New Revolutionary Outbreaks
NumerOus-Government Still
Embraces Carranza Regime

Washington, July THE Mexican
situation is receiving more careful
study by the American government
than any subject since the Paris
peace conference, it was stated today
at the state department. This is with
a view to according recognition to De
LIE Huerta's provisional government,
provided satisfactory assurances are
given that it can and will maintain
order and will live up to the obliga-
tions respecting protection to lives
and property of foreigners.
American officials, it is stated au-
thoritatively, are impressed with the
evident sincerity of expressions of
Huerta and of efforts TO bring about
good order in Mexico, but have taken
note that active workers in the various
departments of the Mexican govern
ment are the same as those who
served under Carranza.
Difficulties of the reorganization of
the administration apparently are not
the least serious, as reports today
told of several new revolutionary dis
turbances in various parts of the
country. They seemed distinct from
the movement led by Villa, who has
signed an ar1nistice, according to of,
ficial dispatches.

the work of eliminating the rats and
in a thorough cleanup campaign
around each residence. This commit
tee will be called to meet with the
