Notwithstanding the fact that the French government last November expressed Its willingness to accept Senor PanPs nomination he has been unable to present his credentials to the French government throughout his long stay In Paris. In view of the above circumstances President Carranza 'through 'this department has ordered that Senor Panl, together with the legation corps proceed from France to Spain, there to await cabled instructions." The other statement follows: “The conference now meeting at Paris has considered the recognition of the Monroe doctrine. Some governments, friends of Mexico, have asked Mexico for its opinion regarding the doctrine and the Mexican department of foreign relations has answered that the Mexican government has not recognized and will not recognize the Monroe doctrine or any other doctrine that attacks the sovereignty and independence of Mexico." The recall from Paris of Minister Pani has been rumored unofficially for more than a week. There have also been reports that Gen. Eduardo Haya, who has been nominated Mexican minister to Italy, also will be recalled, although there Is no official information relative to the latter report.
