LAUDS MEXICAN
LABOR In TALK
Col. Robertson Tells XII
wants Box Law Should
Be Modified
especial to The Herald

SAN BENITO, July 31.-A sug-
gestion that the territory which I'VE
took from Mexico by conquest in
1877" be exempted from provisions
of the Box immigration bill was
made by Col. Sam Robertson, for
mel sheriff and developer, in speak
ing to the Kiwanis club here to-
day.
Col. Robertson suggested this as
a compromise measure, to prevent
the Box bill from having such a
drastic effect on the border section.
"The Box bill would be hell on the
people of the Rio Grande Valley,
but fine for the goat raiSers, who
would acquire Jul peoples farms
from the loan companies who hold
their farm mortgages" he said.
Our people can not do the hard
work here which is necessary to be
done, and the only people who can
do it are the MeXicans.
Retain Mexican Labor
II believe that we should retain
our Mexican labor for clearing
away Of jungle. picking our cot
ton and working our truck crops. I
think there can be some way to adj
nit Mexican nationals into that
portion of the u. S. A. which we
took from Mexico by conquest in
l8H7. 1 think this acquisition of
territory by conquest was perfectly
all right provided we treat the Mex
lean people justly. I would be will
ing to join an expedition tomorrow
for the conquest of Mexico, if I
thought we would give the Mexican
people a good government and treat
them absolutely fair in all things,
put I don't believe we would treat
them fair and justly, so we had bet
ter not start a new army of con-
quest just yet"
He said that portion of Texas

GASTONIA, N. c., July 81
To understand Gastonia's frame OF
mind, it is necessary to consider the
peculiar conditions which exist here,
and the dilemma which the little
city faces.
Gastonia is more exclusively q
one industry community than any
other / have ever seen.
1t is the very heart Of the south
ern cotton industry, which differs
materially, in its system, from the
same industry elsewhere. It's de-
velopment in Dixis has been rapid
since the beginning Of the world
war, but basically it is pretty old,
Gastonia had an early start and the
development there has been rapid
even for the south.
1t was only a small burg up until
10 or a dozen years ago. Now 1t
has about 10000 inhabitants inside
its limits or clustered closely outside
them-an arrangement which most
mill owners seem to prefer.
This population of 10000 runs 43
cotton textile plants, and there are
more than 100 in CASTOR county.
Editor James w. Atkins of the Gas
tonia Gazette estimates that IS to
so per cent of the 10000 live on the
textile industry-and the rest live
on it indirectly.
Naturally the bosses of the textile
industry boss everything and every
body in and about Gastonia.
If anybody criticizes them, he
does it in a whisper.
OF course, the textile workers out
number the bosses about 100 to !,
but thot makes no difference, be-
cause they have no influence what
ever.
No influence! No.
But odds of 100 to l would be
formidable, if ever the 100 got out
of hand.
That is why the bosses are SO
seriously upset at the thought of a
radical organization in the work
erS' ranks. Some of them are up
set at the thought of any organi-
zation at all-but particularly a
radical one
Today the powers that rule Gas
ton county are prosecuting a dozen

HARLINGEN, July 31.-A survey
