! As for recent crimes against Americans in Mexico,
jwhile many of them have been of such sort that the Unit
k d States is bound to take cognizance of them, others have
ibecn plainly such irresponsible acts of individual bandits
: as occur every day in this country,
j Possibly intervention is necessary and inevitable.
But there is no reason for blind haste.'
j The American people have just emerged from one
:var. Do they want to plunge right into another? That
35 is the question which every American who is justly indig-
par.t at Mexican outrages snould ask himself.
! If there is to be another war, let the nation be per
fectly clear about the matter beforehand, and go in with
its eyes open, being sure of its grounds, knowing that

tailed marshalling of facts.
Thorp w nn nuestion that conditions are pretty bad
down there, that there is much disorder, that the Car
ranza government has fallen short of its duty, that Ameri
can citizens have been abused and killed. These things
have been going on for years and we have always thought
that in time the United States would have to intervene
and take Mexico under its wing like we did Cuba and
Porto Rico for the protection of our own borders and to
the ultimate benefit of the Mexican people. The question
is, however, whether conditions have grown any worse
under Carranza's rule and whether the situation is hope
less without American intervention.
The worst thing about the whole business is that it
is so difficult to tell what is truth and what is fiction.
Mexicans are such notorious liars. Sometimes Americans
sojourning in Mexico, lie, too. There is always the insist
ent propaganda conducted by American business interests
that, want intervention. Senator Fall, who is vehement
for resorting to arms to restore and maintain order in
Mexico, has been forced to confess that he is mixed up
with the affairs of Villa, the most notorious disturber of
the peace on the Mexican side. Of course, it follows that
Senator Fall has a personal interest in intervention prob
ably because of business or property interests on the
other side of the border. Every now and then a cam
paign of anti-Mexican publicity breaks out. Almost any
news item from Mexico, or the Mexican border, however
innocently veracious it appears, may have been "doctor
ed." The papers feel obliged to publish such "news." be
cause it seems true; but they cannot tell.
