Intervention Urged to End Mexico Turmoil Says Demens
William R. Demens, longtime Butte resident, argues U S intervention is the only path to peace in Mexico. He contends revolutions and murders persist as long as the United States withholds a rigid protectorate and a border blockade, naming Carranza Villa Obregon Zapata and various factions. He predicts US troops could quell hostilities within 90 days and cites oil and mining interests backing intervention while dismissing claims that Standard Oil finances the conflict.
