Abstract

The Plot Against Mexico-III
de Bekker, L. J. | August 9, 1919 issue

add to cart   close window

Careful reading of recent anti-Mexican oil propaganda shows that the press agency desires to impress on the public that there is no plot against Mexico. The plot against Mexico was discovered or invented by an author of artistic temperament. The oil men are spending only $30,000 a month in maintaining armed rebellion against the legitimate and recognized government of Mexico through subsidies to the bandit Pelaez, and not $200,000 a month, as they told the American Embassy in Mexico City. The oil interests are really engaged in missionary work in Mexico, seeking rather to benefit the down-trodden peon than to exploit the natural wealth of the country for selfish purposes.
