FOREIGN POLICY

Nations
CAN'T TAKE PART
IN NEGOTIATIONS
This Country Is Not at War With Tur-
key, Therefore Should Aid In Drafting
Peace Treaty-WilI Oppose Spheres of
Economic Influence In Near East.

BOSTON, Oct. 31-The foreign policy
of the Harding administration is an
American policy aiming at helpfulness
and understanding among nations, but
not at the expNnse of entangIements ham
pering American independence, Seere-
tary of State Hughes said in an address
last night at Il Republican rally at Sym
phony hall, held to forward the campaign
Of Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, Repubi-
can candidate to succeed himself.
After paying a tribute to Senator
Lodge as chairman of the senate foreign
relations committee, Secretary Hughes
reviewed the record of the administration
III Its dealing with other countries
Il do not think the foreign policy of
the administration needs defense, but |
should like rs far as possible to have it
understood he said. 1T is not Il parti-
san policy. Would that we could keep all
our political disputes within the three
mile limit. 1t is an American policy. and
/ believe TO anyone who had the intimate
acquaintance with situations which can
only be had by those intrusIed with the
condolences of foreign relations. it would
appear to. be the only policy which
properly serves American interests.
This administration is untangling the
skein which it received. The result is
Il restored confidence and prosperity, a
better understanding, and an enhanced
influence. may venture to say that two
years ago few would have believed that
the measure of progress was possible that
has actually been attained under the lead
ership of President Warren G. Harding"
Beginning with the signing of the peace
treaties with Germany and Austria
Hughes sketched the achievements of the
administration in the field of interna-
tiOnal affairs to the present situation in
the Near East OF that he said -
AS we are not at war with Turkey,
We are not appropriately parties to the
peace negotiations which are about TO
take place While we have American
interests to protect, these are not asSoci--
ated with the political ambitions of Euro
pean powers which have made the Near
East a checkerboard for diplomatic play.
We do not propose to connect ourselves
with these rivalries, as such a connection
would only confuse our aims with those
Of others and obscure our clear and SIM
pie purposes. What we desire does not
involve the slightest injury To others. and
we claim the protection of American in
terests at every place from whatever
sovereignty may be in charge. We trust
that i'm the interest of freedom of port
unity there will be no endeavOr to parcel
out spheres of special economic intlu
ench. IF we avoid the conflicting rival
ries in which we have no proper part and
hold. to clear and definite American
policy we shall the more easily maintain
our friendships with other powers, foster
god will and heighten, rather than
diminish the influence which we desire
to be helpful"

unusually stable, being little affected by
periods of prosperity or depression, and in
creasing from year 10 year with the increase

important advantage Of offering highly at
