McDonald dated 10/3/34 that "I returned last night with General Calles from Monterrey and found your telegram C-336...", and "The matter of these claims [of Mexican Treasury against SPM for the introduction of fuel oil at Nogales as well as income tax owed by SPM for car rentals], however, is held up due to the good offices of President Rodriguez and General Calles..."
