PAN-AMERlCA AND MEXICO

Aberdeen News-The Pan-American
congress, in session in Washington, is
confessedly embarrassed by the erup-
ton in Mexico at this time. The OBJ
ject of the Pan-American congress is
to create feeling of mutual good will
and trust between the United States
and the nations of Central and South
America. But the Latin American ma
tions, however orderly they may be
in their own home government, nat
urally are inclined to sympathize to
a certain extent with the Mexicans,
of the same blood, race and language
as themselves. This has tendency
to cause a GOODNESS to arise among
them in their attitude toward the
United States, as they foresee another
possible period of friction between
this country and Mexico-a feeling
that is entirely natural on their part
even if the sound common sense OF
their wiser statesmen and business
men does convince them that the Unit
ed States has most difficult problem
