C. Laut, noted a*
•it investigator on economic
subjects, after an extended vis-
it to Mexico, present# her find-
ings in an article entitled,
"What is the Matter With Mex-
Icof* She says:
Such contradictory reports
come out of Mexico that the
world is tired of opinions and
explanations and demands the
facte. What are the facts?
The answer to that question
she says ,ls bound to prove the
most vital test of the new
league of nations in its Influ
ence on American affairs; for
the United States will be haled
responsible for Mexico; and
three European nations have
notified the Mexican govern-
ment they will hold it responsi-
ble for financial obligations and
loss of life during the pant sev-
en years. There Is no blinking
that fact. Great Britain,
France and Spain have served
that notice; they are going to
demand an accounting.

In cities, before dark, yes; in
the country, daylight or dark,
no; in the cities and the coun-
try after durk, never.
Of conditions In the nrmy,
writing with the greatest re-
straint, if one is to tell the
truth and not assist, in confus-
ing the public thought, facts
are Indefinitely worse (than the
pay of teachers she spoke of in
the paragraph going before this
statement). Certain garrisons,
seven in number, have not been
paid for as long as six months.
This explains why peons who
are soldiers by day turn ban
dit by night, or sell their curl
ridge belts for twenty,five cents
und their rifles for IB.50 to
any wandering gsnjf of either
revolutionists or plundering
thieves. Of actual revolution-
ary bands under recognized
leaders, who have issued mani-
festos, there are not less than
seventy working In Mexico to-
day. Of bandit bands, who will
rally around any leader in a
plundering raid, there are as
many us there are hills to con-
ceal them, and this applies to
every section except Lower Cal
ifornia.
How many revolutionary
troops are there? How many
bandits How many official
aoldiera? There is not n soul in
Mexico an answer you that
question, for the number shifts
everyday.
Of Mexico's [thirty or more
rail lines, only one runs today
on regular schedule, and it is
preceded by an armored scout
train and accompanied by two
armored box cars filled with
soldiers. Of the railroads" roll-
ing stock, the Vera Crux line is
by no means the worst example.
It had eighty to ninety engines.
It now has eighth.
The income of the Carranza
government is twice that of the
Dias regime, but there is no
credit
Have the conditions of the
root /been improved? How
about living and wages?
Before Americans opened in-
dustries in Mexico wages ran
from twenty-five cents to fifty
cents a day. After Americans
oaone to Mexico wages gradually
rose to |1.50 and $2 or $3 for
skilled labor ($7.00 currency).
Today, except in two centers,
wages are at the pre-revolution
level.
The cost of food is beyond
reach. Of fruit there Is an
abundance. The scarcity ia of
meats and fata and cereals.
Here ia the scale of prices in
tiie Gulf country: Milk, 35 to
40 cults a quart; meat, 50 cents
which is sending J^vxico over
the precipice'; it Itf up to all
who would save Mexico to hi
him eject the fi
evil,
(In her nexrs
Laut proposes to
to help Mexico).,
THE U. S, DKAJ5 IN FRANCE
The War department spnjj#
time ago announced that the
American dead in WlflPP can
not be removed from France l>e-
fore the first of January, 1922.
This announcement is made on
the suggestion of the French
government, which is against
the removal of any of the dead
hlefly upon the ground "that
France was a nation in mourn-
ng for four years of the war
and to permit the removal of
the French dead with funerals
and renewed mourning would
only add to the long period of
national depression at a time
when the opposite should pre-
vail in order to undertake the
tremendous task of reconstruc-
tion. Also, it is claimed that
the removal and transfer of
large numbers of bodies might
be production of epidemics and
pestilence."
Hills have been introduced in
congress appropriating money
for return of bodies from Eu-
rope when such return is re-
quested by the relatives of the
dead, but until now the war de-
partment has not indicated
what the policy of the govern
merit was to be. Many rela-
tives have requested that the
bodies be left permanently in
France, while others have ask-
ed that they lie returned to the
United States for reburial. For
the bodies that are permanently
the bodies that are to perma-
nently remain in Krnnce the
government will provide ceme-
teries or "American fields of
honor," They will be maintain-
ed and cared for always by the
American government, and the
French government has offered
to cede several tracts of land
for this purpose. One of them
at Komangc-sous-Montfaucon is
in the heart of the Meuse-Ar-
goune battlefield. Another is
near Paris upon the slopes of
Mount Valerien- overlooking the
pretty town of Kureanes, the
valley of the Seine, on the Bois
de Boulogne The municipali-
ty of Paris has already construc-
ted a highway called Boulevard
Washington, connecting the lat-
ter cemetery with the French
capital."
