Long relentless in its opposi- jtion to President Gerardo Ma- chado, the organization has ac- cepted the American ambassador, Sumner Welles, as mediator in the island’s political impasse. | New York Junta Dissolves | Members of other opposition groups have been gravitating to }its banner, one of the & most {notable actions in this. direction coming .when the — revolutionary {Junta organized in New York year ago was virtually dissolved. Its president,;Dr. Carlos de Ja Torre, told the members: they} were free to join opposition groups in Havana in accepting mediation, jby Mr. Welles. ; The A B C’s emergence as an jactive organization dedicated to the furthering of reform in pub- lic life would be looked upon favorably, it is known, by nearly all those now engaged in seeking to find the solution to ada Se political problem. Furthermore, the same idea has long been in the heads of those actively directing the | society's campaign.
