Bankers Not Ready
TO Call for Deposit
OF Mexican Bonds
Situation Is Not Developed
Sufficiently for Taking
Step, According to View
of International Group

thomas W. Lamont, of J. P. Morga n
& Co., announced yesterday on behalf Of
the international Committee Of Bank
ers' on Mexico that the situa ton in
Mexico las not developed Sufficiently
as yet to make it desirable to call for
a deposit of ,-eXican government Sc
curitics.
The statement, made in response to
inquiries from holders Of Mexican Sc
curities, said:
"The international committee has
had under consideration the question
of calling for a deposit Of Mexican
government securities. 1t does not
feel, however, that the situation in
Mexico has developed sufficiently to
make this step desirable at this
lunctpre. The COZ nlttee is observing
the situation carefully and stands pre-
pared to take any steps which NAV
seem advisable for the interests of
holders of Mexican government se-
curlties. This announcement is beinr
made simultaneously by the repre-,
sentatlves Of the committee in Lon
oon; Paris, Amsterdam and Geneva. !"
shortly before the Carranza gov
efnment lost control at Mexico Citv
Ratael Nieto, Assistant Minister Of
finance, gave American bankers as
sulahce that Mexico was in a position
to resume payment of interest on it's
debt and asked that some arranrc.
ment he made for funding the back
interest on Mexican securities. Before
the matter could be adjusted the Car
rama regimc was oustod.
SO far the rew government in
5ieTlco hes not informed the interna-
uonal bankers Of its intentions with
regard to resumption of the debt
service, 1t was stated Yesterday.
