WASHINGTON. Juno 21. ? Recent
developments along the .southern
border .iiid within Mexico its-'lf. it was
learned oflieialiy today, has brought
a radical change in t ik attitude of
this government towards M. \ on. !t
can In* stated on positlvi authority that
'watchful waiting", has been discarded
for "watchful pivpAredtu >s."
The War Department has perfected
pluns to throw a nun live ex p. I;t:.>n
of adequate strength across ;? Uio
Grande the lnomeiu oMic il wo.-d is i
received of reprisals on the par' of i
Villa for the Juarez incident. or in
cas?? of other continue:. ? s t< ndiii:; :
to bring t.iie .Mexican situation agam
to a stage approach.nc the cris.s .? f
last Sunday. Orders for i -.o advance
of this column, however. it was s i d.
.would be accompanied by instruction*!
for the military o pupation of terri
tory necessary to insure the safety of
the exp> lit ion and absolute protec
tlon of the border ilii'ii-ii the crea
tion of a neutral zone south of the
J.ne.
Further movement of the expedition
would depend entirely on subsequent!
developments.
Military observers here place little
credence in the reports that Villa has
abandoned his offensive to the north.
Kconomii' as well as military noces- j
elty. It was pointed out, call for the
elimination of the Carranza garrisons
row stationed on the ttanks of tae i
territory Villa now controls, and for
possession of a pr nclpal frontier entry
port, which would give tho rebel
chieftain fresh sinews of war in the j
shape of customs duties and equip- i
ment.
Carrnnxn's Strength Doubtful.
Although three Federal generals now
nre operating against Villa in north
ern Mexico, onttdontial reports to the
Wm r Department are not optimistic
regarding the success of the Curran
jr;sta campa.gn there, while the with
drawal of badly needed troops from'
the south, it is expected will be fol- j
lowed by fresh incursions of the Foli
cistas, who are already at the very j
gates of the capital.
The Carranza military establish- ?
ment, according to otflcial reports !
filed here, really includes less than -t<>
per cent of it.s proper si rength of
Ifi0.">00. and its military value is de
creased by the doubtful loyalty of
come of the high otlicers, and the fact
tnat hundreds of recruits were forcibly
conscripted.
Of 'the rebel factions, of which there i
are said to be seven opposing Cai ran- I
7.1,. Villa is reported to bo tho strong- !
est Angeles is characterized in olll
cial circles here as '?undoubtedly the |
most skillful military loader south of ,
the Rio Grande." Tho Vlllastas are ?
conservatively estimated to number j
10.000, equipped with fairly modern i
arms, including cannon up to 105 mili
meter in caliber.
?Want Support of I'nlted State*.
So serious is the condition faced by
President Carranza that he is said to
be bending every effort to secure tho
direct support of the United States in
maintaining his power. This, accord
ing to otliccholders, accounts for the
ease with which the Juarez incident
was closed
One of the principal purposes of the
recent visit to Washington of General
Oamlido Aguilar. son-in-law of the
President and a member of his Cabi
net, it is declared, was to secure the
support of the L'nited States.

Thomas M. Olctriek Served in Red
Triangle Institution Since
bunt -November.
Thomas M. Dietrick. of Richmond, '
who recently returned from France,
where he served as a "Y" man, acted i
as president for a Hod Triangle bank j
at Dijon since last November.
When interviewed in New York Mr.
Dietrick said:
"The *Y' had the only American bank j
in Dijon, and we c^tainly. did a hum- J
ming business. As, a* jule.- Ve averaged J

age of bad checks was very small,
happily."
" W ha* did you do with the bad

"Oh. the *Y' stood the loss and J
Biniled " was th? reply.

Buttermilk Will

Uncle Sam Slants Peepers
in Seareh Pusher for
Pretzels.
Since styles In delirium tremens have
decided to deteriorate before tire
erackers bloom again. I'nelc Sammv
lias been slanting his peepers In seareh
of a white hope to alleviate the parched
throats and wash down the pretzels.
Since the national jitney bus will
henceforth be the water wagon any
thing over 2 per cent kick has been
handed a rain check and passports.
When the race is called on July 1
there will probably be four entries in
the running?sinner ale. lemonade,
grape juice ami buttermilk. Of course,
William .Jennings will back the festive
grape, and Uncle Sam has declared his
intention of bunching his bets on the
buttermilk.
His argument !s hot stuff, too. and
will be applauded by the national as
sociation of ex-soaks, at least. Since
fermenting chicken feed will soon
cease to be a pastime, cows will lap
up the extra grain ami become butter

buttermilk will lie made of the #ame
stuff tiie latter will probnbly be popu
lar. unless revenue otliccrs lock up
the cows lor breaking the prohibition
laws. Here is what t!io 1 >opartm?-?t of
Agriculture distills to t lie public:
"Buttermilk is one of the best drinks
in t it e world?nutritious, palatable and
full of zest and vim. The man who
drinks buttermilk regularly and copi
ously is doing a good turn for himself.
1 hat is one of the purposes of pro
claiming National Buttermilk Daw
The other is that the dairy industry
in tIn? I nited States will be encouraged.
"Buttermilk Day. it is hoped, will
remind many people of th'.s drink, in
troduce it to others, and be the hegin
ninc of a greater consumption of but
termilk that will contribute to the
health and happiness of the consumers
and. at tlx* same time, help dairy farm
ers to develop production.
"To insure an ample supply of but
termilk. both for homes and for hotels
and restaurants on July 1. the Depart*
mi'iit of Agriculture requests cream
cries. milk plants and other dairy
establishments to co-operate in the
plan to popularize the drink.
"It is pointed out that, while straisht
buttermilk Is an excellent drink, there
a number of delicious combina
tions. Buttermilk lemonade is obtain
ed by adding the juice of two or three
lemons to a quart ?>f buttermilk, with
sugar to taste. Buttermilk may be
combined with lemon juice, orange juice
or eggs and sugar for making frozen
dainties.
Aside from its food and beverage
qualities, buttermilk is said pcr^ess
medical qualities. Many physicians
prescribe it in the treatment of certain
intestinal disorders. The bacteria that
brings about I li^ chemical change by
which buttermilk is produced is be",
lieved by many physicians and bac
teriologists to destroy certain other
organisms that, in the human hodv
tend to hasten senility. Many promin
ent men drink buttermilk regularlv as
a tonic. One of tiie most whlelv
known lecturers and writers in the
I nited States drinks buttermilk as
regularly as he brushes his teeth
and declares that he feels himself get
ting younger with every glassful."

RECOGNITION BEING SOUGHT
Apartments Engaged at New York
Hostelry as Quarters for Ireland s
A Renl s?Object to League
Plan.
rr?v Associated Press.1
NEW YORK, June 21.?Announce
ment was made here today that Pro
fessor Edward do Valera. president of
the Irish Sinn Fein republic, had land
ed in America and would be in .New
York City Sunday. ? Apartments have
been engaged for the Sinn Fein leader
at the Waldorf-Astoria by do Valera's
secretary.
Pe Valera left the British Tsles six
teen days ago. according to Harry J.
Poland, his secretary, and is now in!
seclusion in this country. His mission ?
to America was tnade in the hope of
obtaining ottieial recognition of t lie
Irish republic by the United States I
government.
Poland said that de Valera would !
come out of retirement Monday after- I
noon, when he would tell newspaper!
men how he succeeded in escaping:!
from the British Isles without having!
received passports to this country. {
Would .Not (ilvc I.oration.
Poland's announcement that the Sinn 1
Fein leader had actually reached the i
United states frustrated an endeavor
by Irish sympathizers to conceal the I
fact of do Valera's arrival. Poland 1
said today that the Sinn Fein presi
dent was neither in New York nor
Philadelphia, but lie would not state
where ho was. 1 >e Valera's mother
resides in Rochester, X. Y. Do Valera
and she had been together. Poland
said, hut it was not learned whether j
the meeting took place in Rochester. I
Poland himself came to America j
under the etiise of a fireman in the'
stokehold of a ship which docked in |
New York early in May, he said, his
purpose being to act as advance ropre- j
sentative for de Valera.
Poland is a member of the British I
Parliament. representing the Sinn ;
Foinors of South Roscommon, and is
secretary of he Sinn Fein organiza
tion in Ireland.
OhjeelK to I.rnirnc Plan.
Discussing the league of nations to
day, Poland deflated it would con-i
ilemn Ireland to perpetual slavery, 1
and that Ireland's chief objection was'
to article 1 o. which, lie said, guaran- I
teed the integrity of the Briti.-ii Km- j
pi re.
Poland said de Valera expccted soon
to pro to Washington.
Shortly after ttj?? news was made (
public here today that Professor Kd- ,
ward de Valera. president of the Irish
republic, is in this eountrv. a cable
message from Frank P. Walsh, in
Paris, halted the departure of John
A. Murphy, of Buffalo, N. Y., for i
J' ranee aboard the liner Fspagne. Mr.
Murphy was to have joined the Amer
ican mission in behalf of Ireland.
?_L; S Trigg, former secretary o Mr.
\\alsh when the lattear was a member
of the war labor board, who accom- 1
pan led Mr. Murphy and who was to I
have gone to Paris as an assistant sec
retary to the American mission al?o
turned back when the cablegram ?:is
received.

ceived from Hugh S. Gibson, United

instructions issued by General Haller,
commander of the Polish army, order
ing the army to refrain from the per
secution of civilians:
"Soldiers.?I have been told by the
Jewish population of tins country that

dlers in a way which Is in keeping
neither with the honor nor the great
ness of the Polish army: that they have
been beaten, abused and Injured; tnat
their property is being destroyed.
"Such demeanor is unworthy of Pol
ish soldiers, who are servants of a
holy cause. All those guilty of perse
outing any jiortion of the population
shall ho severely punished and coLrt
martialed by my orders.
"The Polish roldier is bound to dis
tinguish himself with his good behat lor
