VILLA'S AMBITION
TO
S P.
EL' PASO, Texas, June 7. Fran
cisco Villa a lovor of peace, a hater
of bloodshed and a family man who
wishes nothing so much as to work
all day on an American rallrpad
right of way and go home In the
evening to play with his little son
and continue his rudimentary educa
tion started when he was a prisoner
in. the iBelom prison at 'Mexico City,
sounds like a paradox. '
Yet that was the Villa of 1913 fol
lowing his escape from prison where
'he had heen placed by order of Gon
, eral VIctorlano Huerta. After escap
ing from prison and Mexico, probably
thru President Madero's orders, Villa
came to 1 Paso and rented a cheap
room In the old Hotel Mexico In the
(Mexican quarter.
( Bitting In a little Mexican restau
rant of the hotel. Villa told the pres
ent correspondent of the Associated
Press his plans for the future, his
alms and ambitions and also of his
expectations for a son to be born to
him at the family home of his wife
in San Andres, Chihuahua. At that
time Villa was known as a reformed
bandit who' had followed Madera loy
ally and who had fought for indepen
. dence and liberty for his people be
side . the diminutive revolutionary
leader. It was not until later that
he again won the title of "bandit"
by his raid on Columbus, N. M and
his' subsequent acts. -
. "I am tired-sick ancf-tlred of war
and-revolutions and bloodshed". Villa
said In Spanish as he ate the Mexican
dishes served, in the little cafe. '-'
''I want no more of It and I have
tome to the United States to get
. away from" It all and to get a job on
the Southern Pacific railroad' and
have a home here in the land of the
free. I love Mexico but. If I remain
there I will be forced Into the polit
ical . whirlpool and that Is the one
thing I want to avoid now. There
will be d little Francisco 'hljo' await
ing me when I go back to San Andres
to bring Lux (his wife) to the border
and for his sake I want to live the
life of a working man in the United
States where he, will have a chance
to get the education which , 1 was
cheated out , of by the tyrant Dial
who decreed thefe' should ' be ., no
i schools In the north for fear'his peo
ple would learn of his misrule." .'.
, Before. Villa could find employ
ment on the railroad Madero , was
killed and he. organized an expedi
tion consisting of seven men, five
mules and three sacks of flour which
crossed the border near Hermanas,
N. M.a,nd resulted in the Villa revo
lution. By a turn of fate, the baby
Villa was expecting died at, birth
during the battle of . San Andres,
which was his first engagement with
the Huerta. federals. After that Villa
reverted to type and his history was
the history- of northern Mexico for
the following-five years. His wife
is now living In San Antonio, Texas.
