that the Mexican President was tottcr-

Their. never was any doubt that. the
United States having announced its un-

make the Washington edict effective has
surprised the world and given the Nd
ministration many uncomfortable months.
besides winning Huerta n certain inter
national admiration as man of iron.
For the first four months OF President
Wilson'S Administration he was abso-
lutely silent regarding the Mexican situa-
ton. though IL gradually became known
that he did not intend TO grant official
recognition to the IIuerta Government.
Late in June, 1918, representatives, ~

letter of protest In which 1t was declared
that the United States had largely con
trlbuted to the anarchicsl conditions and
that II ought either to recognize Huerta
