UNITED STATES PERMISSION FOR
MExicANs 20 CROSS BoR-

Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Ell Paso; Tex, March 14.-Maj. Gen.
Funston last night declared the action
of Gen. Carranza in refusing to per
nit American troops to enter Mexico
unless Mexican troops were allowed
to enter the United States in search
OF bandits, would have no effect on
the dispatch of the expedition. That
news came from San Antonio last
night9 simultaneously Gen. Perahing,
named field commander of the expe-
dition, went to Columbus, New Mex,
where sixteen Americans were killed,
many wounded and the town fired,
and assumed active control of twelve
thousand troops and forty-eight bat
teries of artillery.
While the United States has grant
ed permission for Mexican troops to
cross the border, it is qualified, and it
is not known whether this will be ac-
ceptable to CarranZa.
The United States, in it's note to
Carranza, limited the entrance OF
Mexican troops into American states
to occasions when bandits from the
American side make raids into Mex
leo and return. This has not hap
pened since the Indian wars of many
years ago. While it is technically ire
ciplOcal' rights for Carranza it is not
at all certain that the permission CIV
en- is what the de facto president
meant in his manifesto to the Mexi-
can people.
Villa has taken a sudden twist to
the eastward, according to a report
received by Gen. Gavira at Juarez
This move apparently takes him
away from the territory where it had
been supposed he would seek refuge,
north OF which the American troops
concentration has been hea .iest Mill
tary men, both American and Mexican,
had believed Villa was making for
great moun.aln cham OF the Sierra
MadreS.
Gen. Bertani, heading off Villa to
the west, had said he believed Villa
was trying to get into Sinaloa, which
mas enjoyed comparative peace anu Is
filled with prosperous ranches. But,
apparently, finding his way blocked
at Casas Grandes, the bandit gave up
his announced intention of massacring ng
the Mormons, and took the easiest
way out.
Although he is heading eastward,
Villa has by no means an easy pros
pect of escape from Carranza troops
about him Or from the Americans on
the border. If he continues east in
an attempt to cut the line Of the MeAi-
can Central, he will not only he
