Dictator likened
To Aztec Rulers
Fate of Iron-Handed Lords
of 300 Years Ago Is .
Seen by Baldock
Dictator nations of today might
take a cue from the Aztecs of the
South America of S00 years ago
and avoid a like fate. R. H. Bal
dock, Oregon state highway engi
neer, told the Salem Rotary club
yesterday daring tbe course of
travelogue describing his recent
trip to Chile to attend the Pan
American highway conference at
Santiago.
The Aztecs, he pointed out.
ruled their peoples with such an
iron band that the non-rnline
classes were not unwilling to hav
their leaders overthrown by the
invading Spaniards, whereas the
more individualistic people in
what is now Chile i ever submitted
to the hard Aztec rule and suc
cessfully rebuffed the conqnteta
dors from abroad.
The Pan-American highway is
completed between Canada and a
point 100 miles south of Mexico
City but it will probably be 1
years before it Is extended to its
ultimate goal, along the entire,
west coast of South America. Bal
dock predicted. Constructional
difficulties are severe along tho
continent to the south, he said.
but the southern nations look t.i
this highway as the solution to ,
its transportation problems.
