MONROE PLAN
in THE COVENANT
Amendment Not Necessary Says
Mr.. Gregory AS It Might Be
Cause of Dispute
AMERICAN PRINCIPLES
FULLY DEFINED
Former Attorney General Says
The Western Hemisphere Is
Amply Protected By the
League of Nations.

Paris, March %, Saturday (By the
Associated Press).-Thomas w. Greg
ory, former attorney general Of the.
United States. who is advising the
peace conference commission on the
league of nations with reference to
legal phases of proposed anaendenlnts
TO the covenant, takes the view that IT
is not necessary to introduce specific
amendment affirming the Monroe doc
trine. He holds that the doctrine is
sufficiently protected b. the instru-
ment as it stands, but as a matter OF
expediercy he sees no objection to-
introducing a general provisions which
would safeguard the doctrine without
specifically mentioning it, as a specific.
mention would introduce a contro-s
versy over the specific wants Of var1-
Gus States.
Such q proviso has been drawn
but it is not yet known whether its
incorporation in the covenant will be
urged. 1t afirns in substance that
coercive measures Of the united pow
ers as provided by the covenant shall
not operate against nations OF the
Western Hemisphere unless the Unit-
ed States and other Western countries
shall approve. It is held this would
give the United States and the Vest
ern republics the final word on apply
ing collective force against nations on
that hemisphere and this in effect
affirms the Monroe doctrine.
Going beyond this general deliber-
alton, in the view Of Mr.. Gregory
and other league experts, would intro
luce wide controversy on an interpre-
tation of. the meaning of the Monroe
doctrine It is expected that discus
sion of this and other amendments
will be continued several days befere
a final decision is reached.

HOLDING DOWN The DEBT LIMIT

Under the guise of patriotism the
Leglslature passed bill to permit coun-
ties TO exceed their present deot limits
$50 that the counties may co operate
with the general policy of the United
States Government and the state gov
ernment In providing active employ
ment for labor being constantly re-
leased during this year and for such
further period required for demobiliza-
tiou." This explanation sounded so
good to the lawmakers that they put
Assemblyman Finley's bill through in
spite Of all the warnings given that it
was dangerous measure, intended to
upset the Pierson finance law.
But Governor Edge refused to be
guided by the "old-fiag and -an-approp-
Ration" pleas. Knowing that the
signing of the bill would reflect serious
ly upon the credit of every municipal
ity and county in the state, he disap-
proved the measure and sent it to the
legislative mOrgue, where it belonged.
The present law provides that the debt
limit of counties shall be two per cent.
of their ts sxable property. The act was
placed upon the statute books after
long struggle to safeguard the taxpay
ers from the burden of excessive bond
Issues. The Finley bill would have
added one-half of one per cent. to the
limit, which, in the e'of Essex Coun-
ty alone. would have permitted an In
crease of $3,5OO,0OO in its borrowing
power, and the county already has
power to borrow some 81, ,000,00 in ad-
dition to its outstanding bonds. Had
the bill been approved, a precedent
would have been established that might
have made it almost, il not quite, i'm
possible to return to the debt limit fixed
in the Pierson finance law. 1t would
have been an encourager of eXtrava-
gance at q time when the tax burden
has amounted almost to the over-the-
top point.-NeaOdrk NeeOs
