FL Paso, May If the United
States troops are withdrawn from
Mexico because of the uItimatum from
Minister of War Obregon of the de
facto government it will be contrary
to the recommendations and advice
of Major Generals Hugh L. Scott and
Frederick Funston.
1t can be authoritatiyeIy stated that
at the conference in Juarez General
Scott, in answer to Obregons de.
mands, read the joint report made by
General Funston and himself to Wash
ington week ago.
That report recommended the
troops remain III Mexico and continue
operations until the purpose of the ex-
pedition had been accomplished.
1t stated that a lack of the prom.
fsed cooperation from the Constitu-
t1onal forces had greatly hampered
General Pershing's columns, and ask
ed authority to employ such measures
as were necessary to the success of
the expedition.
Situation Not Changed.
When General Scott had concluded
reading copy of the report to Cen
eral Obreg0n, he said
That was the position we took
after careful survey of the situation.
We have not changed our minds All
that We can do is to report your at
titude to the secretary of state and
to the secretary of war Any
change in the plans of the expedition
ary forces must come from Washing
ton"
Obregon Demands Up to Cabinet.
Washington, May lit became
apparent the administration is deeply
concerned over the progress of the
conferences being held in Juarez and
Ell Paso between Generals Scott and
Funston and A1varo Obregoa, minister
of war for the Carranza de facto gov
ernment of Mexico
Detailed reports of Saturdays con-
ference, received at once from Gen
eral Scott were studied closely by
President Wilson and Secretary of
War Baker. 1t is believed Secretary of
State Lansing also received copies Of
the report, which was filed by General
Scott as soon as possible after the
session at JuareZ.
American Demands.
Ell Paso, May Following are the
american demands to be insisted upon
hy Generals Scott and Funston in
their conference with Minister of War
Gbregon of Mexico:
Open and effective cooperation of
The Carranzistas with the Americans.
Extension of the American lines in
20 Mexico at least as far south as Ca
cas- Grandes and probably farther.
Relegation to the American military
the duty of policing "a northern zone"
consisting of the territory directly
south of the international boundary.
Policing of the remainder of the ter
ritory-'a southern zone"-by the
Carranzistas
Cooperation in the handling of sup
plies for the American troops.
Granting of the use of the Mexican
RAILWAYS to the expeditiOnary force

NATIONAL GOVERNMENT TO
 HELP STATES BUILD ROADS
Alabama Will Receive 168OOO From United States to Help in Road Work-Bankhead Responsible for
 Senate Measure
Senate Measure

Washington, July S--(Special. )-Co-oper- ation between the national government and the states in highways improvement has begun on a countrywide programme
 In the next five years $150, 100000 will be expended on half-and- half plan, upon arterial roads selected by the highway authorities Of the IS states, subject to the approval of the Secretary of Agri- culture.
 The cooperative plan became effective when President Woodrow Wilson attached his signature to the concrete proposition which resulted in the merging by the conferees of the two bills passed by Con- gress, the Senate and House having adopt ed different measures. In greater degree the Senate bill found approval, for it directed quite positiveiy the expenditure of the money and required the mainte- nance of the roads after construction by imposing a discontinuance of further funds for neglect in this important mat ter.
 In the amalgamation of the two meas ures the conferees of the Senate were Senator John H. Bankhead. chairman of its committee on postoffices and post roads, and Senators Claude A. Swanson of Virginia and Charles E. Townsend of Michigan. Representatives D. w. Shack elford, chairman of the committee on roads, and E. W. Saunders of Virginia, were the spokesmen for the House.
 STARTED IN 1912
 With the federal aid convention con ducted by the American Automobile asso- . ciation in Washington, January 16 and r, 1912, started the effort which finally resulted in the law just enacted. Con gress answered this first gathering by the creation of joint committee of the Senate and House. authorized to investi- gate upon the desirability and feasibility of federal aid to the states. Its report was distinctly favorable.
 Combining their energies, the American Association of State Highway Officials and the American Automobile association urged the fundamentals contained in the Bankhead-Shackelford legislation accom- plished.
 Chairman George C. Diehl of the Amer ican Automobile Association good roads board thus comments on this new policy of combining federal and state funds in roods building:
 'The majority of the states have pro- vided for definite systems of state high ways, which they are constructing as rap- idly as available means permit. Every effort should be directed now toward hav- ing the federal funds apply on these state systems and not frittered away on countless little disconnected local roads. It is the duty of those who wish to see tangible and lasting benefit derived from the federal aid to sha-7e public sentiment SO as to have it solidly back of the pol icy of applying federal aid to the com pletion of the state highway systems and to the connecting up of these systems with each other so that, while serving the primary interests of each state, we shall proceed rapidly toward the acquire

wheel cost is attributable to the nar- rower felloe stock and wheel rim re- quired, together with whatever saving may be made in connection with wheel design. .
 Saving in cost of handling and ap- plying one tire instead of two.
 Saving in wheel tire and rim weight resulting in possible greater operating economy and relieving unsprung weight.
 Larger tire that will adapt itself bet ter to uneven road surfaces, compen sate for excessive road crown, carrying it's burden as a unit rather than al- ternately on one narrow tread and then on the other
 Greater ease of fitting nonszid chains.
 Better tracking with front wheels.
 Usually greater height of rubber tread, thus poviding greater cushion ing properties with consequently in creased tire and vehicle life.
 Decreased strain on axle and wheel age obtained by the narrower wheel tread.
 We developed and placed on the market the Goodrich de luxe tire, which, because of its additional height and greater volume of tread rubber has a notably greater carrying capac- ity and residence" states MT. Allen in explanation of his. point regarding the advantage in a tire of more than ordi- nary height.
