MANUFACTURES AND THE MONROE DOCTRINE

Since the president indicated his willingness that America
should accept responsibility as a mandatory, under the pro-
posed league of nations, for Armenia, numerous Syrian socle-
ties have started an agitation in favor of the United States
taking supervision over Syria. If the powers cannot agree on
a European mandatory for Constantinople we will probably
be asked to assume that post as well. All Of which leads to
an inquiry-into what other corners of the earth is the sys-
tenn going to lead us?
And have you thought Of what else this leads to? There
are several countries on this western hemisphere just as much
in need of a mandatory as Armenia and Syria. Suppose 1T
should devolve. upon some of the European nations to assume
the post of mandatory there-what then becomes of our cher
ished Monroe doctrine? Under this doctrine we have already
assumed such responsibilities in Haiti, in Nicaragua and the
Dominican Republic. The Monroe doctrine has stood as our
protection against European intrigue for nearly a hundred
years. Who knows how long the proposed league of nations
will endure if created? Many a league" has gone to pieces
since the Monroe doctrine was born, including the "Holy Al
lance" which was responsible for its birth.
Some of the champions Of the league as proposed contend
that the Monroe doctrine is not touched. Mr.. Wilson is nom
cornmittal, while both French and British statesmen and jour
naists contend that the doctrine of Monroe is surrendered
when the constitution of the league is adopted. Who is right
and who is wrong? Somebody is fooled.
If this doctrine is to be preserved, then in Gods name
and the name of all that is honest and frank, is there no Ian
guage in the dictionary that will preserve it? If the proposed
constitution cannot be made to read the same on both sides of
the Atlantic the senate should waste little time in even dis
cussing it.
And if American manufactures are a good thing for Europe
and Asia and Africa, what about European manufactures over
here?
Anyhow, let's discuss it regardless of ~censorships and
the decree of silence.

And here we have the censorship again. Mr.. Lanooh
saws that Paris has not been permitted to know what mas Deen
said against the abandonment of the Monroe ooctrihe. ~
how is Mr.. Landon to have the censorship abolished as long as
Mr.. Burleson controls the cables?
But while the cables may be controlled and the censor
ship of Mr.. Creel may work overtime the mails are carrying
the newspapers and Paris will know, if it does not already
know, that more than enough senator's are already on record
as opposed to the league constitution as drafted to prevent Hs
ratification. According to Mr.. LandOn and numerous other
Paris has been getting only the views our Gel
ebrated Mr.. Creel desired it to have concerning the sentiment
of America, while we on this side have come to think OF the
peace conference as a meeting in which all is harmony, in
which one mine controls and all the rest obey and applaud.

ONE MAN CURED OF SOCIALISM

1t is possible that the Bolsheviks are doing some good in
the world by showing us to what a state things are reduced
under that kind of social regime. 1t has had that sort of an
effect upon at least one man who became a socialist twenty
five years ago and is now in a repentant mood. Writing of
his own birth in wisdom, he says:
Some twenty-five years ago l used to train with
the socialists and wanted to start the ball rolling by
taking over the public service corporations and oper-
ating them in the interests of all the people instead of
a few Wall street gamblers. But my socialist friends
said, "Nay, nay, no piec ameal socialism for us. We
must rip things up the back, turn them upside down
and reconstruct the whole machinery of production
l said: when you do that we will have the chaos of
anarchy, not socialism" That gang of traitors in
Russia has fully proved my contention. /.
What has been done in Russia shows the actual fruits of
any such a system. It is a great thing to talk about Selling
things and running them to suit ones self, but it is quite an
other thing to practice. What is done by committees is not
always well done. A factory that seems to be pouring out
wealth can soon be so reduced that it cannot pay out even a
dollar in wages OF in profits.
There are factories in Russia that at one time employed
thousands of men that are now absolutely idle. The Bolshe-
wiki took them from the owners and operated them "by the
people" through committees, and it did not take long to kill
them and to gut them.
Mr.. Bryan, having declared the league admirable, throws
the whole thing into more doubts, for what that ex-states-
approves must have a crazy patch in it.
Business as usual" seems to be the order of the day.
We have a few disturbances and a few halts and bitches and
but as sure as the sun shines we are going ahead
in this country. We are going to do business enough to pay

This implies a flat refusal of at least one nation to COM
ply with the proposed mandates" even before they have
been formulated. If nations are doing that now, what will
they be doing ten years from now?
According to the Telegraph, England yielded to the plan
for the government of the colonies by the mandatory system
after it had insisted on what it wanted for the colonies. The
statement follows:
The principle of a mandatory system for the former Ger
man colonies and for the countries released from Turkish mis-
rule came before the British imperial cabinet about the middle
of December, and it was then unanimously decided that the
British delegation at the peace conference should be instructed
to accept this principle for all territories and populations en-
trusted to the care of Great Britain provided the special inter-
eNs of Australia, New Zealand and South Africa in the ter
ritories adjacent to them yer protected.
England looks after her own and that is what we should
do with our own Monroe doctrine. And regardless of MIR. Viii
son we here predict that the United States senate will insist
upon that as our right just as strongly as England insisted on
exceptions for its colonies as their rights.
On the subject of the Monroe doctrine and its abandon
ment there is little difference Of opinion around the confer
ence, according to Mr.. Wilson. And according to Perclval
Landon, another writer, in the same newspaper, the doctrine,

And Mr.. Dillon tells us that these comments are fairly
of what is felt under the surface--what is really in
mems hearts and minds. He suggests that they are going
through the forms of acquiescing in these things in order to
have them out of the way for others which over there are re-
garded as really vital.

When one reads of these disappointments of the French.
one has for that country a feeling that is akin to that he had
when the German military brute first placed his spiked heel
on the fair body of that nation, and when he turned loose his
looters and his rapers, his men with torches to burn and axes
to cut down and dynamite to blow up and gases to poison all
manner of life.
