SAYS THE UNITED STATES GOV.
EMINENT, NOT PEOPLE, ARE
uNFRtENDLY.
MESSAGE IS DIsAPP POINTING
Many Auditors Had Hoped Provision
al President Would Discuss the
Recent Diplomatic Ex-
changes. Ri.

sHuerta began his message to congress
with: Besides the fratricidal strife
which exhausts us, the tenseness Of
our diplomatic relations with the gov
eminent Of the United States, al
though luckily not with that people,
has put us in a state of apprehension,
has made US suffer more than one az.
Fiction, which was not merited, and
retarded the complete pacification OF
the republic"
Disappointing to Some. "
The message was disappointing to
those who had expected that Presi-
dent Huerta would deal at some
length with recent diplomatic .ex-
changes. This subject, however, he
said, "being so delicate and the per-
manent commission of congress being
already informed" he passed with a
bare mention.
In his message, President Huerta
said:
"The Mexican government regards
the pacifcation of the country as an
urgent necessity in order to restore
the public services to their normal
state; to re-establish the political, SO
cia1 and economical equilibrium and
to make possible program Of re-
forms which will satisfy the national
aspirations. I will spare no effort and
no sacrifice to obtain the coveted
peace and to guarantee fully in the
coming elections the free casting Of
the ballot. ..-~-4r
You may be sure it will constitute
the greatest possible triumph for the
interim government to surrender Of
flee to its successor if the latter, as
Is to be expected, enters upon it's func-
tons with public peace and order an
accomplished fact -~& 2.~

Refuses to Discuss Message.
Observation-Disclosures Wilson and
Secretary Bryan received an abstract
Of Provisional President Huerta's
message to the Mexican congress, but
no comment on it was Forthcoming
from either. TO- @
4 Administration officials were in
quandary over whether to send the
Huerta government message of con-
graduation on the celebration Of in
dependence day throughout the Mexi-
can republic. There was hesitancy
about addressing message Of that
character to government which had
not been formally recognized.
