The industrialization of mexico

For years, the average Mexican, and most especially the Mexican farmer, has been existing on an economic level which does not include an adequate supply of even the barest necessities. The Mexican Government, in its desire to raise the standard of living, realizes that the only hope for a country whose agricultural lands already are overpopulated lies in industrialization. For equipment, for technical information, for investment, Mexico looks to the United States with the assurance that, rather than close the market to foreign products, the fostering of Mexican industry, by increasing the economic capacity of the people, will create an even greater demand for American-made goods.
