Excerpt from The New Regime in Mexico Were it a fact that the present government in Mexico had come into power merely as a result of a movement to unseat the unpopular Carranza - in short, had personalities rather than principles been the general rather than the specific and immediate cause for the establishment of the present regime in Mexico - simple indeed would be a discussion of the steps by which Alvaro Obregon secured the presidency and of the problems which now confront him in his exalted position. Such, however, is not the case. The so-called revolution of last, May which drove Carranza from the capital and installed the provisional presidency of de la Huerta must not be considered as an isolated or as an independent movement; rather it was a readjustment within the revolution which began in 1910, and which, apparently, has run its course, and, we trust, guaranteed its ideals, only with the establishment of the present regime in Mexico. In other words, when in Mexico today one speaks of the "revolution" he does not mean merely the revolution initiated and directed by Madero against Diaz. Neither does he mean that of Huerta against Madero, nor that of Carranza against Huerta, nor even, in these later days, that of Obregon and de la Huerta against Carranza; instead, by "revolution" is meant the entire revolutionary movement covering the years from 1910 to 1920. In this sense, then, the present regime in Mexico must be considered as the child, not of any particular phase of the ten years of revolution, but of the entire revolutionary period from 1910 to 1920.

Excerpt from Mexican Problems The recent triumph of the Liberal or Popular Party in Mexico, after almost 4 years of struggle, presents a unique opportunity for the carrying of certain economic changes which will destroy forever the dangerous political power of those egotistical groups composed of big landowners, who up to now have maintained the working classes in a state of slavery and ignorance. It is only recently that the conspiracy of si lence in regard to the monopoly of the land, - the censurable policy of Porfirio Diaz and; of Huerta - was broken; and as there are still many educated people in the Mexican Federation who are not acquainted with the facts in the case, 1 shall dedicate this chapter to the his tory of the land.

Excerpt from Mexico and Its Reconstruction The developments in Mexico during the period that has come to be known as "the old regime" were of peculiar interest to the more advanced nations of Europe and America. It seemed as if here was a republic that was proving that self-government and the guarantee of public order were not incompatible with a geographical position in the sub-tropics and a population predominantly of Indian blood. What has happened since the fall of Diaz would have been more closely followed by the western world had not the World War absorbed its energy and attention. Mexico became for the moment a factor that was considered less for itself and more in its possible relation to the general conflict. With the end of the war events in Mexico assume greater importance. The revolution has proved that the government was not yet on a foundation so firm as was supposed. The task of the reformers is to find means to make it firm. The brilliant economic show of the Diaz regime must be supplemented by a transformation in social and political conditions. Efforts to bring the new day will be closely watched by those who have capital invested in Mexico itself, by those with economic interests in other undeveloped regions, by students of international affairs, especially in Europe and America, and by students of government the world around. At the beginning of the century the less informed had come to look upon the problems that might arise in Mexico as similar to those which might arise in the United States, in Great Britain, or in France.

Excerpt from It Is Time to Recognize the Present Stable Government of Mexico The United States cannot expect that Mexico will surrender her sovereignty as an independent nation and consent to any defi nite limitation of her just powers and privi leges of government, nor can Mexico expect that the United States will ever again main tain the shameful indifference to the lives and the property rights of her citizens that this country exhibited during the Wilson Administration. There has been but one such Administra tion in the whole history of this nation, and, please God, there will never be another.

Excerpt from Barbarous Mexico: An Indictment of a Cruel and Corrupt System Tm: bulk of the material embodied in this volume was gathered during two journeys through Mexico made in 1908 and 1909; the rest of it was gleaned from a careful study of current writings on Mexico, both in English and in Spanish, and from other sources. My purpose is to give the reader a correct impres sion of President Diaz and his political and economic system, of the character of the Mexican people, and of the diaz-american partnership, which has helped to enslave the Mexican nation on the one hand and has kept the American public in ignorance of the real facts on the other. Current illusions concerning Mexico and its President are exploded, and the American defenders of slavery and autocracy are made to appear in their true light. The term barbarous which I use in my title is intended to apply to Mexico's form of government, and not to its people, who have my ungrudging sympathy in the afflictions under which they groan.

Excerpt from Crimes Against Mexico This was the situation when Wilson became President. It did not take him by surprise. He came into office after Mexico had been upset for over two years. He had the advantage of the information that had been gathered, and of all the experience of the previous adminis tration. How has he met the problem? For more than six months he insulted our intelli gence by his silence - and when he was at last compelled to break his silence by the foreign powers, he calmly requested the American citi zens in Mexico to run. Thus he informed the bandits of that country that our government had forsaken its citizens in their hour of need, and that it would give them no protection hundreds sought safety by proclaiming them selves citizens of other countries. To the honor of all the other nations may it be said that none of them followed this dishonorable and cow ardly example.

Excerpt from Carranza and His Bolshevik Regime Revista Mexicana, a weekly periodical of San Antonio, Texas, a series of seventeen articles designed to show that the Mexican constitution which was adopted at Queretaro in 1917, and which is still in force, is spurious in origin and that such of its articles as effected any changes of serious import in the provisions of the constitution of 1857 were in direct conflict with the principles of equity and the demands of national welfare. At the time when the aforementioned articles were written, the government of Venustiano Carranza had been in existence more than two years and during this period it had not succeeded in restoring order in Mexico nor in establishing truly cordial relations with three of the largest world powers, the United States, France and England. Lacking a proper foundation or any real support, either within or without the bounds of its own country, the Carranzagovernment was enabled to exist only by the maintenance of an army of men and the further fact that the neutrality laws of the United States operated to prevent the arming of the nation against its rulers. The defection of a single state was all that was necessary to cause practically all of the generals of Carranza's army to turn upon him one after another and to bring about the dissolution of the government in the short space of thirty days. And now we are concerned with the question Were the Carranza policies repudiated simultaneously with his downfall? Those at the head of the federal and state governments are the same men who battled with Carranza in 1913, who styled him First Chief, who elected him president, who drew up the constitution of 1917 and kept him in power for three consecutive years.
