MONDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1921.
THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND. OREGON
GREETINGS SENT
TO PORTLAND BY
MEXICAN CHIEF
To step across the border from the
United States into Mexico Is stepping
backward and not forward. In the
opinion of I. Aronson, one of the
Portland members of the Mexican
industrial and trade tour party pi
loted into the -southern country by
the California Industries association.
This opinion is expressed in a letter
received by Mrs. Aronson Saturday.
"The backward step is one of almost
2000 yesrs. writes Aronson, who says
the dwellings are squalid and people
traveling first class travel about like
cattle do in this country, while -those
traveling: second class are , roped into
dingy cars and handed food through the
windows. . ' y
BOADS LIKE SCRAP. HEAP
Aronson writes from Mexico City,
where the trade excursionists wers
scheduled to stay 10 days. The letter
was written last Sunday. - .
Although the party of Americans were
traveling in their own cars from the
states," Aronson said that the party
almost became seasick traveling over the
"scrap Iron" that served as -railways.
He Is of the opinion that had the rails
in Mexico been in the United States 100
years ago, they would have been de
clared scrap iron and consigned to the
Junk heap.
Between the border and Mexico City
the Americans traveled over some of
Villa's old "stamping, grounds" and
tracks-which had been torn up were but
roughly relayed.
PRESIDENT GREETS PARTY
Soon after crossing the border one of
the members of the party from San
KranclHCo became 111 and Aronson said
that Dr. A. W. Moore of this city, who
i was ono of the members of the party,
- diagnosed the case as smallpox. Every
one in the car all San Franciscans-
were vaccinated.
At Mexico City the party was royally
received, says Aronson, and official re
ceptions were accorded the trade ex
cursionists on all sides. General Obre-
Eon, president of Mexico, seemed par
ticularly -anxious to impress the Ameri
cans that they were welcome.
OBREGON 8EXDS GREETINGS
After visiting a numbfr of other cities
In Mexico the party will return to the
4Inited States, March 4.
Members of the party from Portland
were Aronson, Dr. Moore, J. P. Jaeger,
O. B. Ballou, II. A. Speer, Dr. H. C.
Jefferds, H. M. Tapst and Dr. C JU
.Booth, j J. A. Mason joined the party
en route.
Mason Saturday wired this bulletin to
The Journal:
"In an interview granted your special
correspondent at.. Chapultepec castle.
President Obregon sends greetings to the
people of Portland and the Northwest
as roiioys :
" 'I send a message of friendship from
Mexico to you. I wish that you receive
the best Impressions through .the visit
of your Industrial representatives and
hope.it will bring beneficial results to
. poth countries in the future. "
