Foreigner’s Claims Abrogated
“The revolution, needing the'
resources of natives and foreign-i
ers alike for the reconstruction
of the country, we will not be re-
sponsible for debts or claims made
by foreigners who have come to
this hospitable country, there-;
fore, it is logical and fair that:
they suffer the consequences com-
ing from a state of war.
“No foreigners can acquire real
estate or any other property here-
after, unless they are naturalized j
Mexicans for twenty-five years!
and have resided continuously j
in Mexico for that period. To|
fulfill the needs of the revolution
all property of foreigners hereby
is confiscated and becomes the!
property of the nation.
Americans and Chinese Barred
“It has been fully demonstrat-
ed that the North Americans are
in a greater part responsible for
the internal strifes, which they
are fostering, as it is proven by
the unjustified and continuous
presence on our soil of their
troops. Therefore all North Amer-
icans are declared incapable of ac-
quiring property, as well as the
Chinese.
“All railroads, with every bit
of stock is hereby confiscated for
use of the nation. Foreign com-
panies who claim property rights
to railroads are not to be taken
into consideration.
“Mining properties of the coun-
try, owned by foreigners, also are
confiscated for the use of the na-
tion.
Cut Wires to Border
“In order to stimulate Mexican
manufacturers to increase their
industries generally over the
country, all sorts of mercantile
operations with the United States
are hereby suspended. All rail-
and wire communications shall be
cut eighteen miles below the in
ternational boundary to enforce
this provision.
“All military chiefs are hereby
urged to make all male iithabi
tants in their respective terri
tories take military training and
be prepared for the great strug-
gle with the invaders. Those who
refuse are to be declared traitors
and will be shot, their property
confiscated and never returned.
“All military chiefs must act
under the most strict provisions
of morals. Those guilty of mis-
conduct will be immediately shot
without distinction of military
rank or prestige.
“To scare those who like to
misuse public power, and to avoid
troubles to onr country, as soon
as Venustiano Carranza flees and
seeks refuge in foreign lands,
evolutionary government will ask
his extradition. If that country
refuses to send back Carranza
to be punished for his crimes, the
citizens of said country will be
shot.
‘ ‘ Fellow countrymen :

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Dec. 7.—
The absolute necessity of Texas
creating a State Highway Depart-
ment before she may hope to re-
ceive any portion of the $75,CC
000 appropriated by the Federal
Government for good roads, was
stressed by J. D. Fauntleroy, Dis-
trict Engineer who will supervise
the highway' work to be carired
on during the next five years by
the United States Office of Public
Roads in Texas, Arkansas, Okla-
homa and Louisiana.
Mr. Fauntleroy was in San An
tonio several days looking over
the ground and getting acquaint-
ed with some of the men in
charge of Good Roads work in
Texas and explained that Texas’
portion of the Federal appropri-
ation will be approximately $4,-
515,750 but that in order that
any portion of this may be ob-
tained it will be necessary for the
State or the subdivision thereof,
to expend, at least an equal sum
and that such work will be done
by the State Highway Depart-
ment in conformity with plans
specifications agreed upon be-
tween that Department and the
U. S. Department of Agriculture.
