Conference Aims for Closer US Mexican Troop Cooperation
General Funston said Pershing may meet General Gavira to coordinate operations against bandits. Gavira likely travels to Pershing’s Namiquipa HQ for talks to prevent clashes between Carranza forces and American troops.

In Chihuahua, Pablo Lopez of Villa’s faction, jailed and set for execution, explained Villa’s motives behind Santa Ysabel murders and the Columbus raid. Villa accused Carranza of capitulating to the Gringoes.
