Ry the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
LONDON. December 1.-Comment-
ing on the Hughes speech at Phila-.
delphia, the Times refers to the
American Secretary's allusion to the
South American states with the as
sertion that his contentious seem
reasonable to outside observers. il
"The league of nations and the
principles on which II rests" says
the Times. meet the wishes of these
states more fully than any other
association or any other policy. but
pan-Americanism and the Monroe
doctrine, as expounded by Mr..
Hughes, are no more incompatible
with them than are the British en-
pire and the principles it embodies,
The Monroe doctrine, like all broad
policies loosely expressed, Is open to
abuse. but without the firing of
shot it has saved South America
from invasion for 100 years. That.
is Its abundant justification to the
mind and conscience of the world"

with our independence and general

Generally. our policies toward
Europe may thus be summarized:
We are still opposed to alliances. We
refuse to commit ourselves in ad-
vance with respect to the employ
ment OF the power Of the United
States In unknown contingencies. We
reserve our judgment to act upon
occasion as our sense OF duty per-
mits. We are opposed to discE,nina-
fair and equal opportunities in man
dated territories, as they were ac-
quired by the allies through our
aid. We desire to co-oerate accord
ing to our historic policy in the
disputes which embraces the policy
Of judicial settlement Of such ques-
tions az are justiciable. 1t is our
purpose to cooperate in those varied
minimize or prevent those evils
which can be met adequately only
by community of action.
"In short, our cooperation as an
OF the aims Of peace and justice has
always been and still is distinctive
feature of our policy.
There Is plainly no inconsistency
between these policies and the Mon
roe doctrine. Our position as
world power has not affected It. The
question is whether that doctrine is
still Important under changed con-
ditions. The answer must be in the
affirmative"
Policies Are Outlined.
So far as the Pacific and far east
were concerned, Mr.. Hughes said. the
United States had developed "the
policies Of "a the open door. CD the
maintenance OF the integrity Of
China, (3) cooperation with other
powers in the declaration OF common
principles. tD cooperation with other
powers by conference and consulta-
tion in the interests of peace, (5)
