Paris March 1S.--With the return
to Paris of President Wilson, 1t is gen.
orally thought here that a more defi-
mite form will be given to the society
of nationsJ and with this thought in
mind, French public opinion is won
dering what will happen to the ma
tions which during the war remained
neutral
1t is rightly pointed out that these
nations cannot be asked to send dele
gates to Paris on this matter, for then
they would have the appearance of
being peace delegates, although they
never participated in the war in any
r-''-'.s' reannar. IT is. however, prob.
able that such nations will be asked
ioi their ioeas and opinions, for their
representatives in Paris, and there is
a question of calling upon the latter
to give their government opinions
next week.
Perhaps the most interested of these
neutral states is Switzerland. firstly,
by her position in Europe, and Sec
ondly. on account of the different ma
tionalities which populate the coun-
try. Switzerland considers that there
should be neutral stars within the
society of nations, and though quite
willing to support other participating
nations in any economic measures to
be imposed upon any unruly nation
within the society Switzerland. has
recently declared that she maintains

Washington, March 1S.-The Amer
lean embassy at Mexico City was in
structed today by the state depart
ment to request the Mexican govern
ment to take every possible step TO
insure the protection of American cit
izens in the territory in northern Mex
leo, where Villista bands again have
become active. The Mexican authori-
ties also will be asked to effect the
release of James Il. Whetten, an
American who, with Joseph Bentley,
u bishop of the Mormon church and a
naturalized Mexican, was captured by
villa forces near Las Cruces, Chihua-
hua, some days ago.
Information that Whetten was in
the hands of the bandits reached the
department only a short time before
a telegram was received from Repre-
sentative Edward l.. Hamilton of
Michigan, who said he had been in
formed by Warren a. CO.. that en-
ployes of the cpmpany's ranch at
Ojitos, Chihuahua, were held by Mar
tin Lopez Villiata leader, who de-
manded $4,000 ransom under threat
of killing the prisoners and destroying
the ranch. The mess1so said the fore
"
raise the money.
In connection with this case the de-
partment disclosed thai wo days ago
it directed the embassy at the Mexi-
can capital to urgently request the
Mexican government to extend prop
er protection to the employees and the
property of Warren & co. at Ojitos.
Bandits Range Wide.
Information now in the hanis of
the state department shows that the
bandits have been active for at least
twelve days and that their operations
cover comparatively wide range of
territory. The town of Pearson in
northern Chihuahua was raided by
Lopez and Ramon Vega on March 6.
some time before the bandits descend
ed upon Las Cruces and took Whet-
ten and Bentley Representative Ham
ilton said Lopez had captured the
towns of Janos and Ascension and
that Lopez had 400 men under his
command.
SO far as has been made known,
the state department has no specific
information as to the operations OF
Villa himself. 1t was recalled today,
however, that only recently villa was
reported to have stated that he pro-
posed to launch campaign in north
ern Chihuahua near the international
line, to develop the attitude of the
American government Until they be-
gan their present series of depreda-
tions, villa bandits had been compar-
atiNely inactive since the raid on CO.
lumbus, N NJ, in 1916 which led to
the dispatch of an American force
into Mexico under General Pershing.
Lopez and Vega were Villas chief
lieutenants during his campaigns in
nor. .hern Mexico, before the Colum-
bus raid.
