Mexico, Ally to South of Us,
Subject of Talk at Mt. Angel
MT. ANGEL "Mexico has
been rightly called the rich land
of . the poor " Father , Alcuin told
the assembled . Business Men's
club at the Mt Angel hotel. Tues
day noon in a necessarily brief
but enlightening talk about our
ally to the south of us. .
"The country," he said, "is
about one-third the area of the
United States" and has every va
riety of scenery and climate from
the moist jungle lands of - the
coast to the desert of the north
central part and is crisscrossed by
mountain ranges that abound in
minerals and oil. '
"And the people are poor in
this land of plenty because
aDOUt i V per CCUI m iu pujruut-
tion of 20 million depend on ag
riciUture ' and agriculture has
. failed principally because of
the collective farms, the social
istic principle - applied to the
land which was Introduced by
President Cardenas. The Mexi
can works the land bat cannot
m It and Is always at the
mercy, of the political bosses.
Often be is hungry right on his
wn farm.
- The present president, Avilo
Camacho, Is modifying the sys
tem and Is very popular with his
people because he Is recognis
ing the right of personal prop
erty and the right of parents to
hare some say about the educa
tion of their children.
"In education" Father Alcuin
continued, "there is still a great
confusion of ideas. This is a re
sult of the frequent changing of
the secretary of education since
with each change came a complete
change of the educational pro
gram. Most of the teachers, how
ever, show a fine spirit and with
the aid of the new secretary of
education, appointed by Camacho,
who is a man who holds to the
middle of the road, hope to bring
order out of the chaos.
. Priests are quite free to admin
ister the' sacrament and the
churches that are left are open
yet . this religious toleration is
granted the Mexican people only
because of the tolerance of the
president now in power. It is not
guaranteed them by the laws of
the land. It could be snatched
away at any moment. ;
"Whether it stays depends on
ms, the United States. If we,
with ear fine lip-service to reli
gion and the freedoms, stand by
the Mexican people Instead of
their political bosses, it can be
acbievedV.
As Father . Alcnin's ringing
words ended, the dab members
rose and stood In appreciation of
' his fine plea for true neighbor-.
; liness towards the Mexican
people, ?.
- Two other guests . that shared
honors and speaking time with
Father , Alcuin were Robert Mc
Nertney, nephew of A. G. Traeger
of lit Angel, and his friend, Mer-
