sociated Press).-Ygnacio Bonillas,
formerly Mexican ambassador to the
United States and presidential candi-
date when President Carranza was
killed, was here today en- route to
washington from Mexico City. He
denied that he had been deported
from Mexico as . foreigner and said
he was travelling under Mexican
passport, which permitted his return
to Mexico at will.
Senior Bonillas said he was treated
we'll while he was in custody after
Carranza was killed.
He said his future movements would
be determined upon after he reached
washington and communicated with
his wife and two daughters In Italy.
Carranzn Chief Escapes.
MEXICO CITY. June 15.-Gen. Juan

Gen. Barragan secured permission

Similar clerical reductions are be-

changes in the other departments are
being made gradually. In all cases
where designations have taken place

bR0WNL0W WARNS
AGAINST DANGERS
IN SCHOOL STORM
Commissioner Denies Police
Will Guard Board and
Scouts Intimidation.

Asserting that propagandists are
seeking to arouse a mob spirit against
the board of education. Commissioner
Brownlow today appealed to "all good
citizens to refrain from repeating
such idle and dangerous gossip"
In a statement issued at the Dis
trict building this morning, the chair
man of the board of Commissioners
denied reports that police would
guard the school board at it's meet
ing in the Franklin School this after
noon.
Mr. Brownlow expressed the belief
that the school board would not be
intimidated, and added that he does
not believe Supt. of Schools Thurston
desires his cause to be supported by
threats of mob violence"
Text of Statement.
The statement of the Commissioner
follows:
The statement that police will
guard the school board meeting this
afternoon is untrue. No application
for such a detail has been made, no
such orders have been given. Pub
lished and spoken statements to the
contrary are untrue.
II do not believe that the persistent
efforts of propagandists to create
mob spirit in connection with the
school board affairs will succeed.
Nevertheless, similar efforts last sum
mer did succeed, and therefore l take
the liberty as the head of the munlcl-
pal government to call upon all good
citizens to refrain from repeating
such idle and dangerous gossip"
"WilI Not BE Intimidated."
"Of course, the school board will not
be intimidated It is made up of self
respecting men and women. or
course, Mr.. Thurston does not desire
his cause to be supported by threats
of mob violence. OF course, no self
respecting citizen has any patience
with such tactics. And If the .'eople
win only analyze the outgivings of
trouble making propagandists thore
will be no trouble.
'"rhe last cry of mob violence re-
suited only in the presence OF seven
reporters smoking cigarettes on DR..
Van Schafck's front porch. Not they,
but somebody. has been smoking some
thing more potent than cigarettes.

1900 on annual Roll
Represented at
Meeting:

Representatives Of the statutory en-
ployes in every branch of the District
government met in the board room
OF the District building at 2 o'clock
this afternoon to form an organiza-
ton to work for pay increases at the
next session of Congress.
The approximately 1900 annual or
statutory employees are the only Dis
trlct workers who have not had their
wages raised since the war Police,
nremen, school teachers and practi-
cally all per diem employees have had
increases.
The meeting today is independent of
the District branch of the Federal
Employees Union and the City En-
ployes' Association, but members of
both these bodies will take part. En-
gineer Commissioner Kutz was eX
pected to speak to the employees.
A proposal to hold a mass meeting
of all statutory employees to arouse
their interest in the movement was
discussed this afternoon.
The Commissioners agree that the
statutory workers should be better
paid and will join with this class of
employees in an effort to have their
pay scales raised at the next session
of Congress. Thomas Medford of the
architects Office presided as
temporary chairman at today's meet
ing.

Heavy reductions in the clerical
forces Of all the executive depart
ments are being made because of de-
creased appropriations which become
effective July /, the beginning of the
next fiscal year. Probably the great
est reduction is in the War Depart
ment, where about 5000 separations
were scheduled to take place during
the present month, and reducing the
total force to about 1000 employees.
To meet that big reduction an aver
age of about 200 employees is being
laid off every working day. That aver
age was largely exceeded yesterday,
when nearly 400 employees were noti-
fed that their services would not be
needed after June 30. Nearly 5000 are
yet to be dropped. These reductions
Are being made in all the bureaus and
divisions Of the War Department. ex-
cept the adjutant generals Office. In
that office the appropriations for
clerical help were increased to ex-
pedite the handling Of the draft and
war records of the men of the de-
Army.
u Bureaus Hardest Hit.
The heaviest reductions naturally
are in the larger bureaus, like the
generals Office, includ-
ing the construction and transporta-
ton divisions; the ordnance bureau
and the office Of the chief of engineers.

Covarrubias.

News that Miguel Covarrubias had
been selected by the new Mexican
government as minister Of foreign
relations was received with satisfac-
tion in official circles here. where the
new minister is well known as the
dean of the Mexican diplomatic
corps"
The new foreign relations minister
began his career in the diplomatic
service in 1889 as third secretary of
the legation here. During his Wash
ington service. which lasted until
1895, he rose to charge d'affairs and
then was sent to Chile as minister.
He later served as the Mexican dip
lomatic representative at most of the
European capitals and was minister
to Great Britain when he resigned
because of lack of sympathy with
the Huerta regime.
Representatives Of the de facto gov
ernment asserted today that selection
of Covarrubias would mark the begin

between this country and Mexico.
