General Gutierrez" he said, told
me that he expected to have $4,000 men
on Villas trail within Q week. Then
there are 1900 to 5000 American troops.
| do not believe that all these thous-
ands of men with all their equipment
are needed What is needed is about
five columns of 500 picked men apiece,
all we'll mounted and carrying the least
possible amount of equipment. These
columns should be in sufficiently close
touch to be able to render assistance to
anyone of them that Villa attacked. If
they moved fast and were the right
men they would have a good chance to
lay Villa by the heels"
Mr. Garcia denied emphatically the
repeated statements that the people of
Guerrero and Galeana are in sympathy
! with the fugitive.
MANY of them are afraid of him of
course" he said, because of the reign
of terrorism he inaugurated there but
it must be remembered that the Villa
of today is not the Villa of five years
ago"
