The SDraoo Doctrine"

What is the "Drago doctrine" which
Is to be excluded from the delibera-
lions of The Hague conference? 1t has
nothing to do with the late Queen Ora
ga Of Servia, but derives its name from
Dr.. Drago, foreign minister Of the Ar
gentine Republic. who, initiating the eX-
ample Of President Monroe, enunciated
the convenient theory that debts owed
to the citizens Of one government by
those Of another may not be collect
ed by force. ThiS was when the
combined fleets OF England, Germany
and Italy in 1902 appeared OF Vene-
zuela and caused Mr.. Kipling to write
his ''Rowers." This 'Drago doctrine"
was naturally hailed with enthusiasm
by all the money borrowing republics
Of South America, but they were told
from Washington that 1t could not be
regarded as a subclause of the Monroe
doctrine.-Chicago News.
