A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

A number of complaints have
been made to THE NEWS from cit
liens residing in East Paris in re-
gard to the storing of large amounts
of high explosives at the rock
quarry in that vicinity being operat-
ed by the county. 1t is regarded as a
menace to the community and one
that ought to be looked after.
One citizen stated that a petition
signed by about twenty residents OF
that section of the city had been pre-
sented to the City Council protesting
against continuance of the practice,
but that nothing had been done in
the matter, and that no reply had
been made to the petition. There is
an ordinance on the books of the city
forbidding the storing of high ex-
plosives within the corporate limits
of the city. The people of East Paris
think the city should comply with
the laws they make themselves be-
fore they require others to obey
them.

WANTS U. S.
INTERVENE
IN MEXICO
El Paso People Favor Step; Fear
for Safety of Americans in
Chihuahua; Tired of Exist

San Antonio, Texas, June 25-That
the people of El Paso and surround
ing territory are clamoring for an i'm
mediate "show down" between Unit
ed States and Mexico, practically all
leading citizens believing that the
American citizens now in Mexico are
in great danger of becoming victims
OF the hate of Villistas was the de-
claration of L. A. Ellis, supervisor OF
border work for the Army Young
Mems Christian association, who has
returned from El Paso. Mr.. Ellis was
in Prescott, Ariz., at the time of the
American punitive expedition into
Juarez, but Immediately following the
trouble received orders from Acting
Executive Secretary Fred B. Apple.
get to go ito Ell Paso and arrange for
any eventualities. He remained in El
Paso four days, during which time
he talked with many prominent bust
ness men of the district.
Mr.. Ellis gives 1t as his belief, as
we'll as the belief of many Ell Pasoans
that Carranza soldiers did as much
shooting into FL Paso as Villistas.
The Carranza men were hard pressed
having once been driven out of Jua-
rez, retah.ng the place by very hard
fighting, and it was matter of much
speculation as to whether the Willis
tas or Carranzistas would come out
victors. The Carranzistas knew that
If bullets fell across the line, the
Americans would Immediately come
over, and knowing this, it is said by
some who claim to, have seen flashes
toward the American side from points
occupied by Carranza's men, the fed
erals deliberately invited American
Intervention to save their own skins.
El Pasoans, said Mr.. Ellis, are con-
fident that Villa will not again attack
Juarez, but he is expected to be very
hard upon Americans now in Chihua-
hua and to take advantage of any
opportunity to raid small American
outposts in spirit of revenge for
what the American soldiers did to
his men at Juarez
II believe | can say without being
indiscreet, that the people along the
border in the Ell Paso district are ex.
Lremely desirous of immediate inter
Vention that means staying on the
job until the whole mess is cleared |
up" said Mr.. Ellis. For nine years
chaos has prevailed in Mexico. and |
1oW that many Americans have en- |
cred Mexico at least by the implied
invitation of Mexico and at least |
a discouraging word from
