MEXICAN CASE AGAIN BEFORE 
 PRES. WILSON
Red Cross Officials Abandon Relief Campaign-Confer
 With Executive

Washington, July 23.-The MeI- can situation again came to the fore front today with a conference between President Wilson and officials of the Red Cross who have virtually aban- doned their campaign for the relief of non-combatants in the southern re- public because of chaotic conditions there.
 The presidents callers included Brig. General c. A. Devo1, general manager of the Red Cross, who di- rected relief work in Mexico; Ernest Becknell, national director and Miss Mabel T. Boardman, a member of the central com nittee. General Devol was to report on the situation and his failure to get the various leaders to facilitate the work of feeding the starving civilian population. He was to tell the president that conditions are even worse than when he called on the leaders to settled their diff ferences. Officials and diplomats were surprised over the reported ac- ton of General sCarranza in servin g notice that he would not receive com nnunfcations from or transact business with foreign governments which have no diplomatic agents accredited to his cause. It had been generally under stood that foreign governments were awaiting action by the Unted States before recognizing any government in Mexico.
 The effect of such action would be to cut off the Carranza government from further communication with foreign nations having ministers resi- dent in Mexico City although it would not, it is believed, sever his informal relations with the United States as he said to regard Consul SiIlinan at Vera Cruz as a properly accredited agent.
