RADICAL CHANGE IN
MEXICAN POLICY
cARRANZA is WARNED THAT
MURDERS AND ouTRAGES OF
AMERICANS MUST CEASE.
Communication couehed in Strongest
Language Used in Any From This
Government Since Vera Cruz
Occupation.

Washington. President Carranza
and the Mexican government has been
warned that Americans must be pro-
tected in future.
The first definite move toward the
long expected changes in policy in
dealing with Mexico was disclosed on
Thursday.
Carranza has been warned that if
the murders and outrases OF Ameri-
cans continue, the United States may
be forced 10 adopt a radical change
in its policy with regard 10 Mexico"
With the announcement at the state
department. however, came no author
itative indication of how far the Amer
lean government is preparing TO 20 To
enforce what lacks only the diplo-
matte technicalities of an ultimatum.
The government announced its ac-
ton by publishing an exchange of
notes with Mexico City. and prefaced
its official statement with the expla-
nation that the diplomatic representa-
tons referred 10 had been taken in
view OF the long series of murders
aud outrages OF American citizens in
Mexico, eliminating in the murder of
Peter Catron in San Luis PotoSi last
month. and the perpetrators of other
acts in disregard of American lives and
property"
The communication TO Mexico is
couched in probably the strongest lam
suage used in any from this govern
ment since the exchanges preceding the
Vera Cruz occupation.
All official Washington began at
once looking behind the official text
seeking some reason for an impending
change of policy, for which there has
been demand in and out Of congress,
Pressure from foreign governments
and pressure in congress which is
preparing an Investigation of he
whole Mexican situation were among
those most commonly discussed.
oUtwardly there WAS no reason ap-
parent except the long and growing
list OF outrages on Americans.

Asked how the Shantung agreement
might lead 10 war between Japan and

there were many dangerous elements
involved. AS an example, he said, the
cumulative effect of Japan's successes
in China might easily encourage her
TO assume commercial rights which
would treSpass on the Hay Open-door
policy or on the special commercial
treaties the United States has with
