WILSON'S POLICY MAKE
SOUTH AMERICANS FRIENDLY
RY CHAS- p STEMAnT

by CHAS. p. STEWART,
OJniteI Press Staff CorrespondenD
Hucnos Aires, March . Recent
noas dispatches from the Uni.
ted States indicating that President
Wilson's forebearing policy toward
Mexico was adopted to some extent
in Difference to South American pub.
Die opinion have created an excellent
impression in the southern republic.
For the fhst time since the Mexican
situation became acute the admission
is being made here that the United
States government have been very
patient under severe provocation.
Whether this view would still be held
in the event OF fresh threats Of in
teryention in Mexico is doubtful. II
is distinct charge, however, from the
hitherto generally expressed opinion
that North American mistakes anC
deliberate mischiefmaking were re
sponsible for all the Mexican trouble,
of the past few years.
That their wishes would be taken
