Aqua Prieta April 27.-Rebel troops are preparing to march on Mexic City from the State of Guerrero, Gen. P. Elias Calles, commander-in-chief of t "Liberal Constitutionalist" army, announced here today. 4The revolution in Guerrero, he said, ~was more serious for the Mexican fed eral government than the movement in Sinaloa, where troops under Gon. An gel Flores continue to progress to wardi Mazatlan. The rcv'olutionists from Sinaloa to Sonora plan to join with the rebels in Guerrero for the attack on Mexico City. Capture of Mazatlan by the rebels they expect wvill easily lead to the sub 4jugation of the balance of Sinnloa andl rapidi progress through Nayarit, which is said to be sympathetic with the Sonora cause. In Jalisco, the next State south, revolutionary forces nre said to be making headway, as is re ported also the case in Colimia, where the capital city of Colima and the port of Manzanillo are objectives of the victorious rebel troops. Michoachan also was reported in revolt against I Carranza and adjoins Guerrero. Says Education Is Needed. Washington April 27.-The bersonal story of John Lind, former Governor ~f Minnesota, of his experience in Mexico as Presidient Wilso'n's personal regesentatives was toldl today to tihe Senate Investigating committee. Ihi cludedl was some account of his ef forts to indluce Victoriano Hluerta to abdicate the dictatorship he held' fol lowing the overthrow of the Madero government and before Amercan oc *cupaton of Vera Crua. RevgIuton was necessary a Mexco, Mr. Lnd contended, to rectfy socal and econome condtons, "though t wIl take decades to brng the people up to our standards." He dened wth partcular warmth that he had ever * We h HOMA the nfluence of the Cathoic church." "What poor Mexco needs s educa ton," Mr. Lnd declared, "and it is very unfortunate that the influence of the Catholic church h'as been against schools in Mexico. As in the United States its influence has not been in the direction of establishing and main taining public schools." Attorney Kearful asked for Mr. Lind's opinion as to the present policy that should be adopted towards Mexi Co. "Though I do not know wvhat the present condition is," Mr. Lind re turned, "it behooves us as a great neighbor of a weak country to be very pantient, not to judge thenm as we would England, France or Canada, as to their responsibility in international affairs." Hundreds Murdered. "When for five years running our strongest verbal representations have been disregarded," Attorney K~earful continuedi, "when 30,000 Americans have gone to financial ruin in Mexico, when hundreds have been murdered andl we find nothing but levity for our further representations, what should be our attitude ?" "That is not for me to answer," Mr. Lind retorted. "I think the statement is exaggerated. Many have suffered loss of life and property from civil strife in this country during the same periodl."/ "Have you heard that any of our generals or high officials in public life wvere concernedl with the losses?" the examiner pursued. Military Occupation. "Certainly not," Mr. Lind said. "Of course we can dlefend Americans to a certain extent along the border and. in the seaports but to defend them in the interior wvould mean the military occupation of Mexico as disastrous to us as to Mexico. It is a condition I have not reflected upon. There may come a time when force Is inevitable." As American representative, Mr. Lind said, he had never lent active aidi to Carranza in his fight against Hluerta, though ho had feared that "if Carranza failed, Intervention would be necessary andl had so reportedl." .Report Federals Revolt.
