Listen, World!
Bv Elsie Robinson

Afish, unkind, disloyal or silly
human being, of either sex, rate
wreaths because she or he has
become a parent? The answer is
they don't. We can and should
respect the institution of Mother
hood and Fatherhoood-but we
degrade the whole relationship IL
we honor the individual mother or
father whose record isn't worthy.
Time was when sentimental
custom bound us so tightly that
we we're unable to analyze these
matters. A parent might be, and
frequently was, a completely
poisonous pest, but you'd never
guess it from the kow-tows. Now,
in this as in every other human
relationship, the individual must
qualify. Or else!
And what a grand change 1t is
though terribly tough on our
human egotism. There is moth
ing more demoralizing to any
person in any position than to
grant him respect and considera-
ton, unless and until he has
earned it. There is nothing that
ages us as quickly, or turns us
as swiftly and completely into a
public nuisance.
LOGICAL
No practice in history was re-
sponsible for as much cussedness
as the notion that we should re-
spect our elders, regardless, or
that the Dear Little Woman
should never be handled rough,
no matter what. I am con
vinced that Mr.. Cagney's famous
socks-on-the- jaw have done more
to make Real People out OF
females than all the suffrage
laws ever passed.
And as for being irked because
you must protect your own posi-
ton, even from the possible in
justice Of your dear oneS-for the
love of Mike, why shouldn't you
protect it? Why should other
people-with their own affairs tc
attend to-be held responsible fol
yours?
Why should you be granted any
rights" unless you can and will
protect them? And If you're sc
tender that you can't stand the
normal tuSsling Of the herd, why
did you leave the cradle?
Mean questions? No. Simply
the logical recognition of thai
right" which should be mos
precious of all to you-THF

It is indicated that the Geor-

His retirement is said to have

NARCOTICS

Using some SO pages the Fed.
eral Bureau Of Narcotics recently
published its report Of the activi-
ties in 1884 of traffickers in mar
cotics.
The pages were filled with tales
Of raids on opium dens, Of sinis-
ter Chinese smugglerS, Of doctors
and dentists who were addicts and
other grueSome details Of the drug
problem.
Parts Of it were stronger than
fiction and in one paragraph it
told of a 10-day-old infant who
was an addict.
Yet when the conclusion was
reached in this report. there was
inscribed the cryptic line:
The Government has nothing
additional of Importance to state. "

Money could be extended only
on those loan applications in the
possession Of the agency before
that deadline. Notwithstanding
that fact, thousands Of requests
are pouring in for aid.
Because Of the requests there is
some indication that certain mem
bers of Congress may seek to give
the corporation more money but
any plan of that character is
definitely opposed by Conservative
Chairman John H. Fahey. who
contends the Government should
step out of that business and re-
turn to private enterprise. He
had the same theory, however, last
year and was overruled.
At the present time, the corpora
ton has made $4,000 loans and
expects to exceed the million mark
shortly.
When that goal is achieved the
corporation probably will assume
the task of collecting the loans it
has made and subside into a
skeletonized agency unless Con
gress again takes it upon itself to
continue the organization.
Unless continuing action Is
taken, however, it is futile for per
sons to seek money from the
three billion dollar agency which
is passing into retirement as the
most gigantic corporation Of its
type ever to function.

Nnever to entangle ourselves in
the broils Of Europe; our second,
never to suffer Europe to inter.
NEEDLE with cis-Atlantic affairs.
In 1893 jefferson made it con.
vincingly clear that he visualized
an America with no European
political affiliation and in 1796,
in the farewell address, Washing.
ton declared we should have as
little political connection as pos
Sible with Europe. It is our true
policy to steer clear Of permanent
alliances with any portion Of the
foreign world.
In 1877 Adams declared, In q
message to Congress, we ought
not to involve ourselves in the
political system Of Europe, but to
keep ourselves always distinct and
separate from it.
Step by step the historical
events leading up to the declara-
ton of the famous doctrine that
was destined to become, with
Washington's policy, one Of the
two cardinal principles Of Ameri-
can foreign policy are interest
ingly set forth in this most in
forming memorandum by Mr..
Clark.
Many Misrepresentation and
distortions of the doctrine have
appeared on both sides Of the
Atlantic since it was enunciated.
These are exposed and refuted by
Ambassador Clark, who says, in
clarifying the true meaning Of the
Monroe Doctrine:
TRUE MEANING
"The doctrine does not con.
Germ itself with purely inter.
American relations. It has moth
ing to do with the relation be-
tween the United States and
other American nations, except
where other American nations
shall become involved with Euro
pean governments in arrange
ments which threaten the secur.
ity of the United States, and
even in such cases, the doctrine
runs against the European coun.
try, not the American nation,
and the United States would pri.
marily deal hereunder with the
European country, and not with
the American nation concerned" 4"
Over and over again, as Mr..
Clark shows, the United States
has invoked the doctrine as q
shield between Europe and the
Americas to protect Latin Amer.
lea from the political and terri
toriaI thrusts Of Europe.
Instead of being an instrument
of violence and oppression
against the Latin American ma
tions, the doctrine. as Ambas-
sador Clark proves by the record,
has been an unbought, freely
bestowed and wholly effective
guaranty Of their freedom, inde-
pendence and territorial integrity
against the imperialistic designs
Of Europe.
The birthday Of the Monroe
Doctrine may well be celebrated
everywhere.

FREIGHT RATES

Truck and water transportation
advocates are becoming more and
more perturbed over the Inte1"
state Commerce Commissions IA
voritism toward the railroads.
The recent ruling by the 1Co
which will permit reduction In
railroad freight rates on citrus
fruits four days a week has not
added to the comfort Of the truck
and barge operators.
BY this regulation, the ICC
permits the railroads to give
added competition to the less
wealthy and less organized opera
tors of barges and motor fleets.
Although the truck and barge
men are perturbed over the citrus
fruit rate reduction for the rail-
roads there are indications thaS
the railroad-minded ICC plans to
make additional attempts to ben@
fit the railroads to the diSadvRnS

Street Slaughter

Inst about the time that the number of persons killed
in traffic accidents in Washington during the year passed
the one hundred mark Mr. L. g. Crawford wrote letter
to the Editor of The Times which raises interesting
question in connection with the traffic slaughter
Mr. Crawford wonders if "the large majority of
citizens are kidding themselves IUhen they talk
about really Uanting traffic enforcement"
And he goes on to answer the question by stating:
81 think it is fairly clear that they do not Want
it if it interferes UUith their OUn prerOgGtiUes."
There is much meat in Mr.. Crawford's observations
It has been demonstrated that Washingtonans can't
be persuaded to make their streets safe.
Likewise it has been demonstrated that they can't be
eoerced into safe driving by the horror of the
ouence of unsafe driving evidenced by the little effect
that a death toll of one hundred has.
few months ago the Metropolitan Police Department
launched vigorous campaign against unsafe driving
It made many arrests and in most the courts fol-
lowed up the arrests with heavy punishment.
AS A RESULT, FOR A FEW DAYS THERE WAS
A NOTICEABLE IMPROVEMENT IN DRIVING AND
DECREASE IN THE NUMBER OF TRAFFIC AC-
CIDENTs.
Rut then, for some uuknOLUn reason, the rigorous
campaign WGned.
ARRESTS DROPPED AND ACCIDENTS IN
CREASED.
The courts ghtened their sentences and at least one
fudge adopted policy of taking personal bonds" OF
the accused not to repeat the offense.
Maybe the dropping of the police campaign OF en-
forcement and the support of that campaign by the
courts was due to what Mr.. Crawford believes the fact
that our citizens don't want traffic laws enforced the
enforcement interferes with their personal whims
WHATEVER THE CAUSE, THE RESULT IS DIS
GRACE TO THE CITY AND DEMONSTRATES A

The Monroe Doctrine
By James T. Williams, Jr.


December contributes to the
national calendar Of American
patriotism one Of its most i'm
portant anniversaries, the birth
day OF the Monroe Doctrine
This doctrine was enunciated by
President Monroe on December
2, 1928.
Fortunately for the present
generation of American youth
the best Interpretation of this
doctrine has been issued by the
United States Senate as a public
document. 1t ought to be in the
library Of every school, college
and university in the country
The author of this able state
paper is the Honorable j. Reuben
Clark, jr., of Utah, former Under
Secretary Of State and the worthy
successor Of the late Dwight w
Morrow as Ambassador to Mexico
Ambassador Clark's interpreta
tion Of the Monroe Doctrine has
done much to remove objection.
to the doctrine among certain
republics to the south.
These objections were largely
due to misunderstanding II
recent years of the true sig
nificance of President Monroe's
declaration.
PURPOSES

with an ordinary amount oi
common sense. It reads in par
as follows:
The doctrine thus declared BY
Monroe when reduced to it's low

colonization by any European
powers of the American cont
nentS.
Second, any attempt by the
allied powers to extend theil
political system to any portion O.

of either continent.
Third, any interposition by any
European power, for the purpose
Of depressing or controlling ii

WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS?

People don't respect my rights.
Why don't they? I wonder. I'm
hurt-mad. 1t isn't fair Surely
I have certain established rights
as husband, wife. mother, father
or child-rightS as q plain human
being. Then why don't people
remember that and act accord
ingly?
Why do people. even my nearest
and dearest, take advantage Of
me? Misunderstood me? Neg
lect and wound me? Why must
I always be on guard, even in my
own home? Why must I actually
have to force people to be nice
to me?
THEME SONG
It's all too cruel and vile! When
I strip off all the fine words and
pretty gestures, people aren't any
better than Savages-cold-bl d-blooded
savages-"each man for himself.
and the devil take the hindmost." ."
Oh, what's the use Of trying to
live in a world like this!
How often have you said that
to yourself? Countless times. So
have we all. 1t has been the
most popular human theme song
since Adam put up his bleat be-
cause Eve forced the apple on
him. And what's the answer?
Just what are our rights and why
don't people respect them?
The simple truth is-we haven't
any rights unless and until we
establish them by our own up
standing record. And people don't
respect them-becauSe we don't
respect them ourselves.
Theoretically, we have as many
powers, privileges and preroga'
tiveS as a pup has fleas. But when
it comes down to practical per
formance, we have no rights save
those we win for ourselves. Take,
for example, a mother, whose
status supposedly calls for a full
salute of all the guns. And nc
one deserves that salute more
than a wife, devoted and Loyal
mother. Yet there is q constant
lament in these degenerate days
that a mothers rights are disre
garded. Which they are. But
why?
Because the mother. herself, as
a woman, hasn't merited the res
pect or consideration which he1
position traditionally commands
She has taken it for granted that
the experience of childbirth will
automatically, entitle her to al,
the honors. And she is bitterly

coming.

sman didn't care for at all. Where
upon Emilio Aguinaldo took to
the woods, raised guerrilla band
as tough as Mr.. Kipling'S Fuzzy
Wuzzies, all full of hot sand and
ginger. For three years the little
gentleman lodged about in the
jungles of Luzon, making life
miserable for American generals
and very unpleasant for the en-
listed men.
That war Of the United States
Of America against Emilio Agui-
naldo lasted three years and cost
good many thousand lives. It
came to an end only when Agui-
naldo, himself, was trappe d
through the hard luck of a lieu
tenant. One of Aguinaldo's Off
GERS was captured in 1901 by a
patrol of General Funston'S scouts.
Among his papers there was a
letter written by the general and
being conveyed by the lieutenant
to a prominent chief in another
part of the island. The letter
asked for reinforcementS and
arms Immediately.
Until this happened, every ef-
fort to nab the little insurrecto
had been utterly futile. He was
here, there and nowhere. He
would strike like a cobra and van
ish like a ghost. And then Fred
Funston had a hunch. If Agui-
naldo expected reinforcementS and
arms, he would supply them.
With care and secrecy he as
sembled $50 native Filipino groups,
dressed them up in the ragamuf-
fin garb of insurrectos, armed
them and sent them forth as liv-
ing bait for the trap he was set
ting for the great rebel. The pre-
tended inSurrectos took with them
two American officers who pre-
tended to be captives and were at
all times treated as captives.
FUNsTON'S RUsE
This little group Of actors in
one Of the most thrilling dramas
Of the times was landed from a
gunboat on the northeast coast
of Luzon, about 100 miles from
Aguinaldo's hiding place in the
mountains. Word was sent ahead
to the general that the reinforce
ments and munitions which he
had asked for were approaching
him. A runner came back with
an order for the reinforcementS
to be haStened on to headquarters
to be received by the general.
So entirely successful was FunS.
tons ruse that Aguinaldos body
guard was utterly unprepared. A
few rifles crashed, and that ended
it. Aguinaldo became a prisoner
of Los Estados UnidaS del America
del Nord. It took years even to
cool his wrath, but eventually he
promised to be good boy and
they gave him a pension of $4,000
He started in to raise hemp in
stead Of hell and to put in his
best Iicks for Philippine independ
ence.
To Quezon goes the credit fol
political artifice. But to Aguin
aldo belongs the just distinction
of having inspired his countrymer
from the very first with a feeling
Of liberty, sense Of independence
that vital something which mus
exist to create any sort Of a ma
ton.
