DILLON ON MEXICO
Vqleran Correspondent Scolds
U. S. in Discussing Problem
Even with the dove of peace Hitting
nbetil Ireland nnd the l'nclfic nnd
building nlittle nest en the Islnnd of
Ynj), the Mexican problem still is with
us nnd if Dr. J3. J. Dillen, veteran In In
lernntlenal correspondent nnd nt least
quiisi-r.tatcBinnn, is te be believed it
Will be here foribemo time te come. In
"Mexico en the Verge" (Geerge V.
Deinn Company), Dr. Dillen gees into
an cxlmustive niid nrgumentntlve re
view of Mexico, its past and present
problems. ,
Starting out with his initial premise
Hint the United States docs net under
stand the Mexican situntlen and that
sinister Interests conspire te throttle the
real story of Mexico, Dr. Dillen enters
upon a severe arraignment of the United
States In its Mexican and Iluitlan
policies, , ,
Coming ns Dr. Dillen's book docs
while n senatorial commission bended by
Scnnter McCernilck, of Illinois, Is mak
ing n first-hand investigation of the
problem in Haiti, the indictment of the
United States ns Prussianized in its
treatment of smnller nations will sound
stronger if upheld by the Investigators.
Dr. Dillen nppcnrs as u pioneunced
adherent of Obiegeu nnd opposed te the
oil' Interests. Admitting the chaotic
conditions in the southern republic, Dr.
Dillen insists that Obrcgen Is "the. man
of the hour" and that with the Intelli
gent co-operation of the United btntes
nn era of pente and prosperity is loom
ing. Hut a continuation of the present
Hughes policy of deiminding a treaty
with Mexico before granting recognition
te Obiegen will, he asserts, menn
nnnrchv. While Dr. Dillen takes u
scolding, academic attitude toward the
United States, his book is weitliy et
perusal as giving nt least one side of a
troublcsemo question.
