AMERICAN INTERESTS
IN GUATEMALA

II would appear that the school OF jour
nalism which In the United States and
in the heats OF summer occupies itself
with dispatching fleets to the Pacific and
precipitating war with Japan has some
active disciples In Latin America. The
assertion is freely made that some Of the
false and pernicious publications, original
ly appearing in journals in the Spanish
language. concerning the present situation
in Guatemala have misled not few Of
the reputable members OF the American
press. II Is stated that many Of these re-
ports. originally published IN Spanish,
have been spread broadcast in the United
States through agencies controlled by
enemies of the Guatemalan government.
This method Of carrying a political con-
test In Guatemala into America, through
misrepresentation and through exaggera-
tions OF reports which were false even in
their origin, Is beginning to attract not
little attention in financial circles In the
United States. Il is perceived that such
method Of attack. if it can be prose-
cuted successfully. is calc;i!ated not alone
TO inJUre the government against witch 1t
is directed such attacks are pTejudicial
to the general interest and material pros
perlty Of the country. and are calculated
to injure the interests Of American citi-
zens and companies which have invested
many millions of capital in various enter
prises. agricultural business, and COM
mercial. in Guatemala.
