THE MEXICAN PROBLEM


The plain citizen has no determin-
ing voice on the issue Of war or
peace.
For more than so wears money has
been powerful enough TO force war
upon any country at any time The
student of world politics will find
that practically all modern wars have
been dictated by great financial in
terests
The people of the United States do
not want war with Mexico. The
Mexican people do not want war with
us. And both president Wilson and
Carran2a have manifestly done
everything in their power to avert
war.
What is if. then. that menaces the
peace of these neighhorine countries2
It dates far hack of the Columbus
raid That outrage upon the resi-
dents of one of our border towns was
| the logical outcome of conditions for
which the Mexican people we're in no
wise resnonsible Worse than that

The Call for More Troops.

1t is not extraordinary that Gen. Fun
ston should have called on the War
Department for additional troops for
use in Mexico or on the border, and his
requisition should not be viewed as a
necessarily alarming indication. OBJ
viously the pursuit of Villa is not GO
ing 10 be easy. He has got start and
is now in the hills, and even with the
Carranza forces actively at work round
ing him up from the south and Gen.
Pershing's column pushing in from the
north, his advantage of position is such
that he may keep his opponents guess
ing and maneuvering for long time.
Gen. Pershing's position is difficult.
Having no assured base of supplies in
Mexico he must depend upon base on
this side of the border, and it is neces-
sary to maintain protection for this line
of communication. Even though it may
take no more than 1000 men in the
field of actual operations to accomplish
the appointed task, 10000 may be nee
essary, or even 10000, for guard duty
on the border and along the line over
which Pershing's supplies must 60.
Thus far there has been no sign Of

the part of Carranza and his military
leaders to cooperate in the capture of
Villa. This is a gratifying development
for which the United States government
is sincerely thankful. 1t is immaterial
to this country whether Villa is captured
by Carranzistas or by the American
troops, so long as he is caught and
punished as his crimes warrant. If Car
rama can. through his own forces, even
with the United States troops acting as
an element of pressure to drive Villa
into his hands, take the bandit himself.
he will have done more to establish him
self at the head of the Mexican gov
ernment than anything else that has
been accomplished thus far. His dan
ger, which is fully recognized here. lies
in the possibility of a suspicion among
the Mexican people that he is playing
into the hand of the United States
and that the motives of this country
are sinister
