STARVATION
IMMINENT IN
MEXICO CITY
Washington Officials Watch
Development of Serious
Situation in Capital Dip
1onats Are Pessimistic
Over Outlook.

Washington, March 6-Administra-
ton officials today awaited with tense
interest further developments in the
grave situation in Mexico City where
starvation threatens.
Urgent representations by the
American government have been
made to General Carranza through
American Consul Silliman that he di-
rect his commander, General Obre-
gon. to accept the proffer of aid to
Mexico Cfty's needy from the inter-
national relief committee composed
of foreign residents. General Obre-
gon, who had refused to accept the
proffer, is reported to have declared
that Mexico was in need of such aid.
Foreign diplomats here, however, are
pessimistic over the situation in the
Mexican capital Officials here are
none too confident that Carranza
will heed the representations because
he has refused heretofore to do SO.
Pending the outcome, however, OF
the representa- ons, the American
government probably will take no fur
Their action. Among diplomats the
opinion prevails that in case Obre-
gonl continues to refuse outside aid
drastic steps may be necessary, In
official circles an allied expedition
similar to the one that relieved the
Legations at Picking during the Boxer
uprising was being talked of.
