Presidents Proclamation.

In his proclamation fixing Boy Scout
week, President Wilson said:
1.-The Boy Scouts of America have
rendered notable service to the ma
ton during the world war. They
have done effective work in the lib
in discovering and reporting upon the
black walnut supply, in cooperating
with the Red Cross and other war
work agencies. in acting as dispatch
information, and other important
fields. The Boy Scouts have not only
demonstrated their worth to the ma
ton, but have also materially con-
the American people of the higher
conception of patriotism and good
citizenship.
THE Boy Scout movement should
not only be preserved, but strength
ened. 1t deserves the support of all
public spirited citizens. The. avail
a BILE means have thus far sufficed for
the organization and training of only
a small proportion of the boys of the
country
Efficient in Washington.
The Boy Scout organization in
Washington has been particularly
efficient in it's war work. The boys
sold a total of $3.277.050 worth OF
bonds in the five liberty loan CAM
paigns. In the fifth loan. the victory
| loan, the boys sold $1,491, 900 in bonds.
The number of bonds sold by them
was 9,121.
The Boy Scout enrolment in the
District today is 1915. They are
divided into Seventy-seven troops; the
maximum membership of each troop
is thirty-two boys. 1t is estima ted
that in Washington there are 10000
boys of scout age. Only one boy in
ten is a member of the Boy Scouts.
The supporters of the movement be-
lieve they will be able to increase the
number in the organization before
the close of the year to 5000.
' The local committee is planning to
call upon the men and women
throughout Washington who are in
terested in the boys" interested in
"out of DOORS and what that means
for boys. to aid in the drive for the
associate membership in the scout orr
ganization. The money obtained from
the subscriptions will be used to
spread the scout organization and its
doctrines.
The thousands of workers for the
Boy Scouts, the scout masters. etc.
throughout the country serve without
compensation because of their interest
in the boys themselves and the cause.
No other organization of such size is
run with SO little overhead charge.
Increased means are needed to enable
the scout movement to grow as il
should.

II am satisfied that the events we are

that your achievement will go down in

Mayor Brown then shook hands and
chatted with the crew while the crowd,
in true British style, gave three cheers
and a tiger. At the mayors sugges-
ton, the crew of the NC-4 stood with
him on Mayhower Stone to be photo
graphed.

ANGELES SEEKS
j. s. SYMPATHY
Tries to Approach State De-
partment, Which Cannot
Deal With "RebeI."
GAINS MORE POWER
BY OLIVER OWEN KUHN.

Simultaneous with the announcement
that Gen. Angeles. recently proclaimed
provisional President of Mexico by
Villista forces, had made attempts to
approach the American State Depart
ment outlining his aims, comes reports
from many sections of northern Mex
leo that the Angeles movement Is
gaining in power. Discontinued Mex
lean elements in many sections of the
country are reported f1ocking to the
standard of Gen. Angeles. The Mexl-
can embassy in Washington and con-
Sular agents in many sections OF the
United States, acting upon adVlceS
from Mexican government, reIuse 10
admit the seriousness of the SITUATION
which seems to be centerlng IN chi
huhua region. .,
Though Gen. Angeles has forward
ed communication to washington
for the perusal of the State Depart
ment. acting Secretary Polk has
made it plain that this government
cannot enter into negotiations with
the rebel regime. Should Villa agents
in this country, and it ia of1claiiy al
mitted there are several. become OBJ
noxious in their work. they will be
promptly handled by this government.
This. however, is in line with the con-
sistent policy of this government TO
stand by organized government, espe-
cially that which has been recognized
by the United States. until events
should dictate change.

the commander of the NC-4. Lieut.
Commander A. C. Read, and others of
the crew, congratulating them on the
finish of the flight. The majority of
the messages were from the United
States. one being from Josephus Dam
iels, Secretary of the Navy.
Commander Read said that shortly
before reaching Brest his seaplane
ran into thick fog. The NC-4 cir
cled over the shipping in Brest har-
Ushant lightship. The journey across
the channel was made at very low
altitude The seaplane never flew at
a greater height than 200 fet. and
way. because of the fog.
Bad weather conditions prevailed
during the flight across the Bay Of
Bisoay. Nevertheless the NC-4 kept
to her course perfectly and the trip
from Ferroll was made at an average
speed of about seventy miles an hour.
Before alighting in the sound the
NC-4 circled in the Hoe and passed
over the spot from which the May
flower sailed.
British Bluejackets Line Way.
After a brief reception aboard the

where they DOTTED their flying clothes
before proceeding to Mayor J. p.
Browns reception at the Mayf1ower
Stone. The parade leading to the pier
was lined with British bluejackets
from men-of war and shore stations.
Behind the lines of bluejackets was
an immense gathering of townspeo-
Pile. On the gayly decorated pier
bluejacket guard of honor was drawn
up under canopy of allied flags. The
royal garrison artillery band played
American and British anthems.
Mayor Brown arrived in state 40
companied by three mace bearers.
He wore a cooked hat and crimson
robe lined with fur and the heavy
gold mayoralty chain. With him also
were the deputy mayor in gorgeous
purple robe and the bewigged town
clerk.
British and American officers stood
with the mayor to receive the NC-4
crew. AS their boat drew alongside
the pier the band played THE Star
Spangled Banner" and God Save the
King" and the crew then advanced
to meet the mayor.

Respects q. s. Sentiment.

This not only indicates that Gen.
Angeles respects American sentiment.
which Is directly against those men
who participated in the regime that
was founded upon the assassination OF
President Madero, but that he will in
sistently pursue an Independent course
insofar as the numerous other would
be revolutionaries are concerned. The
movements Of Gen. Felix Diaz and
Gen. Mondragon will be ignored. These
men, operating in the south of Mexico.
have made little military Roadway,
contenting themselves with disorgan-
izing life in general. Should Angeles
continue steadfast in his purpose and
ignore many of the figures which
have participated in other revolts he
would gain control without entan-
Cling political alliances. such as other
wise might embarrass his regime. at
home and abroad in case he should be
successful against the CarranZistas.

Started Here in 1910.

The Boy Scout movement was started
in this country in 1910. less than a dec
ade ago. Up to the present time there
has been no associate membership. The
coming drive is to obtain a million as
sociate members. They will be the
''grown-ups' back of the Boy Scout
movement, providing the means for ex-
tending the organization. Each will be
called upon to subscribe 81 for the
privilege of becoming an associate MEM
Der, but they are not limited to 81.
They may, and they will be SO re-
quested, give more than the dollar
surplus will be used as they may
specify, either for the benefit Of the
local Boy Scout organization or for the
national organization.
With the impetus given by the Boy
Scout week campaign. the million as
sociate members-it is hoped that far
more than a million will become as
sociate members-and the funds
which they will contribute. it il ex-
pected that 1t will be possible to ex-
tend the organization before the end
of the year until at least million
boys are scouts"

Arguments Used by Angeles.

That the Angeles communication is
designed especially to sway the sym
half is unquestioned. He again re-
iterates that foreign Investments will
be protected, and that law and order
the two great panaceas for Mexico's
present ills, will be restored and per-
petuated Gen. Angeles never has APP
proved of the Queretero constitution.
which he deems entirely illegal. and
declares that he will restore the con-
stitution of 1857. which. he has con-
stantly insisted, provides for legal
changes in the fundamental laws OF
the country.
Possibly Gen. Angeles greatest play
for sympathy of Americans in his
present campaign is his declaration
that he will not in any wise deal with
Felix Diaz, Gen. Manuel Mondragon,
Rudolfo Reyes and former President
de la Barra or any other of those men
who were either in the Huerta cabinet
or associated with it.
