BERLIN. April 5.-The aim Of German
policy in Morocco Ia defined again In an
official statement published in to-night's
Norddeutsche AAg.meins ZeituR0 in answer
TO the Paris TsmpS's description Of the
Emperor's position as a fat nouveau.
The statement says that Germany IA striv-
ing for the economic equality Of all the ma
tons represented in Morocco, in accordance
with the spirit Of the Madrid national con-
ventlon Of 1880.
France on the other hand, the ZeitTno
says, claims 10 occupy an exceptional posi-
ton, and it Is doubtful II this position can
DO reoonciled With the theory Of the open
door. The contradiction between the SOW

Of Morocco on the one hand and the French
claim Of control Of the internal administra-
ton Of Morocco on the other Is still unex-

ROOSEVELT CRITICISED
ny the indianapolis NeWt." Of Which
senator Fairbanks Owns Part.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 5.-The In.
didHdpolis Neus, owned in part by Vice
President Fairbanks and for years his warm
advocate, contains a significant editorial
to-day on the Santo Domingo situation. II
says:
-Wo desire TO ask, entirely without heat,
what could the people do at the present
time TO check the policy Of the President
In Santo Domingo? Congress is not in SEES
sion. The Senate adjourned without ratifv-
ing the treaty. By its amendments il made
il clear that the treaty as originally pre-
sented to it was Objectionable. There is
no way OF getting the case before the
courts. And yet, without authority Of law
the President has managed TO put this Gov
eminent in control Of the custom houses
Of Santo Domingo
what the President has done is not to
maintain a status quo, but 10 put and keep
in force a treaty which the Senate failed
to ratify. And there is nothing the people
can do about IT, II Is to this phase Of the
case that we desire to call attention
Whether we have a legal and constitutional
Government may. as we have seen, depend
wholly on the willingness Of the President
TO be bound by constitutional limitations,
Even If Congress were in session il might
find il difficult to prevent the carrying
out Of the present arrangement.
IF war should result from the relations
between the United States and the island,
Congress would hardly refuse 10 provide
for carrying on the war. There is another
peril. For an attack on the Morales Govern
ment would be an attack on his American
manned custom houses and we should
find Il necessary to support the Government.
Thus we may find ourselves committed 10
a war by an act Of the President, war not
declared by Congress.
THE fact Of Santo Domingo's willingness
that he should collect its revenue and hold
II for the benefit Of creditors has no bearing
whatever on tho case. Such a duty can be
imposed on him only by a treaty ratified
bv the Senate, or, as THR SUS says, by Joint
resolution Of the two houses Of Congress.
The President has simply set aside the law
and il will have 20 stay set aside till Congress
meets at least
