SATURDAY. APRIL 8, 1918

John Il. McManus, q Chicago man,
was killed by Zapata soldiers in the
City of Mexico recently, and the jim
go press has raised fresh howl
against the administration because of
the occurrence. McManus was epgag-
ed in the dairy business, and like
many other American citizens whose
lust for gold was strong he stayed in
that country in spite Of the warnings
of this government that If he remain
ed there it was at his own risk. A
few weeks before he WAS killed Nc
Manus wrote to his sister In Chicago
that he was cleaning up $1,000 a
month and would soon have enough
to make a permanent Investment In
his own country. He also told Ofkill-
ing three Zapata soldiers who came
to his place to demand supplies. The
United States cannot afford to sacri-
flee thousands of its promising young
men to protect the lives Of money
grabbers from this country who are
staying in Mexico to enrich them
selves, and who are fully aware OF
the danger they run.-Lamar Sparks.
