Mexico has no diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union, but Mexican Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Puig Casauranc was asked by the three Great Powers what would be the attitude of Mexico toward Russia's entry in the League.

...hours later the coffin of Señora Calles was conveyed to the neighboring Panteón de Dolores, the national cemetery. There a battery of artillery fired the presidential salute. Minister of Education Puig Casauranc pronounced a brief, non-religious address, alluding matter-of-factly to the future life. This was deemed fitting because of the anti-religious views and policy of Señor Calles and his Cabinet (TIME, Feb. 22, 1926, et seq.). Because Señora Calles was a devout Roman Catholic, persons of that faith rejoiced to hear that a priest had performed appropriate last...
