Under the circumstances. no economic gain will come to El Salvador because of our billions in aid. all of the money will just be sopped up in the war effort. President de la Madrid can explain to President Reagan. if he will listen. that Mexico is cognizant of the woes of their neighbors to the south. Quietly. Mexico has been providing a humanitarian haven for 65.000 Guatemalan refugees. almost all of them Mayan Indians. who have fled their homes because of persecution and killing by the Guatemalan army. Of the hundred million people between our border and the borders of El Salvador and Nicaragua. 80 million are Mexican. The President claims they all are threatened by the Communist action to the south and in Cuba.
