(By the Associated Press

Swarthmora Pa, Oct 25.-Presi-
dent Wilson in a speech here today
proclaimed the doctrine that the
whole Western Hemisphere should bs
devoted to one sacred purpose-"that
nowhere can any government endure
which is stained by blood or support
ed by anything but the consent of the
governed
It was while extolling the spirit
with which William Penn sought to
establish "a free commonwealth" in
America that the President revealed
this doctrine. His utterances, it is
known, reflect the ideas which the
Washington administration is prepar-
ing to announce to the nations Of the
world in a formal note on the policy
OF the United States towards Mexico.
The President spoke in big tent
not far from the spot where Penn
| landed, the exercises being com
| memorative also of Founders Day at
SWarthmore College.
Il would not be interested" said the
President, 'in celebrating the men,
| ory Of Penn if his conquest had
| been merely a material one Some
| times we have been laughed at for
| boasting of the size of the American
| continent, the size Of our own do-
| main as a nation; for they have, nat.
| urally, suggested that we did not
| make 1t. But | claim that every race
| and every man is as big as the thing
he takes possession Of. and that the
| size OF America is in some sense q
| standard Of the size and capacity Of
the American people. But the ex-
tent OF the American conquest is not
what gives America distinction in tha
| annals OF the world.
1T is the professed purpose of the
conquest which was to see to it that
every foot Of that land should be tha
home OF free self-governed people,
who should have no government
whatever which did not rest upon the
consent OF the governed. would
Ike to believe that all this hemis-
pnere 1S devoted to the same sacred
purpose and that nowhere can any
government endure which is stained
by blood or supported by anything

stayed. 1t is no small matter for q
