He says: If you were down here and In close touch with the whole thing you could easily see why the efforts of the President to compose the trouble is so roundly condemned. The noisiest thing In Mexico is an American dollar that feels itself in jeopardy. I met one of these blatant socalled refugees last night and had a talk with him. He was for marchIng on the city at once. I pressed him down. found he had not paid a cent of taxes in the United States for 15 years. had not voted in the States in 15 years. did not intend to return to the United States. but did cuss out all of you gentlemen who are opposed to what will certainly be a war of conquest. that ought never to be started to appease dollargrabbing fortune hunters. who. having taken a gamblers chance and the game having gone against them. want Uncle Sam to step In and pull their chestnuts out of the fire.
