NEW LONDON, Conn, Sept. 3
Consideration of the several plans
for joint protection of the border to
prevent future incursions from the
Mexican side today occupied the
American commission here. Mem
bers of the Mexican commission,
with the exception Of Senior Bonillas,
were in New York. Mr. Mott of the
American commission, was absent
also in New York. on private busi-
ness.
The plans suggested by the Next
can commission for guarding the in
ternational boundary are these:
Joint patrol by specified
number Of American and Mexican
troops, with an international agree
ment that either body be permitted
to follow a hot trail in pursuit of
bandits over the border.
"A joint patrol, with the neu-
tralization of a strip 90 miles wide
on each side Of the borded; all citi-
zens of both countries TO be dis
armed within the limits of the neu-
trail strip.
"a sufficient guarantee by the
CarranZa government that all ban
dts will be driven from the terri
tory contiguous TO the border. with
a reserve of American troops at a
distance from the border for addi-
tional security
The present plan Of the American
commissioners. il became known to-
day. is TO consider together the
question Of the withdrawal of
American troops and means for pro-
lection of the border. The latter
question which Gen. Carranza wish
es to be decided first, is so compli-
Gated by the reported presence of
villa I'm Chihuahua and 50 bound up
in the border question that the
American commissioners deem il
inadvisable 20 recommend the with
drawal of American troops from
Mexico before an Arrangement is
agreed upon for such protection OF
the border that the future presence
of American forces will be unnec-
essary.
IL is understood here that one or
both of these questions Will be
settled before Wednesday of next
week and submitted TO Washing
ton and Mexico City for ratification.
