Uncle Harry Talks
About Mexican Affairs

The other night you told us about
recent developments In Germany. but
there is another country that wish
you would talk to us about this
evening" said Joe.
'gWel. which one is It tonight?"
asked Uncle Harry.
"Mexico.' replied Joe. you have
talked to us several times about
Mexico. but you haven't said any
thing lately about the country just
south Of the United States"
Affairs in Mexico, and relations
between the Mexican government
and American interests i'm that coun-

Harry. President Ohregon, accord

of the problems that have caused

I "The old controversy between the
/ Mexican government and the Ameri-

recent reports, been az least partly
settled. Mexican officials have also
been holding meetings with foreign

settlement OF the financial problems
OF the nation that developed out OF
the ten years and more OF revolu-
tions and other disturbances.
"Our own government has not yet
officially recognized the present

recognition by the United States and
the other nations will follow in due

Recent visitors 10 Mexico have
reported that conditions generally
are better than they have been In a

either been killed or have come TO

SENATOR BALL
AGAINST BLOCS
Opposed TO Class Legisla-
tion of Any Kind, He
Asserts
FEARS INJURY TO
OTHER INDUSTRIES
snecIal o The EvenIng Iournal.

Special 70 The Evening Journal.
WASHINGTON. d. C.. Oct. IA
Government by blocs was declar-
ed by Senator Ball today TO be any
thing but desirable. He said he
feared the agricultural bloc in the
Senate would use all its power 10
effect the defeat OF the dye embargo
which will undoubtedly be incor-
porated in the tariff bill when il is
reported by the finance committee.
This schedule was defeated by the
House but il is believed that II the
Senate restores it the other branch
OF Congress will acquiesce.
"The Farm bloc. composed Of able
and conscientious Senators, does not
appear 10 appreciate the tremen-
dous Importance OF legislation pre-
venting the flooding Of American
markets with foreign dyes said
senator Ball. Senators who sup
port that schedule are thouhtlessly
accused Of giving an advantage TO
some vested interests.
1T must not he forgotten. how
ever that Germany at one time came
near winning the war because Of her
control of essential chemicals We
must in this country build up our
chemical industry so that we can
be fully protected in times Of peace,
as well as in war. There is no way
to effect this except by a temporary
embargo lasting Ions enoughe 20
make sure that the chemical indus
Try IN this country is well and firmly
established
II agree with the President that
control Of legislation by blocs is
dangerous. it is essential TO the
healthy growth Of democratic gov
ernment that two strong parties
with differing views shall function.
But when you divide Congress up
Into blocs party government is liable
to disappear leaving in its place a
number Of groups"
Senator Ball said he was opposed
70 class legislation Of any kind and
no element should be allowed to
obtain such strength in Congress as
10 be able 10 control either branch.
Agricultural announcement is de-
sirabie because the farmer produces
indispensable commodities. Senator
Bail declared. but when legislation is
proposed it should be shown that IL
is IN the general interest.
mo wholesome thinking American
will deny that the greatest Of all
American industries is entitled 10 the
utmost consideration. but we should
all remember. that in legislatinE in
the interests Of agriculture. the good
OF all the people is AZ stake" said
Senator Ball. ''No intelligent farmer
would want any other great industry
10 be injured. when legislating We
must consider the people and in
dustry as whole and not as sep
arate units"
