we made certain notifications in this policy,
notably as regards the Huerta government of
Mexico and those of Central America Selling
power by force. But whatever may be the
justification which our government may claim
under the Monroe Doctrine for such acts we
submit that they do not provide any valid
precedents for denying recognition to Russia,
since the Monroe Doctrine cannot apply to
Europe.
We are indeed already granting diplomatic
recognition to-governments such as those of
Chile Spain, Portugal and Italy, which de
pend primarily upon military force and not
upon popular approval for their maintenance
in power. We also recognize other govern
ments such as those of Greece, Bulgaria, Po-
land and Hungary, where the real power of a
military dictatorship is only slightly more
disguised. The government of Russia rests
upon a firmer foundation of popular support
than those of these other countries. 1t can
not therefore consistently be refused recogni-
ton because of its revolutionary origin so
long as we have diplomatic intercourse with
these other governments.
The policy of recognizing de facto govern
ments is essentially wise, else each nation
would claim the right to pass Judgment on

Thirdly, If loans on a considerable scale
were to be made, it would be necessary to
float them on the open market and dispose
of them to the investing public. 1t would
doubtless be impossible to secure any consid-
cradle purchase of these securities unless the
investors were given reinsurance by the rec
ignition of Russia.
Such solicitude for the profits Of American

ers. We are not concerned about the gains of
American capitalists. They are quite able to
take care of themselves, and many Of them
Openly favor the recognition of Russia as a
direct benefit to their own economic interests.
Yet American labor has even greater inter-
est in this question than the capitalists, in
volving not profits for a few but employment
for thousands. Every intelligent worker can
see that large loan to Russia to finance the
purchase of American machinery would di-
rectly result in giving a bigger pay envelope
to American labor and would stimulate the
prosperity of the primary industries of the
nation

must come, and with it the recommencement
of friendly relations. 1t is simply unthink-
able that the two largest nations in the east
ern and western hemispheres should not live
on terms of good will with each other
If all these considerations should impel us
to recognize Russia, what factors in the past
have prevented us from doing So and what
is their validity? The former contention that
Russia could not be recognized because she
had no stable government and did not provide
security for life is no longer valid The Rus
sian government has been in existence for
ten years and has repealed many attacks upon
it, while life is more secure there than in some
parts of our own country. If our traditional
policy of recognizing de facto governments
be correct then surely the present govern
ment of Russia merits recognition.

Dear Comrades: I had teacher who is very
wealthy woman Her daughter has six servants in
China, and she has in the United States.
One day she said, "Im afraid that the United
States Is going to have with China. That is
all on account of Russia. If it weren't for Russia
to be in with China wouldn't have so much to
worry about. The Russians said to China, Drive
the Americans and English out of here. What do
they want here? They have territory of their own.
If they want more land they should buy it. Don't
let them seize your land and make you have gov
eminent like theirs. Fight for your land and have
a government like ours And that's why the Chi
are having such fight. l don't think that the
Russians have any right to butt in" That's what
teacher said.
But dol think that they have right to tell
that to the poor workers and farmers of China
think that the Russians have as much right to be
in China the Americans and the English have
My teacher said what she did was for her daugh-
ter's benefit, because if China has a government

American Recognition

w have tried heretofore to set forth dis
w passiOnately the economic and political
policies and problems of Russia, but we could
not regard our work as complete were we to
stop here and not discuss the most important
issue at stake between the United States and
Russia, namely, whether our government
should grant diplomatic recognition to the
government of Russia.
From the inception of the United States to
the world war it has been our traditional pol
icy to accord diplomatic recognition to any
government which has established itself and
carries on the functions of legislation and ad-
ministration. This policy was clearly stated by
Jefferson when he was secretary of state in
Washington's cabinet, in the following words
eve certainly cannot deny to other nations
that principle wherein our own government
is founded, that every nation has right to
govern itself internally under what form it
pleases, and to change these forms at its own
will, and externally to transact business with
other nations through whatever organ it
chooses-the only thing essential is the will
of the nation"
Acting upon this principle, the United
States recognized not only the revolutionary
government of France but all the revolution
airy governments IN Central and South Amer
lea which were successful in throwing off the
control of Spain. Henry Clay in advocating
the recognition of the Republic of Texas in
1886, reaffirmed this policy of recognizing all
de facto governments in the following words:
|'In cases where an old and established ma
ton has thought it proper to change the form
of it's government, the United States have not
stopped to inquire whether the new govern
ment has been rightfully adopted or not. It
has been sufficient for them that it is in fact
the government of the country, in actual OPP
Grafton"
This policy, save for slight deviation by
Secretary Seward during the Civil War, was
invariably followed until 1913 We imposed
no other conditions upon the revolutionary
governments of Europe, China and Latin
America than that they should be actually in
