Mexico (UPI) -President Miguel de la Madrid Thursday ended a four-day tour of the five Northern Mexican atates by promising to support further industrialization along the U.S. -Mexico border by expanding the maaui- lndora, "twin plant," program.

The maquiladora industry, attracting U.S., and other foreign plants with its ample supply of cheap labor, has been booming while the rest of Mexico suffered through a series 'bf currency devaluations. More than 800 foreign-owned plants creating more than 102,000 new jobs havo been added since he' took office in 1982, De La Madrid told a group of journalists. "We, want to foment economic growth and social growth along the northern border. We are establishing a plan to provide the necessary infrastructure for" continue growth," he said. The Mexican president said be-, cause of economic depression throughout the rest of Mexico that the border cities appear to have a higher quality of life and less unemployment than the rest of the country.

Earlier, he spent four hours in private meetings, first with business and educational leaders, then with agricultural representatives in this city across the Rio Grande from Brownsville, Texas. Dozens of armed soldiers stood in ranks up and down the blockaded streets, and kept watch on rooftops during the talks. Though "Matamoros has been ruled by a provisional mayor and city council since election fraud charges were lodged by minority parties last December, there were no organized protests and the only visibile dissent were a few signs demanding higher crop prices that were hoisted as he drove in a motor-. cade from the airport Wednesday night. In a pepe rally-like rally speech to 100 journalists who were not permitted to ask questions, De La Madrid said that his program to strengthen educational and urban services would help attract industries to the border.
