BLAME PSYCHOLOGY
Inhabitants of Latin American Re
public Dislike Being Treated
With Disdain That Americans
Give Them, Hence The Hearty
Hatred.

Mexico City, Jan. 25-Ameri-
cans are today the "best-hated"
foreigners in Mexico.
Observers who have spent some
time in this country agree that
this is fact,
Americans are tolerated, but
deep in the hearts of many Mex
cans lies a canker worm against
the "men' from the north"
Why?
The most important reasons,
howcver, are that we do not as
people understand Latin-Amer-
lean psychology; that we treat
the Mexican with an air of SUI
periority; thai We consider the
Mexican as on 4 lower mental
plane; that our government APP
parently permits more or less plot
ting against Mexican governments
in The United States; that We
talk too much ard lastly, proba-
bly, greater than all the rest
because of the class Of Ameri-
cans that is to be found in this
city.
Mexicans have their faults, bat
that is more or less besides the
subject.
One Mexican offered the sug-
gestion to me that an important
reason was that 1--WE rub the ma
tional pride of the Mexicans the
wrong way Another high off

One government official he"t

their whole energies on fake val

pie and in the struggle for the
acquisition of things they lose the
