[edit]

So, just how was the dispute resolved.

It occurred on a visit between John F. Kennedy and the president of Mexico. --Ancheta Wis 12:44, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please

[edit]

And see http://strangemaps.wordpress.com/2008/03/06/252-a-river-runs-through-it-the-chamizal-dispute-1895-1963/

The subject would be so much clearer, with the addition of 5 or 6 additional maps, with different colors for Mexico, US, river, and disputed territory
1) 1852 map
2) 1864 map
3) 1868 map?
4) 1910 map
5) 1963 map

Can anyone with sufficient knowledge on the subject please help? --Lacarids (talk) 21:30, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Three bridges?

[edit]

Which of the four present bridges in downtown El Paso was not built in the 1960s? --NE2 05:47, 9 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Text and map are contradictory

[edit]

The article says the river gradually moved southward, but the accompanying map shows the river to have moved northward. Given this contradiction, it is hard to figure out the geography of the dispute, or to make sense of the American and Mexican positions in the negotiations.MayerG (talk) 04:18, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Final improvements to be made

[edit]

This has become an excellent little article! The last paragraph, on resolution, has some contradictions and inconsistent chronologies (Johnson met Lopez-Mateos in '64, but when? And why is this mentioned before the congressional legislation passed in '63?) Since the sources cited are not on the internet, they are difficult to verify. --Neopeius (talk) 18:53, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
