Wilson Likely to Take Action Before Congress Thursday
President Wilson may outline the Mexican crisis to Congress on Thursday. Postmaster General Burleson hinted Carranza might reverse his decision to hold American troopers in Chihuahua City. Latin American diplomats pressed Carranza to meet U S demands and avoid war as delays in replying to the ultimatum sparked hopes of a reversal. Carranza is consulting Latin American officials. Senator Lewis says Carranza seeks their support and might admit Trevino overstepped in the crisis.
