positively declines to make public the
memorandum or its substance, but It is
pointed out again that the basis Of the

looked for in the utterances OF Presi
dent Roosevelt in his annual message
to congress touching the Monroe doc

can countries which do not pay their
debts Nothing has been heard from
Caracas to sustain the report that Mfr-

powers. within the lines Of the general
policy of this country, to prevent possi-

had from unofficial sources say 1t is the
purpose OF the German government ct
least to delay action against Venezuela
until the issue of the present revolu-
tionary movement directed against
