DOLORES DEL RIO INVITED
TO MAKE VALLEY PICTURE

An epic film, depicting the plight
Of the Valley Mexicans as the result
OF wholesale depo-tations, has been
suggested to Dolores Del Rio. Mex
lean star, by Col. Sam Robertson,
widely known Valley character.
Colonel Robertson. who Il active
ly engaged in the fight against de-
portations, has written Miss Del
Rio as a member Of the San Benito
American Legion post which has
taken q stand in the matter.
In his letter Colonel Robertson
points TO the persecution OF the
Arcadians before their deportation
from Canada to Louisiana and
compares their situation with that
OF the Mexcans in the Valley at the
present time. The Valley charac-
ter paints a vivid picture OF aged
Mexicans being taken from their
quiet "hogars." jailed and put
across the Rio Grande into q d
try where they have no interest.
He relates that to his knowledge
during uprisings In the past more
than 100 Mexicans were lynched
outright in the Valley. They suf-
fered these indignities without a
whimper-one of the OUTSTANDING
qualities OF the race OF bronze"
Colonel Robertson said.
He asks the Mexican star to come
to the Valley and make a film that
will reveal the true character Of
the Mexican people.
