the work OF the mediators at least
some thought lis a concession from his
original stand which was that he
would not take part in any mediation
for the settlement Of Mexico's internal
differences
President Wilson and his advisors
are pleased over this assurance from
Carran2a and the confidence OF the ad-
ministration IN Il successful outcome
of the Niagara Falls proceedings was
stronger tonight than 1t has been up
to this time.
Csrranzas attitude is not construed
as flatly committing him to the media
tion, but it is accepted here as evidence
Of a more liberal spirit on his part. In
its practical effect Carranzas stand
means that he can push on toward
Mexico City and act as he deems best
toward the mediation program when 1t
is finally announced.
Up TO this time the conferences at
Niagara Falls have been waiting upon
the efforts from Washington to bring
Carranza into the proceedings. Car
ranZa's previous statement that he
would not consider the mediation of
Mexicos internal differences led TO
doubt as to whether anything could be
accomplishe II, therefore, became
necessary to get an expression from
him that he would at least consider
the result before the conferences at
Niagara Falls could proceed on any
sound basis
