The American press liar loads
himself up easier in Mexico than
in any other section. All OF his
inventive genius is called into
play to launch upon a trusting
public the most untrustwOrthy re-
ports concerning the innocent peO-
pie on the other side of the Rio.
1t is no wonder that the Republic
to the south of us is so hot at times
at the misrepresentation of the
press Of this country. Any lie
from Mexico goes, no matter how
improbable it is. The real harm
that is done thus, is in the false
impressions that intelligent Amer
leans get of their neighbOrs across
the river.
The certainty of hard times in
the old word grows increasingly
sure, and this means an exodus of
EurOpe's unemployed to this cOun-
try. Congress should hedge against
any flooding of this country with
foreign labor at this time, when
there are thousands in every state
in the union that cannot find en-
ployment. The first duty of the
representatives of people is to
care for the interests of that
people, and not to surrender them
to some mandy PANTY senti nent
of general philanthropy.
