Hence no nation in particular can OBJ
ject to it. for all are placed upon the
same basis, even the English.
Each state has it's own troubles.
Arizona seems to have a number of
wealthy Mexican land owners who
still keep their allegiance to Mexico
while holding large areas af land IN
Arizona. Therefore the protest in
this case is likely to come from Mex
leo, If that nation is in shape to pro-
test against anything.
Undoubtedly, however, there are in
Mexico, as there are in all these west
ern states, large ownerships of land
upon the part of Englishmen who are
not American citizens, likewise
Swedes, Norwegians, Germans and
others.
If the states all get the mania for
passing these alien land bills, the
matter is quite likely to be brought
before the United States courts upon
the issue OF whether or not it violates
treaty rights.
Presumably. however, there is some
thing to be said upon both sides of the
question. Americans have consider
able holdings in other countries in
which they do not care to become
citizens The situation becomes more
acute in this country, however, be,
cause this is a new country-a land
of opportun!ty-to which many for
eigners turn their eyes in order to
achieve wealth and success.-Colo-

scribes President Wilson's attitude
toward Dollar Diplomacy" and pro-
posed Chinese loan as a lost oppor-
tunity" Mr.. Calhoun's speech was
delivered at a Homecoming celebra-
ton There is much said about
dollar diplomacy I don't know what
that IS. but We are forging along to
a more economical development OF
trade
What are We building the Panama
canal for? Simply to allow the ships
of the world to go and come while
we sit idle and peacefully by? l be-
lieve that a nation moves by instinct
more than by design and that the
Panama canal, Philippines and Ha-
wall and other of our possessions
came by instinct rather than by de-
sign. There is opportunity for trade
expansion of the great Pacific and We
are making absolutely no effort for
that trade.
Il don't believe it is good policy
for us to sit idly by and let others go
ahead. What's the use of an open
door if we don't take advantage of it?
China is friendly to us, but she is
not in a position to be much more
She applied for help. Others gave
