But the question has been asked, "Why should Argentine, Brazil and Chile take it upon themselves to settle the Mexican trouble?"
 The first answer was that the A, B, c nations were glad to get an op- portunity to ally themselves in Latin-American triumvirate against the United States. Another answer was that the A, B, c nations, with the United States and Mexico wanted to show Europe that the theory of the Monroe doctrine still is true and that all squabbles in North or South America can be settled by the nations of North and South America without European interference.
 third answer made was that the A. B, c nations wanted to show that international quarrels in America could be settled without the aid of the United States and that the A, B, c nations wanted to strengthen the ties between all Latin-American na- tions with the ultimate design os forming an international alliance against the United States. It was pointed out that such an alliance of | only means of preventing the United States from eventually acquiring all the lands to the south.
 Some diplomats declared that all these answers missed the bulls eye and claimed that the A, B, c nations had an entirely different motive. It was argued that conditions in Argen- tina, Brazil and Chile are not all ideal and that each of the nations fears a reactionary movement. It was point ed out that the friendship of the United States for Carranza and the antagonism of President Wilson for Huerta coupled with Villas military ! successes augured well for the suc- cess of the reactionary movement ill Mexico.
 Therefore" said the diplomats "It can easily be seen that A, B, c, jumped at the chance to settle the difference between President Wilson
 and Huerta and thus 1njure the reae- l tionary cause, fearing that the suc- cess of the cause would have in-
 fluence on reactionaries in Argentina
 Brazil and Chile and inspire them to deeds which they would not essay if T Carranza and Villa topple to failure 'l It was pointed out as significan' that Brazil had agreed to act for the
 United States in Mexico City and the
 statement was made that Brazil, witf Argentine and Chile, has entirely sell fish motives for desiring to cement T friendship between the United States
 and the federal government of Mexico Spain is asserted to be in league witf the A, B, c and many reasons there fore have been given. It is we'll knowr
 that the Spanish embassy in Wash
 ington has been acting for Huerts
 just as Brazil has been acting fol
 the United States in Mexico since Charge O'Shaughnessy and Charge
 Algars were handed their passports Il While acting here for Huerta the
 Spanish embassy has had ample op-
 portunity to advance Huerta's cause
 in the eyes of the Unite States ano
 particularly in the favor of President Wilson, it is declared, and Spain is said to be desirous of aiding Huerta | because Carranza and the party that he heads are antagonistic to Span iards who form part of the rich class in Mexico. Villas expulsion of Span iards and confiscation of their prop erty is cited as indicative pffthe at titude of the constitutionalists toward Standards in Mexico.
