WALLACE FINDS NAH
PROPAGANDA IN MEXICO

A0IHINOh nv N1G<n1NO
Behind the scenes, Henry Wallace
played quite a part in the Mexican
U. S. agreement to work out joint
plans for national defense.
1t was Henry's job, during his trip
to Mexico, as vice president-elect,
to put across some quiet diplomacy
with new President Avila Camachs
aimed to smooth out all U. S.
Mexican problems. This he did,
and became completely "simpatico"
with high Mexican officials.
However, Henry also brought
back a very worrisome picture Of
Nazi activity in Mexico.
Being farm boy from Iowa, and
skeptical about the Zimmerman af-
fair during World War I when the
German foreign Office invited Mex
leo into an alliance against the
United States, Henry went down to
Mexico as an unbeliever as far as
Nazi propaganda was concerned.
But he came back, his skepticism
gone.
The great mass Of the Mexican
people and the Mexican government
are sincere believers in friendship
with the United States, Henry found.
But a small minority, plentifully
supplied with Nazi-Fascist cash, has
been doing its best to poison friend
ly relations.
In fact, there were some indica-
tons that the Nazis might even 60
to such lengths as outright sabotage
or damage to the United States in
such a way that Mexico would get
the blame, thereby stirring up ami
mostly between the countries.
Note-Last year $4,000, 900 in U. S.
greenbacks was taken to Mexico
from New Orleans by Count Robert
of the Italian legation, presumably
for propaganda purposes. Count
Robert is the son-in-law Of Ogden
Hammond, ex-ambassador to Spain
and a leader of the move to Co
operate with Spanish Dictator
Franco.

Britain Asks
More Tankers

WASHINGTON An admins
trstion senator reported today
that the oil industry, already
wrestling with an east coast gaso-
line shortage of disrupted proper
tons. has been asked to supply
100 additional tsnkers 10 expedite
shipment of petroleum TO Great
Britain.
The senator. who requested that
his name be withheld, said the re-
quest for an additional pool Of
100 vessels. more than one-third
OF the nations supply. was re-
oeived three weeks ago. His in
formation, he added. came from a
high official in the oil industry.
PORTLAND-H. ID. Collier Of
San Francisco. president OF Stand
ard Oil Company Of California,
today discounted the likelihood Of
petroleum rstioning on the Pa
cific coast.
The Pacific coast has ample
supplies Of crude oil. Collier said.
Withdrawal Of IS per cent Of the
Pacific coast oil tsnkers has
caused Va some dislocstion Of
transportation service and Se
have had 70 throw into service
some bsrges on the coastal move
ment
However, our refining capacity
and distributing facilities are
good. and see very little chance
Of gasoline shortage on the
coast With the loss Of ships. We
are simply making greater use Of
the railroads"
