Appalling Condition

stated. The force Of inspectors OPP
Grating under the division az foreign
quarantines is wholly inadequate to
cope with the situation. and I am
confident the committee will recon-
mend that this force be trebled. Only
ten men are guarding the ports Of
entry between Brownsville and La
redo. and they deserve the gratitude
Of the Valley for the work thew have
ACCOMPLISHED. This number is n
tirely too few. and I believe that at
least thirty inspectors should be pro-
vided.
The fact that border residents
are themselves the most fragrant
and persistent violators OF the quar-
sntine rules indicates that a cam
Dairn Of education should be inaug-
urated. III border residents disregard
the regulations. what can We expect

ignorant Of the quarantine?"

mend that signs be placed on all

will be made THROUGH the Valley

cate the Valley public to the grave

justice as was done to the French
Acadians hundred and sIxty-five
years ago. who were deported from
Acadia. Canada to Louisiana. The
world will never forget the deporta-
ton Of the Acadians and we men OF
Sam Jacksoa Post of the American

ton we have. and sec our govern
ment commit equally as foolish a
blunder as the English did In 1755.
Some Of us r Louisiana Acadians

French forefathers from our grand
mothers.
we earnestly counsel you to re-
main where you are In your homes
among us. your friends. who have
learned something Of your language
and real worth.
The lands in Mexico on which
the Mexican government Is propos-
ing to give you a refuge. Is unir-
Tirated. and you know that in three
years out Of five. YOU will make al
most a complete failure without ir-
rigation. Even II you could raise a
crop. there is no market for your
produce in Mexico. II you raised
corn and frijoles. you could only
cat II. You might make a bare ev-
istence in your former home coun-
try. but you can never hope to pros
per there as you have here. For
nearly twenty years your country has
been torn by revolution: 1t is to be
hoped an era of peace has arrived:
but it is not at all sure. Many or
YOU we're driven over here by the
various revolutions in Mexico.

IF you once the Rio

IL you do not succeed in Mexico.
Most Of YOU have established a
credit here with our merchants,
planters and bankers who are al
ways ready to extend you credit
in time Of need. Remain quietly
at home here and let the Ameri-
can Legion fight your battles. We
are certain president and other
high officers. when they know all
the facts. will neither be heartleSs
nor stupid enough to allow inius-
tice against you to continue TO be
practiced.
IN the meantime, sit tight, start
now TO plant your winter crops and
prosper, and send your kids to our
splendid school In Mexiquito. The
principal Of this school Is Mr..
Frank Pearce. a World war vet
eran, who was raised among the
Mexicans on this border. He speaks
good Spanish and viii treat your

and We, the Sam jackson Post RIO.
Ill. Of the American Legion. put
out the above notice to reassure
our home Mexicans.
Curb Propaganda
Through the Valley press we cal
on all people loving justice. also
those having financial interests at
stake TO assist in saving our farm
laborers TO our small farmers and
ranchers and to secure justice for
our Mexican laborers. Through
the press we appeal to all churches,
all American Legion posts. Lions
clubs. Kiwanis clubs. Rotary clubs,
chambers of commerce. mayors Of
cities and towns and commits
sioners' courts to join in a move
to organize a workable organiza-
ton and finance a protective asso-
citation TO protect our border Mexi-
cans. farmers and ranchers in this
immigration question and to curb
the propaganda being put out by
uniformed eastern and northern
papers with enormous circulation
whose half-thought-out propaganda
is endangering the welfare Of this
entire border country from Browns
vile 10 San Diego. Calf. We wish
to thank such well informed and
York Times and the Kansas City
Star for their helpful assistance To
our Mexican farm laborers and our
small farmers and ranchers and in
directly our entire Mexican border
country from the Gulf Of Mexico TO
the Pacific ocean,.
The border country Is the one
to suffer in times Of trouble with
Mexico and we wish to help Our
state department TO maintain
friendly relations with our nearest
neighbor. We urge all ~organiza-
tons addressed above to get busy
now and get action. w particularly
ask all Valley American Legion
posts to form a strong association
through our district commander as
we did when threatened by the
Japanese labor invasion in 1921.
The Legion saved the Valley then
and they must act as the shock
troops now to hold the line until
the reserves we have called on can
organize and come TO our all.
Where would the world be today if
little Belgium had not stepped into
the breach until France, England.
finally Italy and three years later
slow moving but powerful u. S. A
came to her rescue. The Valley
Legion can only be the Belgium in
this movement. Our slower people
will finance and save this situa-
ton before the shock troops are
exhausted.
We haven't time to write, we are
telegrephing through the press.

TIME most romantic figure in Dan
ish medicine-Dr. Edward Ehlers
of Copenhagen. Hazardous medical
research in the tropics has brought
him decorations from half the govern
ments of Europe.
Hospitals for children born sick into
the world, established by him through
out Denmark, have cut the infant
death rate from one especially dread
disease to one sixth it's former grim
total.
Holder of degrees from the Uni
versities of Paris, Strassburg and

the health properties of yeast is drawn
from years of experience as a skin

Many doctors now agree that UNI
