 CHICAGO. June Swallowing is the report of the resolutions committee of the Republican National convention. In 1861 the Republican party stood for the union. As it stood for the union of states, it stands for an united people true to American ideals, loyal to American traditions, knowing no allegiance except to the Constitution, to the government and to the flag of the United States. We believe in American policies at home and abroad.
 Protection of American Rights
 "We declare that we believe in and will enforce the protection of every American citizen in all the rights se cured to him by the constitution, treaties and the law of nations, at home and abroad, by land and sea- These rights which in violation of the specific promise of their party made at Baltimore in 1912, the democratic president and the demoratic congress have failed to defend, we will un- flinchingly maintain.
 Foreign Relations
 We desire peace, the peace of Ju- stice and right, and believe in main taining a straight and honest neutrality between the belligerents in the great war in Europe. We must perform all our duties and insist upon all our rights as neutrals without fear and without favor.
 We believe that peace and neutrality as well as the dignity and influence of the United States cannot be pre- served by shifty expedients by phrase making, by performances in language, or by attitudes ever changing in an effort to secure groups of voters. The present administration has destroyed our influence abroad and huimiliated us in our own eyes. The republican party believes that a firm, consistent and courageous foreign policy always main- tained by republican presidents in ac- cordance with American traditions, is the best. as it is the only true way to preserve our peace and restore us to our rightful place among the national conventions We believe in the pa cific settlement of international dis putes and favor the establishment oi a world court for that purpose.
 Mexico
 We deeply sympathize with the foreign nation of Mexico which fol three years have seen their country devasted. their homes destroyed, theil fellow citizens murdered and their wo men outraged. by armed bandits of des peradoes led by self seeking, con scienceIess agitators who then tenn porarily successful in any locality hav' neither sought nor been able to restor order.
 We express our horror and indigna tion at the outrages which have beel and are being perpetrated by thes bandits upon American men and wome who were or are in Mexico by invita- ton of the laws and of the goVernmen of that country and whose rights t security of person and property ar guaranteed by solemn treaty obliga tions. We denounce the indefensib, methods of interference employed b this administration in the critical af fairs of Mexico and refer with sham to it's failure to discharge the duty c this country as next friend to Mexico it's duty to other powers who hay relied upon us as such friend and it duty to our citizens in Mexico, in per hitting continued of such condition first by failure to act promptly an firmly and second, by lending it's ir fluence to the continion of such cond tions through recognition of one ( the factions responsible for these out rages.
 We pledge our aid in restoring ord' and maintaining peace in Mexico. W promise to our citizens on and near Ol border, and to those in Mexico, where ever they may be found, adequate ar absolute protection in their lives, libe ty and property.
 Monroe Doctrine
 We reaffirm our approval of u Monroe Doctrine and declare it's mail tenance to be a policy of this countr essential to it's present and futu peace and safety and to the achiev ment of it's manifest destiny.
 Latin America
 We favor the continuance of r publican policies, which will result drawing more and more closely t commercial, the financial and soci
