There was an argument over the arrangement about taking and selling a picture of Mrs. Desene's boy and Hall claimed to have left the house as soon as he could gather up his samples after the woman ordered him to go.

 The incoming president said that Mexico was proud of her hospitality and generosity which had been dem onstrated for more than a century, and also proud of her independence. She would not change her policy of allowing foreign workers and capi- tai to come and share the advan- tages of the land. He also promised that no prohibitive duties would be placed on foreign manufactured ar- ticles that did not compete with Mexican industries.
 In regard to financial obligations he said the administration would en- deavor to comply strictly with them whether they were internal or for eign.
 Turning to domestic affairs, Portes Gil said that there would be strict fulfillment of the revolutionary pro- gram and continuance of the work of the Obregon and Gales adminis- trations. He said it must be frank ly admitted that the revolution had incurred errors. one of the principal of which had been the formation of governments of friends" relegating to second consideration questions of capability and justice in connection with the appointment of officials.
 The new president explained that it had been impossible for foregoing administrations to settle this prob lem because of unfavorable condi- tions existing at the time. He point ed out that General Obregon had his hands full dealing with those who thought that the revolution was merely a pretext for changing lead CTS.
 Despite this, he said, General Obregon had butt a foundation for a realization of the hopes of the Mexican people.
 Portes Gil added that President Gales did his part in opening a path to the moralization Of the adminis- tration by introducing a plan of economy. founding the Bank of Mexico, building roads, and further ing irrigation projects.
 The incoming president said that it would be task of his administra- ton to strive to approach even near CT to perfection. Therefore he wishes his government to be a gov ernment made up of men best pre- pared.
