The original duty of the patrol-

Mexico in great numbers.

Since 1930, attempts to enter the
Urlited States illegally have de-
creased, Mathews said, pointing out
that in May, 1930, there were 223
aliens apprehended, while in the
corresponding month this year, only
23 were caught.
Fewer Jobs Available.
Mathews believed better condi-
tions in Mexico and the changed
attitude of large corporations in
Texas and Arizona toward employ-
ment of alien labor were the main |
factors in cutting down illegal en-
tries.
“We used to be kept pretty busy,”
Mathews said, ‘“‘but now a single
truck equipped with a radio can pa-
irol more territory than several
rowboys formerly could handle.”
Few wild chases across Sr if
and mountains occupy patrolmen to- |
day. Most of their time is taken |
up in searching trains for hidden |
aliens.

aliens apprehended, while in the
nopes ‘‘business’’ will pick up, for

PURITAN LAW BANNED SANTA
CLAUS AND PILGRIMS OPPOS-
ED CHRISTMAS OBSERVANCE
Christmas is America’s most cel-
ebrated holiday. But it wasn’t always
such. Two centuries ago, when Amer-
ica was just getting its start, the Pur-|
itans in New England outlawed San-
ta Claus and threatened to arrest and
fine anyone observing the holiday.
The Puritans—the same ones who
| gave America the Thanksgiving hol-
iday—disliked Christrsas becase the
Church of England, which they had
| broken away from, encouraged its
observance. A law of 1689 provided
that anyone observing Christmas
would, be fined five shillings. But in
1722, the reckless modern generation
showed signs of disregarding the law. |
That year a bitter controversy over |
observing Christmas he In the}
