Why do the Mexcans hate us? Primarily because our characteris-

We despSe the Mexicans because they differ from us; they hate us be-
cause We differ from them.
Quantities OF adventures have gone there to SHOW them how TO

o the country is pure folly. No other foreigners make that attempt
The Germans, Brench and Italians adapt themselves to the conditions
OF the country.
The Mexicans have had small reason Ito admire or official represent
tatives among them. Our consular service the world has been a
laughing stock; particularly has ii been a disgrace in Mexico. One O
suar officer had to have the superintendent OF schools in his W town
write his letter OF acceptance when his appointment came from Washing

The Mexicans hate us because We have deprived them OF territory
The loss of Texas was a serious blow, and they have always ascrbed
it to us. We took nor than hall their territory as a result Of the N
just "a OF 1S7. We wanted land-and we took it. Mexico has OF
forgotten-and will not forget.
The idea prevails throughout the republic that we have our yes on

heartily is that they feel that W e have exploited them and their coun-
try. Everywhere they find American capital owning their sources OF
wealth. Blndly, they feel that they have been defrauded.
This is how is John Kenneth Turner says in his book on Bar
barous Mexico" every Mexican farm is a millionaire farm, and why 1t
has been sc easy for such Americans as William Randolph Hearst, Far-
rison Gray Otis, the Rockefelers, the Guggenheims and Others, each to
have obtained possession OF millions OF Mexican acres"
The Mexicans know that they have been robbed. They feel the hope
