What precaution does the Mexican Government take to keep its nationals from crossing the border illegally? Does it warn them of the consequences? Does it set up road blocks to keep thousands of its citizens from the interior from moving northward? Does it carry on any type of educational program to insist that immigrants cross legally? I am afraid that instead it confines itself to demanding prohibitive and unrealistic stipulations in its agreements with this country on the employment of Mexican nationals by our farmers and ranchers. And our own Government. what steps have we taken other than running the victims down and herding them into court and back across the river?
