WAR SOON'-ROO
Sees Monroe Doctrine Staked
on Issue Of European
Conflict.
TALKS TO WORLD JURISTS
Former Cabinet Officer and DR.. David
Jayne Hill Address International
Law Institute.

The issue Of the present war in Europe
may well determine whether the United
States must act in defense Of the Monroe
doctrine or whether this country must
abandon that doctrine, declared Elihu
Root. former Secretary Of State and
former United States Senator from New
York at the opening meeting of the
American Institute Of international Law
al the Shoreham last evening. Mr. Roet
said
whether the United States will soon
have occasion or long have the ability
or the will to maintain the Monroe docs
trine lies. in the uncertain future
Whether II will be necessary for her TO
act in defense of the doctrine or aban-
don it may well be determined by the
issue Of the present war. Whether, when
the occasion comes she will prove to
have the ability and the viii to maintain
the doctrine depends upon the spirit Of
her people, their capacity for patriotic
sacrifice. and the foresight and character
Of those to whose initiative in foreign
affairs the interests Of the people are
ntrustei."
Mr.. Root declared that in the last ten
years. governments have violated and
fouted the law with appalling conse-
uuences."
DR. David jayne Hill. former United
States Ambassador TO Germany, stated
that If International law is to be made
more effective. it must insist on the
severance Of diplomatic and commercial
relations with a persistent lawbreaEer.
y nation that. after remOnstrances, per
sists in the violation of the law can no
longer pretend to be acting in a friendly
spirit. and when friendship has ceased it
is only an evidence Of weakness and
hypocrisy to pretend that it still exists"
Mr.. Root asserted that the entire basis
1f the community organization of ma
tinns upon which the structure Of inter
national law IS based, has been put at
issue in the present war. He continued:
The principles OF action upon which
the war was begun involved q repudia

eminent officials who went to Using

arrived today. They state that the
japanese were not giving good pro-
lection to them while they were So

in a statement urged the officials to
remain in Peking, as he does not eX.

Republican troops are now within

The situation in Human since the
two divisions went over to the repub-
