Plentifully supplied with money
he can afford to spend generously
to save his enterprises from the
scrap heap. He does not dare to
fail to spend. His henehmen are
finding helpers in New Mexico, as
elsewhere Some OF them are serv-
ing through sheer stupidity, not re-
alizing the significance OF what they
are doing; others have axes to grind,
while a few are not unmindful OF
the possibility of reward OF one kind
or another.
A few of the are car
ring the advertisements which partly
defend Hearst and his publications
and partly make a counter attack
on the persons and organizations
which have shown the Hearst treach-
r to America. The advertisements
were refused by many of the papers
The plea to be used in New Mexico
is that the campaign against Hearst
is purely a matter OF politics. Since
the majority of the New Mexico
Council OF Defense is composed OF
Republicans, and since Hearst is
thought to be a Democrat, 1t was
believed that a large number of the
simple minded would fall" for the
game. That belief was wrong on
two counts; New Mexico does not
have large numbers OF simple mind
ed, to begin with; and of the simple
minded, only a few have fallen.
The New Mexico Council of De.
tense is not Republican. but Amer
lean. Governor Lindsey - a kepub-
lican; Attorney General Patton is a
Democrat; but above his political at
filiations zach one of these New
Mexicans puts his allegiance to
America. Both are with the Council
in the campaign against Hearst. An
other belief founded in error is that
Hearst is a Democrat. Tho only
thing in the world that Hearst stands
for is Hearst. He has no other in
terest or concern.
However, let It be that
the New Mexico Council is RePub-
lican. Whatever its political faith,
it is fighting an enemy to the Unit
ed States-fighting a man who, with
influences of almost incredible power
has worked night and day to block
the war plans of the Administration.
The Administration 10 Democratic.
But Il is an American Administra-
ton, it you please. And as an Ameri
can Administration it is receiving all
the support and protection that the
New Mexico Council has to offer.
Hearst used cartoons and editorials
deter people from subscribing to
the First Liberty Loan; to keep the
Administration from sending ships
