"Mexico Needs Us"

With E. M. Herr, President of the Westinghouse Electric & Mfg. Co., as their stout Cortez, a group of U. S. bankers, manufacturers, exporters goes this week to Mexico. The purpose of the mission is to further industrial and financial relationships between the two countries. The personnel includes some of the most impressive figures, some of the most distinguished names known to business. Said Mr. Herr, who has long stared with eagle eye at the Pacific: "This expedition is not a selling proposition nor a sight-seeing tour. It is a mission of good will. The U. S. and Canada have long prospered commercially by reason of their friendship. Why not another marriage between undeveloped resources and American capital? Mexico needs us and we need Mexico."
