L. S. TO STAY NEUTRAL.

International News Service:
WASHINGTON, oct. 19.-State
department officials today were
deeply concerned over the possibili-
ties OF Greek appeals for interven-
ton by the United States in the
critical situation now confronting
the government at Athens.
While the demands from Greece,
first from the provisional Venizelos
government. asking the privilege OF
recruiting Greek reservists in the
United states, and second from a
group of Greek citizens asking the
United States 10 interfere 10 prevent
further entertainments on Grecian
sovereignty by the entente powers.
were only informally before the de-
partment. they were admittedly an
unpleasant development
Neither the state department nor
the royal Greek legation here. how
ever. have been officially notified OF
either OF the demands. Charges
d Affaires Vouros asserted that he
had heard nothing directly from
Athens He declared that disturbed
conditions in Greece and the war
conditions throughout Europe has
interrupted his cable communica-
tons.
The state department oEcials
pointed out that any request for
leave to recruit a Greek army in this
country, either 10 support King Con-
stanune or his side with the Veni-
zelOs revolutioniSts would be dis
tinct breach OF the neutrality OF the
United States. They were likewise
emphatic ia their statement that nc
petition from Greek citizens, OF
even from the Greek government
could possibly prevail upon this
country TO interpose itself between
Greece and the entente powers at
this time. 4 hands off, policy was
plainly the course In the minds OF
the department officials.

ARMS REFUSED z
!. MEXICAN LEADERS
Trevino'S Failure to Battle
Villas Forces Said to be
Due to 0bregOn.
International News Service:

WASHINGTON, oct 19.-Disaf-
lection among Gen. Carranza's mil
itary chieftains is not confined
merely to those at the head of the
northern commands. Reports reach
ing Washington today disclose that
Gen. Pablo Gonzales at the head of
the de facto forces in Morelos. is
in open revolt against Minister OF
War Obregon, and that the breach
between Obregon and Carranza IS
daily growing wider.
Obregon, as the head Of the war
department, has withheld arms and
equipment from both Gen. Gonzales
and Gen Trevino. in command at
Chihuahua. The result has been
that both of these generals have
been forced 10 play a sorry figure
in the face Of repeated rebel at
tacks. While the loyalty Of Con
Zales and Trevino TO Carranza has
long been under suspicion Oregon 5
action has left them no alternative
but TO avoid a clash with the rebels.
Officials now believe that the
long expected breach between Obre-
gen and First Chief Carranza will
soon be forced by the war minister.
The widespread anarchy which in
evitably results from ObregOn's
tactics in Withholding supplies. will
be taken by the latter as an excuse
for driving Carranza out of power.
IL is believed
Then the struggle will narrow down
between partisans of Obregon and
Trevino, both Of whom aspire 10
succeed CarranZa. From this point
it looks as though TrevinO had the
best chance. The attitude Of the
United States in the event of Car
ranza's abdicatiOn cannot be determ-
ined in advance. But Trevino is
counting upon the solid support Of
all those northern leaders. including
Francisco Villa himself. who for
weeks have been quietly organizing
on the border, which has been de-
clared 20 be the most formidable
movement seen in Mexico since Ma
dero overthrow Diaz. five years ago.

Peach Orchard Acreage
Increases In Georgia
Marked Increase In Number OF Peach
Trees Set Out During Period
OF Twelve Months

Oh. T. NOTATION, Prof. Horticul-
lure, Ga. State Col. OF Agr)
Information received from various
parts of the state makes it conserva-
tive to say that more than 100000
new trees have been added the peach
orchard acreage of the state of Geor,
gia during the planting season of 1919
and early 1916. This means that there
are something like 10000 more acres
devoted to peach culture in the state.
Quite a decided increase in the acre
age has taken place in the Fort Val
ley region. Northeast Georgia has
added materially to its acreage. North
west Georgia has planted many trees,
while as far south as brownsville
peach trees have been planted on rath-
er broad scale considering that
they are planted somewhat as new
crop for that region.
The success OF crops of recent years,
and the success with which diseases
affecting the peach have been combat
ted, has tended to place peach culture
on more attractive basis than for
several years.
