Pacifying Mexico Remains Elusive Says Carranza
A Washington report notes Gen Venustiano Carranza resists the Atlantic City protocol and demands unconditional American troop withdrawal from Mexican soil. Pershing’s 32,900 strong force gains border protection but lacks clear military authority to engage, while political risk of cooperation with Carranza dims prospects for a final accord. The fate of Pershing’s command hinges on a president order yet to come.
