CHAVEs COUNTY CONTENT.

"Chaves county gets q fine big
slice out of the money allotted for
roads" is the pleased announcement
made by the Roswell News. A com
mittee which went to Santa Fee to at
tend meeting of the State Highway
commission reported receiving a
square deal from the body, of which
Charles Springer is chairman. A
hard-surface road from Roswell to
the south line of the county is con-
templated.
Chaves county probably expected
to be Disseminated against in this
matter because the powers that be at
Santa Fe are not of the party that
dominates in the Pecos valley.
The government. that supplies
some Nof the highway fund, and the
state, require a high standard for
publicly aided roads.
Because of this it was decided that
superintendent in the various coun-
ties should be under state control,
that uniformity under direction of
the engineering department might be
insured.
The appointees are therefore chosen
by the governor and can be removed
for inefficiency. If the funds and
work were turned over to counties
direct. the commissioners might select
men, but the road work
would not be similar
The appointment of superintendents
is usually made in accordance with
local recommendations In few
cases only the governor has made
personal selections.

is IT SUFFICIENT?


1.-THE attitude OF the United States
as expressed by President Monroe and
known as the Monroe doctrine, with
regard 10 non-interterence with Amer
lean states by nations not of the west
ern hemisphere, is hereby accepted
and made the rule of action TO be
followed by the league of nations, I'M
less its members change TINS agree
ment by unanimous vote at some tu-
ture date"
Is that an amendment which REFERS
10 the Monroe doctrine, in the COW
enant of the league of nations? Not
at all It is what ought to have been
agreed 10 and might have been had
the American delegation gone after
such an agreement.
Having considered any sort of ref
erence to the Monroe doctrine as un-
necessary, they were forced finally by
public demand at home, to drop a
loose amendment that ignored an
American contention.
Then Colonel House submitted an
amendment and the president argued
for its adoption. Lord Roberts Cecil,
for the British. said: In the form In
which it is offered l see no objection
to it," No ballot was taken, and the
amendment was considered as adopt
ed, by order of the British chairman,
Here it is:
Nothing in this covenant shall be
construed as deemed to affect the va
lidity of international agreements
such as treaties of arbitration or re-
gional understandings like the Monroe
doctrine, for securing the mainten-
ance of peace"
Compare the amendment with the
form suggested at the commence
ment of this article.
The amendment seems, upon close
reading, not to commit anybody to
anything. 1t seems TO declare that
the status quo is not to be deemed as
affected" at all by the covenant.
America had one view and Europe
another on the Monroe doctrine, and
they never came to an understanding
or agreement. The doctrine appa-
rently is not set aside by the amend
ment nor is it endorsed as the right
thing. Europe had never admitted it
to be a square deal and regarded it as
a doctrine of force, which at times |
was obeyed under protest.
owen Meredith wrote: II know you !
lawyers can. with ease, twist words
and meanings as you please" Law
yers have nothing on diplomats, who, |
of course, are often on both jobs.
Even the learned judges of the SUI
preme court of this country often .
differ in decisions. hinged on phrase
ology and inferential features. Ger
tainly interested diplomats are not to
be relied upon in vital matters upon
which the fates of nations are con-
cerned, If ground for different views
upon covenant can be found.
We shall soon know whether Uni
ted States senators not entirely dom
mated by the president think the
form of the amendment is without
objection. or whether the senator's
think that the Monroe doctrine must
still depend upon gunboats to make
it understood and effective.

PLACE MADE FOR BEETHOVEN

There has been so great a rumpus
over in New York because Walter

a tribute to American soldiers and

lie was not Prussian and he was an
ardent republican and APOSTLE of lib

phony to Napoleon. to be sure. but to
the Napoleon of the consulate. and
when he heard that Bonaparte had
accepted the imperial crown he tore
the titlepage from his copy in dis
gusted rage He stood for nothing
that the recent German autocracy
would have permitted.
Here in Boston we hear Beethovens
immortal music at our symphony con-
eerts and raise no protests. Surely
the great composer may well be con-
sidered immune from modern hatreds.

THE WRONG BIRD.

One of Booker Washingtons best
stories-a joke at the expense of his
own races quoted in Frederick
LNnch's Zone Great Society,"" A negro
was asked by a white citizen to supply
his family regularly with turkeys
tame ones, not wild. the latter being
occasionally in the market. One week
a member of the family found some
shot in his portion of the bird. The
turkey vendor was expostulated with,
You sent us wild turkey this time;
there We're shot in it," The negro
scratched his head.

to have studied the progressive system
the United States developed for the
Philippines. The islanders have here
tofore been pacific. unprepared for
combat with Japan and are still help
less against force. But they seem
willing to struggle. even to death, in
an attempt to shake off outside mas

sympathizes with the Koreans, but
little help is likely to be extended to
them by the United States and coun-
tries now entangled with Japan, in

Senator Chamberlain at dinner in

of things has been knocked topsy-

Chase the other night, where I over
heard one lovely young matron re-
mark to an officer with whom she
had Just danced for the third time:

out of my head that we have met be-
fore. I don't doubt it in the least,
madam replied the officer courte-
ously. I was your milkman for the
past three years."
