BORDER PROBE E
 HELD UP BY MEXICO
AMERlcANs ARE PREVENTED FROM TELLING COMMITTEE
 OF TRUE CONDITIONS.
ARE AFRAID TO TESTIFY
Feeling Among Business Men of Bor. der That They Should Not Be Called Upon To Jeopardize
 Their Business.

Washington. - Orders issued by the Mexican government that Ameri- cans who testify before the congres. sional committees Investigating the Mexican situation shall not enter Mex. ico have prevented business men in towns along the international border from giving valuablei information, ac- cording to Senator Fall, Republican of New Mexico. chairman of the subcom- mittee now holding hearings on the border.
 In letter to Francis J. Kearful, at torney for the subcommittee, Senator Fall said that witnesses desired at Douglas, Nogales and other Arizona cities would not appear before the committee because they had business in Mexico and were afraid to testify
 "A deplorable state of affairs exists at Nogales and Douglass the letter said. At Nogales, particularly, all business is done with Mexico that was formerly done by shipping along the west coast, and the business men are afraid to testify because of the order of the Mexican government that they should not, after testifying, go into Mexican territory, and because the administration has done nothing, so far as they know, except to ac- quiesce in such an order"
 Declaring there was a general feel ing among business men in American towns along the border that they should not be called upon to jeopardize their business and possibly the safety of their employees by testifying be- fore the subcommittee unless given definite assurance of protection by the United States government, the latter said that among certain people the presidents note to the Senate to the effect that Congress had no jur;sd1c- ton in foreign affairs is being urged as an excuse for their lack of patriot ism in giving facts as they know them, even privately, to the committee"
 Senator Fall said that through the influence of banks and commercial companies having profitable business in Mexico, American legal holidays have not been observed inn any Unit cd States towns along the border al though Mexican holidays are kept re- ligiously.
