BY FREDERICK ]. HAsK1N

Santa Fe. n. M, Aug. c7.-The re.
public OF Mexico is being quietly,
peacefully. rapidly colonized by Ger
mans.
This is the word brought back by a
traveller who has just returned. and
who has exceptional facilities for learn
inS the facts. Tho a native citizen of
tho United States he is of Spanish
blood. speaks and writes Spanish as
well as English. and has many friends
and relations in Mexico He Travelled
all over the republic seeking options
on land for American capitalists. He
talked to Mexicans OF all classes in
their own language and as one of their
own race. He got facts which arc not
accessible to reporters and politicians
in Mexico City.
What this man saw in Mexico was
a young country going thru phase
Of swift development thru COLOMBIA ton
and investment. While American pol
iticians and capitalists are trying to
formulate a policy toward Mexico. and
trying to educate the American people
tn accept that policy. Mexico herself
Ia becoming a different country. They
have thought of her as bankrupt and
starving. As matter of fact. she
is producing bumper crops and is SOL
vent They have thought of her as
a nation of half-starved Indians. As a
ihftla'i VI ih''s h''i 'i'fl 'niuS are
ing to her some OF the best blood in
Europe.
A very large part Of this blood Is
German. Young Germans OF good edu-
cation and with money in their pockets
are pouring into Mexico by the tens Of
thousands. Recently the Mexican Gov
ernnent. this man reports. sold great
tract Of land to 5000 young Germans.
Each OF these men has 40 years in
which to nay for his farm. Each of
them will found a family. Many Of
them-and this is very important
point-will marry native girls OF Span
ish blood
This German colony will form a great
block Of thrifty farmers. not isolated.
but bound to the rest of the populs-
tion by tics OF marriage. In the opin-
ion of the observer VIC are quoting.
these men will become As much part
of Mexico as any men in II. They will
support the Mexican Government. 10

ana the Mexican people. with whom
many of them will have intermarricd.
In addition to these Germans who
have bought a block of land. there
are numerous small groups and indi-
viduals from Germany coming into the
country in search OF farms. These
young Germans usually first obtain
employment on some OF the large cs-
fates for a year. They learn the Ian
guage and the country. Then they buy
farms.
Americans Poor Colonizcrs
some Americans are going into the
country and buying farms. too. it is
reported. but they are few compa ed
to the Germans and other Europeans.
Furthermore. the Americans form
small groups and keep to themselves.
They seldom intermarry with the Mex
leans. and often they do not even lea rn
the language. This man was surprised
to lind many Americans who hal been
IN Mexico for years and could not speak

that the government would hold tho

OHIO STATE TEAM
wins FROM MICHIGAN

The Ohio State Foot Ball team
swamped the University of Michigan
team at Ann Arbor last Saturday and
by so doing are on, their way to
championship.
The score was 14-0. The Buckeyes
outplayed the Wolverines at every
stage of the game. Some very
brilliant plays were made by the
Buckeye playres. Stuart made the
first touch down. 1t was after the
ball had been punted by Michigan
near the side line and had made a
big bound that Stuart used his head
and on dead run scooped up the ball
and raced for 81 yards for touch
down, he made a flying leap over one
of the Michigan players head landing
on his shoulder across the goal line,
1t was brilliant play and complete
| ly took the Wolverine players by
surprise. This set the Ohio State
rooters wild and the Michigan rooters
began to feel themselves slipping
and quite number of them left the
field before the game was half over.
| In the second half the Ohio State
team made several complete forward
passes and line plunges that took the
ball within a few feet of Michigan
goal line, the 9rd quarter ended and
when the 4th quarter started it just
took the Buckeyes 80 seconds to put
the ball across the goal.
The showing of the Wolverine
team was disappointment to the
spectators and by the time the last
quarter was we'll started the Michi-
gan rooters began to leave and by
the time the game, was finished there
were only very few left in the
stands.
The crowd was estimated at as 1000
and it was an ideal day.
