1909 to 1925 the marines had been
present with necessary reinforce
ments from time to time to maintain
the various conservative governments
in power. On every occasion upon
which the liberals had attempted to
overthrow the various American con-
trolled governments of Diaz and the
two Chamorros, the marines were on
hand in strong enough force to pre-
vent 1t.
Why They Went.

BY THuReER LEWIS.

IlOlu
ok hundred thousand American dol
~ lars started a revolution against
the liberal president Jose Santos ze-
laya In 1909. Zelaya was opposed to
the United States acquiring control OF
Fonseca Bay for naval base and per-
petual rights for an isthmian canal.
Hence the revolution, which was d.
rected by an official OF an American
mining company, Adolpfo Diaz. the
self same gentleman who Is consi-
dered president of Nicaragua by the
United States.
The rebels were supported by Unit
ed States marines who landed at Blue
fields. Their troops and ammunition
were carried on American ships fly
ing the Nicaraguan flag. Thanks to
this aid, American paid rebels under
General Juan Estrada, beat the zelaya
forces, forcing the president to flee
and set up government Immediately
recognized by the United States.
Loan Flows.
One year later, the U. S. state de-
oartment arranged for a loan to be
made to Nicaragua by the American
banking firm of Brown Brothers and
Company. From that time on, Nicara-
guans have not been able to call their
land their own.
Eventually, the railways and banks
of Nicaragua were completely con
trolled by American banks and the
customs and revenues collected by
American commissioners to pay of
the loans forced upon the country by
he banks thru pressure by the state
department.
Dems and Reps Alike.
All of these things transpired I'M
der the presidency of William Howard
Taft. republican. President Wilson,
democrat, continued the brave work.
In 1913, the population of Nicaragua
began to boil with hostilities against
the American controlled President
Adolfo Diaz. The chamber called for
an election which was refused and the
unpopularity of the regime soon ex-
pressed itself in revolt led by the
liberals.
Eight U. S. ships Of war with
complement of 125 officers and $500
men were sent to Nicaragua and took
military steps against the rebels. Al
ter the marines had participated in all
the important military engagements
and forced the liberals to surrender,
an election was held with marines
guarding" the polls. Diaz was re-
elected president.

Press Criticism of
Coolidge

That even the capitalist press re
fuses to swallow the interventionist
policy of Coolidge and Kellogg with
regard to Latin-America is shown by
the following editorial that appeared
in the San Francisco Daily News. II
is a typical reflection of the attitude
taken towards the present crisis by q
large number of dailies turnout the
country:
BLUNDERS THAT MAY LEAD
TO WAR
Americas official policy with rela-
ton to Mexico is in the hands of
President Coolidge and Secretary
OF State Kellogg. The latter seems
to have made it or Numbered into
it; the former now asks the Amer
lean press and public to support it.
Together they are leading the Amer
icah people into war. That is what
it means If they do not take warn
ing from the peoples attitude and
abandon the course on which they
are embarked. They may not know
this. 1t may be one of the many
things in the present situation
which they do not know. But it is
the fact.
If reason does not supplant the
present policy Of our state depart
ment, this country will soon be
launched upon as shameful a mill
tary undertaking as ever besmirch-
ed a proud nations history.
New Years Eve, at midnight,
with merrymaking reaching its
height in Washington, a very differ
ent scene was being enacted in
Mexico City. There the chamber of
deputies, in an extraordinary ses-
sion, was ringing with bitter denun-
citation of the government of the
United States-the government, not
the people OF the United States. And
the galleries roared their approval.
These deeply-stirred Mexican
legislators were not threatening
war on the United States. They
threatened only to defend their
country and-to die fighting. The
years have proved they will do just
that. Do we wish to put them once
more to the proof? Or do We wish
to square the American govern
ment's course. with the clear desire
Of the American people?
