Cardenas Pledges Highway Support Increased tourist and commercial trade between California and Mexico looms as the result of an announcement that President Lazaro Cardenas of Mexico has just pledged $1,120,000 for construction on the International Pacific highway between Mexico City and the United States. Official confirmation of the executive's assurance of financial aid was received this week by H. W. Keller, vice-president and director of the Automobile Club of Southern California from Carlos V. Ariza, secretary of the Mexican central committee working for development of the western road connection with this country. This committee, composed of business, agricultural and administration leaders of western Mexico recently arranged issuance of bonds to secure two million pesos. President Cardenas promised to double the bond subscription from federal funds. The new international highway is routed along the west coast of Mexico via Guadalajara with Nogales, Arizona, the northern terminus.

G. Brenneis, supervisor of the Cleveland forest. Brenneis issued this statement recently, stating it is useless for residents to come to the local forest office for permits.
