" Several Latin American countries
have offered their friendly mediation to
the Mexican government and the latter
has accepted in principle. Therefore
the Mexican government only awaits
information that the government of the
United States would be disposed to ac-
cept this mediation for the purpose
mentioned above or whether it is still
of the belief that the same results may
be attained by means of direct negotia-
tons between both governments.
In the meantime this government
proposes to employ all efforts that may
be at it's disposal to avoid the recur-
renee Of new incidents which may com
plicate and aggravate the situation. AT
the same time it hopes that the Ameri-
can government on its part may make
use of all efforts to prevent also new
acts of its military and civil authorities
on the frontier that might cause new
complications.
