It is not enough to say America is mine Japan could say China is mine England could say half the world is mine France could proclaim that Switzerland and Bel gium belong to her.
 with the existence of the league of nations the North American pro- tectorate over South American coun- tries is needed less than ever. Argen- tinism is an expression of the universal political desire to form a democratic league of nations. Monroeism is a grave imperialism which no mon- archial form of government would dare to proclaim. and the moro so because of its impotency to put 1t into practice.
 North America went into the war for the liberty of the seas but ob- tained the opposite result. It went into war to achieve tho self-determination of peoples but it has contracted itself. It pursues a policy Of asgrandisement and marches to it's decadence. unless it halts in time. And all this for lack of thinking"

for leadership he would continue las
