PRESIDENTS SPEECH.
Monroe Doctrine Worthless Without
Fighting Force Behind 1t.

Chicago. April 2--President Roosevelts speech
at the Auditorium here tonight follows
Mr. Chairman. Ladies and Gentlemen: To-
day I wish TO speak to you, not merely about
the Monroe Doctrine. but about our entire po-
sition in the Western Henisphere-a position
so peculiar and predominant that out Of it has
grown the acceptance Of the Monroe Doctrine
as cardinal feature of our foreign policy; and
in particular l wish to point out what has been
done during the lifetime of the last Congress
to make good our position in accordance with
this historic policy
Ever since the time when we definitely ex-
tended our boundaries westward to the Pacific
and southwark TO the Gulf, since the time when
the old Spanish and Portuguese colonies to the
south of asserted their independence. our
nation has insisted that because Of its prinacy
in strength among the nations of the Western
Hemisphere it has certain duties and response
bilities which oblige il TO take a leading part
thereon. We hold that interests in this
hemisphere are greater than those Of any Eu--
ropean power possibly can be. and that our
duty to ourselves and to the weaker republics
who are our neighbors requires US to see that
none Of the great military powers from across
the seas shall encroach upon the territory of
the American republics or acquire control there
over.

THE ISTHMIAN CANAL.

acquiesce in such territorial acquisition but also
causes US to object TO the requirement of con-
troll which would in its effect be equal to terri
torial aggrandiZement. This is why the United
States has steadily believed that the construc-
tion OF the great isthmian canal, the building Of
Whlcn Is 10 stand as the greatest material feat
Of the twentieth century-greater than any sim
liar feat in any preceding century-should be
done by no foreign nation, but by ourselves
The canal must Of necessity go through the ter
ritory Of one Of our smaller sister republics.
We have been scrupuloUsly careful to abstain
from perpetrating any wrong upon a. of these
republics in this matter We do not wish 10
interfere with their rights in the least: but.
canal ourselves under provisions which will
enable u.s. If necessary, TO police and protect il.
and to guarantee its neutrality. we being the
sole guarantor- Our intention was steadfast; We
desired action taken so that the canal could
always be used by US in time OF peace and war
alike: and in time Of war could never be used
10 our detriment by any nation which was
hostile 10 Such action. by the circumstances
surrounding II, was necessarily for the benefit
and not the detrirnent OF the adjacent American
republics
GREAT OBJECTS ATTAINED.
After considerably more than half of a cen
tury these objects have been exactly fulfilled by
the legislation and treaties of the last two
years. Two years ago we were further ad-
vanced toward the construction Of the isthmian
canal on our terms than we had been during
the preceding eighty years. By the Hay
Pauncefote Treaty ratified in December, 1901,
an old treaty with Great Britain which had
been held to stand in the way, abrogated
and Il was agreed that the canal should be con-
structed under the auspices Of the government
Of the United States. and that this government
should have the exclusive right TO regulate and
manage it, becoming the sole guarantor OF its
neutrality.
1t was expressly stipulated, Furthermore, that
this guarantee Of neutrality should not prevent
the United States from taking any measures
which II found necessary in order TO secure by
its own forces the defence of the United States
and the maintenance of public order. Immedf-
ately following this treaty, Congress passed
law under which the President was authorized
- e for ing
