CITY OF MEXICO Aug. 21-A group deputies in the fe

"Upon orders from Great Britain
the Egyptian commissioners were not
allowed to send representatives to the
United States; upon orders from the
government of Great Britain the COM
missioners sent by Egypt are kept in
Paris, virtually suffering imprison-
ment."
Further Mr.. Folk charged that ar
rest of the Egyptian commission at
Malta, by order of the British gov
ernment, when that commission was
en- route to the Peace Conference,
caused the recent revolt in Egypt.
Mr.. Folk makes the argument that
the people of Egypt have entertain
ed a faith that the principle OF self
determination which has been so
strongly set forth for Poles, Czecho-
Sloyaks, and other subject countries
The daily morning oasis., 1919-08-22

in Europe might be extended to
Egypt; and their Legislative As
sembly sent the commission now fout-
ed to the Paris Conference to present
that faith; but they have been pro-
hibited doing so under orders from
Downing Street; and when the COM
mission would visit the United States,
orders emanating from the same
source block their desires.
Whether Mr.. Folk can accomplish
anything for Egypt and the
Egyptians is a matter that the future
will decide. Whether he can induce
the American people or the Ameri-
can government to mix into the mess
is hardly probable. They would not
take up cudgels for Ireland with
hundreds of thousands of Irish voters
clamoring for it. There are very few
Egyptians in America who are voters.

BY EUGENIo VERA.

In the mail just arrived from
the United States, ] received a
lelip from an American newspaper.
The clip is an article written by
a certain L. L. NJ. in the form of
a neurology on the late Theodore
Roosevelt. Among other things,
the author says: at makes it
clear what a really great states
man Roosevelt was. 1t was he
who made possible the Panama
canal, which Latin-America could
not have built in thousand
years. He did not indulge in any
dream sentiment about the rights
of bandits to rule themselves in
their own bloody way, but promp-
tly pushed them aside like traffic
policeman and started things.
With 1870 of Colombians litter
ate, what else could be expected? :?
The Anglo-Saxon is what he is to-
day because of a superior spirit
ual and intellectual development,
and the Latins are what they are
because of lack of those ideals
of justice and right which would
character toward that spiritual
understanding which has made the
United States and the great self
governing colonies of Great Bri-
tain the haven of the oppressed of
the wide world. 1t was colonel
Roosevelt's trait to see the facts
as they were and not to indulge
in idle dreames about condition
that might, but did not exist.
Thus far the article in question.
In answer to the above statements,
it could be said that the author of
the article above referred to-,
proves himself to be one OF the
very many Anglo-Saxons whose
eyes are, unfortunately, for them
and for us, covered with the heavy
veil of bitter prejudice against
Latin-Americans, veil that blinds
a considerable number of them,
preventing them from knowing
and and understanding us.
If L. e. NJ, the author of said
article, were a broad-minded and
far-sighted American, he would
not express himself in the. way
ne does.
But quotation from an article
of Mr.. Roosevelt himself will
answer L. e. Ms statements. If
we mistake not, the Colonel wrote
in The Outlook of December 90,
1913, as follows: .Fortunately,

TO be wished that young Ameri-
cans W. wonld. visit their neighbors

Does L. E. NJ. believe, that
Roosevelt suggested to the young
Americans to visit South America
in order that they may take les
sons on vandalism and follow our
bloody ways?
President Wilson in his speech
in Mobile, Alabama, in 1913, said
that 'the dignity. the courage,
the self-possession, the respect,
and the achievements of the South
American states, deserve nothing
but the admiration and the APP
plause of the world"
Does l.. e. NJ. think, that Mr.
Wilson means that the world
should admire and applaud our
savagery and outlawry?
No. What those two distin-
guished men mean is that you
Anglo-Saxons have as much to
learn and profit from our intellec-
tuaI refinament, our artistical
temperament, and our poetical
imagination, as we Latin-Amer-
leans have to profit and learn
from your high ideas, your
practical ways and your great
amount of common sense.
5 L. +. NJ. forgets, or perhaps
never knew, that the Latin Amer
lean countries have a civilization
if centuries, whose people are
endowed with great mentality,
and are ardent lovers of progress,
science and arts, just as much as
the people of the United States
itself. L. e. NJ, perhaps was
never aware of the fact that six
universities were founded in Latin
America before there was one, in
what is today the United States.
The Universities of Mexico and

Idoya (Argentine)' in 1913; that of
Sucre, in 1923, while, the uniyer-
Isity of Harvard, the oldest one
in the United States, was not
founded until 1886.

ish a democratic monarchy fash
ioned after that Of Great Britain.
Senator France of Maryland
declared that he United States had
no more right to invade Russia
than had Germany to invade Bel
gium.
Hitchcock Defends Wilson'S
Course.
Senator Hitchcock opened the
debate by saying that the Admi-
nistration had been citicised, first,
because it did not yield to the
urgent desire of Great Britain and
France to enter Russia with a
large force, to establish or re-estab-
lish, an eastern front against Ger
many, and later because it had
sent soldiers into Russia.
"These attacks, coming from
directly opposite directions, indi-
cate the embarrassment that con-
fronted President Wilson in
deciding what policy to adopt"
said the Nebraska Senator.
The Lelline- -Trotzky Govern
ment, he went on to say, was far
more prominent that any other in
Russia because it was in the great
centre and held Petrograd, the
capital, and Moscow, the ancient
city Of Russia, and some of the
other industrial centres, and be
cause it was recognized by Ger
many, the only nation which has
El Imparcial. (San Juan, P.R.) 1918-197?, 1919-01-20

recognized it as a national Govern
ment. "
Referring to Senator LaFollette' s
statement in the Senate a few days
ago that the Bolshevist Govern
ment was not pro-German, Senator
Hitchcock continued:
II do not see how that can be
believed by any one who has read
the history of the last year. Lenine
and Trotzky go into Russia by the
grace, Of Germany. There is very
substantial reason for believing
and considerable evidency to prove
that Lenine and Trozky operated
with German credit. Certainly in
everything that they have done they
have carried out the will of Ger
many.
''They signed with Germany a
treaty which practically gave Ger
many everything she asked for,
including large sum of money
which they had already begun to
send to Germany, when the nations
fighting Germany put a stop to if.
They established in Petrograd a
German Ambassador, and Russian
and other travellers who have come
to this country from Russia have
told me that he rules virtually as
King in Petrograd.

Trozky Government had driven

land, and he is in Jail.
"To say under those circuntan-

Government in Russia or that il
is not pro-German seems to me to
be going entirely foo far
