my recent visit there, AS guests OF
the CarranZa government, naturally we
were shown the best side and were

opinion that their cordially may be
explained on the grounds that they have

to buy rolling stock and motive power
to put the railroads Of Mexico in proper

Banking conditions in Mexico, so far
as l could determine. are merely mark

congress will enact. The only saliva
ton for the present Mexican authori-

The enactment Of such laws is likely
to stir up trouble; II he does not enact
