MEXICO CITY. May a.-Presi-
dent Miguel Aleman was back In his
own land today, convinced that his
Inine-day visit In the United States
and President Truman's visit to
Mexico had demonstrated qualities
of international amity which should
be an example for the whole world. .
A roaring crowd estimated to
number between 900, 600 and 400 600
persons one Of the largest thro1gs
ever seen IN this old city greeted
the returning Chief Executive at the
airport last night with tumultuous
shouts OF Bravo, bravo and
viva Aleman."
Some in the crowd even burst
through double lines of troops
guarding the President and slapped
him heartily on the back.
Church bells rang, rockets flared
in the sky, booming cannons sounded
a 21-gun salute and bands-a almost
unheard in the din--blared out the
national anthem.
Mr.. Aleman returned as he went.

On His Return to Mexico City

people of Mexico deserted their
houses and gathered in, the streets
when President Truman came here
and the people of the United States
gave an equal demonstration of af-

II am sure President Truman's

A sign over the tribune reflected
something of what many In the
crowd felt: THE country receives

1t took President Aleman nearly
an hour to drive from the airport
to the palace, where another huge
sign, in neon, reproduced a quota

United States: Two peoples who
profoundly love their independence

He appeared on the balcony of the
palace to receive continued cheers.
The banks in Mexico were closed
today and government Offices opened

LONDON, May S.-The MOSCOW
radio said today "a number of
deliberate alterations and un-
precise points appeared in the
text OF the recent conversation
Iof Prime Minister Stain with
Republican Leader Harold E.
Stassen, as issued by Mr.. Stassen
and published by the American
press.
The broadcast quoted long and
/! painstaking comparison Of the texts
as published by the Russian news
agency Tass and the English-lan-
guage translation. The chief differ
ences appeared to be variations in
the translation of words. Tass fol
instance, preferred the word "col-
Elaborate" to Cooperate as used
in the English text, and the word
control for regulation.
Tass termed its version the cor
rect one. saying the transcript
handed to Mr.. Stassen in Moscow
was the one approved both by him
self and Mr.. Stain. The lass
translation, however, paraphrased
the interview almost entirely, max
ing virtually impossible a word for
word comparison of the two YER
| sions.
Here are some instances cited by
Moscow:
/. According to the American
text, Mr.. Stassen asked Mr.. Stain
whether these two economic sys-
TENS (the American and Russian)
can exist together in the same mod
|ern world in harmony with each
other" But lass said, Mr.. Stassen
had asked whether these two eco
nonic systems could co-exist in
one world and collaborate with each
other after the war"
2. Mr.. Stassen quoted Mr.. Stain
as saying the United States and
the U. S. S. r. systems are differ
ent, but We didn't wage war against
each other and the U. S. S. r. does
not propose to-" Tass reported
merely that Mr.. Stain said: THE
economic systems of the United
States of America and the U. s. S. r.
were different, but they did not
fight each other but elaborated
during the war" Tass reported
nothing concerning any pledge Of
Russia's future intentions.
8. Mr.. Stassen, who challenged
Mr.. Stalin's prewar statement that
the two systems could not CO.
operate, said the Russian leader re-
piled: II might have said that one
system was reluctant to cooperation
but that concerned only one side.
But as to the possibility of co-opera-
ton, I adhere to Lenin, who ex-
pressed both the possibility and the
desire of cooperation.
Tass. however. paraphrased this.
and said probably he (Stalin) had
said that one system. the capitalist,
for instance, did not want to COL
laborate. but this pertained to de-
sires and not to possibilities of
collaboration"
Stassen's Remarks Challenged.
4. Mr.. Stassen reported that he,
himself, said Imperialism, the de-
velopment of state monopoly and
the oppression of workers are the
evils of capitalism practiced by the
Nazis. 1t seems to me we have
been successful in America In pre-
venting the monopoly of capitalism
and the imperialistic trend, and
that the workers have made greater
progress through the use of their
vote and their freedom than Karl
Marx or Frederick Engels thought
they could make"

Stqssen Commends Press
For Handling Of Story

SOUTH ST. PAUL, MINI, MAY
P).-Harold E. Stassen said TO-DAY
that the American press as q whole
deserves high commentator for 1t.
fair and thorough manner ir
handling the story" OF his recen,
Moscow interview with Prime
Minister Stain of Russia.
Mr.. Stassen, candidate for the
Republican nomination for Presi.
dent, expressed himself in com.
menting on Moscow radios asser.
ton last night that "a number Of
deliberate alterations and unprecise
points" appeared in American press
reports of the transcript of the
interview.
Moscow radios statement was
made on its completion of a 1000
word broadcast of the transcript,
for the Soviet provincial press.
This undoubtedly refers to the
small minority of the American
press which did not print the text
OF the transcript as released in
Washington, but did print a rewrite
and partial paraphrase and con-
densation of the complete inter-
view Mr.. Stassen told the AS
ISOLATED Press.
Still Has Russian Notes.
1.-THE fact that the London
Bureau of the Associated Press COM
pared the Russian broadcast to the
Russian newspapers with the Eng
lish text as released in Washing
ton further corroborates the very
careful and exact translation and
reconciliation of the English and
Russian notes which We made be-
fore the release.
Il still have in my possession the
original notes In Russian of the
conference.
The overwhelming majority of
American newspapers, including
nearly all leading newspapers from
coast to coast. printed the COM
plete and accurate text as released.
and reserved their own comment
for their editorial pages. The
American press as whole deserves
high commentator for its fair and
thorough manner in handling the
story.
With the great difference in press
systems, the Russian press always
has difficulty in understanding that
the individual manner in which a
few newspapers in America handle
a story does not represent the
American press as whole"

"Stassen said that much had been
