Ayala, Anita Ailer.
Biographical notes:
In the "Foreign news" section of its November 5, 1934 issue, Time magazine published a short news item on Mexico entitled "Facts of life." This article included the following criticism: "In politics and economics the [Mexican] Government [then run by the National Revolutionary Party] sees everything through pinko-socialist glasses. It rejects religion as a fraud, holding that God does not exist. As to sex, the Government favors teaching even little boys and girls all about themselves. Last week pious parents throughout Mexico were inciting their offspring to play hooky from schools in which such things are taught." Seemingly in response to this report (or perhaps a more detailed one), a teacher from Longfellow School in New Mexico -- Anita Ailer Ayala -- sought the truth from the Constitutional Governor of Tabasco, Tomás Garrido C.
