used to Transport Sup
plies Until Arrival Of Big
Trucks

According to detailed advices now
arriving from the border, Dodge
Brothers motor cars have played a
prominent part in the invasion of
Mexico in pursuit of Villa.
When General Pershing led his
troops across the border he travelled
in Dodge Brothers motor car, and
four other touring cars were used in
the transportation of supplies, These
cars have, of course, been since sup
planted in this work by the big trucks
shipped to Mexico, but the touring
cars are still in use by the army.
According to the transportation de-
partment, they have made wonderful
records in the desert travel after the
fleeing Mexican bandit
Reporting on the performance of
the Dodge Brothers car that carried
Gen. Pershing on the first advance,
an army officer said:
I'VE had practically to make our
own roads and from what the Dodge
Brothers car showed on that trip
believe it could climb a wall. The
car went through mountain passes
and over places where it was neces-
sary for the engineering corps to
blast out a trail before the trucks
coming after could get through at
all" 2Ss
