R0TARIANS TO
VISIT MEXICO
Delegates To Dallas
Session In May :
Coming Here

DALLAS, Tex, Feb. 16.-(P-Five
OF the delegations expected at the
Rotary Convention here MAY 1871.
numbering perhaps several hundreds.
have already made plans for post
convention tours of Mexico. visiting
the principal cities as a gesture Of
goodwill.
The Rotarians from Germany, COM
ing on the S. S. Cleveland, and the
special trainloads from Cleveland,
Buffalo, New England and Dixie"
have made arrangements to swing
through Mexico from Brownsville, FL
Paso, Laredo and other border points.
to Mexico City and Vera Cruz or
fucatan, returning home via Havana
or New Orleans.
President I. r. "Tom" Sutton Of
Rotary International is in the hard
ware business in Tampico, Mexico. In
the last three years he has visited 20
OF the ~ countries in which there are
Rotary clubs. and his friends have
stimulated interest in Mexico.
Due largely 70 the enthusiasm he
aroused among the business and pro-
fessional men Of Mexico. forty-one
Rotary clubs have been established in
Mexico, in the last eight years, and
their activities have exerted n pro-
found effect upon conditions in their
country.
An unusually large delegation of
Rotarians from Mexico is expected at
the convention because of the prox-
unity of Dallas to their country and
their interest in Rotary. The fact
that the Rotary president is known
to them, and that so many delega-
tons plan TO tour their country after
the convention, are added induce
ments.
As quasi-hosts to the Rotarians
from all over the world. forty-three
Texas Rotary clubs have been chosen
as correspondents TO the Rotarians
from the countries outside the United
States. These clubs provide informa-
ton to the Rotarians in the country
they correspond with, and make per-
sonal contacts with the Rotarians
planning TO come from that country
so they can be of service 10 them
when they arrive in Dallas. The San
Antonio club is the correspondent
club Of Mexico. which is expected TO
send one Of the largest delegations
from a country outside the United
States.

grapefruit juice may be offered TO
the world in bottles it was learned
here today as final papers Of ineor-
poration were being drawn up by a
group of men interested in the bot
Ting of grapefruit and orange juice.
The nam of the new company, which
is reported to have ample capital,
cannot be given at this time, nor the
men who will be actively identified
with the organization. II has been
learned that several Of the most
prominent men of south Texas are
identified in the new industry.
This new Valley industry, which
may rival in volume Of sales Texa-
Sweet grapefruit, is being developed
because of a constantly growing de-
mand for grapefruit juice for health
purposes, and at the suggestion of
jobbers who recommended to the
Texas Citrus Fruit Growers Ex-
change the development of such an
industry so that the pure grapefruit
juice could be sold TO their trade

the consuming public was unable to

No definite plans Of the new or
ganization have been given out for
publication, but it is understood that
the culls and second grades Of fruit
would be suitable for a iuice-preserv-
ing plant, and that, aside from fur
nishing a profitable industry for the
Valley. il would furnish a stable
market for grapefruit that is now.
to a large extent. either wasted or
sold at a very minimum price.
Officials of the Texas Fruit Grow
ers' Exchange said that the plant
would undoubtedly be located at
Mission. where the rapidly i~ncreas-
ing acreage OF grapefruit would in
suse an adequate supply Of fruit to
maintain a plant in continuous opera
tion dhring the shipping season.
