women of the peon class, they are
subjected to terrible abuse at the
hands Of their husbands or male rela-

"Ar around Mexico City for miles
you see nothing except the hacienda
surrounded by fields OF maguey, the
plant from which the Mexicans make
pulque, a drink which produces much
the same effect as opium, and on al
most every street corner in the city
is a Government drinking shop.

81 heard bitter complaints against
the Government for keeping these
places open at night. the result being
that laborers. after receiving their
pay, often spend 1t all for pulque and
have nothing left to take home to
their families. Then the women must
work.
"On these haciendas the poems are
driven to their work by slave drivers
with whips and guns. l understand
all the laborers are paid something
the wages running from rs to 80 cents
day, but they are driven hard and
at times brutality beaten.
