THE MONROE DOCTRINE

TT is an unusual page of news which does not
1 contain some reference 10 the Monroe doc
trine" Tho volumes have been written about II,
the essence of this important principle OF Ameri-
can policy can be condensed in a few paragraphs.
1t begins as far back as the famous farewell
address of Washington which was delivered in
September, 1896. Washington then announced as
fundamental principle of American foreign pol
icy that this country will refrain from meddling in
the political affairs of Europe.
The converse of this-that the United States
will not tolerate intervention in American affairs
on the part of European nationS-waS made the
second principle by President Monroe in his cele-
hrated message to congress, December ;, 1928.
This message was called out by the probability
that the 'Tholy alliance" league of four Euro
pean powers, would endeavor to control the
Spanish countries of South America.
America for Americans is the gist Of the
Monroe doctrine.
AS President Monroe laid them down, the
two principles read: First, that the American
continents, by the free and independent condition
which they have assumed and maintain, are hence
forth not to be considered as subjects for future
colonization by any European powers"
Second, referring TO the Spanish-American
states which had achieved their independence,
that 1--WE could not view any interpostion for the
purpose of depressing them or controlling in any
other manner their destiny, by any European
power. in any other light than as the manifesto
