CHILLY RECEPTION GIVEN
TO MEXICAN DELEGATES
j BUENOS AIRES, May 6. — (By
mail). — With the departure of the
Mexican delegates who came to this
j country as a special embassy from
the President of Mexico and whose
diplomatic credentials were not re
cognized by the government, the long
discussed congress of Latin-Ameri
can neutrals appears to have been
definitely abandoned by this country.
This proposed conference was to
have brought the South and Central
American republics into a closer
union to oppose pressure from larg
er nations and it has been stated here
that it even wras to have served as a
basis for a Spanish-American Union
by leading to another conference be
tween diplomatic representatives of
the member republics and diplomatic
agents of Spain, that country already
having announced its intention of
seeking closer relations w'ith South
America'as soon as the war is over.
That this neutrality conference was
once the dream of President Irigoyen
as the crowning glory of his inter
national policy is no longer doubted,
but it has met with such a cold re
ception since ehe South American
republics began, one by one, to throw
aside their neutrality and cast their
lots with the Entente Allies that no
one was surprised when it was an
nounced that the proposed conference
has been indefinitely postponed.
The aims and purposes of the pro
posed congress never were clearly
set forth, despite the fact that sever
al nations invited to it insisted on
such a statement being made before
they accepted the invitation.
The Mexican delegates who had
been aBigned to attend this confer
ence continued their journey to Ar
gentina after being notified that the
conference had been postponed and
they were coolly received by both the
people and the government of Argen
tina
Sencr Cabrera did succeed in ar
ranging with this government for the
chartering of Argentina transports to
carry cereals to Mexico, but this ar
rangements wras cancelled by the gov
ernment.
