PRESIDENT URGES THE RAISING OF
FOREIGN POLICIES ABOVE STANDARD
REMOVE RELATIONS ABOVE THE
CONFLICT OF PARTISANSH|P

ana the united states, between Peru
and Ecuador: the arbitration of the
Panama-Costa Rica boundary dispute:
the Intervention between Haiti and
dominican republic ON the verge OF
war, the suppression of the Nicara-
guam war, the halting OF internecine
strife in Honduras, the adjustment
of the celebrated Tanoa-Arioa dis
pute between Peru and Chile, and
the adjustment of the Peruvian-Ec-
uadorian boundary dispute.
In consequence of these things,
says the president, there has been
general easing of international ten
sion on the west coast of South
America. He also adds that the di-
plomacy of the United States is ac-
tive in seeking to assuage the re-
naming i'll feeling between this coun-
try and Colombia.
1 Taking up some of the details of
4 the years diplomatic work, the presi-
dent refers with expressions of pride
to China, where the policy OF en-
couraging financial investment to en-
able that country to help itself has
had the result of giving new life
and practical application to the open
door policy" The consistent purpose
American capital in China, says the
lpresident, to promote the reforms to
which the country is pledged by
treaty with the United States and
other powers. There has been a
vigorous assertion, also, he says. of
the equal right of the United States
to voice in all questions pertain
ing to Chinese loans and develop
ments.
President Taft makes the direct
charge that the terrible events re-
corded in Nicaragua recently, the
useless loss OF life. the devastation
of property, the bombardment of the
principal cities, the killings and the
tortures and sufferings, might have
been averted had the department of
state, through approval of the loan
convention by the senate, been per
, mitted to carry out its now well de-
, veloped policy"
In Central America the aim has
been to help such countries as Mica
+ ragua and Honduras to help them
a selves says President Taft.
