Calif. (AP) -The presidents of the United States and Mexico pledged: themselves Saturday to build stronger bonds of peace and friendship between their nations and in the world. They even agreed to a plan for heading off additional border disputes such as those which have plagued the two countries through the years and there may be some changes along the Rio Grande. President Johnson and dent Adolfo Lopez Mateos wound up two days of conferences and issued a long, formal communique that emphasied the strengthening of peace, ship, the Alliance for Progress, the Organization of American States. trade and control of illegal traffic in drugs.

There was no mention of American troubles with Cuba and Panama. American ants said these played a minor role in the conferences. But Lopez Mateos tossed off. a surprise suggestion at a news conference that, "It is to the United Nations to which the United States should turn to find a solution of its problems with Cuba." He said Cuba has been ousted from the QAS. The United States position is that only the Castro regime, and not the Cuban state, is out of the OAS.

There was no indication that Johnson and his administration intend to turn to the United Nations at this point when the OAS already is wrestling with the Cuban situation. The Mexican president also said he thought the case of Panamanian-American culties is something the OAS can solve. The Mexican and American executives met Friday and Saturday at a conference table in this desert resort. IS IT THIS THE FINAL WEEK!
