When Mexico Opens Up"

is not too early for FL Paso firms to begin making ready
for increased business with Mexico "Just wait unit
Mexico opens up has been favorte expression here for
long time. The day is at hand
The armstiee having put a practical end the war
declaration Of peace will be forthcoming in the fu
ture Negotiations must be undertaken within 80 days Of
the signing Of the armstce and for possible
hagging Details they viii be largely matter of form
The principal peace demands embodied in the srmsticS
conditions.
The declaration of peace will be followed by the lifting
OF the embargo exports and imports which has kept
minimum the business which FL Pasoans could conduct
mexico or with residents of Mexico How soon the removal
Of the embargo will be effected after peace comes is not
certain The government has announced its intention
retain the embargo in order to keep stabilized the
portaon Of essential supplies to Europe But that all
sea traffic and should not interfere with railroad Transport
taton Of materials into and out of Mexico. While the
government viii therefore undoubtedly maintain general
embargo as long as IS deemed necessary, 1t may well be
that the embargo between the United States Mex
leo may be lifted quickly at least relating movements
by raj Representations to Washington in favor of such
action as speedily possible might help.
No announcement has yet regarding the plans for
removal Of the blacklist That of much interest here
for some of the big firms and many small ones with
which FL Paso firms used to do business, the pro-
scbed list Whether not business relations will be
sumed IS for individual determination 1t probable the
United States government viii push any policy of after
war economic warfare by forbdding transactions with
Germans President Wilson has heretofore looked with
favor such policy. In the absence official dec
laraton is assumed that the blacklist will be done away
with and FL Pasoans VIII be free to trade with not to
trade with German individuals and firms with pro-
Germans of other nationality their conscences may die

Everyone who has faith IN FL Paso and that includes
all FL Pasoans is confident that border business bigger
and better than known in the prosperous times
IS to be had the embargo is lifted Mexico is
tranquil except IN few isolated localities and i'm

in spite of the fact that Mexico is still handicapped
