most ample development. etc"
So it appears that it Is the 20 Latin
Americans persiStiDg u elecG1ng Yankees
TO these Offices who are 10 be criticized
by the Latin Americans IN the Havana
conference. There IS absolutely no Oh
lection expressed anywhere IN the
United States TO putting II competent
Latin Americans either as presiden. or
director general Always the vice pres1-
dent has been a Latin.
But the selection is made from the
standpoint of usefulness % the union
and not for the sake OF paying . CON-
plimeut 10 the of.ce holder selected.
Not long ago. in anticipation Of the
Havana Pan-Ainerican Conference. the
principal newspaper OF Saato Domtrgo,
the Lstin Diario. declared that the
Monroe Doctrine IS now distorted oy
craft and eSolSin from meaning Amer
lea for the Americans into meaning
America for the United States % The
North But no instance has been cited
10 explain what that charge really re
serS %.
