MEXICO ADOPTS PLAN SIMILAR TO AMERICA'S NRA By C. P, Nutter ' MEXICO, D. F., W) The Ameri can NRA and the forthcoming Mex ican six-year recovery program are based on the same principles of minimum wages, Improved working conditions and living standards, and Increased buying power, All Mexican industrialists and farmers had letters before them from President Abelardo Rodriguez, who Invited them to Join voluntarily the government's plans for Increasing production and consumption. "It we are to realize our ideal of converting this country from an ex porter of raw products and an Im porter of manufactured articles," the president wrote, "we must start with Increasing our own consumption be cause we will be able to compete In world markets only after we meet our own needs." . . In a letter to state governors re cently Rodriguez asked the estab lishment of minimum wage scales, and later he repeated the plea to employers. The declarations were the first an nouncements of the basis on whloh the rehabilitation project of the rev olutionary party will be drafted In December. A further announcement of the plans Is expected In the presi dent's message to congress Friday. ' "Our scheme of recovery Is not Utopian," Rodriguez said. "It is practical, and we are resolved to make It work. . . . . ' "If employers will co-operate we will realize this goal of our own free will. It cannot be delayed longer. We must and will act for wage In creases, better working conditions, and Increased buying power." The six-year plan will be based on Improvements In working conditions, education, agriculture, and commun ications, with emphasis on the first two. - President Rodriguez said govern ment experts are studying proposals for federal aid to agriculture. The newspaper Excelsior editorially said the hopes of the nation are be- nind the program and predicted that the entire country would support it.
