Mexico Fosters (Please turn to page two) but a small proportion of the Mex ican people. Nevertheless, the pano rama of Diego Rivera’s huge mur als on the wall of the Palacio Na tional, with their adroitly worked in but quite obvious social slant, impressed us, as did the equally propaganda murals by the same artist in—of all places—the min istry of education building. University professors, we learned through questioning of guides and others, are also given to freely • spoken opinions, both in the class room and out. Occasionally they pass from speech and written opin ion to direct action. Student demon strations against government regu lations have been frequent, we were told, and in at least one in stance a group was besieged in a classroom. They held out for sev eral days, with food being passed to them by fellow students who had strung a wire to a building across the narrow street. Opposition to the sentiments of artists is sometimes equally phys ical. A part of one of the Rivera murals in the palace whicl*. attacks the Catholic church has been de faced three times. Each time the artist has replaced the obliterated portion. Despite the vehemence with which political struggles are often carried on in Mexico, however, anyone with enough money to buy advertising space is permitted by the government to say anything he likes in any publication. In fact, the most restricted section of any big Mexican journal is often its English-language page. Saddle Horses for Hire— One-half mile north at overheard crossing.
