Mobilize Troops and Aid Planned in Texas Crisis
The United States plans to mobilize 20 000 troops in Texas forming a quarter of the army with infantry cavalry and artillery. A formidable Atlantic fleet division will support operations off the Texas coast under Rear Admiral Staunton. President Taft orders the maneuvers and Governor Carroll urges Iowans to donate to the Red Cross famine relief in China.
