PAN-AMERIcAN SCIENTIFIC
CONGRESS LAUDS WILSON
Applauds Presidents Reference "a
Monroe Doctrine in Message to
Congress, Urging U. S. to Pre-
pare to Defend Rights Of All
American Countries.

washington, Jan. 0.-FOrmal aQ.
proval of President Wilson's refer
ences to the Monroe Doctrine and
Pan-Americanism was voted by the
International Law section of the Pan
American Scientific congress. A res
olution adopted for presentation to the
executive committee of the congress
the first recorded expression on the
subject which has been uppermost in
the minds of many Of the delegates
since they gathered here ten days
characterized the presidents Ut
terances as "a true definition of Pan
Americanism."
In it's preamble the resolution de-
clared that the words of the presi-
dent were of such importance to the
relations of the countries of this con-
tinent that we deem it opportune and
of unquestioned advantage that the
second Pan-American congress should
in some way accord them it's approx
all
Wilson 10 AppIauded.
Then 1t resolved that: "The second
Pan-American Scientific congress ap-
plauds the declaration made by the
Honorable President Wilson in his
message of December to congress,
explaining and simplifying the Mon
roe Doctrine, because it regards them
as q true definition of Pan-American-
ISM"
The president in his address pro-
claimed duty on the part of the
United States to prepare for the de-
tense not only of it's own rights, but
Of those With whom it had made COM
mon cause, and spoke Of the evolu-
ton Of tho Monroe Doctrine into "a
full and honorable association OF
partners between ourselves and our
heighb0rs in the interest Of all Amer
lea, North and South"
United In Case Of War.
Unreserved. cooperation Of the dill
ferent governments Of the two con-
tinents, even in case of war, was ad-
vocated frankly by Juan Da dos Gar
cha Kohly, Cuban minister at The
Hague. in an address before the in
ternational laws section.
"The Monroe Doctrine" said Mr..
Kohly, lis product and labor OF the
United States and the actions taken
by them give cause for the gratitude
of sister nations. 1t is beyond ques-
ton that the latter, feeling them
selves in the fullness of their pollt1'
cal development and consequently
strong in their rights and means for
action, cannot logically-nor would 1t
be convenient for the destinles OF
America-let the United States act
alone in case Of a conflict between a
European power and an American re-
public; on the other hand, they should
Join them in their action as a token
Of well understood solidarity"
An alliance of American nations to
protect the neutral rights during the
present war was urged In a paper
read by Prof. L. s. Rowe Of the Uni
11ersity Of Pennsylvania. ).

mond sis sure to change many plans,
dissolve many schemes, interfere with
many ambitions. Governor Burnquist
will have tremendous advantage in
possession Of the office, and IS too
level headed to be likely to make seri-
Gus mistakes at 50 critical time in
his career. He will be formidable
candidate in the primaries. With all
the talk. about the hyphen, everybody
knows that nationality does cut con-
siderable figure in the politics Of this
state, and must be taken into account
This may be unfortunate but it is a
fact. With three candidates for the re-
publican nomination of Scandinavian
parentage, the vote will be cut consid-
erably and perhaps let in someone
else, like Secretary Schmahl, who is
by no means a two-spot in politics.
Jim Peterson has withdrawn from the
race, and undoubtedly an attempt
will be made to pull off other candi-
dates and unite the party. Iverson
and Lindbergh, however, state that
they will continue in the contest.

are many able men, it will take

It appears that the meeting OF Ene
democratic state executive committee
at st. Paul Tuesday was warm af-
fair, inadeqhately reported in the daily
press. At one time the proposal TO-
hold a conference to select q slate Of
national convention delegates came
near being dropped. There was consid-
cradle discussion as to the actions Of
the national committeeman, in which
some former friends of his were con-
spicuous. It is reported that the de-
mocracy of the two big counties is
strongly opposed to the continuance
Of Mr.. Lynch in his position. Instead
of selling horses to the French govern

considerable field for labor in the mat

would undoubtedly have been glad to
help in this laudable work. He showed
himself in certain appointments and
in general policy. big man, big
enough to rise above fractional argu
ment, nor did he compromise his indie
pendence by what he did. He is gone
and because of this, as we'll as othel

TWO VIEWS-ONE SOURCE

Our Side Liquor Dealers organ,
Mpls.) Dec. 80: Our Side has receiv:
ed a pamphlet from Pinhead Lind
bergh on his candidacy for governor.
If anybody knows what he is writing
about send him to this office. We do
not know much about Lindbergh ex-
cept hearing him talk a few minutes
at the auditorium in St. Paul recently.
In the opinion of Our Side he is a
second Sockless Simpson. He has a
thousand complaints to make and not
a single remedy to offer. He is back
ing up bit on prohibition. It is
only a secondary matter with him.
First-now-he wants to regulate the
universe and after he finishes that job
he will come back and tackle prohibi-
tion. The fact Of the matter is he
wants to be governor. He is like Lee
was-he wants to be governor, no mat,
ter how he gets there or on what is.
sues. Lindbergh may as we'll stay in
Washington. Minneapolis, St. Paul
and Duluth will snow this guy or an
archist under at the primaries. If he
becomes governor of Minnesota on his
plan the state may as well move out
Of its boundaries. This guy is nut,
IN our opinion.
Our Side, Dec. 80: Gus Side sug-
gests to it's readers that they help
Buchanan for congress in the Sixth
district. Buchanan is all right. His
record is good. Every friend of this
journal in his district will do we'll to
give Buchanan a helping hand. He de-
serves It.
