Literary Contributions of Catholics in Nineteenth-Century Mexico

A New era in the history of nineteenth-century Mexico began with the collapse of the Second Empire in 1867 and the re-founding of the Republic. Naturally, the first decade or so of this new era were years of transition. Then followed what is correctly termed the Díaz era, ending in 1910 with the overthrow of President Porfirio Díaz who for so many years, beginning in 1876, controlled the political affairs of Mexico and by his policy of peace, as González Peña points out, made it possible for Mexican literature to flower as it never had flowered before. For the Church, too, despite the existing “Reform” laws, the policy of Diaz meant comparative peace and greater freedom of action in promoting the common good of the nation. Correspondingly, as might be expected, Catholic “conservatives” in matters of religion began to feel more at ease also in the temple of Mexican culture and participated with renewed enthusiasm in the literary life of their native land.

Years of Fulfillment

THE Soviet Union has now taken its place at the table of the Great Powers. It has a permanent seat on the Council of the League; diplomatic relations have been resumed with the United States; its nonaggression and mutual assistance pact with France has been ratified. What has happened to the Soviet Union to restore it to the councils of the Powers, when for years following the revolution it was an outcast, officially recognized only for commercial and diplomatic convenience? Is its position today based on the same factors which made Imperial Russia so important in i9I4-the aggressive promotion of a stake in foreign countries? Is it important for the reason that made it so in I9I7 or I923, because other nations are protecting their stake in it? It would seem that the answer to both questions is in the negative. The history of the U.S.S.R. to date has shown that the Soviet Union has no aspiration for outward expansion, and reports indicate that it is no longer possible easily to invade it in order to put down communism or to seize territories. The position of the U.S.S.R. is unique among nations. It does not play and does not wish to play the part of Imperial Russia-to jockey for an advantageous position in the scramble for world power. It has a fixed base for all its foreign relations, a peace policy. In the balance of world forces it remains on one side of the scale-on the side of peace, no matter who its companions there may be. But while the stand of the Soviet Union in regard to peace has been steadfast, the weight which it could swing to the support of this policy has changed. And in this lies the explanation of the new position of the U.S.S.R. in international affairs. In I9I7 the new Soviet state was much like China today. Although it was a huge country with a large population and considerable natural resources, the government did not control de facto all the territory within its borders. Even in I923 when the Soviet Government had jurisdiction over the whole country it did not have the complete backing of the people. All the productive wealth was not socialized and there was

The Sale of the Chinese Eastern Railway

THROUGH an agreement signed in Tokyo on March 23, 1935, the Chinese Eastern Railway was bought by the Manchurian authorities. This agreement was a big victory for the policy of peace pursued by the Soviet Union and for the cause of peace in the Far East. It is therefore worth while recalling the most important stages of the peculiar history of this railway, in whose fate the mighty historical changes of the last few decades have been so fully expressed.
