WASHINGTON Nov, s9-The plot
thickonsl
The mystery deepensl
For at The state Department they
haven't solved the mystery yet about
the case Of William q, jenkins, who is
the cause Of the latest American warn
ing 10 Mexico.
Jenkins, l.. s consular agcnt at
puebla, the second largest city IN Mexi-
co, has been arrested three times, haled
into court and returned 10 Jail since he
was ransOmed from bandits October g.
Who paid the SiSO,000 ransom2
Who was jenkins lawyer who ncgo-
fiatcd with the b2ndlts2
why Is Jenkins arrested so ofiens
All these questions arc unanswered,

sulsr agent 10 hand them Si50,0O0 IN

installmcns plan and then jenkins was
released,
The next the State Department heard
NJ jenkins, he was in a hospital, then
I'm a peniieniiary, then at his home,
again in the peniontiary, then at large
and the last dispatches said he was so
iourning indefinitely in the penitcn-
tiary after a preliminary court hearing
In Pueb a-this after the United States
had demanded his release.
The charge this time IS that he made
false statements and threatened TO harm
poems for statements they were alleged
20 have made, throwing light on his
case.
Chronologically, the following is what
happened 10 jenkins:
oct. i9-Kidnapped at the consular

klns' factory and arrested five employees
