I will go even urthe^ and 9ay, there never will be ,ny difference between Gen. Carranza j nd myself that will interfere with he work of the Constitutionalists. "It would be folly for any of the eaders to impede cr in any way lamper the great* wuTk, now that we .re almost within reach of our goal, t simply would be madness to wrangle bout individual differences.
