bly, there has not been time in the
history of Mexico, even among the
days when the revolution was seen by
Diaz and his advisers to be gaining
ground when such high value has
been put on public opinion in the
United States concerning all things
Mexican by the leading men of the
country as it is today. Financiers
and public men are jealousy inter-
ested in every hit of information,
whether relating to the state OF order
throughout the republic or the poll
cies to be pursued by the coming
giyernment, that is printed in the
United States.
The one thing to be maintained,
t,.ey frankly admit, is the standing
of the country in the eyes of the
Americans, and that means Ameri-
cans who have money which might
be used for the development of the
immense resources of Mexico.
: This country is almost altogether
dependent on foreign capital for the
exploitation of it's mines, its oil fields
and manufacturing industries. The
capital of Mexico would go but a
short distance; the field is too big. It
can be readily seen, therefore that
any menace to foreign capital is re-
garded as a danger to the state. One
thing can be stated as an axiom:
They want American dollars here and
they want them in big lnstallments.
Want Dollars, Pounds or Francs.
And men who are interested in the
material progress of the country, both
those who are closely identified with
Madero party and those who have
leanings toward the old regime on
account of past favors, are united in
tie desire to have Mexico's invita-.
ton to the outlander dollars, pounds,
francs spread broadcast.
The fear that confronts the Mexi-
can financial world is that the money
ed east of the United States will in

foreign investments and an effort to
discourage the goledn in vasion of the
north. l can conscientiously accede
to the generally expressed desire OF
the men of various shades of political
opinion by declaring that Mexico has
her arms outstreched, prepared to
give friendly embrace to every legiti
mate investment that. comes this way
Just why the Mexican financiers and
officials should be afraid that the
United States will get an idea that
they do not want Aferican money,
