LONDON PAPERS COMMENT.
Say it viii Be Impossible to Localize
War Against Huerta.

LONDON, April % = The editorial
views Of majority Of the London papers
is that the United States is now commit
ted to war with Mexico and that it will
be impossible to localize the war against
Huerta.
The Daily Chronicle says :
1--WE cannot suppose that President
Wilson is asking his countrymen to spend
money and shed their blood merely to re-
place a villain like Huerta by villain
like Villa
All the papers recognize the magnitude
OF the possibilities opened up by the hap,
penings at Vera Cruz, The Morning
Post assumes that President Wilson, who
has carefully studied the problem, has
not yet completely revealed his plans.
The Daily Nails Mexico City CORE
spondent says that the cabinet has decid
ed to promulgate general amnesty meas
ure so that all Mexicans may be united il
defense of their country.

Consequently the Washington government
had hoped the constitutionalists would re-
main silent and not interject themselves
in the imbroglio.
Secretary Bryan had not received the
text of the Carranza letter up to a late
hour last night, but indirectly was ac-
quainted by one of the constitutionalists
representatives here of the substance of
it.
Carranza pointed out that the seizure
of Vera Cruz would be regarded as a
hostile act by Mexican people and that il
was advisable for the United States to
withdraw its troops from Vera Cruz as
soon as it was practicable
Carranza agreed with President Wilson
that Huerta did not represent the Mexi
can nation, but on the other hand, feared
the Mexican people might be infameC
and drawn into a conflict which woulC
make them sacrifices to the usurpation
of Huerta

WASHINGTON, April 23-News that
Gen. Nenustiano Carranza constitution

IL 4NOW oIdAuos
The possibility that the Vermont No
tional Guard may be called out to take
part in the Mexican trouble has increased
the interest in Company | materially, and
last evening at the drill six young men
sought the privilege of enlisting.
OF the complete roster of the company
as it stood at drill last night all but five
were present and all but one of those
present signifed their willingness to en-
list for service in Mexico This one man
had valid excuse for declining.
Under the present law the federal gov
ernment would have the right to call the
National Guard of any state into action
anywhere in the United States without
regard to re-enistment, but to have the
men in service in a foreign country re-
quires their re-enlistment which accounts
for the order of Adjutant General Lee s.
Tillotson to the II company commanders
in the state to ascertain at once the num-
Der of men who would re-enlist 1t is

be obtained from any other company in
