WASHINGTON. Nov. lo--rt is pos
sible now to give authoritativeiy for
the Hrst time some of the details Of
the administrations Mexican policy.
Huerta must go. this is the unalter-
able determination Of President Wilson
and his advisers. How this most diff
ficult and dangerous task can be ac- n
complished is a matter yet to be work.
ed out
With this determination as the
basis of the presidents policy HUI
erta's acts head of the Mexican
government will not Be recognized by
the United States. nor will this gov
eminent recognize the acts ofthe Mex
lean congress about to be called into
being. Huerta has been informed OF
this determination. and also have
the European and other governments
having interests in Mexico.
NO time limit. however. has been
set by this government for the retire.
ment Of Huerta. and no threat of force
in the event of his failure to yield has
been conveyed to him
AutboritativeIy Made.
These facts authoritatively am
nounced TO the correspondents in WASH y
ington have served to clear the at
Emosphere- hare Regarding thu Mexican
situation. but they have not altered
tue Seriousness OF the prGdtCdfnent In
which the administration now finds it
self President Wilson and his advisers
have failed TO move Haerta by moral
suasion, and are now face TO face with
! the unpleasant duty Of being abliged
TO decide upon a course of action for
his elimination by some other means.
Evidence gathered from many
sources today indicated the Presi-
dent Wilson is stiil determined to avail
himself of every possible expedient
before turning to actual intervention
| by United States troops. It seems GER
tain now that he will also try other
lines Of action before suggesting even
the lifting of the embargo on arms and y
ammunition along the Mexican border.
| The presidents sole hope before re-
sorting to either of these two expedi-
ents seems to be a possible acouies-
cence in this governments policy by
all the European powers, and a shut
ting off al the source of all financial
supplies for the Mexican Dictator IL
this can be brought about adminis-
tratlon officials believe that Huerta
will be obliged to yield.
Bryan I'm Conference.
Conferences that Secretary of State
Bryan has been holding for two or
three days with representatives of for
( eisu governments lends strength to
the belief that this government has
hopes in this direction.
/ Among the diplomats received by
Secretary Bryan today were the niin-
listers from six Central American gov
eruments. Guatemala, Honduras, Mica
ragua, Costa Flea and Panama These
diplomats visited the state department. &
( in body. Mexico was the SUBJ
/ tect discussed, but Secretary Bryan
/ declined to go into details, beyond says
Ing that the matter under considera-
ton was something of common inter-
ests.
The uncertainty that confronts tho
United States in regard to a policy d
based on the support of all the Eu-
ropean powers lies in the fact that this
government will not under any circum-
stances seek the aid of the governs
ments on the other side Of the Atlantic.
( There have been, however. soma
few developments on which the ad-
ministration apparently bases III
hopefulness. Unofficial dispatches
from France today indicated that that
government was moving I'd prevent
any loans being made TO Huerta ~
the money powers of that country. NJ
Germany also has Indicated a DISPOSE
( tion not to do anything which will
conflict with this governments policy
7 in Mexico City. and Premier Asquith'a
speech today created distinctly
favorable impression in Washington.
