Returned American Fays Trftmte to President Wilson's Forethought for This Emergency,
—.By Hor-aco-L. Clarko,-• ST. LOUIS, Mo., July 20.—Rumors that German officers are training a Iargr army in Mexico have been heard In this country for some time. Stanley R. Stoner, a St. Loais lawyer who has extensive interests in Mexico, returned from that place today and said that while in some quarters such an invasion is feared, his conclusion is that Mexico wants jk»m o( oar medicine. He said "I believe the forethought of President Wilson is wholly responsible for settling the Mexioan bugaboo. "Wo have a force on the border right now that could smash any Mexican inva-! .^n. The occasional clashes of which we hear are perpetrated

As to the rumors of an invasion, the United States has a large enough army on the border to smash tt should such be attempted."
Anxious to Go to Europe. Stoner found the soldiers doing patrol duty very anxirms to pet to Europe, and into the fijrht against Germany. He said these soldiers were getting little or no news of the war, and he has arranged to send newspapers to the men. In addition, books and mo-tion-picture magazines and films will be sent.

sent nearly a hundred fans for hospitals and other buildings on the border. "Because of the war in Germany, the American people have all but forgotten the boys who are guarumg the Mexican border," said Stoner. "They are doing every bit as hard work as the boys in France. They have their clashes and forced marches, their patrol duty and long hours of being In the wilderness, far from any human being. "For weeks at a time small bodies ©t soldiers go about in the desert regions without ever getting into communication with the outside world. All they can find to do is to talk, and a great deal of the time no doubt is ai^oted to asking why they are not in France. "In the big bend region in Texas 1 found that the men in many instances were without amusements. They need bf and music and pictures, and the

Red Cross is going to supply them. It is needless to say that it is extremely warm on the border, and the Red Cross, as far as possible, is going to equip the hospitals with electric fans. While there I had nearly 100 installed in various hospitals and shacks. "On one of the trips we traveled more than twenty-five miles through mountains to reach an encampment of soldiers who are constantly on duty at one of the passes. These men had not seen a person from any other than a border state for weeks, and they wanted to know about the war in Europe and the general news of the world. They didn't have music or any other ?orm of amusement. At Sam Fordyee, in the Brownsville district, I found the men had no sort of amusement. There are more than 600 men at this camp. "While on patrol duty some of the soldiers actually follow the railroad tracks for miles, hoping that they will
