MEXICO TAKES
STEPS TO QUELL.
REBEL ACTIVITY

! MEXICO CITY, Jan. IA Q9-Both
Secretary of War Amaro and Gen
eral Jose Alvarez chief of President
Gales personal staff, have gone to
| Colima for military council in re-
gard to plans for crushing rebel
| movements in the states OF Jalisco
/ Colima, Aguascalientes and Michoa-
can.
Federal reinforcements believed to
total several thousand troops have
been distributed in the state of ia
lisco in addition to the regular garri
son. Reinforcements also have been
sent to other states.
! Senor Amaro expects to remain in
the field and personally direct the
campaign.
Press dispatches from Coalcoman
state of Michoacan, say that fed
| eral,rcolumn commanded by General
JlIeh Doninguez, captr Wsd Coalcoman
after brief battle. No other details
/ are given and no reference is made
| to casualties. Presumably Coalcoman,
! like some other towns in the dis
affected region, has been in the hands
/ of rebel groups which operate in
! guerrilla style, plundering towns and
/ villages where there are no federal
guards, sometimes attacking trains or
burning bridges, and then SCATTERING
into the mountains, where pursuit is
difficult.
Press dispatches and official in
formation avoid details as to numbers
and distribution of federal forces and
rebels, but we'll informed persons say
the situation is about the same as it
has been for years in this region,
especially sections of Jalisco. Roam
ing bands who are called bandits or
rebels, constantly prey upon towns,
villages and ranches of the region.
The problem of the federals has
always beer to force the enemy groups
into open fighting. The federal pro-
gram at present seems to be to in
| crease their forces enough to pursue
the rebel bands into the mountains
one by one to exterminate them.

CHICAGO SEEKS
SLAYER OF GIRL,
THIEVES LEADER

CHICAGO Jan. IA (P-Police today
continued to search the underworld for
the slayers Of Betty Chambers, victim
two days ago of tape murder" in
her luxuriouSly furnished apartment
in a fashionable mort Inside hotel
The police had revised their origi-
nal estimate. of the crime and term
ed it the Staying of one who had
threatened to 'squeal," and reveal
secrets of gangland.
They called the young woman the
white diamond" and said she was
the leader Of band of diamond
thieves who had stolen millions of
dollars worth of gems.
A few months ago. the white
diamond" participated in the theft
of $25O000 worth of diamonds from
Cleveland, Ohio, jewelry store, the
police said, and it was only q month
ago that she came to Chicago to ex-
tend her activities.
Seeking known former companions
Of Betty Chambers, the police raided
the hotel apartment of Marion Kirk
and her husband, Joseph.
They learned the Kinks had de-
parted hastily the day the Chambers
woman was slain, but did find pic
ture of Betty and an expensive fur
coat she had worn.
The name Marion was called
loudly during heated argument Of
four persons with the white dia-
mond," just before she was slain, ac-
cording to the statement of neighbors
to the police.
Marion" said the police, might
have been the woman over whom
Mrs. Chambers quarreled with the
man she had introduced as her hus-
band, a youth of about 10 years.
A week ago, the white diamond, =
also known as Mcdonald, gave her
Husband" a diamond ring, and then
quarreled with him after she ac-
cused him of giving it to another
woman AS a climax, she fired three
shots at him and later found him on
the street and again fired at him.

of 1902 men and women Surged
around the plane, they grinned
appreciatively and joked about
each others boards as they posed
for photographs.
The pilots landed with a dead
stick They did not have even enough
gasoline left in their tanks to taxi their
plane fro1l the far end Of the field

a mile away.
The grim determination with which
they had STAYED off defeat to the last

The first ones to greet the aviators
when they landed included Chamber
Inns wife and A. r. MARITIME, backer Of
the flight, c. M. Bellanca, designer Of
their plane, and Mitchell field officers.
Casually and modestly, Chamberlin
described how most of their supply Of
sandwiches had '.een ruined by the
| poisonous ethyl gasoline, leaking from
one of the gravity tanks in the wings,
how the terrible coffee" in their
thermos bottles had made them sick;
how they had endured intense cold

CALIFORNIA HAS.
ON BILL.
ON COLO. RIVER.

WASHINGTON Jan. IL A9--Hear-
ings on the Swing johnson Boulder
canyon bill were conducted today by
the house irrigation committee with
the presentation OF Californias views
of the huge project on the lower
Colorado river
Seriousness of the flood threat to
Imperial valley and the needs OF
that section for water for irrigation
were described to the committee by
Charles L. ChilderS, an Ell Centro
attorney. He viewed as remote the
possibility that Arizona and California
might reach an agreement for dis
tributlon of the Colorado river waters.
Even an acceptance by California
OF Arizona's proposals for distribution
would not necessarily mean that a
compact would be agreed upon, he
declared, because Arizona always had
included with her wafer proposals
the consideration Of power and other
controversial points.
Cbilders said that the purpose OF
the Colorado river compact was no.
to protect the water rights of any
state, but to create rights which do
not now exist.
The Californian contended that his
state had a claim to more than half
of the water Of the Colorado river
because it had more than SIS per
cent of the land which might be
irrigated by gravity Arizona, he
said, had less than is per cent OF
such land, yet was claiming half OF
the water
Both Childers and w. B. Matthews,
Los Angeles attorney, and a Colorado
river commissioner from California;
who followed him, expressed willing
ness to continue negotiations with
Arizona for the division OF water
between the states.
Matthews, under examination by
representative Douglas added how
ever, that he preferred that such
negotiations be to the end OF reach
ing an agreement both over water
division and payment to Arizona and
Nevada for power developed at the
proposed plant.
Childers indicated. however, that
the two states were far from an
agreement over the water division
and declared that Arizona desired for
herself and Nevada approximately
$3,600,000 a year for power.
The Los Angeles man concurred in
this expression Rand asserted that it
would be unjust to delay passage OF
the measure until after the state
compact was agreed upon.
Matthews was sympathetic to the
request of the states for the r10ceeds
from power he said, and pointed
out that if the project was carried
out by private capital they would
derive income from taxes which they
would lose ufider development by
the government.
He urged that negotiations be re-
sumed with Arizona to the end that
any compact reached might be en-
bodied in resolutions which could be
appended to the bill by the COM
mittee, or offered on the floor

Bourne said he was nearing the main
land again, having passed over Coz
umel off Yucatan and was setting

It was at Tela that Maj E. H.
Brainerd, head of. marine aviation
forces, was forced down by head winds
and darkness on the first marine
corps flight to Managua recently.
Major Bourne's plane carried sui
ficient fuel for a Is hour flight, but
he said he hoped to reach Managua
without g, stop at Tela, within 13
