Gently was pro -German. is endeavoring
10 negotiate an understanding with the

government would subscribe TO sup

II is not unlikely that, az a result Of
these negotiations Mexico will pro-

as il can give the allies
II is probable that Mexico will break
relations with Germany, particularly
II circumstances should arise prompt

Whatever the outcome. 1t may be
stated that CarranZa has experienced
a change OF heart sInce--since-well,
since the Cnited States began loaning
billions Of dollars to It's allies He now
is eager to do anything the United

has been given TO understand that he
cannot expect to obtain financial as
sistance from the United States unless
he first ,eradicates the suspicion that
he Is IN league with German interests.
Mexico is becoming more and more
conspicuous for It's absence from the
