Mediation Split Over Mexican Interim President Fastnarrows
Niagara Falls June 10. Americans and mediation plenipotentiaries clash over two issues in the conference. Mediators demand a neutral provisional president not tied to the constitutionalist cause, while U S delegates require a president with constitutionalist sympathies. They also resist Huerta appointing a foreign minister who would then become provisional leader. Debate centers on a technical succession versus nonrecognition of Huerta. The mediators argue the form is secondary to the outcome, but the Americans insist on a constitutionalist-backed choice. Continued on third page.
