 t!ons Our troupIes With CoiuInbla Is all example m pont our admlnistra- sra'e nnportance, when at one Ame thieAteneu the continuation ot vne ul tines Ill which the whole world Is u be benefited. There is no sooner d change Of administration than the whole question is reopcned and ne- gotiations entered upon to correct what the present administration con siders former administration blun- der or worse. Foreign counties are beginning to feel that we as a nation change our foreign policy with every change of administration and change of the political complication of our senate. If this changes favor a bet ter bargain, the nations naturally contrive to delay settlements of con- troversies till the political changes arc made. taking chances on a moro fav- oarble and complacent pesident or the changing complication of the sen- ate. National interests dema11ds that the possibility of this joeksying flor be made impossible a~1 be by establishing an unwrit- ten law in the state department that the position taken by one administra- tion in a controversy be upheld by its successor.
 In order to secure this contenuity, it Is necessary for this government to revise it's policy towards other Am erican republics to meet the changed which have arisen during the last century. Our South American neighbors have developed into progres- sive we'll organized nations. especially Is this true of nations like Brazil, Ar gentina and Chile who resent being classed with such hotbeds of revolu- tion as Hayti Santo Domingo and the General American states and venezula under the general term 'Latin- Am erican republics" Theye have long since grown out of that class and they rightfully demand that a distinction should be made.
 The idea that the United States by our Monroe doctrine makes us | protectors of all other American re- publics is strongly resented not only | by those which need no protection but also by those who do need 1t. There | Is now no tendencies nor desire on l the part of any European to change l any American republic into mon- archy or. to interfere with their in- ternal affairs, as was the case at the time the Monroe doctrine was pro- mulgated. The South American re- publics now maintain that the Monroe doctrine is obsolete, so far as the orig nal purpose Is concerned. We are focused of keeping it alive as pre- ext for aggression on our part and Jay there is more need for protection against the United. States than from my European power.
 They point to Panama and Nicara- 'ua as examples. The present admin K stration right or wrong, has done much to increase this, feeling. We are mourning the i'll will of our neighborsI vhen we should have their confidence.
