CARRANzA ASKS
TROOP REMOVAL
New Mexican Note Reaches
State Department.
WANTS PROOF OF AVOWAL

Says Withdrawal of American Sol
dlers Would BE Conclusive Evidence
of the Assertion That United States
Does Not Seek War With Mexico.
Washington, June IA new note
from General CarranZa asking for "A
definite explanation of the continued
presence of American troops In Mexi-
co and renewing his previous request
for their withdrawal was presented TO
the state department by Eliseo Are
dondo, Carranza ambassador.
General Carranza's new note refers
to the repeated declarations that the
United States wants no war with
Mexico and argues that the withdraw
al of the troops would be the best
proof of that attitude on the part of
the American government.
The continued presence of the puni-
tive expedition, the note says, is hav-
ire a contrary effect

troops are now able, both in numbers
and position, to control outlawry in
Northern Mexico and that co-opera-
ton by the American troops in pre-
venting incursions into the United
States can best be carried on by hav-
ing the forces on the American side
OF the border.
1t declared that had the American
troops now in Mexico been engaged
in patrol on the American side the
Glenn Springs and Boquillas raids
could have been prevented.
State department officials regard the
note not as an ultimatum. but as a
continuance of the negotiations with
the Carranza government

may be credited as to the views OF
governments and peoples concerning
the possibilities and the problems OF
peace. This is particularly true with
regard to the Germans and Russians,
for at this time the nationals of these
countries make up by far the larger
part of the foreign population IN
Scandinavia. Officials and travellers
from France and England are also
constantly passing through Stockholm
on their way to Petrograd, leaving be
hind their entirely informal and unof-
ficial ideas AS TO what the future
holds.
From contact not alone with Of
ficials and men of influence fresh
from the warning countries, but with
the diplomats accredited to the
Swedish capital as well, the CORE
spondent of The Associated Press can
state that each government as II con
templates the terms Of peace sees
behind any prospective International
negotiations the far graver problem OF
squaring with its own people the
menacing account in which balance
must be struck between benefits won
and the staggering losses Of blood and
wealth. What will the common peo-
