PRESIDENT UNDER
CARRANZA SPELL,
WITNESS ASSERTS
"IfU. S. Government Ceased to
Support Mexican Head He
Wouldn't Last 80 Days"

San Antonio, Jan. 15.-Propa.-
gandist of bolshevism have spread
their doctrine of radicalism from
Sonora to the Isthmus of Tehuan-
tepec within a year, the senate COM
mittee investigating the Mexican
situation was advised by an Amer
ican salesman. The witness was
head in executive session in order
that he might be guarded to that
extent against possible reprisals by
Mexicans. He begged that his
name not be used because he ex-
poets to return to Mexico.
Carranza, when forced to choose
between two small armies in the
south, one led by the federal COM
mander and the other known as the
bolshevik force, declared in favor
of the latter, he assured the COM
mittee. Striking laboring men in
other districts, he said, were frank
in their declaration of adherence
to the radical cause and almost ev-
erywhere he went he found undis-
guised evidence of the success Of
the extremist agitators.
Averse to Hearing Facts.
I have told the American con-
suls in Mexico about the condition,
he testified, but l could always
note that they were averse to hear
ing the facts, and especially where
they reflected unfavorably upon
the Mexican government. They
would rather converse with some
fellow who knew nothing about
Mexican conditions"
After commenting that "Mr.
Wilson seemed to be hynotized by
Mr.. Carranza" he added:
IF the American government
ceased to support him he would not
last 80 days. The merchants and
businessmen of Mexico want law
and order, but they cannot hope
for such while the bolshevik gang
is upheld by the American govern
ment."
Farmers From Nebraska.
Mathew Warner, a veteran of the
civil war, of San Antonio, gave the
history of Atascador colony which
he founded during the rule of Por-
firio Diaz, near Tampico. 1t was
peopled by farmers from Nebraska,
Iowa and Texas. A German
and one American family remain
on the property. His account includ-
ed reference to the murder of A.
Burt, and the serious injury of his
father by Mexicans. 1t was on that
property that the daughters of
Matthew Gourd were attacked by
who first roped their
father in such a position he might
witness their acts.
