DENUNCIATION of fascism
~ comes glibly from such men
as Henry Wallace, who use the
word as a big, rugged rock TO
heave at all who resist their
attempts to make over Ameri-
can society and economy with
materials imported from Eu-
rope and with the help of dill
gent. even pestiferouS per-
sonalities STEPPED in European
thought and tradition.
Such men are displeased with
this America, and the Euro
peans who are so influential in
Washington bring only Euro
pean blueprints for reform or
improvement.
Fascism, TO such minds. is big
business, the same big business
whose managers have toiled
tirelessly TO achieve the coloS-
sal production of all tn e
weapons, vehicles and vessels Of
war which smashed the Axis in
Africa and Italy and enabled
Communist Russia to save her
life when her own long and
secret preparations for war fell
alarmingly short of sufficiency.
1t were odd that such men.
II they were FascistS, were so
enthusiastic over the task of
manufacturing on a scale that
Hitler and Mussolini never
thought possible. and that some
of them, in fact, and the sons
of many of them. went to the
war in person TO kill F'asciSts.
pUT for big business and the
- devotion of its managers,

Mr.. Wallace and so many others
of like mind have been a part
for 10 years, had concerned it
self with politics, the planned
exploitation of want and the
impairment of industry TO the
neglect of the nations fighting
powers.
Nor can IL be said. when this
marvellous production has killed
faScism in Europe, permitting
the Communists TO substitute
their equivalent of faScism in
large areas, that American big
business provoked the war as a
means of selling its products
and making profits.
These men knew there would
be no profit for them or any
one else in this war and they
Jagged until war was upon us
because Mr.. Wallace's govern
ment had no plans for them and
because they still remembered
that their kind had been called
merchants of death after the
last one.
THEY realize now, moreover.

By JOSE RODRIGUEZ

MEXICO CITY, July 28-One overmaster-
ing ambition, one dominant desire, animates
and stimulates all Mexican men of affairs
today; the creation, development and per-
lection Of a national industrial program
This is as emphatic theme in the con-
versation of workmen, shopkeepers and
farmers, as in the formal statements of
cabinet ministers, bankers and men of large
affairs in general.
One remarkable aspect of this common
aspiration is that the Mexican does not regard
the problem, or it's solution, as a matter
exclusively for Mexican concern or profit.
Almost automatically he regards himself
and his. country as one component of large
organization. One might say that the doctrine
of oontiperthyNs ~ n eiY, or o9lfRssaRerea, "
tegration or Wnat you will, tas taken COM
plete possession of Mexican economic as we'll
=. as social thinking.
A leader in TINS movement is the brilliant
and youthful Miguel Aleman, the present
secretary of the interior and one of the most
popular figures in Mexican public life.
Senior Aleman speaks tersely and wildly
on the subject. He said to this CORE
spondent:
"A strong and prosperous Mexico Is a
vital asset TO the United States, in every
sense. weak and INDECENT Mexico is n
grave danger to the United States, also in
every sense.
THE development of Mexican economy
is no longer matter of interest only to
Mexico II is important to every neighbOr
of Mexico. Mexico, with strong and we'll
developed industry, will be both purveyOr
and consumer, buyer and seller to all its
neighbors, but principally to the United
States.
Wants Complementary Industry
There is no reason, no preteXt
nor excuse, and certainly no room for
competitive international industry in our
continent. From Alaska and Canada to
the canal, it is perfectly possible would
4 even say in time iBeyitsble-that n we'll
cO-Ordinated and everywhere complementary
industry should rise and flourish.
THE immense variety Of soils climates,
resources, needs, customs, products, and so
on, give us the natural indications for the
course and nature Of this economic in
tegration."
Senior Aleman is quick TO recognize that
it is one thing TO state principles and quite
another 10 make them work. But in the case
of nourishing and nursing the tender young
plant of Mexican industry, he finds an excellent
precedent in the development of the American
Pacific southwest.
There are some striking analogies here.
In the southwestern states, just like in
Mexico, practically the whole problem could
be expressed in the word water"
