Plan shifts and army bill talks in Washington May 2
Washington reports show Secretary Baker confirming Gen Funston's original order to pursue the Columbus raiders remains in effect and President Wilson resisting any Carranza demand tied to withdrawal. Carranza offers 25 000 native troops for northern Mexico upon U S withdrawal, delaying El Paso talks as generals lack authority to decision. Senate and House conferees inch toward a revised regular army plan adding thirty four infantry regiments and ten artillery units, with some artillery provisions to be settled.

Georgia-Trinity Games Today and Tomorrow Should Be Good
May 2 report from Douglas Arizona says Carranza cavalry advance guard tried to enter Chihuahua through Pulpito Pass but American troops blocked the move. Mexicans penetrated eighteen miles into the pass before an American plane spotted them and they camped beyond the line. Messengers were sent toward Mar in the hope of contact with General Gomez. The action is viewed as a potential precursor to a wider Carranza movement. In Paso a conference between General Scott and Obregon, lasting from noon till night, indicated a desire to avoid intervention and Mexicans appeared eager to prevent a break.
