Diaz and HUerta were Indians,
full blooded or nearly so. Carranza
was ' Spanish. Obregon is Irish-In-
Sian. It is a mixture unusual for,
Mexico and’ one which may prove
felicitous.
Domestic reconstruction is one of
the main principles professed by
Obregon, and preached and practic-
ed by Provisional "President de la
Huerta, his revolutionary associate
whom he succeeds. Recognition of
Mexico’s foreign obligations is one
more. Third, and most important
from the American standpoint, is a
policy of outspoken friendship with
the United States.

“Mexico endeavoring to enforce
the nationalization of the mines,
has used in no way any right that
might in any ’sense hurt the rights
of acquistion of the owners of the
surface of the soil, respecting their
right as owners.”
General Trevino adds that "nei-
ther political science nor political
econdmy "nor even jurisprudence has
been willing to concede the right
of the natural resources of a na-
tion to Individual ownership when
these resources become the life of
that ^nation. This principle of na-
tional ownership must be applied
to oil which has a fluid nature and
travels in underground rivers that
become impossible of physical de-
limitation.

THE NEW MEXICAN REGIME
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 13 1920
Mexico at last has elected a pres-
ident without bloodshed, and also
a president who really seems to
represent the nation. Alvaro Obre-
gon is neither a theorist like Car-
ranza nor a barbarian like Villa.
In general characteristics he seems
to stand* about mid-way between
the two, and in sincerity above both.
Obregon is said to have been a
“peddler of cow peas”. For some
years he has beeen a military man.
He rendered able service under Car-
ranza, and finally turned against

epidemic removed half of the Poly-
nesian inhabitants. That means that
we must go to work if we ever
are to solve the mystery of the
origin of the race.
I have been told of four islands
in the Pacific where the last words
of the native dialect have been
spoken. That part of the race is
gone.
Dr. Gregory then told of an ar-
rangement under which Yale Uni-
versity is turning over to the Bishop
Museum a fund of $50,000 yearly to
aid in the search for the Polynesan
origin.
Many pages of the story of the
Pacific are lost or obliterated, ac

but he added, enough remained to
solve the mystery of the
what and when of the Polynesians.
“In every fundamental thing the
Japanese and the, Polynesians are
the same”, Dr. Mayer declared. “The
relationship is so close that it must
be due to blood lines.
