PASSPORT taking is among the most con
l. temptible Of the various impositions
practiced upon gullible emigrants in Europe.
Of late the abuse has become so aggravated
that the American consul reports that nearly
every third class passenger intending to sail
for America from Cherbourg is supplied with
defective papers. a well organized coun

with reason.
The record Of dcceptions and trickery in
the European exodus is long and pitiful in
the extreme. Credulous and helpless thou

The passport fraud is comparatively new

VlvlANrS DELICATE ROLE

FTNHE French sense OF personal values Is
l. keenly expressed in the choice of the
able envoy extraordinary who landed in New
York yesterday. Iofrc was the prime pic
torial and sentimental asset Of the mission
sent to this country from the Quai dOrsay
in 1917, but upon Rene Niviani fell the
delicate task Of interpreting American opn-
ion and appraisiug UNUSUAL conditions.
The role Of this eminent statesman today
is no less exacting The situation four years
ago, though tense and emotional, was at
least defnable. The cmbarrasSmCnts of the
present time are formlcss, and as such all
the more difficult to combat.
Nevertheless il his pcrspicaclty IS un.
diminished, VI. Niviani will soon learn that
the November election was by no means a
conclusive protest against American CO.
operation in world affairs. There are many
thousands of Americans who refuse to be-
lleve that the signatures OF the American
delegates on the Treaty of Versailles will
not in the end hc officially indorsed or that
the League of Nations, IN its broad outlines,
is moribund
The French envoy will star1 frankly with
an interview with Mr.. Harding, arranged
for tomorrow. But oven II presidential

THE MEXICAN REVIVAL

D DErORTS from Mexico carry the graft
~ flying information that the problem in
that country is Solving itself" Since the
inauguration Of President Obrcgon the eco
uomic and industrial situation has vastly
improved. Bandtry is virtually nonexistent.
Villa is playing the Ciucinuatus role on his
farm. Tamora is dead. Bonilla holds out,
but with few followers.
The banking and credits systems have been
stabilized and a most wholesome reform in
the currency has been established providing
for the withdrawal or destruction of the
worthless paper money with which the coun-
try was flooded Indeed. Mexican money
now ranks among the best in Latin America.
Railway service is fast being restored to
normal conditions. and Mexican and North
American rolling stock under new agree
mcnt, is being interchangcd on terms that
are no longer hazardous.
The evidences of invigorating self help
in Mexico do not dispose of tanglc Of
vcYed questions outstanding between that
nation and the United States. Before lcav-
ing Office Mr.. Colby suggested to President
Obregon the formation of joint commission
to consider these disputes. Mexico has not
yet acceded to the request, and it is chiefly
on this account. it is said, that our recog-
milton of the new Mexican Government has
been delayed.
The hesitation Of the United States cannot
be called unreasonable. Claims arising from
the old disorders do not settle themselves
President Obregon will perform n valuable
service TO continental American solidarity

States in n sincere effort to close one Of
the most deplorable chapters in the history
