MAJOR OUTBREAKS
 IN MEXICO TOTAL ! BY IN 112 DAYS
Data Compiled to Show De- plorable State of Affairs in All Parts of the
 Republic

Washington, November 15.-(Special) } One hundred and twelve days in Mex leo, from April 10 to July S1 of the pres ent year, saw BIT major outbreaks of dis order reported in newspapers which are published under the close scrutiny of the Mexican authorities, according to a map indexing conditions in Mexico submitted yesterday to the Senate foreign relations subcommittee investigating the Mexi- can situation. Rebel factions and ban dits. the military and. police organizations and political partisans were responsible for all of these outbreaks, which did not include the ordinary police crimes and misdemeanors reported
 Of the 30 states and territories in Mex ico, all but lower California, which is under the practically independent control of Governor Cantu, and Quintana Roo, isolated on the peninsula of Yucatan, furnished their quota of violence and bloodshed
 Of the ST outbreaks of violence reported the Mexican newspapers ascribed 2T2 to the activity of various factions in re- bellion against the Carranza government, 15 to the depredations of organized ban dits, IS to the lawlessness of police and military officials, and three to clashes between political partisans. Two news papers, Excelsior and Fl Universal, pub lished in Mexico City, the seat of the Carranza government reported 312 of these outbreaks four were reported by Correo del Norte, published in Chihua- hua City, and one was reported by Fl Heraldo of Chihuahua City,
 It is significant that these outbreaks were reported in Mexican newspapers, for during June the Carranze authorities ar rested and deported to the disturbed dis trict of Chihuahua a group of newspaper

Villas followers and Carranza troops numerous Villa attacks on railroad trains and strategic railroad points and numer- ous raids by Villa forces were reported. For 10 days Universal reported on June f the Villa forces held the important town of Parral and on July Excelsior said that Villa had captured San Andres and transferred his headquarters there These activities of Villa led to the es- tablishment of concentration camps at Jiminez by General Dieguez, the Car ranza commander, where Americans from the Parral and Conchos districts could be gathered together flor protection"
 DETECTION OF OFFICERS
 In various instances outbreaks of disor- tion of Carranza military officers or state officials, who deserted their posts to join various rebel factions or to start rebellions of their own. Of this nature were the raids of rebels in Aguascalientes under the erstwhile Carranza leader Echegaras, reported by Universal July l. and the activities of revolting federal general. Armentas, who, according to Universal, May 12, established himself with band of rebels in the mountains of Guerrero and proceeded to ravage the countryside.
 Throughout the period covered by the reports there ware published accounts of the footing of river and coastwise steam CTS in the state of Tabasco Apparently
 he authorities were unable to put a stop to the attacks and the piracy netted hundreds of thousands of dollars in spells. At the end of July, however both Universal and Excelsior reported that Governor Carlos Green of Tabaseo had hastily fled from the state capital, and set up an independent rebel govern ment following the discovery that the pi- ratical attacks had been made by mu-

covered by the map was the scene of 34 outbreaks of violence. Of these more than half occurred in the immediate vicinity of Puebla City, one of the larger cities of Mexico. One of these attacks, reported in Excelsior, June 15, was di- rected against the hacienda of William Jenkins, American consular agent at Pu- ebla, who during October was captured and held for ransom by the rebels. In the June attack the hacienda was footed and the manager killed. Excelsior re- ported on June 12 that the entire Car ranza garrison at San Marcos, Pueblo, had revolted while rebels were footing had revolted, while rebels were footing dynamiting railroad trains throughout the state. At Barranca Honda. within 10 ixilometers (about seven miles) of Puebla City a passenger train from Mexico City was held up by a rebel detachment, Elk celsiors reported on June II. The train robbery netted 100 600 pesos in loot and 100 passengers were marched off into the hills by the rebel detachment commander in order to prove to the rebel leader. Arenas. that the attack on the train had succeeded. The passengers were held prisoners about 24 hours
 Fifty-one important outbreaks of dis order were reported in the state of Vera Cruz during the period covered by the map, and every one of these outbreaks was ascribed to the activity of rebel forces.
 Throughout the period covered by the map, the reports indicated uninterrupted activity of Pancho Villa and his forces in the states of Chihuahua and Durango. On April 20, Universal reported an in definite suspension k railyoad traffic across southern Chihuahua because or Villas activities, and on May 20 Elk celsior reported the Villistas concentrated

 In IS of the instances cited by the Mexican newspap pers the rebels or bandits resorted to Kidnapping. Tn various cases women and girls were carried off by the marauders, and in other cases well-to-do men were held for ransom. June IS Universal reported that rebels in the state of Michoaean had collected 5o.0O0 pesos in ransoms for the release of five wealthy land owners who had been Kidnapped.

For some hundred years this country, along with
England and the rest of the English speaking free of
the world has been laboring under the fool impression
thar twas governed by constitutional law that preserved
the citizen from the hgh-handed spleen of uniformed
bosses.
Indeed ever since the mobiles wrestlcd with King
John all over the lot and extracted the Magma Chara
from him. men were not be thrown in jail without due
process of law were to be given speedy and open pub
lie trial by their peers and were to have the right OF
counsel.
And yet today in Seattle, deputy sheriff not only
can throw citizen into Jail without warrant without
making charge without reason, but ne can
matreat that citizen matreat him until the police have
TO escort him to his cell for safeys sake And this man
can be held ncommuncado without securing access to
an attorney without seeing his friends without the pub
lie, thru the press being allowed to investigate.

In way, strikes are good thing. By
which we mean that in the process of edu-
eating the public mind they seem to be
necessary.
Experience. they say, Is hard teacher
which Is lust another way Of saying that
we get over our stupid prejudices, break
loose from our ancient and profitable GUS
toms of Injustice, and rouse from our
featherbeds of ignorance, only by stern and
unpleasant means.
For instance, League of Nations was
lust as good an idea in 1918 as 1t Is IN 1919
an infinitely better idea, for it would have
saved us incalculable loss. But its way was
blocked by a sluggishness of mind so colos-
sal that only the TINT Of war could blast
thru.
In the same way these violences OF labor
