THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: JULY 80. 1916. 9-A' WILLING TO TREAT WITHCARRANZA Proposition of First Chief for Settlement Accepted With One Addition. ... s WIDER SCOPE IS ASKED Washington, July 29. General Car ranza was informed tonight in a note handed to his ambassador here that the Washington government is pre pared to submit to a joint interna tional commission the task of seeking a solution of border problems. The nroposal of the de facto government (or a commission is accepted, however, with the suggestion that the power of the commissioners be enlarged beyond the limits proposed in the Mexican note of July 12. Agreement to this suKEestion is ex pected and it was stated officially to night that the American members would be appointed and the commis sion be assembled at some point in the United Mates at an early date. Text of the Note. Following is the full text of Acting Secretary Polk's note as delivered to Lliseo Arredondo, Mexican ambassa dor designate, after it had been ap proved by President Wilson ana His cabinet: "Sir I have the honor to acknowl edge the receipt of your comnuinica- tion of July 12 last, in which you tran scribe a note addressed to me by the secretary of foreign relations of your government and to request that you will be good enough to transmit to him the following reply: "Mr. Secretary I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your ex cellency's note transmitted under date of July 12 by Eliseo Arredondo, your government's confidential agent in Washington, informing me that your excellency has received instructions from the citizens nrst cmet ot tne constitutionalist army charged with the executive power of the union to propose that each ot our governments name three commissioners who shall hold conferences at some place to be mutually agreed upon and decide forthwith the question relating to the evacuation of the American forces l .... 1 ArfMttr n anil 11UW 111 WCAIUli w vj. a.. !' m conclude a protocol or agreement re garding the reciprocal crossings ot tne frontier by the forces of both coun tries; also to determine the origin of &e incursions to date, in order to fix the resDonsibility thtrefore, and defi nitely to settle the differences now pending or those which may arise be tween the two countries on account of the same or a similar reason; all of which will be subject to the approval of both government. ' President Willing te Confer. "In reply, I have the honor to atate . that I have laid your excellency's note before the president, and: have received his instructions to inform your excellency that the government of the United States is disposed to ac cept the proposal of the Mexican government, in the-; same .fjjirit ., of frank cordiality in which it made. 1 II IS gUVClUlUCU. iicinn -wiu a "ft gests; however, that the powers of the proposed commission should be enlarged, so that, if happily, a solu tion satisfactory to both governinents of the questions set forth in your ex cellency s. communication may De reached, the commission may also 7 consider ' Such other matters, the friendly arrangement of which would tend to improve the relations of the two countries; it being understood that such recommendations as the commission may make shall not be binding upon their respective gov ernments until tormally accepted by them. Will Name a Commission. "Should this proposal be accepted by your excellency' .government I have the honor to state -that this gov ernment will proceed immediately to appoint ' its commissioner! "ind fix, after consultation-.- with jfour excel lency s government,, the time and place and other, details of the pro posed conference. - Appointment .- of - the -j American commissioners will . await General Carianza's reply. If he approves the suggestion that the scope of the com mission relations be enlarged, as de sired, it is expected his note will be accompanied by authorization to Mr. Arrendodo to confer with Mr. Polk . as to the time and place of the meet ing. ' President Wilson is understood to have at least a score of men under consideration for appointment as commissioners. Among them are Chief Justice White, Major General Goethals, former governor of the Canal zone; Frederick Lehman, for mer solicitor general, and Louis D. Brandeis, associate justice of the su preme court. It was stated authori- .u.xv.j ivnien. ..ia. .lib fJICaiUCIll had not - attempted yet to make any selection Unofficial information from Mexico has been to the effect that Luis Ca brera, Mexican minister of finance, would head the Mexican membership of the commission. Neither the State department nor Mr. Arredondo has official information on that point. General Carranza's reply is not ex pected for several days, and officials here do not believe the commission can begin sessions for two weeks at least. The State department will in sist that the meeting place be within the United States, as-the question is not one of mediation which would re quire a neutral setting. The proposal to widen the scope of subjects to be discussed by the com mission is viewed in administration circles as an extremely important as pect of the situation. It is through an exenange ot ideas on the whole Mexican problem that it is hoped a way may be found to furnish con structive aid to the de facto gov ernment in the financial and econom ical problem with which it is sur rounded. It has been suggested that American Dankers might be nrged to go to the aid of the Mexican gov ernment under certain conditions. Neither American nor Mexican offi cials here have been willing to dis cuss the policy, however, and it ap pears certain the administration has no present plan of that nature. , Mr. Arredondo issued today a sum mary . of his advices from Mexico City, saying that 10,000 Carranza troops were closing in upon Villa JITNEY TAXI 1 WEBSTER 202 1917 MAXWELL CARS. and his followers in southern Chi huahua, and that destruction of the bandit command is certain. It is the first Mexican admission that Villa still is alive. The State and War departments have no positive infor mat ion on this point and officials dif fer in their opinions. Following is Mr. Arredondo s statement: . "The Mexican embassy has been informed by cable from Mexico' City thatt high military -officials ot the .government now assert, that with a cordon-of 10,000, - men w- closing around him and determined on his capture, Villa at last may truthfully be'said to be in imminent danger of elimination from the general prob lem ot Mexican politics. "The same cable conveys the in formation that the department of agriculture has taken in hand the development of the state of Guerrero as a cotton producing area. In times gone by cotton has been planted on a small scale in Guerrero and it is found that it grows will and the cli mate is suitable to it. With the view of making Guerrero a great cotton state, 15,000 acres of land have been prepared and the government has shipped in titty tons ot cotton seed. "General Lopez de Lara, governor of the federal district, has ordered all superintendents of haciendas (plan tations) in the territory under his command, to distribute all lands of an agricultural character not under cultivation to neighboring farmers in order to insure the immediate plant ing of all good areas. A similar notice has been issued throughout the other states of the republic. HAPPENINGS IN 1 THE MAGIC CITY Laborer at Point of Death as -Result of Oppressive Heat of Yesterday.

U A 'science bssed en the principle that the perfect functioning of every or gan and every part of the human body, demands one hundred per cent of nervoua energy. 2. Nervous energy hat its origin In the brain; from the brain emanate! the spinal cord, which sends out nerve fibres to all parts of the body. 3. These fibre, innumerable and threadlike, which supply nervoua energy to the respective organs, leave the spinal cord through small channels or openings between the vertebrae (joints of the spine.) 4. If from jars, wrenchei, contracted muscles or other causes, any of, the verte brae become displaced, even to the most minute degree, the nerve fibre becomes Impinged, thereby rendering it incapable of carrying its full supply of nervous energy to' the organ which It controls. This condition causes a weakening of the functions of the organ and consequent ill health. , A. Dr. Burhem is able to determine the conditions 'of all parte of the body. B.
