PORT OF MISSING MEN
OVER BORDER AT JUAREZ
Some Die Fighting, Others Killed
for Loot and There Are Those Who
Would Be Lost to World.

Correspondents of the Associated Press.
JUAREZ, Mexico, August 19.-This
is the port of missing men.
Many Americans have crossed the
shaky, wooden bridge to this little
adobe town who have never been
seen nor heard of again. The files Of
the United States consulate here are
filled with letters from mothers.
wives and other relatives asking for
information about men who have
disappeared somewhere in Mexico.
Many were killed fighting with the
various revolutionary forces during
the six-year war. Others were mur-
dered for their money on the Gale
Dfablo-street of the devil-or killed
by bandits who rove over the coun-
try enforcing the law OF the siA-
shooter Still others are living out
their lives in some mountain settle
ment under assumed names, often
with native families.
Tom Kingsberry's name was the
latest addition to the long list OF
those men missing in Mexico
Kingsberry was foreman for the
of Los Angeles. He left for an inspec-
tion of cattle ranches west of here
and has net been heard from since.
Mexicans here whisper of a feud ex-
listing between the Palomas cow
boys and Jose Ynez Salazar's band of
outlaws. Salazar was killed at the
headquarters ranch of the Palomas
company. That was where Kings
berry disappeared a year later.
For months the body of an Ameri-
can swayed in the wind suspended
from q telegraph pole at Rancheria,
south of here. He was caught dyna-
hitting bridges and hanged by the
federal railroad guards. He was
never identified.
Many Americans are known to have
been executed in the cemetery on the
hill Few were given an opportunity
to notify their relatives.

presses in the western angle of the
Aisne salient.
Farther north the French advanced
to the edge of the Canal du Nord.
which they now held over its entire
distance from Noyon to Rouy-le-
Grand, north of Nesles.
Gen. Humpert's men now are firmly
in possession Of positions around
Eoyon. without which the enemy can
not hope to cling long to this salient.
Machine guns have been placed on
every point of vantage by the Ger
mans and the struggle has become a
sort of bush fighting. The enemy's
machine guns are carefully concealed
and command all paths leading up the
hills and are capable of holding up Il
large force and obliging assaulting
troops to dodge and surround the en-
placements. 1t has been found that
artillery preparation, however in
tense, never reaches all of them.
Like Old Days Of verdun.
LONDON. August 31.-The corre-
spondent of the Daily Mail at French
headquarters, writing of the slaughter
in the fighting on the east bank OF the
Ailette. says:
TT is the old days of Verdun again.
The Germans are resorting to their
old methods of crowding men into the
front lines rather than placing them
in echelon, in accordance with the
more recent theory of the German
high command. This probably is en-
abling them to hold the Ailette posi-
tions longer. but at a terrible sacri-
flee, as Gen. Mangin's artillery is play
ing on them with deadly precision.
The position is as important for the
French to win as for the Germans to
keep"

Rules for Registration.

mated place of the local board within

the notice sent the clerks today.
Residence means the place where
you actually live. The maintenance of
a home and voting privilege else
where does not give you the right to
register at such place, nor does reg
istration in the District of Columbia
in any way affect your voting or your
right to vote in the city, town or
state from which you came to the
District of Columbia and to which
you may expect eventually to return.

The local board of the District of CO.
lumbia which handles your case is
within easy reach and you can per-
sonally ask and have answered at
once all questions in connection with
any feature of your case.
Matter Of Convenience.
ANY necessary affidavits which are
to be filed in connection with your
particular business, employment or
job can be made better If you register
here, as your business or employment
is here. The District board, which
handles all appeals and industrial or
agricultural claims, is also here, and
you will again have the advantage Of
immediate action in your case.
''Your physical examination can be
accomplished here, both by the local
board and medical advisory board,
and you are saved all travel expenses
incident to appearance for the phys
ical examination. This means untold
advantage to you, as the experience
of hundreds OF registrants of previous
registrations has been that out-of-
town local boards have failed to an
swer letters and kilograms, with the
result that hundreds of men living in
the District of Columbia but register
ed outside thereof. have been de-
clared delinquents or deserters from

MORE IDLE HOMES
Housing Corporation Expect.
ed to Back Up Warning to
Absentee Landlords.
WAY OUT is BY, RENTAL

The United States Housing Corpora
tion IL known to be conducting an
inquiry to determine whether there
are not many more houses in the Dis
trict that are standing idle waiting
for a purchaser while people who
come here to work for or transact
business with the government strug-
ing accommodations.
The first step in this direction was
taken a few days ago, when the
housing corporation assumed control
of seventeen large residences in the
northwest section of the city. The
housing corporation is known to be
considering taking over more vacant
dwellings in other parts of the city.
Suggested to Rent Homes.
In announcing the taking over of
partment of Labor, under which the
'housings corporation acts urged prop
erty owners to rent their houses and
make it unnecessary for the govern
appeal is not needed the government
probably will acquire more vacant
dwellings,.
The difficulty of evioting tenants
under the salisbury law, even when
a bona fide sale has been made. is be-
lieved to be responsible for the fact
that some owners who are deeirous OF
selling their property prefer to leave
the house vacant while they are and
ing a purchaser rather than rent the
property and then encounter the
salisbury law to get the tenant out
when a purchaser is found.
Equipment Committee in Charge.
Authority to commander rests with
the real estate division Of the hous-
ing corporation. of which William z.
Shannon of this city is manager. After
they are placed in the hands of the

OF houses.
This committee, which has ofnces at

Of fair rental with the owner and
