A resolution to this effect was tabled. The resolution sought to place the legislature on record bs urging the United States government "to with hold its recognition to the de facto government of Mexico until it is made manifest that a government is estab lished in that revolution-ridden repub lie with which the civilized nations of the world may decently maintain dip lomatic relations."
