Book excerpt: Excerpt from Machine Tools in Latin America Machine tools are used to a limited extent in the railroad construo tion shops, the smelting plant, and the mining plants of the Aguas calientes consular district. In the city and State of Aguascalientes nearly all such tools are of American make. In Zacatecas it is estimated that three-quarters of the machine tools are of American make and the other quarter of German and English manufacture. American-made machine tools are generally preferred to those manufactured elsewhere, and even the foreign firms that handle both American and fore' tools admit the superiority of the Amer ican tools, although for ot or reasons they continue to sell the German and English products.
