measures which will help put Cuba
on its feet economically, and at the
same time will be of advantage to our
own economic position. We should
not experiment to the extent of in
ducing Cuba to produce a huge sugar
crop to be dumped on our shores with
disastrous effects on our own beet
sugar people in the Middle West be-
cause, after all, our first duty Is to
our own producers. The cry for this
kind of assistance to Cuba comes al
most equally from our own sentiment
talists, who are always more conscious
of suffering abroad than st home, and
from the bankers who have made
large investments In Cuban sugar.
Since President Wilson used recog-
ton as q weapon to secure the kind
of government he wanted in Mexico
there has been altogether too much
of tendency to consider it as a tool
to force our own ideas on other ma
tions. President Hoover and Mr..
Stimson tried to break away from this
tendency, to revert as fully as possible
to the older, simpler, truer idea Of
recognition, as may be seen from
their immediate recognition Of new
governments In South America.
Mr.. Hull has taken another step
forward through his recognition Of
the revolutionary but stable and good
government of Salvador. One might
well believe that the government was
moving toward q wholly reasonable
attitude were it not for its confusing

discard. We recognized Cespedes and
his government because we liked him
and his professed principles. We re-
fused to recognize Grau San Martin
because we did not like either him or
the principles on which his govern
ment was founded.
As soon as Grau was succeeded by
Mendieta we hastened to recognize,
not because we were more certain that
the new government really represent
ed the wishes of the Cuban people,
not because we felt that it had good
chance Of being permanent, not be-
cause it had agreed to observe its
international obligations-but because
we liked it better and thought it would
be easier to do business with Men
dieta than with Grau.
Return to Jefferson.
The episode or series of episodes
seem to me to indicate that we should
get back as soon as we can to the
first principles of our recognition
policy. Let us take JefferSon's dictum
and take 1t whole, adding to it only
the corollary made necessary by mod
ern conditionS-that a new govern
ment will live up to its obligations in
international law-then let us act ac-
cordingly Anything else Is dangerous.
When the President and his advis-
ers set themselves up as the judges
of what other nations want, of what
is best for other nations. they put
themselves in a very vulnerable posi-
ton.
After all, we do not have to recog-
nize any government at any time. We
do it in order that trade may be car
ried on with the least possible fric-
ton; in order that American citizens
and American interests in foreign
lands may be properly protected. It is
a convenience It implies neither ap-
proval nor disapproval
Another thing to be remembered Is
that recognition of new government
involves no commitments. economic or
otherwise, except the obligation to live
on good terms with the government.
The American press has recently
been pointing out that now that we
have recognized the Mendieta govern
ment in Cuba we are under obligation
to support it by lowering the duty on
sugar or by some other means. This
is pure nonsense, in so far as assist
ance to Cuba has anything to do with
the question Of recognition.
Mendieta Assisted.
1t is true that non-recognition was
probably largely responsible for the
fall of the Grau government. 1t is
equally true that recognition will as

though it certainly will not prevent its
fall if the Cubans are dissatisfied.

HIDES SELF IN FEAR
OF HARM BY SPOUSE
Wife Of shipbuilder Apologies
to Court in Hearing on Rule
Of Contempt.
BY the Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS, February 81
Mrs. Thelna Agnes Goertz Cox, wife

Mrs. Thelma Agnes Goertz Cox, wife
of George M Cox, wealthy New Or
leans and Chicago ship builder, tes-
titled yesterday in her contempt hear
ing that she had hidden away for
several months because she feared
violence at the hands of her husband.
The testimony was taken before
Judge Hugh c. Cage in Civil District
Court on a rule of contempt against
Mrs. Cox for not carrying out court
order to permit Mr.. Cox to visit their
son at stated intervals pending trial
of their divorce suit.
Mrs. Cox apologized to Judge Cage
for not complying with his order. She
said she had been residing under as
sumed names at hotels here and in
Mobile, Ala
Judge Cage dismissed 8 Of the
10 armed guards he had appointed
recently to protect Mrs. Cox after the
court had been told that her husband
had Threatened to kill" her and had
surrounded himself with four armed
bodyguards.
Judge Cage listened to the testi-
mony of two youthful self-styled
"bodyguards" of Cox, who admitted
that they had carried guns, but who
said that Cox went unarmed and
had only handled a pistol twice"

international cooperation Is con-
cerned. I hope it may lead to a re-
vision Of the Central American treaty
on the subject, or that at least the
United States will withdraw from
further participation. Recognition
should not be used as lever to en-
force the desires of the American
Government.
There remains one further definite
departure from American practice
the declaration, at the time of the
Manchurian trouble, that the United
States would not recognize territorial
or other changes brought about by the
use of force. This declaration would
have remained an idle gesture If 1t
had not been adopted as the policy of
all the nations assembled in the
League of Nations. Being practically
universally accepted, 1t has become a
part Of the body of international law.
1t was designed, frankly, to make ag-
gression less attractive. Whether it
will be effective remains to be seen.
The doctrine, should it be MAIN
tained by the world, might well be
very useful as a deterrent to aggressive
action but 1t must never be too rigid.
There must always be exceptions, the
possibility of change after the event.
Cuba Test Case.
OF course, nothing of this sort was
involved in the case of Cuba, where
there was no external aggression. We
were bound by no treaty except that
under the Platt amendment we could
intervene If this step became neces-
sary to protect human life. Cuba there
fore should be test case In the appli-
cation Of the traditional American
practice. President Machado was put
out. Little that is good can be said for
him except that he kept some sort Of
order in the island. Nevertheless, his
remaining or not remaining as Presi-
dent was Cuba's business, not ours.
Cespedes succeeded Machado as
President. He was instantly recognized
This was probably inevitable. since
American influence had had much to
do with putting him in. 1t may we'll
have been, also, that the Cubans'
knowledge that we were strongly back
Of him was one reason why he lasted
only three weeks.
Cespedes was succeeded by Grau
San Martin, whose government was
not recognized by the United States in
spite of the fact that it was much
more representative of the wishes of
the Cuban people. The traditional
policy of the United States seems to
have been thrown completely into the

may be jeered at as fantastic appre-
tensions. But this Is largely why
revolutions succeed. Only those who
promote them, or who IS students

the future steps. BY the vast major

Of the revolution, chips on the tide,
the concluding steps are not under

time the revolution has gained 30
much momentum that it Is impos-

Each Step Fantastic.
The future steps here suggested are
not more fantastic than the past
steps were before the past steps were
accomplished. Who, five years ago,
would have dreamed that the Federal
Government at Washington would
one day pay cash to farmers to pillow
under one row Of cotton out Of every
four? And who one year ago would
have dreamed the day would come
when an agent Of the Government
would appear on q farm and tell
the farmer he must raise so much
cotton and no more, on penalty of

Revolutions Fewer.


Since these Central American revo-
lutions were almost invariably due to
the ambition of individual political
leaders, and since under the treaty it
became almost impossible for these
leaders to capitalize the results Of
their Vaccinations to their own ad-
vantage, the treaty undoubtedly has
reduced the number of revolutions.
On the other hand, it has by no
means always worked to the benefit of
the country concerned. There is such
thing as popular uprising against
tyranny or misrule, and the treaty pre-
vents this as surely as it deters the
ambitious political leader. Further
more, the participation Of the Amer
lcan Government gives this country a
preponderant influence in the des-
TIMES of the Central American ma
tlonS. AS in the case of Mr.. Wilson
and Mexico, it gives the President too
wide a latitude, tempts him to Judge
between the personalities and promises
OF the different candidates And even
If he be absolutely neutral and follow
faithfully the lead OF the Central
American republics, he can and will
always be accused of unfairness.
There was revolution in Salvador
three years ago. One Martinez seized
the power. He called for general elec-
tions and was elected chief of state.
Under the Central American treaty he
could not be recognized. He proved
to be good man for the position and
his administration was highly bene-
f1cial to Salvador. Costa Rica re-
nounced the treaty in 1882 on the
ground that it was "fruitless and pro-
ductive Of embarrassing situations. +"
Costa Rica thereupon recognized the
Martinez government.
Others Follow,
Only few weeks ago the other Cen
trail American governments, undoubt-
edly after consultation In Montevideo
or in washington with representatives
Of the American Government, recog-
nized the government of Salvador, and
their action was followed by similar
action on the part Of the United States.
