Senator Lodge. chairman Of the
committee on foreign relations, sup

Senator Lodge cited as an instance
Of this the action of the conference on
the Monroe doctrine. He said that is
as much as England had chosen to
interpret for herself the Monroe doc
trine,. which is entirely an American
question. it is quite in order and en-
tirely courteous for the United States
to make suggestions upon some other
international question.
Senator Lodge refuted with great
earnestness the suggestion that the
Monroe doctrine is q regional under
standing. He said it never has been
It was specifically excepted at The
Hague convention. 1t has been an
American policy construed by the
United States and enforced by this
country as a measure of self-protec-
ton. Occasionally it has been rejected
by South American countries and at
other times they have flown to it with
great enthusiasm for protection.
Senator Lodge said the Monroe doc
trine is no more a regional under
standing than would be a notice posted
by a land owner that tresspassing
