Calvin Coolidge: “On the domestic difficulty that they are having there, over the religious question, which is a religious question…”

On the recordSeptember 7, 1926
On the domestic difficulty that they are having there, over the religious question, which is a religious question touching all denominations alike as I understand it, though it is referred to more particularly as a Catholic question, because I suppose 95 per cent of the Mexican people are Catholic, 95 per cent of those that have any church affiliation are affiliated with the Catholic Church, there is no difference whatever and we deal with that as we would deal with any other question that might affect the rights of property of our citizens.
