 carranza's Control Weakening.
 The control of the first chief over the various elements of his army and of his civil government is manifestly weakening, according to official re- ports. Instances have been reported where the tax collectors sent by the Carranza government have been driven out by state authorities and the people. Decrees have been pro- mulgated by state governors dealing with matters that belong. under the Mexican constitution, purely to the central government.

 In dealing with the army, Carranza dares not impose duties repugnant to subordinate officers, according to the views of some officials for fear his orders would be disregarded. While some of the troops of his own per- sonal following would remain loyal it is said, parts of the army would | obey instructions from their direct leaders without regard to Carranzass wishes.

 The fact that the great bulk of the he2Ican people nave only Such re- ports of what has happened and if happening in the border states as theii l leaders choose to give them, increases the danger of the situation. dem | onstration that might end in blood. shed among foreign residents, it il feared, could be easily provoked. ThG consequences probably would be far. reaching and the Washington govern. ment be compelled to take measure: which it has struggled for years tt avoid.
