New York, March 23-The only
hitch in restoring friendly relations
between the United States and Mex
leo is one of proceedings, declares
President Harding in a letter to John
Barrett, former director general OF
the Pan-American Union, made pub
lie tonight by Mr.. Barrett with per-
mission Of the White House.
The presidents letter, dated March
ol was in reply to one addressed TO
him by Mr.. Barrett in which the lat
ter laid before Mr.. Harding sum-
mary of answers received from lil
representative Latin Americans in 20
republics to the question asked of
200 as to what they believed the
United States might do on its own
initiative to promote Pan-American
friendship.
In his reply Mr.. Harding said:
MIR. Christian has handed to me
your letter of March 20, and | am
frank to say that have read it with
very great interest. l am not at all
surprised at the expression of senti-
mont in the Latin American repub-
lies which your letter conveys. AS Il
matter of fact we feel that way hero
in the capital Of our own republic.
There is really no difference of
opinion as to what is necessary TO
restore our former friendly relations
between our own republic and that Of
Mexico. The only hitch anywhere is
one Of proceedings. Undoubtedly
both countries are of the same mind,
excepting that We cannot arrive at a
program which cures the whole stu
alton in one complete program which
is to be executed at one time"
