Militarism

Brigadier General Antonio A. Guerrero was appointed special envoy of Mexico to European countries. His mission is concerned with " 1924 models in war materials "; he is to get bids on the latest artillery pieces and rifles; and he is to inspect the military systems used in the house of war--Europe. His tour will embrace Italy, France, Belgium, Germany. On his return to Mexico City he will submit a plan to the War Ministry for the modernization of the Mexican Army.

Most of the equipment now used by the Mexican Army was bought prior to 1911, when President Porfirio Diaz resigned and General Francisco Madero was elected.
