Just how the conference here VIII
handle the matter Is apparently the
only question involved, however. The
Mexican delegates admit such re-

cation plan.
The Mexicans feel that II is not
the duty OF the mediation conference
TO write laws for Mexico. The land
problem has run through generations
and they do not believe IT can be
solved here with one stroke OF the
pen. The mediators may only take
up such matters as the delegates pro
pose and 1t will rest with the Amer
lean representatives to suggest some
move toward removing this funda-
mental cause OF all revolutionary
movements The question win then
be whether the scope OF mediation
will include a set plan for the solu-
ton Of the problem or whether 1t Will
be left TO the provisional govern

Those close to the Mexican dele
gates do not believe that any direct
plan OF land reform will be put down
in black and white as a part OF the
final agreement. but they do believe
the Mexican delegates will know ex-
actly what the United States expects
in the solution of this problem, and
that the delegates will have the pow

hind them in seeing that the reforms
proposed are carried out
