The latter, said President
Lopez Mateos, will be repro
duced on Christmas cards
sent out at Yuletide by both
Chief Executives from either
side of the Rio Grande.
The dramatic six-foot-wide
picture of Popocatepetl as
seen from above was pre-
sented to Mr.. Eisenhower last
evening at the brilliant
white-tie dinner given in his
honor at the Mexican En-
bassy.
THE FIRST LADY was to
have shared the honors with
her husband, but withdrew
from the dinner yesterday
because of a sore throat. The
White House announced that
her luncheon today in honor
of Sonora de Lopez Mateos
would take place as planned.
At the end of the dinner
President Lopez MateoS rose
to address a few remarks to
his 80 guests. Each hour
that we have spent here" he
said, each place we have
visited and each person with
whom we have spoken have
repeated one word which we
had already heard in

with a smile, and would feel
still more sympathetic toward
him.

We want to keep him; We love

Second. whatever the doc

to tell him stories. People say
that the fault is with the

Why, wouldn't even let
