Mexico Has Obtuse Un: del-standing. e i i ' r A Blatcmunt recently given out nt Mexico City by Senor Salvador I)li'tfo Fernandez, ''chief of staff in charge of foreign relation' reads as fol lows: 'Tho conference now meeting at Paris has considere I thi rerognition of the Monroe due-trine. Some govern- hp.ve to Jo in order to brine; Italy to terms is to shut, off her supplies. And there need be no question that they ale p repaid! to do ihut very thing r it comes to (he worst. j The fact, too, that Italy needs tho mural support of tho allies will have its weight when once the Italians be gin to reason soberly. They will rea- meats, friends of Mexico, have asked j listo that Cennany sympathy is a sa.l Mexico for its opinion regarding the exchange for the respect and friend doctrine and tho Mexican department jsdiip of honest nations, of foreign relations has answered that ' " Where Church Give Prac tical Aid. the Mexican government hiiH not rec ognized and will not recognize the Monroe doctrine or any other doctrine Mint attacks the sovereignty and inde--.r"'Ienre of Mexico." u. agfrn we see how the Mexican "'ornpipnt loves Uncle Ham. and how - M the Mexicans understand the Mnn- "" doctrine. '- fh.t M'iir(,v b)l" - 'r"S wi'h, new I- r-n-1 :M he sptiidf ically designed rot : ' """k" but to protect and defend ; ii 'sovereignty and independence of j Mcx co." It was applied to that pur- ' ivse with telling effect in the mo t , critical period of Mexican history, at the close of our Civil war, when France had inti rvened in Mexico and given the country an Kurepenn rulei in the person of Maximilian, an Aus trian prince. The United States or dered out Maximilian and his Kreneh supporters and gave Mexico a ehunci to work out her own freedom. The Monroe doctrine has been ap plied with hardly less effect, though . less spectacularly, in the.us hut few turbulent years, when nothing but Uncle Sam's club kept Mexico's Kurii peuu creditors from intervening and taking possession of the counts y to satisfy their claims. Indeed, the ivnt of the world has been di-pnsed to find, fault with the United States on the giound that it has been altogether too solicitous for .Mexico's "sovereignty and independence' keeping r uuvt i IT to an extent that was tu. 'or M. ico's own good. However, as far as Carran::a an' his crowd me I'oncerned, A menean.- ! have long ceased experth.g them eet i ' t.i understand :fny thing ainni' tl'i- . country.
