Proposal to Mexico.
A German commission was sent to Buenos Aires to study "the possibility of 'Accommodating 5,0(10,000 immigrants." This was the number mentioned in an inquiry addressed to the Mexican Government. . : The proposals were made on behalf of a German colonisation corporation, and not, of course, for the German Government, though (lie plans for settlement proposed are known to he in line with the Government policy towards emigration. What the attitude of Argentina, ambitious for the development of its rich resources, will be is not known, and before decision there would doubtless be a careful investigation of the German Government's connectrbn with, tho scheme. The course the Mexican Government will finally take has not been announced, but Mexico's Secretary of tho Interior has takei> a position in opposition, statin? that the Mexican Congress would be asked to pass a Bill to prevent the threatened influx of Germans. A rebuff at the start, however, will not prevent the Germans from pushing their plans to the. utmost.
