Yes, you would think So said Uncle
Harry but as matter OF fact they
have not been especially grateful in the

became suspicious of the United States

Uncle Harry Explains the Monroe Doctrine

such Intention" asked Jimmy;
Uncle Harry laughed. Certainly
regards all the American republics as q
great family of nations whose interests
are the same. 1t would be bad for all of
us II some great foreign power got
foothold on the American continent and
used that foothold as a means to ex-
pand and grow more powerful in the
Western Hemisphere Such a move. OF

Yes" answered Uncle Harry. "and
the other nations are beginning more
and more to regard it as their big
brother. The United states has tried
not to do anything to make the other
countries fear ii and several Of our
statesmen have visited the South Amer
lean nations and made speeches and
ahown them that the United States is
sincere in its wish for their welfare"
How many republics are there in
North and South America" asked Joe.
"Twenty-one, altogether. Several OF
these are strong, responsible govern

I'm tho early days of the republic.
George Washington. in his farewell ad-

of foreign entanglements.' He believed
that no good could come to our coun-
try bv taking part in international poll

Growing out of this speech OF Wash
ineton's the sentiment of America for
Americans began to take firm hold on
the minds Of our statesmen. until in his
message to Congress on December z
| 1923. President Monroe put this feeling
in words. Reduced to simple language
the message was a promise to European
powers that we would keep our hands
on foreign territory and that we would
