As before stated the result of thu

acter that from II a policy for tn
future handling Of Mexico can be-
formulated. This can only be done
by recognizing as facts certain
things which we know Ia be facts
hut which have always been IL

the FIRST place the racial and cdu-
c%ational delinqucncies Of the vast
majority Of the Mexican people
must Ne taken into consideration
and the fact admitted that a prac-
teal and not an ideal form Of gov
crnmcnt Is the only Kind under
which they a live at the present

eminent must recognize that the in
terests Of foreign capital IN Mexico
and the interests of the Mexican
people themselves r Identical.
Until foreign capital Is again inter-

make any progress along industrial
lines. and until progress Is nude
industrially the Mexican people
themselves will be- not only stand
ing still but will be actually slip
