Henry Ford was recently a solitary
guest at the exhibition of a new and
mammoth motion picture with peace
for his theme. And it must have been
almost as lonesome as was his peace
party when it finally landed in Eu-
rope. and even if its wanderings were
limited to the territory of a few of
the neutral nations that are sand
niched in between the European
belligerents. It was the cold shoulder
that was given by the authorities of
sAese neutral nations to the Ford
mace pilgrimage that assisted ma
terially in consigning it to an early
grave.

United States full justification for iuch action.
 It was also stated that in no sense would the administration consider the punative expedition an invasion of Mexico and the United States will continue to deal with the Carranza govern ment on the same basis as be- fore. Another statement from the same source was, in effect, that the administration is opposed to armed intervention in Mexico but has decided that the peace of both the United States and Mexico is imperiled by the continuous ac- tivities of Villa and his troops and the cabinet is, therefore, of the unanimous opinion that Villa must be caught.

CRUSH VILLA ROW A

the administration has a strong basis for believing that Carranza will issue a statement declaring Villa an outlaw against both the American and Mexican govern ments and a common enemy of both.
 It is positively stated, however, that there can be no cooperation between Carranza and the Amer ican forces in running Villa to earth Many officials are not in clined to agree with the opinion that Carranza will permit the passage of American troops into Mexico without a protest and it is the general opinion of those who accept this way of viewing the situation that public opinion will force Carranza to refuse his permission for troops to cross the border at all.

COLUMBUS, March I.-Re- ports reaching here by the re- turning detachments of American troops who crossed the border in pursuit of the retreating Mexicans state that Villa with the main body of his bandit army is fifteen miles south of the line where 1t was halted after a running fight with the American troops under Genera, Slocum.
 Slocum was compelled to re- turn owing to the greatly superior numbers of the Mxeic11s. The detachment of cavalry command ed by Major Frank Tompkins which was the closest in pursuit of the Villa band returned this morning after engaging in three running fights with the Mexicans who finally made a stand which stopped the Americans.
 The returning troops bring sig nifcant evidence that the Villa istas were the parties respohsi- ble for the killing of the party oi Americans at the Santa Isabel massacre, in the shape of a pocket book once belonging to T.
