Abstract
Description
4 copies. Appreciates gracious gesture of Mexico City in naming this handsome avenue for an American citizen whose prestige transcended the frontiers of his native country; Franklin was perfect type of the honest and strong man of the new world; in these difficult times when free world is struggling to maintain its traditions of freedom and humanity, it is heartening to render homage to one of the founders of U.S., who two centuries ago struggled resolutely for the same ideals being defended today.
