 The facts. ever since, have prov. ed that I did just my duty when joining that movement, and, therefore feel sincerely happy tonight in cele- brating here the event of the inaugur- ation of President Obregon. who real ly was the popular candidate for the presidency, and who is. 1 am sure. the man who will make out of my country a peaceful and prosperous one. supporting my countrymen in every possible way. to obtam tnerr redemption and welfare.
 The secretary of state. Mir. Colby, last October. when announcing the in tentions of the American government to extend recognitio7 to the Mexican administration, headed by President de la Huerta, said that the new re- gime has given indication of stability, sincerity, and a creditable sensitive ness to it's duties and their just per formance.' That means that the men that Mexico needs have come 10 her service; that the new regime. l mean provisional and constitutional admits trations have had popular support; that life and property are fully pro tectod:e that every promise of liber alized rule is being fulfilled; that we really desire cordial relations with United States and all the civilized countries; and that we will be ready to make every effort possible to pro- tect foreign capital. legitimately in- vested for the development of our re- public
 Everyone of you know how have endeavored to increase the mutual good will of United. States and Mex ico, and, therefore, l repeat that l feel awfully happy tonight in toasting to the welfare of General Obregon. to the best friendship and better uu- derstanding of our governments, our peoples, and our countries, and also to your personal welfare" @
