way AS u. S. Envoy
Secures Residence

MEXICO CITY, July 3.-R1-Mili-
tary precautions have been taken to
protect from bandits travellers on q
road that United States Ambassador
Dwight W. Morrow may now be ex-
pected Il use frequently.
Mr.. Morrow has leased for two
years a house az Cuernevaca, for
vacation and weekend trips, and the
army patrol against bandits has been
increased on the road he must travel
to reach that place.
Cuernevaca is a beautiful town Of
rare climate on a road from Mexico
City where there have been a number
of bandit holdups, including the kid
mapping and murder Of an American
tourist, Jacob Rosenthal OF New
York.
Since Mr.. Morrow has been I'M
bassador to Mexico he missed by a
few hours a wholesale holdup on an
other road between Mexico City and
Puebla where he was motoring.
Arrangements for the Cuerneyaca
lease were completed for Mr.. Morrow
while he was in the United States
and the house was made ready for
use upon his return.
At the same time a new, special
force Of motorcycle soldiers was or
dered on ~anti-bandit patrol duty on
the Mexico City-Cuernevaca and 9TH
