vigorously enforced by the most active
executive known to the worlds history,
Theodore Roosevelt
The most cordial relations have been
built up with our South American sister
republics, and the great Panama canal,
through which shall flow the commerce
of the east and west, will soon stand to
our credit as another party achievement
Also true to the great principle of inter
