Less than week before he
died. Theodore Roosevelt told rae
that under any league OF nations
we must clearly reserve our abso-
lutte control Of immigration. and
tina, we mus, save the Monroe doc
trine untrammcled by foreign inter-
ference.
You viii recall that some SIX
years ago we were required to re-
peal the Panama tolls act. as n re-
ward 10 England for interceding
with the Japanese in our behalf.
Suppose then that we favored
American ships ut Panama and one
OF the powers charged that under
Article XII. our action threatened
good understanding" The council
could decide, first. under that same
Article XII. that our Panama policy
and management did threaten
good understanding and then.
under Article XIV. that our Pana-
ma policy was not solely within
the domestic Jurisdiction of Ameri-
ca. They could then proceed TO In
terfere In our management OF the
Panama canal and regulate IL TO
