BRYAN BRANDS
REPORT FALSE
Europe Not Pressing for
Action in Mexico.
PEACE MOVE ADVANCES
Reform Element In the Chamber of
Deputies Planning to Submit Pro
posals to Both Factions Looking to
the Ending OF Hostliities.

Washington, Aug. AFTER a con.
ference with President Wilson Secre.
tary Bryan declared that the United
States was in no way being pressed
for action in Mexico and issued the
following statement:
The statement which appeared In
some of the morning papers to the
effect that European governments are
bringing pressure to bear on the Unit.
ed States to compel aggressive action
ia Mexico Is entirely without founda
ton
Administration officials we're pleased
TO observe the reports from Mexico
City that a reform element In the
Mexican chamber of deputies was
planning to submit peace proposals TO
both factions in the revolution. So far
as is known the policy of the Ameri.
cen government will be to await the
outcome OF negotiations of this char
acter.
The chief difficulty In negotiating
peace, IL Is admitted, is the selection
of a nonpartisan provisional presi
dent. The suggestion was made that
II might be expedient TO select one
OF the veteran diplomats now repre-
senting Mexico in posts abroad. Senior
Corrvarubias, at present minister to
Russia, and Senior Gilbert Crespoy
Martinez were mentioned.
The house foreign affairs committee
decided to ask Ambassador Henry
Lane Wilson to appear and outline his
views of Mexico.
viii Not Recognize Huerta.
Chairman Flood made IT clear that
the administration was determined
not to recognize the Huerta govern.
ment and that Secretary Bryan con.
templates an attempt to get a valid,
binding election.
The determination of the committee
to call Ambassador Wilson developed
considerable difference OF opinion on
whether his testimony. In view OF the
wide variance between his views and
those OF the president and Secretary
Bryan, might not prove embarrassing
10 the administration.
Some members of the committee.
strongly inclined to give the president
and the state department a free hand
In the situation, believed Ambassador
Wilson should not be called until Sec
rotary Bryan and the president could
be consulted.
With that situation In mind Chair.
man Flood will confer with the Sec
rotary and the president and an at
tempt may be made to reconsider the
taken.
