LITTLE HOPEFOR FAIR PLEBIsCITE

Washington, Jan II Developments
during the last "a hours are regarded
here as lessening the likelihood of Gen.
Pershing's return to Area after receiv-
ing dental and medical treatment here.

little hope for a fair plebiscite unless the
Chilean government can be brought to
restrain the conduct Of Chileans in the
provinces has served to confirm in the

Pershing cannot consistently return to
finish the work. P~ershing's feelings on
the situation have been expressed in off
cial and unofficial communications and
North Americans who have recently been
in africa including a former Secretary of
War have informed President Coolidge
of their impressions. Although these
have not been published. most of them
