 BOQUILLAS, Chihuahua, May 19- (Via Fl Paso, May 20)-F'rancisco Villa will not be satisfied with mere guar antees of personal safety from the new est revolutionary party in Mexico, he told the Associated Press in an exclu- sive interview at his camp in the mountains here today.
 Villa will demand guarantees con corning how the government is to be operated and before he returns to pri- Nate life must see the guarantees in actual operation, he said. This means Villas force of men will not be dis banded immediately, but kept ready for
 Mexicans or all classes, including Villa himself and his men, agree that until he is satisfied with the govern ing forces in Mexico, peace and a re- turn to normal conditions in Mexico are impossible
 Villa sent envoys to Chihuahua City from here tonight, headed by Alfonso Gomez, to confer with Gen. P. Elias Gales, minister of war for the revolu- llonlsts- Gales was reported as i'm tending to confer personally with Villa here.
 Villa declared the new government. To be satisfactory to him, must not include any of the politicians, with perhaps few exceptions, who have mad part in ruling Mexico under Car ranza. He said that if a government satisfactory to him were set up he would turn over to the republic vast amounts of bullion and other valuabIes valued at millions of dollars. Other wise the bullion would be used for his own operations
 Most Interested Tn U. S. Attitude
 The present revolution came about over the same causes for which I went 70 war against Carranza four years ago. Villa said. "The same causes. .ex isted then and I pointed out the fnsin- cerity and trickery of Carranza.
 What the attitude of the United States will be, interests me most. The president of the United States set up Carranza in what seemed defiance of promises made me by American agents. Now Carranza is gone.
 Against Americans individually or collectively, l have no ill feeling. but there is bitterness toward your poll tllclans- In the early days of the revo- lutions I showed my friendliness gathered some Americans together. ar ranged train for them and saw they were escorted to their own country in sa1ety. Then when ] was forced to send my own wife as a fugitive To the United States for her safety the rings from her fingers and the ear rings from her face were stripped from her without consideration"
 Villa declared he had not harmed an American or other foreign for many months. He was asked directly wheth- CT he believed foreign capital and the entry of foreigners to Mexico were necessary for the development of his country.
 Absolutely. No country can exist without the aid of other countries Each is dependent on the others. have great respect and admiration for Americans and for their attafnmenfs 'F
 Villa fE aaI fr5 T,r tains almost under the shadow of the great Boquillas dam. With him are so of his most trusted followers. The gang is inactive and resting after cam paigns that have kept it on the move for many months, fugitive from large bodies of Carrancistas bent on it's cap ture, and alternately on bushwhacIdng campaigns against mining camps. small farming communities and the National railroad lines and trains of the Mexican government.
 Villa Waits-And Watches
 Villa apparently is awaiting to see what will happen, but taking no chances of surprise from any source. At night now, as always, his band keep the horses constantly under saddle. with armed guards watching them and ready to give the signal to flee or repel attack as Villa indicates.
 The camp is more than 20 miles from Santa Rosalie, the nearest rail- road point. The trip must be made by automobile over roads inches deep in white dust which seemingly would soil nothing, but which when ft touches a perspiring face turns to black.
 No one leaves Santa ROsalie that the word of his coming does not reach Villa headquarters first, and en route the traveller passes under the scrutiny | of many Villa agents. In two or three little settlements small bands of armed i and mounted NiliiGfQg keen guard nd watch.
 Notwithstanding the small force at l present with Villa, his potential strength is many times larger. In the quietness he now is enjoying he has | taken opportunity to give his men they desire. When he issues the call many more will join him. Others are | taking care and feeding horses of the band in many mountain meadows. where the livestock can recuperate for l future campaigning.
 Villa, if he does decide to take the | warpath again, will be the most serious menace to the new government getting under way in Mexico, all sides agree
