A MANLY ATTITUDE

l. Is impossible not TO admire tho
stand taken by Provisional President De
La Huerta OF Mexio. on the question OF
the recognition OF his government by for
egn nations. He makes Il very plain
that Mexico is not suppi!cating foreign
recognition on hum!iiatirg terms. and
tina; Mexico. having herself set up high
moral standards, expects to be treated
in a respectful manner.
Apparently Mexico IS right now In the
frame of mind OF a man who has hon
estly determined 10 lead better life.
Justice and respectful consideration Will
help to place such 4 man or such IL nation
on a permanently higher plane. while
Illuminating insults or injustice Will en-
gender bitterness. hate and hopeless
ness.
The United States. as MeXico's nearest
and most powerful neighbor, should be
quick to recognize this new condition
and 10 adopt L helpful policy. Partcu'
larry should "Holier than thou" attt-
tude be absent in our dealings with our
sister republic.
