sire of our government to observe its
obligations in the strictest possible
manner; what we offer is help. No
government can detect and stop all
smuggling. 1t would not be possible
to engage enough men in that work.
Rum smuggling is proof of the truth
of my statement.
1--WE shall place in the hands Of the
proper government officials all in
formation received and we do not
want information for any other pur-
pose.
1--WE have watched the course of
events in Mexico throughout the
course of the revolutionary movement
which began with the uprising against
Diaz resulting in his overthrow.
Gradually but surely the strength of
the cause of human freedom and de-
mocracy has grown. Gradually it has
organized its forces. Gradually con-
structive craftsmanship has been de-
veloped. The people have established
certain rights. They have, to large
degree thrown off the yoke. Under
Diaz there was slavery, for the peon-
age system was nothing less. Today
there is freedom.
eve have seen a great trade union
movement grow and establish itself,
bringing more freedom to the people,
raising their standards of life and
living, and best of all, giving them
hope and inspiration.
'The avowed purpose of the rebel
de la Huerta, tool of reaction, is to
crush the labor movement, to enforce
compulsory labor by denying the right
of workment to leave their work, to
give back the public land to great
concessionaires, to set Mexico back
decade or more, into darkness.
obregon Government
Mexico, by the expression of her
will to be free, has come to deserve
better fate and, am confident, she
knows how to work out her destiny.
Under President Obregon she has had
peace, her farmers have titled their
soil and raised crops, the wage earn
ers have been at work, earning wages,
living peacefully, educating their
children. Mexico never before saw
such time of peace, freedom and
progress.
"The government of President Obre-
gon is a government of law, having
its authority in the freely given suf-
frage of the people. 1t has won the
confidence and recognition of our
American government. The de la
Huerta rebellion would destroy all
that has been achieved. The action
of de La Huerta rebellion in shooting
trade union presidents as their first
act in practically every city of i'm
portance in which they have operated
is an unimpeachable indication of the |
character and purpose of that despic-
able movement.
"If American trade unionists, abid- |
ing by the laws of their own country, !
can serve to support the cause that
has the backing of the organized labor
movement in Mexico, that is found
ed upon the ideals and principles of |
freedom and democracy, they will so
serve. 1t has been our proud privi- |
lege to have given much service to
that cause in the past. We support |
with all our strength the cause that
is now menaced by the violence of un-
principled reaction in Mexico.

Rainey day rules for the protec-

Americas grammar schools were
announced today by Supt. J. +.
Mathis. These contemplate the
keeping open of the First, Second
and Third grade classes on incle-
ment day until the usual hour for
dismissal of students attending the
higher grades so that parents may
call and secure all of their chill
dren conveyances at the same
hour. Heretofore it has been the
custom to dismiss the lower class
es at an earlier hour, entailing two
trips on parents who called for
their children in cars and other
conveyance ON rainy days. The
change in rules has been adopted
as a convenience to the parents,
