Michigan Men
May Be Home
If Carranza Signs Pact They
Are To Return.

Washington, Nov. 27.-If Gen. Car
rama signs immediately the protocol
providing for the withdrawal of the
Perishing expedition from Mexico, at
least two regiments Of Michigan militia
are likely to eat their New Years din
ner at home, army officers declared to-
day.
The Mexican-American commission
has set Dec. 8, to reconvene and it is
hoped before that date to have Carran-
za's signature to the agreement, which
President Wilson has already tacitly
approved. The agreement requires
the withdraw of the 1900 regular
troops in the Perishing expedition with
in forty days and it will require about
all Of that time, officers declare, to re-,
turn them. The return of militia from
the border, they believe, however, will
begin as soon as Gen. Perishing's SOL
diers turn their faces northward.
MICHIGAN'S TURN COMING
1t was announced some time ago that
the national guards regiments would
be withdrawn in about the same order
that they went to the border. The
Thirty-first Michigan reached Ell Paso
on July 14th and the Thirty-second left
the state camp at Greyling on the same
day OF the more than 100000 militia
still on the border, approximately 30,-
600 reached their stations ahead of the
first two Michigan regiments. OF these
early troops approximately one-half are
from New York, Illinois and Pennsyl-
vania. The militia of New Jersey,
Massachusetts, and California also sent
out early, has been returned home and
mustered out.
Other states which sent troops down
ahead of Michigan were Idaho, Indiana,
Minnesota, Missouri, Utah,
Nebraska, Oregon Virginia, Washing
ton and Wisconsin.
The Thirty-third Michigan regiment
departed for the border Oct. II; batter
les A and B, Oct. s; the engineering
and signal corps, Oct. 9, and
troops A. and B Of cavalry, Oct. II.
1900 REGULARS THERE.
In addition to 1900 regular soldiers |
now in Mexico there are about $4,000 |
regulars on the border. For some time |
the regular officers have been trans
ferring militiamen to the regular army.
Wherever they could find a man will

that regular recruits from the militia |
regiments will 60 long way toward
pulling the regular regiments up to
their full quota about 10000 men.
Even the $4,000 regular troops now
in Mexican service, officials say, will
be ample to protect the border, unless |
Mexican conditions become much worse |
than at present. The present large
force has been maintained on the bor-
der because of the existence of the |
Peishing line, extending 200 miles into |
Mexico, to come quickly to the aid of
the expeditionary force in event of a |
serious attack by Mexicans.

To Re-Adjust
Postal Rates
Coming Session of Congress
Will Take Up Problem

Washington, Nov 28th.-The ways
are now being creased for the launch
ing of the movement for the re-adjust.
ment of postal rates in the next session
OF Congress. This problem was to have
been taken up in the last session but
had to be deferred on account of the
consideration required by railway mail
pay. Since this has been disposed OF
the committees are prepared to take up
the matter of placing the various postal
rates on more equitable basis.
A zone system OF rates for second
class matter is being prominently urged
to take the place of the present flat
rate which was adopted nearly forty
years ago. The present rate has for
some time been regarded as a discrim-
Fination against the newspapers in favor
OF the great national magazines. Like
the parcel post the proposed zone rates
would be based on the length of the
haul.
The postal committees have been be-
sieged by petitions bearing millions of
names and several hundred thousand
letters from individuals urging a re-
adjustment of postal rates with a view
OF making possible one cent letter post
age. A survey of the situation indi-
Gates that sufficient changes will lbe
made in the various rates to permit the
granting of one cent rate on local de-
livery letters in the next session of
Congress.
Chairman Moon of the House Postal
Committee, today said; 81 think that
the Committee will take up this second
class mail matter at the next session
and press it to conclusion at once.
While cannot speak for the Commit
tee, this is my desire in the matter.
do not know what kind OF a bill we will
pass, whether it will have a zone fea-
ture attached to it or not This view
has been presented frequently in years
past, and sometimes received favor and
sometimes not. As to what shape the
legislation will be in am not able to
say, but am sure the Committee will
give it the best possible shape in the
public interest"
Senator Townsend, of Michigan,
prominent member of the Senate Postal
Committee could not be reached today
but it is generally understood that he is
in favor of remodeling the postal laws
so as to place the rates of postage on a
more equitable basis. He is understood
to have stated recently that if such a
readjustment were made it would be
possible to reduce letter postage even
below ! cent per ounce.
Congressman Frank ID. Scott, of
Michigan, says: "the Post-office De-
partment was created to offer the very
best possible service to the public at a
minimum cost and is not supposed to
produce any more revenue than is act
ually needed to pay the running ex-
penses. Legislation needed to create
a cent rate on drop letters should be
passed without further delay; it will
cost the Government no money
and it will act as a much needed stimu-
liant to business. With every reduc-
ton in the letter rate there has immed-
lately followed tremendous increase
in the volume OF mail thereby taking
care OF any possible loss in revenue"
