London, April 24. The Morning Post in an editorial finds the Ameri can note "a most interesting experi ment, inasmuch as it is the first de termined effort on ths part ofxa neu tral nation to deal with the new ele ment in naval warfare." Continuing the Post says: "America is trying to forbid the use of the submarine in the war upon com merce. It does not appear, however, that the American note defines the rules that are to regulate submarine warfare, although tho full text of the note may reveal such a definition. "All that Germany is required to do at present is to abandon what, in one word, is the blackest piracy, on pain of severance of diplomatic rela tions. Exactly what this phase im plies remains to be seen. It does not necessarily involve war, but it may San Antonio, Tex., April 24. The American expedition will be with drawn as soon as erlough troops can be concentrated to insure safe return. This was the unmistakable impression at headquarters here when four mes sages reporting the result of the con ference between Chief of Staff Scott and General Funston were forwarded to the war department. Though army heads had declared earlier that no de cision had been reached, it was later learned that the expedition's future course had been decided and that the decision had gone to Washington in foua installments. On every hand the belief was ex pressed that the troops will soon emerge from Mexico. The concentra tion of additional forces at Columbus was looked upon as part of the pro gram of withdrawal. Their function is to aid in safeguarding the return march. Villa Is Forgotten. Villa is no longer considered, it was stated by. one authority, in close touch with the situation. So far as the bandit was concerned, the expedition ended several days ago. This authority stated that sonce then, those in charge of the expedition feared to undertake a withdrawal under existing circum stances. Army officers showed little restraint in discussing the situation pointing out the good moral effect of the expedition on conditions in Mex ico. uenerai runston would not discuss the situation. Official word of the ex pedition s next move is expected to come from the war department. Chief of Staff Scott left for Washington on Sunday. Carranza Government Faces a Crisis El Paso, Tex., April 24. Tho Car anza government is lacing a crisis which may precede its fall. Its fiat money was selling for $1.50 to $1.75 per hundred dollars value. This meas ures the dependence financial inter ests placed on tho stability of the de facto government.' Reports brought into El Paso by refugees told of bread riots at Tor reon and Durango City in which both oluiers and civilians, including wo men and children, were killed. Carranza Consul Garcia issued what constituted an appeal to the United States to get out of Mexico and leave the Carranza government settle its own troubles, insisting that Carranza would be able to win out if not hampered by the presence of the American expedition. Seed Corn Seized. 1 Practically all the seed corn in Mexico has been seized for food, ac cording to reports, making it impos- ible to plant the 191G crop. With cattle seized or slaughtered by sol diers and bandits, the food situation for the coming year appeared to be hopeless. Even the peons were said to be flocking to the cities for protec tion from looting bands. This week, it is belieed, will prove a decisive one for the Carranza govern ment. If it fails, War Minister Obre- bon, the "strong man" of the present cabinet, may attempt to seize the reins! When the American expedition lead to the formation of a Ieaerue of neutrality against Germany, the com- is withdrawn, the long expected Felix mon enemy of humanity." Diaz revolution is expected to- break The Post expects that Germany will out whether Carranza or Obregon is attempt to lead the Washington pov- m Power. ernment into a controversy over de tails, and adds: , "Germany, confronted with a de mand to relinquish her principal wea pon at sea, will do her utmost to evade the demand and gain time. How much time depends on President Wil son." The Times says: The note is framed with modera tion and self restraint which become the chief magistrate of a great people in a grave and anxious time." The Daily Telegraph says: "It can now be said that today the civilized powers of the earth are vir tually as one. The people of the United States have spoken through their chief magistrate and the voice of the nation is claar, decisive and firm." More Troops Sent. Washington, April 24.
