ington for "a hours. while en- route
10 Mexico City, Mexican Ambassador
Teller left here again early today for
the Mexican capital. Informed per-
sons expect Teller to return here
soon.
Tcllcz's movements and the I'M
usual secrecy maintained by both
governments regarding the present
exchange OF notes led to reports that
the United States has declared the
ambassador persona non grata and
that he has been recalled by Presi-
dent Gales, but responsible Amer
lean and Mexican officials denied
the reports.
Officials handling the American
Mexican disputes DO not attempt to
predict the outcome. This govern
mant has virtually threatened more
than once to withdraw Ambassador
Sheffield and TO lift the American
embargo on arms shipments TO
Mexico.
Threat Remains
That threat remains, but there was
10 evidence today that immediate
action IS contemplated
The alleged propaganda question,
raised by the state department,
grows out of the two basic issues in
dispute:
Tile anti-Yankee movement In
Nicaragua and Central America,
which the state department charges
is supported by Mexican arms and
money Nicaraguan revolutionists
and Mexican officials deny it. charg-
ing in turn that the United States is
guilty OF Intervention in Nicaragua.
2-Tho Mexican alien oil-land
laws, declared retroactive and con-
, fiscatory by the state department
and certain American oil companies.
Mexico denies the laws are conflsca-
tory, holding that any American
claims can be settled amicaby by
I he Mexican courts, the Joint mixed
claims commission, or if necessary
by neutral arbitration.
Charges Of alleged Mexican prop
uganda here are understood TO
arise partly from the department
suspicion regarding alleged espionage
of department employe. dismissed
last fall without formal charges
against him.
Also this government has infor-
nation purporting to show that
MeXicans In this country have &C.
lively stimulated pro-Mexican eenti.
ment
But so far as known, Teller is no
charged with direct connection witt
such alleged activities. The Mexican
embassy here throughout the dis
pute has refused to mako pres.
statements, except TO give out copiet
OF official announcements of tn,
Mexican government.

Laborers Become Capitalistic

The old wall against capitalism, the wall that 1t
was an inhuman monster with fe-f-fofum complex
to grind up human bodies has been silenced in this
country in recent years in most unusual way. 1t
has been senced by chain of circumstances which
has tended to make labor part of capital itself.
One evidence of this is in the growing pop
ularty of the financial pages of American newspa-
pers. There are more and more people reading the
financial and business news, which means that more
and more people interested in matters with which
only bankers used to be familiar Average citizens
now have their stocks and bonds as we'll the ultra
rich
The history of this situation is not hard to trace.
One factor which no doubt did much to increase the
number of investors the Liberty loans of the
war. Up to that time, it is probable that good
many people did not know quite what bond was.
Owning one or two seeing how pretty they were,
and getting the thrill OF clipping coupon and get
ting Understanding for nothingintroduced un-
told thousands to an elementary lesson in high
finance.
Bond houses took up the work after the Liberty
loans we're over gave employment to surplus college
graduates who might have starved to death but for
the growth of the bond business and the gospel
was spread still further.
The next step was the growth of the employee
ownership policy. Certain large corporations, reaz-
ing the value of having their stock owned by en-
ployes made arrangements whereby workers might
buy stock the partial payment plan. Under this
policy the lowest Office boy roustabout might claim
a percentage of ownership in 'his" company, the
the president of the corporation the chair
of the board of directors.
All this served to acquaint large numbers of
aborers with stocks. Having knowledge of stocks
bonds your humble citizen could now look to the
financial pages to how his" stocks bonds were
doing. The word dividend has been added to the
laborers vocabulary, and having already acquired
knowledge of coupons" he is in fair way of be-
coming on a small scale, capitalist.

History May Repeat

European statesmen are trying to
bottle up the Russian revolution
just as they tried to bottle up the
French revolution 1856 years ago.
If history repeats itself even to
a partial extent, we are in for a
more stupendous drama than the
World War.
The reaction of revolutionary
France to the coalitions and boycotts
formed against her was a frenzy of
patriotism that leaped all barriers
and brought forth Napoleon.
Driven to one Of the most hectic
examples of self-defense ever re-
corded, the French people became
so excited with victory that they
carried fire and sword throughout
Europe.
The Russian people are more
phlegmatic, but not to such extent
that they cannot be aroused in the
same way.

Moral Sense Immune

Ever since Alexander Dumas
wrote his famous series of novels
around the life of Joseph Balsamo.
1t has been mooted question as to
how far a person could be influenced
by hypnotism.
People of morbid turn have i'm.
agined that hypnotism could be used
to accomplish almost any end, and
have visualized il as the cause of
more than one brutal crime.
Most scientists have held that
while a person could be made to
sleep and do unusual and ridiculous
things under the influence of hypno-
tism, deep moral convictions were
immune, and that no one could be
made to commit crime unless he nat
urally were inclined that way.
If it turns out that Walthier hyp-
Noticed Dahler, and that Dahler
committed murder while under the
spell, the question is bound to arise
as to whether one was more guilty
than the other and that question
soes to the very foundation of psy-
chology.
