Mexico ; Is Left Out in

In nil of Venustiuno Carrnnza's
blustering history us revolutionary
leader and president of Mexico there
has been rathing ruore calculated to
give him u shock than the absolute
ignoring of him and his government
by the I'eace Conference. Mexico is
not even invited to join the lengue of
nations. Argentina, Chile and Co
lombia are asked. Brazil, llolivia,
Cuba, Uculolur, Guatemala, Haiti,
. Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru
and Uruguay are already in as char
; ter members. Alone among all the
: l.atin-Americnn republics - that amount
to anything Mexico is left out in tlie
cobl.
This is, of course not n slight on
Mexico as n country, but nn indict
