No Message From Mars, Declare

Venus viii Be First to Speak

G. Abbot, of the Astrophysical OBJ
from any planet it will probably be
Venus which at times is only 25.-
100000 miles from the earth and ap-
proximates the earth in size and
atmospheric conditions. There are
clouds surrounding Venus which in
dicates plenty of water while the
water scarcity on Mars is SO ex-
treme that no clouds are ever Wis
ible. 1t is these clouds. by the way,
that have kept Venus from being
discussed as much as Mars. They
wrap the planet round in a blanket
of mist half the time, SO that it isn't
visible. Consequently it isn't talked

CouIdnt Receive Message
Rear Admiral ]. A. Hoogewerff.
of the Naval ebsesratory professed
utter skepticism in the whole mat
ter. Il don't think that Mars is
trying to communicate with the
earth." he said; land I don't think
we could receive the message IL 1t
did"
A more charitable view was
voiced by F. C. Brown. assistant
director of the Bureau of Stand
ards.
while the scheme of receiving
messages from Mars seems to be
very visionary and dreamlike sort
of project" said Brown. Il believe
that it should not be discouraged.
Suchc experiments contribute to the
store of knowledge that is piling
up SO rapidly in the world OF sci
ence. Often they do not attain the
end wished for, but do uncover some
unexpected and valuable possibiIi-
ties previously ursuspected. At any
rate. science is progressing; it
would be a very arrogant person
who would say that anything is
impossible. I do not believe that
we will communicate with any Of
the planets for many years. but it
would be interesting to know what
the next century will bring forth
in this line of endeavor."
Says 1t is Foolish.
Absolutely Impossible" was the
comment of Engineer in Chief Rob
ert S. Griffin, of the Bureau of
Steam Engineering of the Navy De-
partment. mo wireless messages on
earth have registered for a longer
distance than 10000 miles and the
talk of communicating with Mars is
simply foolishness."
Lieut.. Commdr. Craven. Of the Ar
lington wireless station, believed
that the attempt to receive Martian
radios offers no possibility of sue
cess. He pointed out that the tenn
perature of Mars, which is 100 de
grees colder than that of the eartn.
in the opinion of many scientists,
would make any animal life except
that of the lowest order impossible.

Attempts to receive Martian wire
less messages are doomed to futility
in the opinion of Washington scien-
fists.
Besides the tremendous difficulty
of radio communication over mil
lions of miles. it is pointed out that
the frigid temperature of Mars
makes it improbable that any high
form Of life exists there. II we get
in touch with any planet. it will
probably be Venus. the earth's twin
planet. it is asserted.
Venus Resembles Earth.
Aside from the technical difficul-
ties of wireless communication,
Mars is too cold and too dry to sup
port animal life" said Director C.

VILLA TO FIGHT CARRANZA
AS GEN. OBREGON ALLY

Francisco Villa, rebel chief. has
definitely Joined the Obregon revolt
to overthrow President Carranza-
despite the fact that General Obre-
gon is known as the "only man who
ever defeated Villa" according to
announcement last night at head
quarters of General Alvarado, rep
resentative here of the revolution.
Advices were received yesterday
by Alvarado that Villa had sent as
surances to Governor de la Huerta
Of Sonora that he was about to
launch a campaign against the fed
eral forces in chihuahua. Villa de-
clared that the federals would not
be allowed to leave chihuahua to
Invade Sonora.
Villa expects that within two
weeks at least half OF the Carranza
troops now in chihuahua and Du-
range will abandon the government
and go over to him, according to
Alvarado.
Summing up the progress of the
revolution. Alvarado said:
Tho states of Sonora and Sina-
loa are completely under the mill
tary control of the state govern
ments, with the single exception Of
a small territory in the southern
part of Sinaloa, including the port
of MaZatlan. which General Flores
of the Sonora forces is endeavor-
ing to take without bloodshed.
The State of Nayarit Is under
complete control of the Sonora
forces, while the States Of Micho-
acan, Jalisco and Guerrero are DOM
mated by former federal forces
who have declared for tse revolu-
tion. In these States there remains
not a eingle federal command of
