The Monroe Doctrine not only 2 forbids the United States to acqui- : esce in the acquisition by foreign 2 power of territory in the Western : Hemisphere, but also causes us to . object to the requirement of a con
 2 trol which would in effect be terri : torial aggrandizement. It is not necessary that the Moh- 2 roe Doctrine be international law 2 so long as 1t is cardinal feature 2 of the foreign policy of the United 2 States, and this nation has the will e and the strength to make 1t effec-

 Monroeism should be abandoned : if the nation proposes not so to in-
 3 crease its armament as to be ever 2 prepared to enforce the doctrine. e Clustering Is as objectionable 3 among nations as among individ-
