CONSUL SAYS MEXICO
MORE FRIENDLY THAN
EVER TO AMERICANS
Better Feeling and Bust.
ness Interests Should
Benefit.

There has never been a better feel
ing toward Americans and American
business interests in Mexico than at
the present time. according 10 Alejan-
dro Lubbert. Mexican consul general,
who returned from Mexico City We'd
nesday afternoon. Consul Lubbert ac-
companied the delegates from San An
tonic who went TO convey the personal
fluctuations of the people of San An
tonic to President Oregon on the oc-
casion of the resumption of diplomatic
relations between the two countries.
Business men in Mexico are optimis-
tic about the future and expect much
good TO result from the renewal OF
friendly relations between the two gov
ernments, Consul Lubbert said. He
expressed confidence that capital in
vested in lands, mines or other indus
tries would rapidly multiply under
present conditions. Americans are al
ready going into Sonora. and the peo-
pie Of San Antonio should Immediately
avail themselves of the opportunities
that exist there and elsewhere in Mex
leo, he said.
Consul Lubbert extends an invita-
ton TO all who wish TO gain informa-
ton about Mexico and the opportuni-
ties presented by that country TO call
at his office. He says he will be glad
to air in any way possible people who
desire to enter Mexico for legitimate
business purposes.
There exists an exceedingly friend
ly feeling toward the San Antonio
delegates who were the first TO arrive
in Mexico Citl after recognition, he
said. They were declared the honored
guests of the city. and the authorities
were sorry that they could not remain
longer. A number of affairs were
planned for their entertainment but
could not be held on account OF the
short time they remained in Mexico, he
said.
President Obregon expressed regret
that the official duties prevented him
from personally receiving the delegates
Consul 'Lubbert stated. He had IN
tended TO entertain them personally.
He expressed his appreciation OF the
fact that the people of San Antonio
have always been friendly toward him
and his administration and toward the
Mexican people as a whole.
President Claud V. Birkhead and I.
c. Wolfe of the chamber of commerce
