MEXICO CITY. Nov. 14.-Pres-
'Ident Huerta's altitude toward the

President Wilson had unbent suf-
fciently TO warrant hope that the

spite OF this. however, these
friends OF Huerta who now are
convinced that the United States

they will be able TO bring about
the desired changes in time TO pre-
vent a complete rupture Of dlplo-

based upon the fact that Washing
