the character indicated.
An institution Of that character IS
NEEDED in Iowa. Toledo is an excellent
location for such an institution and
the college and the grounds are an
item to be considered.
With al due consideration and
praise for the manner in which the re-

Quoted. the fact remains that they are
reform schools and carry stigma that
requires years to efface. Il is hard 70
difterentiate between the unfortunate
who are sent TO those industrial
schools and those who have been sent
there to be reformed.
Unfortunate and neglected children

And Toledo would be as good a place
to locate such a school as any on the

MEXICO AND THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

Mexico. sore at being left out of the
game in Paris Announces that she never
did recognize the Monroe doctrine and
never will.
The Mexican understanding Of tho
Monroe doctrine apears to be very
similar to that Of many Americans
which is that the Monroe doctrine as
sumes a pTotectorate over the coan-
tries OF this hemisphere. II does not.
Mexico has nothing to do with The
Monroe doctrine as to recognition or
reputation. 1t is not directed at or
addressed 10 Mexico or any other
country in this half Of the world but
at and to those on the other side.
There can be no argument between
this country and Mexico over the Mon
roe doctrine. 1t doesn't tell the coun-
tries of this hemisphere what they
may or may not do but il warns those
Of the other half of the globe Of Am
erican dispieasuTe and probable Amer
lean interference with any attempt
they might make TO extend their sys-
TEN to any portion Of this hemisphere
It gives its own reasons for the warn
ing. Such attempts are considered as
dangerous to our peace and safety"
So Mexico has no more to do with
it's recognition than she had with its
PRONUNCIATION. Outside of the United
States no nation on this hemisphere
has anything to do with it's recognition.
it is not addressed TO them but to
the powers apart from this half of the
world

heavy force to the border. 1t did not
directly invade Mexico to eject the
Austrian who had led a French army
there but there Is no doubt that it
would have so had it become neces
sary. As it was hundreds of the Off
GERS released by the close of the civil
var served aaginst Macmillan. The
result was that the French armies
were withdrawn and the adventurer
shot by a firing squad. Then when
Germany made her bluff at Venezuela
the interference OF the United States
was prompt and effective.
So 1t does not matter particularly
whether Mexico likes the Monroe doc
trine or not. II was not enunciated and
is not maintained as the doctrine of
any country except that of the United
States. 1T has nothing to DO with the
Sovereignty" of Mexico. And it Is of
small Importance whether Mexico
agrees with or denies it. An attempt to
turn Mexico over to a foreign system"
would be argued out, not with Mexico,
but with the System" attempting to
establish itself on any portion Of this
hemisphere"

BOlsheviki Plot
in East Indies

The Hague, Nov. 26.-fhe Dutch
East Indian government has reveal
edxWhat is alleged to have been an
extraordinary bolshevik plot in Java
and other Dutch East Indian colonies
under the guise of anti-Japanese
Boycott.
Chinese bolsheviki, it is stated,
launched a campaign advising the
East Indian Chinese not to trade
with the japanese merchants nor to
deposit their funds in Japanese
bank.
Agitation was conducted advocat-
ing the patronizing of certain finan-
cial institutions conducted by Chin
csc. These latter, according to the
Netherlands government agents, were
found to be bolshevik sympathizers
who had planned to use the funds
thus secured to carry on Bolshevik
propaganda in the Far East.
A press telegram from Makassar,
Java, today announced that the boy
colt had been ended.
