Part of a larger study entitled "El Estado mexicano y la banca privada norteamericana."

The creative plan and statute of the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic prepared by the Englishman Sir Otto Niemeyer, established immediate and mediate functions.

An excerpt from A. B. Aguilar Plata's, R. Alvarez's, & R. Buentello's Marco de Referencia para el Estudio de la Prensa Diaria de la Ciudad de Mexico ([Reference Point for the Study of the Daily Press in Mexico City], Dissertation, National Autonomous University of Mexico, 1974). The morphological aspects (section formats, space devoted to different subjects, & distribution of contents over available space) & contents of 9 Mexico City dailies (5 issues each) are analyzed. Characteristics of each paper are traced by front (news), internal, & editorial sections; the wire services used by each are listed. On the whole, none of the papers presents a total panorama of events; each selects information from a particular viewpoint or stresses particular aspects of the news. Over 90% of the information presented is news, of which a high percent is obtained from foreign sources (wire services). The predominant themes of national interest are: guerrillas, education reform, foreign debts, agrarian reform, indigenism, political parties, & student problems at Mexican universities. 9 Tables. S.
