European war has done more 10 develop
harmony and mutuality of purpose to-
ward us than any feat could possibly
do. II has made that now famous Mon
roe Doctrine stand out and bind the
United States and the South American
republics together as sister countries.
''It is interesting 10 note the changes
which have resulted and how with force
and power they have grown until South
America in 20 cooperation with the United
States holds the one sacred principle
that the problems of America shall be
settled by the Americans.
Just as Latin-America has CO
operated with us in the Mexican
trouble just so will she cooperate
with us no matter how the European
war Is terminated. AZ the present
time the Monroe Doctrine is develop
ing in force and power until 1t VIII
soon become a Pan-American doc
trine.
"The South American republics
will fight for the honor and integrity
of tho United states Just as we our
selves will fight for It. They realize
that II the United States we're 10 tall
from attack. their countries would be
next I'm line to feel the wing OF de-
istruction. desolation and ruin.
FOLLOWING In the wake of the Eu-
ropean war there Will be only one
thing which will determine the com
mcrcial relations OF the world. and
that will be the Pan American Union.
