EXICANS HAVE PLAN ID OPAC|FY
 THEIR REPUBLIC
Liberal Alliance, Composed of Prominent MexiCanS In U. S., Would Unite All Factions
 Of the Rebels With Carranza

FL PASO, July 29.-Efforts are be
 ing made by the Mexican Liberal Al
 liance to unite all factions in Mexico 1 including that of Carranba, and to in
 duce all rebels to lay down their arms and to restore peace in the republic
 Manuel Bonilla, chairman of the gen. eral executive committe of the Liberal Alliance in the United States, an nounced here today in a statement to the Associated Press.
 Senor Bonilla recently returned from New York, Washington and San Antonio, where he held conferences with prominent Mexican political leaders.
 The development of the Mexican situation in the last few months brought me to the conclusion that steps should be taken by the Mexicans themselevs, in order to bring about a cessation of hostilities among the various contending parties" Senor Bonillas' statement reads.
 To Ask Rebels for Demands
 After discussion with Mexican leaders in the United States of what would be the most available thing to do, we have concluded we must get into communication with all rebel chiefs and ask them to present their demands in brief and to state under what conditions they would be willing to agree and so help in the pacifica- tion of the country in the shortest possible time. Of course We cannot anticipate what their answers will be, but from my personal knowledge of their manifestos I have received I expect that nothing would be demand ed by them that may be taken as an aggrayation> Be it what it may, we hope to be in position to have them demand nothing but what can be ac- cepted and in accordance with the welfare of the country.
 Expect Carranza to Accede
 Now as peace can only be made if both MT. CarranZa's government and Its opponents come to some agree ment, we have every reason to believe that at the same time MT. Carranza will declare that he is ready to- aban- don his constant policy in the past, of nothing less than the un- considering nothing less than the un- the most important reason for think ing this being that he cannot expect after so many years of experience to the contrary, that the rebels will put themselves at the mercy of their enemy as long as they have a few guns, some ammunition and other means to make war, having also good reasons to believe the actual govern ment is not what the people would be satisfied with
 of course as the coming to terms rom the rebel side is expected to present few difficulties, which we are ready to smooth out, if We do not find the good disposition that is to be de sired from Mir. Carranza's side we will probably not be in a position to ac. complish anything"

NEW YORK, July 29.-Scores of in. stances of brutal treatment of Amer ican soldiers in the prison camps of France. described in some cases as amounting to a system of torture, re sponsibility for which was placed by the witnesses on high army officials, were related today before the con- gressionaI subcommittee which is in- vestigating the disciplinary systems of the A. K. F.
 The committee, consisting of Repre- sentative Royal c. Johnson of South Dakota, and Representative Oscar E. Bland of Indiana, met in the discipli- nary barracks on Governors Island.
 Arizona Colonel Accused
 The men higher up" who were di- rectly charged by witnesses with re- sponsibility for the prison conditions included Brigadier General w. w. Harts, former commander of the American troops in the Paris district; Major General Frederick Smith Strong of the 4Oth division; Colonel Edgar Grinstead, commander of the 15Sth infantry, and Colonel J. s. Maui, of the Field artillery.
 A number of corporals and lieuten- ants were also named as having taken an actual part in the brutal treatment of the prisoners
 The principle witness today was Col. T. O. Donaldson of the inspector gener- aPs department, who made official in- vestigation of prisoners after the first charges of brutality were made public. Colonel Donaldson admitted that re- sponsibility for conditions in Paris must be laid to General Harts. He was then questioned sharply as to the reasons why Colonel Grinstead, who had bene in charge of Farm No. 2, had never been brought to trial, al- though Colonel Donaldson, in his re- port, had recommended his court mar tial for neglect of duty.
 "Serious Reflection" on A. E. F.
 "Is it possible" asked MT. Bland, that higher officers took the position that they would not convict a man of the rank of colonel?"
 "Oh, no.'
 Do you know of any reason" per sisted MT. Bland, ''why Colonel Grin stead should not have been to trial?"
 'I suppose the superior officers had some reason" replied the witness.
 Tt is a serious reflection on the A. E. F." commented MT. Bland. If a sentry goes to sleep on duty he is shot, but if an officer goes to sleep on duty and boys are beaten up he is given an honorable discharge"
 Suggest Smith Took Blame
 Mr. Bland then asked the witness if the fact that Colonel Grinstead came from Phoenix, Ariz; that Hard Boiled" Smith came from the same town, and that the two were intimate, did not suggest that Smith had been willing to take the blame for things he might have put up to his superior
 Tt would look that way" replied Colonel Donaldson.
 Lieutenant F. H. Bard Boiled" Smith, who was in direct charge of Farm No. 2, admitted on the stand that terrible brutalities" were prac- ticed in the French prison camps, but insisted that his camp wasa pleasure resort"
 He said he had not long to live and

wanted to tell the truth while he was alive.
 Smith was sentenced to three years | imprisonment on charges of beating ! prisoners and stealing their property The sentence was reduced to IS 1 months.
 Smith in Fear of Life Smiths reference to his expected death was interpreted by the prison doctor as an indication of Smiths be- lief that his prisoners would attempt his life. The doctor said that as far as he knew the man was in perfect health.
 Smith, in his testimony, has assert ed he should be told by Col Grinstead that Gen Strong had ordered prison CTS to be treated with the most ruth less severeity." He said it was his understanding that these men were to be treated in such way that they never would come back to Paris or pass through these farms again"
 The description by Smith of Farm No. as a pleasure resort" was flat ly contradicted by Sergeant Clarence F. Ball, formerly the lieutenant sub ordinate at the prison, and now serV- ing six months on charges of brutality.
 Sergeant Ball swore that he and other sergeants had been ordered to beat scores of prisoners on the direct orders of Smith, and frequently in his presence. The sergeant was asked what instructions were given by Smith when he made him prison sergeant
 Ordered to "Treat Them Rough"
 T was ordered to beat the men, to "treat them rough"
 How many men did you beat up?"
 'I could not say" You mean they were so many you could not county them?"
 "Yes."
 Fifty or one hundred?"
 Yes"
 Ball asserted that some of the men that one one occasion he was ordered to beat a man in the presence of Smith and five other officers and that an officer was generally present when a man was thrashed. When men were beaten badly so they were covered with blood, he said, they were taken out into the yard and the hose played on them

Ryszelewski, sophomore of the Un- iversity of Pennsylvania, and who en- listed in the aviation corps Ryszel- ewski, who speaks English, French, Polish and Russian, got into some trouble over gambling, and was sen fenced to three years imprisonment He escaped and joined the Polish ar my in France, was gassed, wounded, decorated with the Croix De Guerre, for gallantry and given a commits sion.

Fe,o Issues Really Settled

In sum, then, the year which has
followed the signing Of the armistice
has served to demonstrate that the
war itself settled few other issues
than the one great question, that of
German domination. The immediate
menace of German world supremacy
has been temporarily abolished, but
unfortunately there are still lacking
even the most tenuous evidences that
German defeat has been followed by
any change in German purpose.
What the German means to do when
he gets on his feet again, what spirit
he will display, whether he will turn
