On May 26, 1927, he was brought to the frontier under arrest and exiled because of religious reasons. He has spent his time since then writing numerous pamphlets in defense of the Church in Mexico.

Mr. Salusinszky came to this city from Chicago to interview Rudolph S. Hecht, president of the American Bankers' Association. "Europe realizes the futility of another war with its disastrous aftermath," he said. "Tliis does not imply that Europe is free from il* traditional hatreds and prejudices, but rather manifesto i Europe weary of its past follien whose people are resigned to continued suffering. The recent internal disturbances show these people to be more interested in their own economical reconstruction." In reference to the respective economical conditions of Europe and America he stated that Europe would be slow in emerging from the depression because of a lack of finances and the absence of a degree of wreckless initiative necessary for the resumption of normal business. America on the other hand he depicted as rich in finances, natural resources, and a wreckless initiative; which is slowly drawing us out of the mire of depression.
