Embassy misquotes spark confusion over Carranza proposal
Washington reports claim the Mexican embassy announced President Wilson accepted Carranza’s reciprocity plan allowing Carrancistas to cross the border in pursuit of Villistas. White House soon denied any action and said no talks with Secretary Lansing had occurred, warning only possible trouble could come from unruly factions. The embassy blamed misquotation of Carranza’s manifesto, saying the text matched the letter sent to Lansing last week.
