Mark Osmand Prentiss announced.
I'VE want to learn the truth about
Mexico and our citizens there. Our
intention Is to rip things open, let the
sunlight in. And indications are that
some very unpleasant things are going
to be disclosed, both for the Mexican
government and for private interests
operating there. III 1t is true that
American citizens are being deprived

Gated and their persons outraged by

planned that one member will devote
several hours each day to hearing
testimony.
.The clock is about to strike in
Mexico" Prentiss declared. ave have
learned from absolutely reliable
sources that large amounts of ammu-
milton, arms and war materials are
being imported from the East and
West: also that shipments are cross
ing the border despite the embargo.
The lull of the last four years has
been due entirely to the inability Of
the rival factions to secure guns and
munitions. With all the nations in the
world ovcrstockcd with fighting i'm
plcments. the Mexican outlet will not
be overlooked. Consequently the fire
works are scheduled to begin soon"
The committee, selected with the
greatest care from persons In whom
both the United States and Mexico
have confidence, will make their
findings known to the foreign rela-
tons committee of Congress and to
members of the House and Senate.
The State Department will also be
furnished with copies of testimony
given. I'VE are not trying to en-
barrass the administration in any
way" Prentiss stated. 1--WE hope to
develop the facts, to work in harmony
and cooperation with and to estab-
fish friendly relations with Mexico.
No member of the committee, so fur
rs we know, has single dollar in
vested In Mexico or represents In any
way any concern that has financial In

Census
ToBe Taken Here

The members of the First Metho-
dist Church of Bogalusa have plans
on foot to take a complete religious
census of Bogalusa. The work will
be begun next week and the first
section to be covered will be North
east Bogalusa. The object of this
census is twofold. At first the pas
tor, Rev. A. ]. Gearheard, desires to
interest as many as possible in the
revival meeting that will be conduct
ed the latter part of September, and
then he desires to have names and
addresses of members and friends of
the church so that he may keep them
posted as to the progress of plans for
the new church.
The new church issue will be re-
vived with the revival meeting. In
fact the trustees now are examining
the floor plans and it is expected
that full plans will be completed and
adopted so that work on the struc-
ture may be begun before January l..
