Washington, July i7.-While the ad-
n!nis-ration has lost none of its en-
thusissm for the Constitutionalist cause
nor is desire for the rebels of the
North 20 obtain control OF the govern
men. in Mexico City. it is apparent
tbs. President Wilson has decided, now
tins. the embarrassing and unsatisfac-
tory Huer,a phase Of the Mexican Sit
us,ion has passed. to adopt policy un-
Welding in its demand for good govern
nent and the preservation Of peace and
order He will enter into his policy
with his mind made up to use force If
necessary.
The necessity for following such a
course has been shown, as European
nations have already let the United
States know they will insist that Car
rama. when he obtains control of the
government. meet the foreign obliga-
tions Of Mexico. The representations
from Europe have thus far been in
formal, but this does not detract from
their force, and it is certain that as
soon as the situation clears little
formal representations will be made to
,he State Department. The danger
lies in Carranzs's frequent announce
men. that he would not recognize.
much less pay, any Of Huerts's foreign
loans.
Insists Carranza Pay Up.
President Wilson, however, will IN
sist on Carranza's meeting the foreign
obligations contracted by Huerta. This
has been determined. The President
has no intention Of forcing Carranza
70 carry out schemes involving obvious
graft. but he will be called upon by
the United States to repay European
lenders Of money and sellers Of arms
who carried out legitimate contracts.
II this connection it must be remem-
bc1ed that foreign governments rec
ogaized Huerta. Therefore, the na-
.ionals of those countries were fully
entitled to deal with Huerta.
Assurances were received in Wash
ington to-day that Csrranza would en-
gage in negotiations with Carbsjal, the
new provisional President. This is just
what the United States demands, and
Indicates that Carranza has given
favorable response TO the representa-
lions Of the State Department 'aat
.here must be no forcible entry into
Mexico City.
That Carranzs must enter the capital
peacefully is one Of President Wilson's
requirements. No less important is 1t
tia. Csrranza grant amnesty 70 politi-
cal offenders and not execute a large
number of officers who took the side
o. Huerta, as the Constitutionalists
have often boasted they would do. On
this point Carranza has not committed
himself. II is believed that he will
agree % follow the course which
Presiient Wilson outlines.
Church Question Vexing.
Another point OF great importance
eoneerns the treatment By the Constl-
tstioralists Of the Catholic Church. y
is learned here tonight that the Con
s,itg,.onalists intend % resurrect law
passed in 1867 which prohibits the
Chgrch from owning land in Mexico.
The isw has long been ignored, but
ths rebels now purpose 20 revitaIize
x This is likely 20 produce compH-
cations of an important character.
