ECONOMY IN THE NAVY

Americans who imagine that the

hoten," a leading German reViewL
in the current number, makes a sharp
attack upon the Monroe Doctrine;
and the National Zietung" in CON-
menting upon the article, urges the
"Fatherland to examine closely
whether things resting upon such
shallow legal and historical founda-
tions as the Monroe Doctrine need
be tolerated, or whether, at the bot
tom they are not merely American
arrogance, which require sharp and
decisive opposition"
German colonizing concerns are
lords and masters of over 5000
square miles of Brazilian territory,

pany, of Hamburg, practically rules in
the state of Santa Catharina, and In
the adjoining state Of Rio Grande de
Sui are still other German colonies

bringing South American territory
under the German flag.
While the American people are
practically unanimous in upholding
the Monroe Doctrine, nevertheless,

look the fact that Germany is adding
four capital ships to her navy each
year. Naval strength is measured to.
