OPERATION OF
 MARINE DURING
 PEACE PLANNED

NEW YORK. March 27.-R-E. N. Hurley. president of the shipping board. has announced the plan for the peace time operation of the mer. chant marine. In speaking at the National Marine League he stated that he favored private ownership with government regulation as a measure against watered stock in the holdings of the company. This would assure the use of the vessels on the trade routes that would be bene. ficial to the government.
 Among other things stated in GOV. ering the question of government control was that the government should have the selling of the ships and would establish the market price. The transfer of the registry of the vessels could not be accom-. pliehed without the consent of the government No aliens would be al- lowed to hold stock in the American corporations, which would guarantee the shipping industries of the United States in being an all.American un- dertakins.

FIVE THOUSAND
 AMERICANS ARE AMONG MISSING

WASHINGTON. March 27.--R-- General J. J. Pershins has notified the war department that there are still five thousand five hundred American officers and men who are listed as missing and of whom no accounting may be had.
 In making a comparison with the other countries who have large num- bers listed as missing and of whom no trace may be found 1t is shown that England has one hundred and sixty-one thousand; France two hun. dred and ninety thousand.
 These enormous losses among the European countries are a source of considerable worry on the part of the officials of the war department of the respective countries. It seems inconceivable that such a large num- Der of men could disappear. A vigor- ous search will be instituted In all of the abandoned trenches and dug outs on the battle lines to ascertain if some trace of the men cannot be secured.

VILLA PLOTTING
 FOR COMEBACK
Masses Army for Capture of Chihuahua; to Make U.
 s. Mines Pay Bill
CBy Review Leased wirel

FL PASO, April 25-Francisco Villa is attempting to stage a '''come back in Mexico and is concentrating all of the troops unaer his control in the state of Chihuahua in an effort to wrest control of the state from the Carranza government, re-establish a provisional rebel government similar to the Villa government of 1915, and try to rally the various rebel bands throughout Mexico to his ban ner. This became known tonight with the arrival of refugees from Par ral on the Mexican Central train.
 To finance his revolutionary move ment Villa plans to force the foreign mining, smelling and milling compa- nies in northern Mexico, especially American corporations, to pay heavy tribute to his treasury in return for protection, which he promises to give them, permitting them to work under what he characterizes as normal con- ditions.
 This, 1t became known here tonight, was the reason he permitted the three representatives of foreign mining com panies in Parral to come to the bor- der yesterday through his lines. After taking Parral, Villa insisted that they must pay him tribute, citing the fact that they had been paying the federal commanders for protection and must him. His demands were identical with those made at Santa Eulalia early in the year and again at Moctezuma and Villa Ahumada. His alternative is the destruction of foreign plants, Villa threatening to dynamite one of the biggest plants in the Parral district Monday unless tribute, ,totaling ap- proximately 100000 pesos was paid. The mining company representatives are known to be negotiatong for the payment of a smaller sum in return for protection from Villas men, it was learned tonight
 Villas military strength at Parral Mexican and American off cials on the border here. He was thought to have but 500 men under his command. When he entered Par ral he commanded 1500 men and 500 more joined him later, according to the American refugees. These include 1000 troops under General Felix Diaz, who is no relation to the southern rebel leader; General Garcia, a Du- rango commander; General Felipe An
