HITS MONROE DOCTRINE
A German Professor Says Some
Hard Things.

Eerlin. Germany Monroe Doc.
trine is an empty prctenSion. behind
which is neither energetic Will nor ac.

Wagner, The celebrated political econo-
mis-. of Berlin University. begins his
reply to two questions submitted by a
correspondent whether the Monroe
Doctrine was in Il moral sense as bind.
Ing rs international law. and what nc.
tion seems dictated. first. in the inter.
est OF the German people and then in
the interest OF the European nations.
:'Scarcely could such Il doctrine he
forced upon \ conquered people after
extraordinary victories" continues the
professor. But not even the United
states predominant interests are ne.
hind this unheard-of assumption. South
America is neither geographically nor
historically so allied with North Amer.
ica and the United States as to justify
such 4 prCtcnSion even from a North
American viewpoint"
Answering the second Ques ion. Pro
