Backers of Freedom

While we have not been willing to
assume any general attitude of cru
sading toward other nations, and
realizing that institutions can not be
bestowed but must be adopted have
left them for the most part secure in
their right to work out their own
destiny, yet we have always been
willing to encourage and assist, in so
far as we could in harmony with in
ternational law and custom, other
people in securing for themselves the
benefit of these principles and ideals.
In that conflict between freedom and
depotism, which~is as old as human
ity, and which constantly recurs in
one form or another, both among our
selves and among other people, it
has always been the policy of this
Government to extend it's sympathy
and, ia so far as it lawfully could,
it's support to the side of freedom.
These are some of the standards
which it has been the policy Of our
Government to support among its
people at home and in its dealings
with other nations. While it is well.
established international law that we
have no right to interfere in the
purely domestic affairs OF other ma
tons in their dealings with their
own citizens, it is equally well
established that our Government
has certain rights over and certain
duties toward our own citizens and
their property wherever they may be
located. The person and property
of a citizen are a part of the general
domain of the nation, even when
abroad. On the other hand there is
q distinct and binding obligation on
the part of self-respecting govern
