AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY
AND MONROE DOCTRINE

The Monroe Doctrine, as originally
announced, served as shield, which
the United States held over itself and
over weaker states on the American
continents as protection against
European interference and European
encroachment. 1t was and is a
national policy which protects North
and South America and makes for
peace on these continents.
There is real danger now, however,
that the Monroe Doctrine will We
carried so far and with so high a
hand that the real value of the policy
will be lost
Senator Knox made the following
amazing statement in his recent
speech in the Senate:-"Its (The
Monroe Doctrine) precise character,
| the extent, method and time ss;ssts
application, the means of compeA1 hg
its observance, all are matters of o9r
| high and uncontrolled VIII Land soJ
ereign prerogative. We, the United
| States, cannot answer to any one
else in respect to it. We use it when,
as, and to the extent we need it.
There can be no limitation upon it.
except our requirements, our will, and
our force of arms. Whatever security
we may need within its purview, it
must give if we ask it
That sounds like Trietschke. 1t Is
| an announcement of unlimited will,
backed by arms, to be exercised as
the United States alone determines
her own requirements to be. Such
an immoderate statement Of the Mon
roe Doctrine weakens and does not
strengthen it. 1t is an extreme
statement of the doctrine, calculated
to cause trouble and friction on the
American continents. The Doctrine
so stated is not unlike the doctrine
which Germany sought to apply to
Europe.
Senator Knox would refuse to sub
NIT to Cancellation any dispute grow
ing out of the application of the
Monroe Doctrine, whether such dis
pute were between the Unitd States
and an American state or between
; the United States and non-Ameri-
can state. On the American CONT
nent the arbitrary will Of the United
States backed by force is to prevail
J The other nations agree, in the Gov
enant of the League of Nations, tc
submit to Cancellation all nom -justici-
able disputes; that is, those which
grow out of questions of policy. Is
the United States to demand that shG
alone be relieved from such obliga
ton and on the ground that, wher
| her interests are involved, her abso
lutte will shall prevail? How does thi!
differ from the German position il
Europe?
: The fact is that the Monroe Doc
trine now that it has been recognized
in the Covenant of the League of Ma
ions is adequately protected.
1t is such pronouncements as tina
of Senator Knox and not the wis
provision in the Covenant of th
: League of Nations which threaten tn
D usefulness of the Monroe Doctrine

SAVING HABITS
TAUGHT us BY
WORLD WAR

One of the things which this
country will bring out of the war
is an increased interest in secu-
rites by people who never before
considered such investment, says
Fl. H. Windsor, in Popular Mech
auichs Magazine. The small in
vestor formerly thought of bonds
and stocks only in terms of thou
sands, wholly beyond his reach,
and as entirely belonging to ba-
nks and men of wealth. The war
savings stamps. and the govern
ment bonds of $50 denomination
up, have notonly encouraged tn
rift, but have opened the eyes of
the multitude to the fact that to
be a bond owner does not require
a kings ransoml Now we have
some 20 million bond holders,
and where formerly only | per-
son int was thrifty, now 5 out of
erery Z "a ayers. We do not
measure 9p to ths sterS thrift
ness Of the French, who. by ex-
treme economy, paid off the war
indemnity which the Franco-Pr-
ussian war occasioned, in an in
crediblp short time. But proper
tionately we have made a good
start, for we have from the be-
gining been a national wholesale
wasters because our resources
of every kind were so enormous.
Some were even ashamed to save
and thought it smart to spend
lavishly as fast as they earned.
This condition permeated the en-
tire land. We may we'll take ge-
Inuine pride in a good start on the
road to sound common sense and
thrift. The very act of saving
increases self-respect, The flow
cry speeches of a thousand ora
tors in more than a century are
forgotten, while these words OF
wisdom by Benjamin Franklin
live on:
Save a little of thy income, anC
thy hide-bound pocket will soor

DECIDES AS TO
CHESTERFIELD ROAD
New Hampshire Highway Commissioner
Submits Decision to Council, Which
Takes No Action.

State Highway Commissioner Everett
of Concord, n. H., yesterday afternoon
submitted to the governor S council his
decision as to the route of the state
highway from the four corners near the
stone house in Chesterfield to the Brat
tleboro line at the suspension bridge
The council, however, on account of so
MANY other matters under consideration
took no action in the matter, but it is
expected that the commissioner deci-
sion will be either approved or disap-
proved early next week. Until then the
commissioner is giving out no informa-
ton as to what his decision is. Opinion
is divided in Chesterfield and Keene as
to whether the Chesterfield Centre route
or the Wheeler mill route will be select
ed.
The recent hearing on this matter sug-
gests the early designation of the road
from the Contoocook valley road from
Concord, as it is a part of the cross
state road from Portsmouth to Brattle-
boro Sentiment appears to be very
strong among those using motors for
business or pleasure that a way should
be found if possible to insure its i'm
provement just as speedily as possible.
In fact it has frequently been asked if
| this season cannot be made to eliminate
| difficulties in some of the unimproved
| portions, and there is an evident desire
to avoid, if possible, such slow progress.
owing to lack of cooperation, as has
characterized the building of the Mon.
| adnock road.
Cheshire county residents feel that
| Cheshire county IS in position to get
| her share of this cross-state line into
very good condition for summer travel
this wear, especially if some of the mar
row places where strangers are likely
| to get into trouble can be trimmed out
and made easier for those not familiar
with them to negotiate Turnouts in
sight from either end of narrow sec
tion are some times a big help to all us
/ ing a road only partially improved. Mel
1 son, Sullivan and Roxbury can get their
| portions into very good shape and
| Chesterfield will do so. Keene intends
to have no places not negotiable for
motorists while the travelling conditions
are fair
| The critical point lies over the height
of land in Antrim and Stoddard. Here
| Cheshire county has section in its
! charge, to help the latter town. and
! 1Tillsboro county might well give sim
| liar aid to Antrim. And the question
now to be looked up is whether or not
with this road designated as part of
the main state highway connecting the
| coast and the White mountains with the
Molly Stark Green mountain trail from
! New lork and the West, it will not have
become sufficiently important to make
a government aid project of enough
magnitude to get substantial and early
assistance. It is understood that infu
entail parties, interested in the genera
/ good roads movement in New Hamp
shire are looking into this matter an6
a decision may be reached before yer,
long.

WOMAN EDITOR PUT
IN JAIL FOR LIBEL
Her Husband Also Indicted IN Hot Po-
litical Campaign in
Kentucky.

LEXINGTON, KY, June 13.-For the
first time in Kentucky s history wo-
man editor has been sent to Jail. Her
husband was sent with her. The epl-
sode is one of the most sensational in
the hottest political campaign In years
in this state.
A. NJ. Herndon and his wife, Eliza
beth editors of the Russellville Mes
seneer. were indicted jointly for Grim
inal libel. They refused to give bond
and Imprisonment followed. Later they
gave bond and were released. Mrs.
Horndon then tainted, but soon recov-
cred and went at once to her desk in
the Messenger office.
Frank NJ. Logan, another editor of the
paper. also was indicted on the same
charge, but he was in Lexington. He
saws he expects to be arrested when he
reaches home, as the warrants name the
three editors.
The Messenger, which is conducted by
the three persons named, printed an edi
torial Nav l denouncing machine poll
ties and referred to members of th'
wealthy and powerful Rhea family, on
of whom, Thomas, was candidate for TIT
! Democratic nomination for governor. /
is asserted that as result of the Mes
senger charges Rhea withdrew from tn
race. The editorials also charged Ger
tain influences in the country with wink
ing at fraudulent election practices.
The indicted editors say they will
keep up their fight and edit their pape
from jail if necessary.
