Huerta Declares U S Flag Salute Not Accepted

Mexico City April 19 The Mexican foreign minister Portilio y Rojas said the United States demand for an unconditional salute to its flag could not be met as the flag was not insulted and marines were at freedom before an investigation. He proposed joint salutes with the US flag first, then the Mexican flag, to be set by protocol signed by Nelson OShaughnessy and the Mexican foreign minister. The US had rejected the protocol and demanded an unconditional salute, which Mexico says would strike at its dignity. Mexico trusts the American people to be fair and just.
