Obregon Mastering
Out National Army
In Southern States

Mexico City, Aug. S.-The Obre-
gon government is mastering out
the national army in the central and
southern states OF the republic. The
government seems confident that
there will be no more disorder. Eff
forts are being made to find work
for these former soldiers and al
ready several military colonies have
been formed.
A general or high officer is given
a large tract of land on which to
plant a colony OF former revolu-
tionary soldiers. Each man is
granted Is or more acres of land
to work as his own, and grain and
implements are supplied him.
Reports say the men are more
content under this system than with
the division under the regulations of
the agrarian commission, since the
majority of the lower classes have
been trained to depend upon the
owner or overseer of the lands to
which they and their ancestors have
been attached, often for centuries.

draw the frontier between Poland
and Germany along the Oder river.

ence of George Harvey, the United

can representative.

at the Lyon station at 1925 a. m.
and was received by Premier BRAND.

consultation this forenoon with Re-
land w. Boyden, representative OF
