NO BODY GUARD
 FOR PRES. OBREGON

Mexico City. Mexico, Dec. IT, Unlike some of the other -outstand- ing figures in Mexico, notably Fran cisco Villa, General A1varo Obregon does not move about with a body guard.
 While in Mexico City. he has moved about the streets unattended and sometimes alone.
 His face and figure are well known everywhere. Even strangers readily recognize him because of pictures they have sen and because of the empty sleeve of his coat, showing where his right arm was shot off in battle with Villa
 His untroubled face as he passes through the crowds which fill the sidewalks, indicates fear1essness or faith in the Mexican people.
 This unassunling way adopted by General Obregon in going about the city has made a. decidedly good i'm precision because of the fact that gen erals of much less importance have the habit of haughtily flashing by in motor cars, gleaming with mirror like varnish and metal.
 It may be probable that the Mexi- can secret service has adopted ways of protecting General Oregon while in the street, but if this protection is given it is not apparent to those whom ObregOn passes.
