GONZALES 10 AID
 IN 0USTING TROOPS
COPY OF PRINTED MANIFESTO BROUGHT TO FL PASO BY
 REFUGEE.

Fl Paso.-Gen Arnulfo Gonzales, governor of Chihuahua, declared in his first proclamation to the people after the reoccupation of the city by Carranza troops, that he would be ready to join the first big chief in bringing about the retirement of the American punitive expedition.
 A copy of the printed manifesto, which bears the date of December 6, was brought here from Chihuahua by refugee
 General Gonzales began his procla- nation by saying that the people have the right to know the line of action their governors intend to pursue while in office. Ha continued:
 The state of chihuahua, in which rs e.se s5f.s loa t4-- pitious a field and which ht~' always been so jealous a defender of the dig nifty and clearness of it's institutions, giving a proyerbial example as a bel 1 lfgerent liberal in sustaining it's soy ereignty and intergrity and showing l so great an energy in repulsing any trespass on it's rights, today must la ment the disgrace of seeing it's sacred soul desecrated by the proud Saxon troops, misfortune that the bandit Villa caused with his deeds at Colum- bus. As these deeds not only iniure the sovereignty of state but also of the country, it is to the central govern ment that belongs the solution of this conflict which threatens the na- tion itself and the responsibilities that history eXacts before the present and future generations. The patriotic at titude of the first chief in the face oi this Iamentable incident iS well known to all MeXicans His forces have not a single moment ceased to work to- ward a solution of the same by diplo- matic ways, preserving national pride and autonomy. To support this atti- tude in our own sphere of action will be always a satisfaction to the govern ment of this state which may soon be ready to unite it's forces to those of the general government to bring about that the forces of Pershing's punitive expedition, so well known but so un- justified, may withdraw as soon as possible from the state.'

 The men and officers affected were members of militia companies whose home stations were at Heber Springs. Jonesboro, Beebe Dermott, Fl Dorado Hope, Bentonville, Harrison, Fort Smith, Russellville, Dardanelle, Paris and Magazine.

 The three versions of the proposal, differing slightly because of the trans lations made in Berlin, Vienna and Constantinople. were harmonized in to one official American translation, g single copy of which was sent to the American ambassadors in the seven belligerent countries where the United States represents German Austrian or Turkish diplomatic interests
 Whether any suggestion or offer to mediate will be made by this govern ment until it is indicated unmistaka- bly, that such action would be vel comed by both sides remains undeter- mined but President Wilson is known to be anxious that the United States shall not impair it's usefulness as a mediator by premature action.
 Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador, conferred with Secretary Lansing today, seeking information of the attitude of the United States to- ward the peace proposals of the cen tral powers; to discuss the general subject of peace from this govern ment's viewpoint, and to give informa- ton Mr. Lansing might desire on the attitude of the German government.
 Ambassador Bernstorff said after a 1Gminute visit with Secretary Lans- ing:
 "We did not discuss peace terms in any way 1 have not received any formal terms and the American gov ernment knows officially that no form al terms have been proposed All Ger many has suggested is that the belig- gerents get together and talk. If that proposal is accepted definite terms naturally will be discussed, but until then it will not be proper to mention them. My visit to the secretary was purely for general discussion
