Common Sense About
Mexican Oil Lands

The United States has been re-
ceiving some mighty fine toma-
toes raised by Mexican peon labor
before American tomatoes were
ripe.
Mexican peon labor is largely
employed in our country to make
the bee: sugar crops, to work in
mines and smelters and ore crush
ers.
Over a half a million Mexican
laborers are employed on railroads
and ranches, and in industries Of
our country and no harm is done.
We read a great deal about the
Mexican poems being dispossessed
of their homes through great grants
of lands to Americans and others.
These grants have been develo-
ped by oil companies, mining and
smelling companies, live stock and
cotton and rubber plantations.
The Mexican peon has been given
employment in his own country
by American capital and who can
honestly say any great harm was
done?
Eastern newspapers keep senti-
mentalizing about the Mexican
peon being made homeless by
American corporations and ex-
plotted by capital
If two blades of grass were made
to grow for one, if steady work
were given in place of none, if
dollars were created out of dor
mant resources, who has been
harmed?
If people that prefer cock
fighting, bull fights, gambling and
banditing to honest industry are
gradually taught habits of indus
try and converted into wage ear
ners, they are on the high road to
becoming useful self.supporting
citizens.
That is the commensense of all
the socialistic talk about exploit
ing Mexico with American capital.
