THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

The Monroe doctrine is the name
given to- a scheme of national policy
outlined by James Monroe Q75S-lS3D,
while president of the United States,
and promulgated by him in his mes
sage 10 Congress. dated Dec ., 1923. 1t
embodies the principle of noninterven-
ton OF European powers in the af-
fairs of the western hemisphere and
has been. practically. though not for
mally adopted by the United States.
The Monroe doctrine was asserted
against Napoleon HIS attempt to
found an empire i'm Mexico in 1863
1867, and was frequently referred To
at the time of the boundary disputes
between Venezuela and British Guiana
in 1885, 1896. The following passage is
from President Monroe's famous mes
sage:
I'VE owe it, therefore, toicandor and
TO the amicable relations existing be-
tween the United States and those
powers To declare that we should con-
slider any attempt on their part to eX-
tend their system to any portion of this
hemisphere as dangerous to our peace
and safety. With the existing colonies
or dependencies Of any European
power We have not interfercd and shall
not interfere. But with the govern
ments who have declared their indie
pcndcnce ard maintained it, end whose
independence we have, on great con-
sideration and ON just principles ac-
knowlcdGcd, we could not Wow any in
terpostiun for the purpose Of oppress-
ing them or controlling i'm any other
manner their destiny by any European
power, in any other light than as the
Of an unfriendly dis
position towards the United states"
