State Department officials denied the Mexican reports of a mutual defense alliance, They did not deny that mutual | defense discussions have been under way for some time. This correspondent can assert

With eonfidence that discussions began in August after unofficial emisarries from| Mexico City had * brought to Washington the outline of a general plan for co-operation between the two Governments on which, it was claimed, both the retiring Cardenas Government and the incoming |President-elect, Gen. Manuel Avila Camacho, would agree, |

That plan provided for combined naval and air bases at Acapulco, Tampico, Cuidad Del Carmen, Cozumel,’ and bases exclusively for naval use at Salina Cruz and other points, if desired; improvement of Vera Cruz harbor to accommodate deep-draught = vessels—all provided . Suitable loans could be obtained in he United States. It was proposed that the construction work would be conducted by Mexico, although much «. the materials would have to come from the United States. : This outline was presented to both . the State and Navy Departments through unofficial channels, and is believednto have formed at least the basis. for the subsequent diplomatic conversations.

. U. 8. May Extend Credit

Reports that an agreement has been signed were generally believed - here to be premature. The Cardenas Government has only two weeks and two days more, and any agreement must necessarily involve the incoming Government. The Camacho Government takes office on Dec. ‘1, " Some informed sources here believe that if and when an agreement is signed, it is likely to be merely one extending credits to Mexico, such as have been granted to other Latin American governments. Permission for American airplanes and warships to use the designated ports could be in the form of an unwritten agreement or

P.) — Naval authorities reported today that a secret Mexican-United States agreement giving the United States access to Mexican naval and air bases was signed in October. The agreement was said to. have been signed for Mexico by Ambassador Francisco Castille’ Najera shortly after he returned. to Washington on Oct. 28 after a visit here during which he conferred with President Lazaro Cardenas. The Foreign Office spokesman confirmed that general MexicanUnited States defense discussions had been under way for some time, but said he had “no information” that they had progressed to a point where an agreement had been signed. ‘ In some Government quarters .it was believed that nothing of a tangible defense agreement would be reached until after Najera and U. S. Undersecretary of State Sumner Welles have finished conversations on pending problems. Both army and naval authorities insisted that an agreement existed and involved improving eight ports for naval use, five of which would be equipped also as air bases, plus improvement of international highways for military use." Commodore Roberto Gomez Maceo, chief of the Navy Department. declined specific comment on the reported agreement.

Public Hearings to Be Based

DIES PREPARES T0 STUDY NA! U.S, ACTIVITIES

On Material at German Offices.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14 (U. P.). —The State Department yesterday disclaimed any responsibility if the Dies Committee investigating unAmerican activities holds public hearings on activities of German consular agents in this country. This stand was indicated by Secretary of State Cordell Hull who advised Chairman Martin Dies he. must make his own decision on whether to hold such hearings. Mr. Dies’ group had turned .over to the State Department what the committee chairman described as “certain evidence which we obtained showing the activities and propaganda otf German consuls and agents.” Mr, Dies subsequently said in a telegram to Mr. Hull that, unless the State Department could show sufficient cause for further delay, he would go ahead with plans for public hearings on the German activities, based on material seized at German business and news offices here and in New York. He had asked Mr. Hull specifically | whether the inquiry would “create strained relations or jeopardize the position of our representatives in Germany. In his reply, Mr, Hull told Dies that the State Department was “neither an investigating nor a prosecuting agency.” On whether the Dies Committee should proceed with the inquiry, Mr. Hull stated: “. « « The matter of public hearings before your committee is one which concerns the policy of an agency of the legislative branch of the Government, which, I think, you as the responsible head of that agency, must decide in the exercise of your own discretion and

judgment.”
