has passed. Carranza's attitude-now
one OF cooperation and friendliness
-gives tremendous satisfaction to the
officials. But the border danger still
lives. Three problems are yet to be
solved: Withdrawal Of the punitive
expedition; cooperative border pat
rol; cleaning up OF northern Mexico
and re-establishing Of peace and
order. There are few officials who
do not believe three months will see
American troops entirely out Of Mex

military movement VIII he hastened
BY evidence Of determination shown
BY Carranza troops to clean up north
kern Mexico.
Tomorrow the president and his
Icabinet will take up this phase Of
/ the question It Is known military
authorities believe there Is no further
reason why the punitive, expedition
should remain in Mexico-at least
further south than patrol zone along
ktne border itself. It is known, fur
ther, that these authorities feel it will
be unnecessary and impractical to re-
hahn the different militia organiza-
hons on the international line for

months at most-or no. so long IL
