CARRANzA ASKS
U. S. FRIENDSHIP
President of Mexico De-
clares His People Have
Been Misrepresented.

San Antonio. Tex. Feb. BIN an
interview given exclusively to the San
Antonio Express and San Antonio
Evening News at the City of Mexico,
President Carranza dictated the fol-
lowing message to the people of tho
United States:
My message to the people of the
United States is: The people of Mex
leo are cordial toward the people of
the United States,- but the policy of
the foreign interests, which at times
threatens the interests of the Mexican
people, has created a sentiment of
distrust for which the Mexican people
cannot be blamed. On the other had.
the American people, misled by these
same interests, think the Mexican
people unfriendly, and this policy, fol-
lowed by the foreign interests and
spread throughout the country in their
press. is responsible for this mistrust
and lack of cordial understanding be-
tween the two peoples"
Mexico to Pay Debts.
President Carranza said that short
ly Mexico in all probability will be-
gin paying. in part, the interest of
her foreign Indebtedness. This in
cludes the interest on the railroads
that are steadily being put in bet
ter shape. The revenues of the coun-
try are now on such a scale that the
necessarily big budget is soon to be
met and the prospects are for a sur
plus
Il am going to devote the rema inder
of my administration to the CONVEX
sion of our financial obligations" said
CarranZa.
The president stated that Mexico
is at peace; that the occasional out
breaks of lawlessness in Isolated sec
tions are not military problems, but
are due to pernicious activity of in
terests seeking intervention. Along
this line he spoke with emphasis.
showing a depth of resentment against
outside interference in Mexico's po-
litical matters.
