Harassing with scattered bands likely to be Villa's tactics
Washington, D. C. The administration says it will not invade Mexico but will send mobile troops to locate and disperse or capture Villa and his scattered bands. The War Department must plan separate forces for pursuing Villa and guarding the long border, with cavalry needed for mobility and terrain challenges along Chihuahua and Sonora. The article notes border protection shortcomings since 1911, the lack of sufficient cavalry, and the risk of a protracted chase across Sierra Madres and desert plains. An aero squadron could help locate concentrated forces, but overall manpower and equipment shortfalls threaten an extended campaign and potential broader conflict.
