WILSON APPROVES PLAN FOR
REDISTRIBUTION OF AMERi-
CAN SOLDIERS SOUTH OF
THE BORDER.
TO REMAIN UNTIL VILLA Is
CAPTURED OR CRUSHED
Force VIII Be So Placed az to Safe
guard Border Towns by Policing
Area South Of Line Where
Carranxa Has Been Unable
to Check Banoits.

Washington, April rs. - Behind the
formal announcement that President
Wilson had approved a Plan for redis-
position of the American troops in
Mexico there was a plain intimation
that the Washington government had
decided to maintain q military status
quo beyond the border until the Mexi-
a de facto government has demon
strated its ability to capture or crush
Villa and his adherents and prevent
repetitions Of the Columbus, N. NJ,
raid.
To Safeguard Border Towns.
In the interim 1t Is understood the
American troops will be SO placed as
to safeguard the, border towns by vir-
tually policing the area south Of the
line where General Carranza has been
heretofore unable to check bandit op-
~erations.
Secretary Baker announced the APP
prevail of the redisposition plan after
consulting with the President over a
Joint report submitted by Major-Gen-
eral Funston and Major-General Scott,
chief Of staff in conference on the bor-
der. The plan vas proposed by Gen
eral Funston and c%oncurred in by Gen.
eral Scott. The secretary announced
the Administrations decision as fol.
lows:
Recommended by Funston.
General Funston has recommended
a r~edisposition OF the forces In Mex
leo for the purpose Of recuperation and
pending opportunities for further CO.
operation with the forces Of the de
facto government of Mexico. The rec
ommendation has been approved and
It's execution left to his discretion"
Later the secretary dictated the fol.
lowing:
THE statement I have made con
tains nothing whatever on the subject
Of when the American troops will be
withdrawn from Mexico. The whole
subject of withdrawal Of the forces is
under arrangement and negotiations
by the state department"
seott's Mission Completed.
II was announced last night that
General Scott had completed his mis-
sion to the border.
The new military plan leaves the
pursuit of Villa at a standstill. but
frees General Funston's hands to
make the position of the forces In Mex
leo secure by grouping them in posts
Of such strength as to protect them
from attack by irresponsible elements
OF the de facto governments forces.
It will also serve as a plain warning
to General Carranza that he must bend
every effort toward securing complete
control Of the territory south of the
most advanced American post II he
hopes to have the troops recalled.

don't really want Roosevelt any
more than they want Alkali Ike.
They say they do. but so far
back as last January some of
them were quietly arranging for
the principal delegations that
they should be handpicked
against the colonel.
For instance, on Jan. 16 there
was exhibited in New York a list
of the delegates that would be
chosen at the Illinois primaries
two months later, and when the
primaries we're over only two
names had to be changed.
And the persons that had that
list were meantime giving the
colonel some OF the gladdest glad
hands ever known in the state of
New York.
You may have noticed in the
front rank of the Roosevelt choir
more than one earnest voice that
until lately had but verjuiced
words for the colonel and now
singeth his praise till the COWS
come home.
These portents may have dis
turbed you, as not being in ma

In a national convention there
