WASHINGTON, July TO-
President Wilson today gave ano

Mexico who are trying to embroil
that country and the United
States in difficulties. Through

agricultural implements and
many other articles will be al
lowed to go acaoss the border to
meet the needs of the Mexican
people. For this favor nothing
will be demanded from Mexico
in return. In effect the presi-
dents action is giving practical
backing the assurances of friend
