Ell PASO, Tex, Dec. 6.-Mexican
eXiles in the United States are plan
ming to take advantage of the drive
against Carranza now in progress at
Washington, by peaceful methods,
such as obtaining recognition in
Washington, or by launching revo-
luton in case the field is thrown open,
following withdrawal of American
support from Carranza.
Exiles of all political leanings are
being asked to unite in some construc.
tive program. Mexican patriots of
unimpeachable sincerity in various
American cities are seeking co-opera-
tion for plains to be laid before the
administration at Washington. Inter
vention, of course, would check their
hopes.
A Mexican emissary of this group
was in Ell Paso recently. He was re-
ported last in Southern California. He
had visited San Antonio, Texas. He
is leader in the Mexican colony of
refugees in New York.

NOVEL SCREEN SATIRE

Margarita Fishers second picture
of the new series of eight to be pro-
duced by the American Film Com
pany, Inc, and distributed by Pathe
Exchanges, is "The Mantle of Char
ity." In presenting this picture,
President S. S. Hutchinson felt that
the subject-theme, that of well-meant
but misplaced charity, was a novel
screen satire.
The wealthy (but methodical)
young Paul Howell, is cropping blind
ly in a haze of red-tape, deficiency
Methods card-indexing and long
winded Investigations, and what not.
The deserving poor suffer under this
system. And the undeserving who
have time to wait, eventually fleece
the benevolent giver. 1t reveals the
true state Of many so-called organ
lied charity institutions and discloses
the. human and humane side of lib
erality.
The picture which will be shown at
the Nogales Theater today opens with
light and interesting comedy. Miss
Fisher is seen at her best. She plays
with consummate ease the role of the
supposed wayward girl, a broken
plaything pup, very clever
dog, does service as an "infant." The
story takes sudden turn after fifty
scenes of solid comedy, which give a
solid foundation of interest.
In these comedy scenes not another
principal actor or actress enters the
narrative. This in itself is an inter
esting feature. With the entry of
other members of the cast comes a
transition and the story then begins
to assume more dramatic aspect.
Because there are no dogs allowed
on trains, Miss Fisher, as Norah Nc
Donald, dresses up the dog with a
bonnet, a long baby dress and veil.
She is mistaken by Howell for an "un-
fortunate child of circumstance" and
is thrown into the cogs of his charity
machinery. But instead of being ire
formed" she reforms the would-be re-
former and, of course, she marries
him. The dog winks, as only a Japa-
nese Spaniel can do, when the finish

THE STORY OF THE
BATTLE FOR Deep
SEA TRANSPORTS.
TO MOVE ARMIES
How the War Department
Worked to Put Across the
Atlantic Those Most Puis-
SAINT Forces That Turned
the Tide.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-An ap-
probation of Americas greatness in
war is beginning to make itself felt
here as details of the American pro-
gram and its accomplishment come to
light through reports being furnished
to Congress. With the perspective
that is now possible looking back on
the days of little more than year
ago men are beginning to understand
the vast task that was set out for this
government to accomplish and the
practical efficiency with which the
country met every essential demand,
industrial or military, that affected
the success of the war.
What is looked upon here as prob
ably the most dramatic touch of our
two-year war experience is the gov
ernment's fight to get the men to the
lines and the building of our military
transport system from seven ocean
going troop ships to more than 600
transports carrying out soldiers over
5000 miles of water at the rate of
more than 100000 month. Some of
the details of this battle for carrying
space have just come to light in the
annual report of the chief of staff
of the army, to whose office lay the
responsibility for getting men to Eu
rope in sufficient numbers and with
sufficient cargo and supplies.
In May, June, July and August of
1918 the United States sent 1 ,121 900
men overseas, making record that
astounded our allies and which Gen
eral Ludendorff admits in his mem
oirs was the one single incident of the
war which above all others forced
Germany to call for an armistiee. The
traffic overseas during this period
was so intensive that on July 9th:
one of the outstanding days in trans
portation seventy-five transports
were Europe bound bearing 171,670
American soldiers to the battle front.
The embarkation for July exceeded
all expectations, 100000 men sailing
from Atlantic ports in that month.
To meet this program the War De
partment had to obtain from the ship
ping board and from our allies mil
lions of tons of vessels. This repre-
sented a battle in itself, a daily tussle
in which all interests in the war were
seeking all available tonnage and in
which the War Department won out
only because of the vital necessity of
getting the men over. Then came the
German submarine menace on our
coasts and our allies besought us to
change our ports of departure. To
have embarked our troops from more
southern or Canadian ports would
have meant serious delay in transpor-
tation at this critical time Realizing
the German military authorities
would only hope for such a result
from their submarine campaign we
refused to alter our operations and
trusting to the navy continued to send
our men from the middle and south

to recall that not single transport

Then came the influenza and the
scare that frightened the civil popu-

troop capacities of transports be re-
duced 40 per cent to aid in combating
the epidemic. This was considered
for a while and when authentic infor-
nation on living conditions aboard

A CORRECTION

The editorial on the Mexican situa-
ton gives the name of Jenkins bailee
as J. Sattler Neuser. That is the
way it came from the City of Mexico.
A later United Press telegram from
Washington put it Walter ]. Hansen.
The latter is more apt to be correct.
But the editorial page had been print
