DUN DUN BULLETS
AMERICAN MADE
USED IN MI X|C0
Border OffieiaIs Charged With
Smuggling Of Ammunition
FEDERAL AGENTS INDIFFERENT
Representative Kahn of California
- Starts Investigation of condi-
tions on Border.

Washington, Jan. 7-Charges that
American officials on the gorder are
involved in the smuggling of arms
and ammunition into Mexico were
made tonight by Representative Kahn
of California, ranking Republican
member of the house military affairs
committee, as the beginning Of fight
for congressional investigation of
border conditions. In sensational
statement, Representative Kahn de-
clared that American manufacturers
are making ammunition, even DUN
dunn bullets, for Mexican use and that
American agents are assisting in get
ting 1t into Mexico despite the EN-
barge imposed by President Wilson.
MIR. Kahn made a tour of the border
recently and he asserted his state
ment tonight was based on proof col
lected on the ground. Representative
Kahn said:
Death in horrid foyn from Ameri.
can-made bullets may be the reward
OF patriotism for thousands of young
Americans who enter United States
military service unless effort is made
to stop shipments into Mexico and
dun dun bullets. manufactured by
American concerns. These concerns
include some of the leading munitions
manufacturers of the United States.
Il have In my possession samples
of the ammunition now in use by the
Carranzistass. Ntllistas, Legalistas.
and all the other 'istas' who have
been making our international bound
ary line a shamble and northern
Mexico q hotbed of anarchy for the
last six years. These cartridges bear
the imprints Of American concerns.
Who sent these cartridges into Mexi-
GO, | don't say, but konw that they
are there and that they we're manu-
factured in this country Many of
them are dunn dun bullets. with the
steel jacket of the bullet extending
only half way to .he soft lead noses.
warfare, but | got them directly from
the ammunition supplies of Mexican
soldiers south of the border.
1T is absolutely true, to my mind. |
that the conduct of the federal agents
along the border, agents of the de-
parement OF justice and OF the treas
ury department Is supinely indiffer-
ent as to the need for the restoration
of peaceful conditions. That is put |
ting 1t mildly.
1T is evident there is connivance
between some of the agents of this
government and the run runners.
We are sowing the wind that will |
bring a whirlwind harvest and con-
gress should step in an ascertain |
what is going on The executive de- |
partment's refusal to give congress
necessary information as to border |
affairs, it seems to me, demonstrates
clearly the need for thorough in
vestigation."

He had previously been with the Ben
