MEXICAN MISSION TELLS
OF SOUTH AMERICAN AIM

BUENOS AIRES. January 1s.-For-
eign Minister Pueyrredon received to-
day as unofficial tourists the Mexican
mission headed by Luis Cabrera. The
Mexicans explained to him that they
expect to attend the South American
neutrality conference when it is held
and have been directed by President
Carranza to spend the intervening
period in studying the South America n
republics.
They expect to visit Uruguay. Chile.
Peru and probably other countries.
They informed the foreign minister
that they had been notified of the post
ponement of the neutrality conference
before leaving New York and. therefore,
were not to be treated as guests Of the
nation during their sojourn in Argen-
tina.
1t is generally believed here the real
mission of the Mexicans is to spread
neutrality propaganda. Cabrera said
he hoped to be received by President
Irigoyen within a few days, when ne
will tell the true objects of my mis-
sion"
The newspapers comment on the fact
that the president delayed his arrival
at his Office nearly two hours today.
He reached his Office half-hour after
the Mexicans had left the government
building after their interview with the
foreign minister.
