While the> democrats have raised a Joyous

terances, as though Mr. Wilson had entered
on an entirely new phase of American etatecraft
as matter OF fact, this policy Is not a new one
and only the present straits OF the majority
party at this time lead It to pretending that
discovery has been made. From the time OF
James Monroe down the attitude OF the United
States towards the other American governments
has been the same. always helpful, never ag-
gressive. and patient to the last degree. II is
true that some OF the urgency OF self-interest
that might have fostered the policy in the be-
ginning no longer exists, but II 10 not alto

first recommended it's adoption and practice.
For fifty years republican presidents
sought to cultivate better and closer relations
with the several peoples OF America; even
Grover Cleveland surpassed Mr.. Wilson in his adj
vocacy of an All-American union, while he
pressed to the actual verge OF war with England
on account of Venezuela. When Roosevelt and
Taft sent missions to the South and Central
American countries democrats sensered at their
efforts as dollar doplomacy" Now = single con-

While shouting thus. the party clacquera are
simply trying to divert public attention from
the weakness Of the administration In other
directions but the trick is too thin to fool any
one who doesn't want to be fooled.

Good Job Well Done.

The announcement from the Belgian relief
committee that urgent need for food no longer
exists in that country is welcome news for
Americans. Not that our people are weary OF
giving, but because they are glad to know that
conditions in the little kingdom of grief have
been 30 greatly improved. Restoration Of in
dustry and the normal activities OF social life
there had been such as to remove the danger OF
privation from lack OF food. The generous
response from America last winter to the call
for aid for Belgium saved millions from suffer-
ing, and grateful Acknowledgement has been
made Of this service. Our people have ever
been ready to share their bounty with the
needy, but this was the biggest job OF its kind In
recent years. 1t was tackled in a spirit OF con-
fidence, and the work was carried through with
ardor 10 success. and America is ready now for
the next call.

America should Protect Its Citisens.
ST. MARY, Neb.. Dec. Ito the Editor
Of The Bee: I would like to express my
opinion in regard to the actions OF our

this government cannot guarantee pro-
lection to any person or persons within

This nation was ready to go to war on
account of the sinking Of the Lusitania

How many were there among those that
were there on necessary business? Prob
ably none. II some ammunition manu-
facturer were to go there to close deal

slaugtering of humanity, OF the closing

sity and promise him or them protec-
ton The war munition manufacturers
have spent a vast amount OF money In
perfecting their plants and naturally
want TO prolong the war for profit and
are opposed to any one interfering with
the arrangements and must be protected.
But this government cannot afford to
protect peace mission because II does
not deem It a necessity.

sion to advocate peace on earth, good
will to men. Henry Ford goes to Europe

secretary Of state does not seem to con-
slider such a mission necessary. But II It

youth of this nation on the battlefield TO
