Question OF State Right
To Make Man Protect His
Own Life Up To Court

DENVER, Colo, March The
question Of whether the state has 81
right to force a man against his will
to take precaution for the protection
of his own life was carried to the
state supreme court today in an APP
peal filed IN the case of Fred Sevcik
versus James Dalrymp1e, state coal
mine inspector. In this case, Judge
Conforth Of the district court of El
Paso county ruled that the state law
requiring coal mines to have certi-
fled foreman and ventilation fans was
unreasonable and unconstitutional.
Sevcill operated a small oneman
mine in El Paso county, and under
the provision Of the law requiring u
certified foreman and ventilation
fans, Dalrymple closed the mine on
January 23 of this year. Sevcik then
applied to the district court for an
Injunction to restrain Dalrymple from
further interference with his mine
operations, and won his case in the
lower court.
In two similar cases, one in an
other section of the El Paso country
district court, and another in Mon
trose country, the court held in favor
of Dalrymple.

INTERESTING TALK
ON MEXICO FOREIGN
TRADE SITUATION

Believing that the following ad-
dress on the Mexican foreign trade
situation will be of interest to the
residents of this section, Juan Mar
SHALL Mexican consul here, has sub
mitted it to the local chamber of
commerce for publication.
The talk was given at the fourth
annual convention of the Pacific
foreign trade council held at San
Francisco on March 4, 1926, by B. A,
Alrnada, assistant commercial attache
to the Mexican embassy in washing
ton, d. G.
The Mexican official stated:
"The Importance Of the Mexican
foreign trade with this country may
be easily understood, when carefully
analysed, for instance:
''On the American continent, south
of the United States, from the Rio
Grande to the extreme southern part
of South America, twenty Latin
American republics are actively en-
gagged in commercial interchange with
this country and Mexico has had the
lead in total trade volume; the rank
is as follows: Mexico, Brazil, Ar
gentine, Chile, Colombia, Peru and 50
forth. The total trade between the
five republics of Central America and
the United States is only one-third
Of the trade between Mexico and this
country.
Examining the foreign trade of
California and other states of the
Pacific, Mexico has a secondary place
compared with England Japan, China
and a few more countries, but tho

trade that is being done with these
nations is not so attractive for the
majority of the exporters and i'm,
porters as the Mexican trade is for
several reasons. First Of all, the
consideration that Mexico buys prac-
tically manufactured products of
every description and the number of
commercial firms participating in
the export trade may be counted in
large numbers. In San Francisco
alone, last year, aobut one hundred
concerns exported to Mexico $S,069,-
75182 worth of merchandise in 10,N
$50 shipments by boat and railroad.
The same day that big packing
house, sent a carload of canned goods
a modest nursery made shipment
of three or four hundred pounds of
tomato or alfalfa seed If we ex,
anime one Of those commodity lists
prepared by the department of. COM
merce in Washington, in reference to
Mexico, we can find that every let
ter of the alphabet is represented
and some of the letters have large
representation; that is to say only
under letter &C. we imported from
this country last year crackers, cot
ton thread, cotton goods, cotton cord
cordage, copper manufactures, cocoa.
coal, clothing, cider, cigarettes, cats.
tie, chinaware, chemicals, cheese ce-
ment, etc. Regarding what Mexico
exports, our trade is very extensive.
We are producing a great many of
the minerals required in modern in
dustry and the same may be said of
raw materials of agricultural origin
"The second reason is that we are
increasing our production and as a
natural consequence our exports and
imports are increasing. 1t is we'll
known fact that at the present time
Douglas daily dispatch., 1926-03-10

only 20 per cent Of the Mexican
population is using foreign products;
but this proportion grows every day
and there is an ample field for your
exports. The United States departs
ment Of commerce in the commerce
year book, 1924, gives these figures:
our total trade, with Mexico in
creased over 1928 by approximately
is per cent represented by an in
crease of $15,000,000 in our exports
and $27,000,000 in ocr imports Ac-
cording to the Same authority the
trade between Mexico and the United
States has increased during the ten
months period, from January to Oc-
tober, 1925, 10 per cent over the same
period of 1924.
"The third reason to consider why
the Mexican trade is more attractive,
is the proximity and facilities in
communications a trainload of lum-
Der may go from the lumber mills to
the big mining camps in Mexico and
trainload Of tomatoes may come
from the west coast of Mexico to
Chicago or New York City In addi-
ton to this, we have the fast tele-
graphic and mail communications.
"The governments of the two coun-
tries realize the Importance of this
trade and keep very well covered
both territories with consular Of
fices; the United States has 80 con-
sulates in Mexico and Mexico has so
consular representations in this coun~
try; these give great facilities to
exporters and importers, having
consular office in all the important
ports and manufacturing centers.

lem is to have them accept the paper
equivalent. The paper money. of the
past rs years was of a poor texture.
and it's tattered condition soon caused
much Inconvenience and delay in ex.
change. The new paper money is
stronger. Even the tiny silver scent

Senior Sanchez regards the ecolns
as of exceptional grace and beauty
and symbolic of Guatemala's national
aspirations. The bird of freedom Is
seated on a pillar of stone on which
is marked the date of the adoption
of the present constitution. On the
reverse side is placed on a scroll OF
the usual classic type the date
when the country achieved its indie
pendence and became u member of
the Latin American republics. The
laurel wreath and the various SYM
bOls Of justice. equity and other char
acteristic virtues are finely wrought.
The first coins were distributed about

to save every available cent in their
new venture. The coin shows on one
side the emblem of freedom, the
quetzal, a species Of glorified wood
pecker, with a tail which would put
the bird of paradise and the peacock
to shame, and with vivid red breast
more lurid than the macaw's or the
American cardinals. This bird has
never been known to endure captivity.
When taken by hunters and Gagged it
never survives the experience. A ma.
tive of the deep forests. which prevail
in Guatemala, this beautiful bird is
fast becoming extinct, and it was to
perpetuate its memory and perhc-'s

that the bird has been named as the
national emblem representing liberty
of the most untrammeled kind, q dis
