CARRANzA WARNED
A YEAR AGO
By America That Villa Was
Preparing a Revolution
But dhe
CID MAN WAS ASLEEP

WASHINGTON, May 3O.-Al-g
tkough the Carranza government
Of Mexico WIS warned nearly a year.
ago by the United States of prep-f
.arations for the present revo,ation-
sary campaign which has resulted
in the prcclaimtig of General Fell
ipe Angeles provisional president
war, little attention was paid To
information given by this country.
Specific warnra. gs of the threaten
ed menace to his power were given
President Carranza by the United
States last October Is, and again
last November 27, it was learned
authorirativeIy today. President
Carranza was reminded on these
occasions particularly of his duty
to protect Americans and American
priperty in Mexico.
Villa began the collection OF
arms and anI1rTu milton and nlulley
a year ago for the campaign which
in the opinion of officials here now
has grown to constitute the gravest
menace TO Csrranza's power since
Villa was defeated by the govern
men fcrces three years ago. Last
winter, it is said, Villa notified his
followers to plant their crops, early
as the campaign would begin as
soon as the grass was green to in
sure forage for their horses. I'm
, usual activity --Fgas displayed Thru
out northern Mexico by the Whilst
as in getting their crops into the
ground to provide against famine.
I All this was learned by agents
of the United States and formed the
! basis for tie warnings Sent to
| Carranza.
! Just why Earranza paid little
heed to these " warnings, or was run-
! able to divert any military forces
+, from other parts of the republic to
the campaign in the north, is a anys-
] terry to officials here. In the opin-
! ion of some, the extra expense of
/ such an un1erta King may have def
erred him, remembering that the
campaign of Huerta sent by Madeq'o
against Orozco in the same part
fsof the country cost the Mexican
government approximately 60,O60s
1900 pesos The fetal revenue from
all sources for the first four months
of this year, according to Official
figures brought to the Mexican
Treasury only % million pesos.
| Six weeks ago Carranza had s.
! 600 men in Torreon, it is officially
| reported, with a large supply Of
arms and ammunition at Ch1nua-
hua Officials here are unable to
understand why he did not move
these troops north before Villas
men had been assembled in large
force at any point. Villas popular
! ity among the troops is explained
here by his conduct upon the cap
J ture recently of Parral. After
the surrender of the garrison Villa
\ addressed the men,, having impris-
oned the officers, telling the sol
D diers that as he realized that they
Iwere conscripts and as he needed
their weapons, they were free to
return to their homes of they would
give their word of hoS6r that they
| would not take up arms against
/ him again. This information reach;
ed the federal troops and accounts
for the ease with which Villa has
defeated the federal troops sem
| against him.

Don't Let 1t Find Root in Amer

Where
EVERYBODY PROSPERS

"A great many people of the pres
enI generation of Americans, and
great many Of the fathers and grand
fathers of others, came TO this conn
try in the belief that it was a bet
ter place in which to live than any
other on the face of/the globe For
This reason it seems worth while
for all of US, who still believe this,
to stop and consider the things that
m: ght matte ita less desirable home.
There are those who would suffer
some of the extremist ideas OF Eur
ope TO be spread among our peo-
le here. What sort of life Is going
on now among people who have
suffered this? Here is the picture,
as stated in recent newspaper
item:
Two eye-witnesses of the murder
of the famous Russian GeneralRus-
ski, the hero of the Galacian cam
. 3aign tell the story of this end. He
was asked to command the Red
Guards, but refused, saying, 4 can
| fight against Germans but against
Russians, Mo- After being sent home
| he was re-arreStet as a hostage
two TT three weeks later by a new
commissary of the Reds. He was
| taken with the second party of hos
| tage outside the town, where they
were made, to dig their graves. He
was rdered TO updress ifut refused,
| saying, Il shall not; you can strip
my onrpse later" and knelt to pray.
| The eEecuticner ran in and struck
| off his right hand with his sword
| and another following siashed off
| his head. Forty-seVen wounded of-
ficers Of the Offices Battalion were
| taken prisoner and taksn out to the
fielG where, with blood runniE g
! from undressed wounds, they were
marched and compelled to dig Their
graves. Weak as they were they
! frequently fell but were 1ashed with
a knout until some sort Of a hole
| was dug. Then an ighteen-year-olG
Tartar stood ten PAGES from them
and opened fire which he contin-
ued for ten minutes until thirty
! seven of these men lay in the hole,
some dead, some only wounded,
but they were all buried. The re
naming ten were tortured, after
| having their hands tied behind
| their backs, while the right eye OF
each was put out with the point OF
! a sword
| Now one must be with one party
or the other.-Would you rather
be with those perpetrating these
| atrocities or be among those suf
| fering the results? The choice seems
an unsatisfactory enc at best View
ed in this way one can readily reach
the conclusion to kill the first at
tennpts to place a virus amorg Us
that in practical operation results
in poisoning all living conditions
