DIOR to Carranza's confident
Joast, that if the United States

low the rebels to buy arms from
this country, Heurta would be
overthrown and peace restored to
that war blasted country. In the
Iparez fight the rebel victory was
complete and crushing, but the
advantage gained could not be
followed up owing to scarcity OF
ammunition, so it was claimed,
