property by a comparatively few

tai to help him develop the coun-
try-in return for rich profits.
Ripe For Revolution
In 1911, the fiery Madero and
his revolutionists turned out Diaz,
and set themselves to iberating
Mexico.
But Mexicans of 1911 were not
ready for freedom. A succession of
military conquests and uprisings
followed.
Each new president also had to
keep weather eye on the United
States. Uncle Sam was policing
the Americas, and a revolutionist
in bad order to the north had bet
ter look out for rivals who could
smuggle in rifles or get money
from people who had investments
in Mexico.
Moreover, a leader thrust into
power by a military faction had to
fiId quick money to run the gov
eminent and pay off his support
ers. The simplest way was to tax
landowners and foreign capitalists.
He also needed popularity, and
the popular thing was to promise
to give the land back to the In
dians and drive out foreigners.
The Dilemma
Here were the horns of a dilem-
ma. If a leader drove out for
eigners and gave the land to the
people, he faced bankruptcy and

Intervention by the United States.
If he took the taxpayers and for
eigners' money, he faced revolu-
ton.
The upshot was the people con-
tinued to get promises, landown-
ers and foreigners continued to
hold their property. In 1917, Presi-
dent CarranZa wrote the promises
into a new constitution. That,
among other things, pledged the
government to:
1. Give workers a share in in
dustrial profits and to divide the
lard among the Indians.
2. Take over the mineral rights
in the name of the Mexican peo-
pie.
Until 1884, however, these still
were more or less promises under
powerful Plutarco Elias Gales.
In that year Gales selected La
faro Cardenas, to become his rub
Der stamp president.
Much to everybody's surprise,
Cardenas was no rubber stamp. He
increased the army's pay and pen
siors; reduced illiteracy; softened
the war against the Catholic
church; turned the Gales political
machine into the Cardenas ma
chine; began to fulfill promises of
the 1911 revolution.
=
Chooses One Horn
Gales called a halt - and
found himself a man without a
country. Cardenas began turning
the landed estates over to the In
dams. The deposed owrer got a
promissory note.
Now, when the oil companies
refuse to pay labor costs they say
would ruin them, Cardenas in
vokes the appropriation law of
1886, takes over $500, 000,0 900
worth of property. He says Mexico
will pay the owners within 10
years.
Whether Cardenas is risking
economic confusion, or bankrupt
cy, nobody knows.
Likewise, observers here Won
der what the United States can do
under its new good neighbor pol
icy.
The United States has been
buying Mexican silver well above
the world price, and pegging the
Mexican peso (dollar) with these
purchases. That might be used as
threat, but the threat of econ
omic intervention is ticklish, be-
cause every nation south of the
Rio Grande is watching Uncle
Sam.
Meanwhile, Cardenas calls up
Mexicans to make sacrifices for
economic liberation" The 1911
revolutionary firecracker has fin
ally exploded.

Washington "A revolutionary
firecracker whose fuse has been
suffering in Mexico for gen.
Grafton, has just exploded in the
faces of American and British oil
companies-and their govern
ments.
That's the meaning of President
Lazaro Cardenas' decision to ex-
propriate foreign oil holdings and
empower native workers to run
them in the name of the Mexican
government.
The fuse was lighted early in
this century when Francisco Ma
dero and group of revolutionists

point of view-promised to make

Back To The Indians
First, they proposed to give the

Next, they promised to kick out
the foreigners and take over the

The revolutionary cause seemed
hopeless in those days. Dictator
