MERRY -CO -ROUND' REvEALED k ROOSEvELT'S NEW MONROE
 DOCTRINE TWO YEARS AGO
Drew Pearson and Robert S. Alen Authors of NatiOn- aIIy.Read Column Announced Policy Put Fora
 ward This Week Way Back in l936

President Roosevelt's new Pan- American policy of common defense axainst aggressors, announced this week in the midst of the Na1 crisis, was fully revealed two years ago by Drew Pearson and Robert &. Allen in The Waterbury Democrats daily column, THE WASHINGTON MERRY-GO-ROUND.
 On November 30, 1886, on the eve of the conference in BuenoS Aires which the president attended in person, Pearson and Allen wrote:
 ''The greatest accomplishment Roosevelt wants to put across at BuenoS Aires is not on the agenda
 |. It Is the enlargement of the Monroe doctrine. Under this plan all Pan-Americans, not the United States alone, would unite to pre- vent aggression from Europe and Asia"
 This was revolutionary change in U. s. foreign policy. Although the hope-for treaty did not carry at Buenos Aires, despite frequent hints by the president in his South Amer ican speeches, 1t continued to be the administrations secret objective in American policy.
 The Washington Merry Go = column made the only disclosure of this new Monroe Doctrine" until Roosevelt himself announced it on November 15, 1938-two years after Pearson and Allen broke the story.

(Cont1nued rom Page U when Judge Inglis comes here to take over the conspiracy issues. This will leave Waterbury devoid of a judge to hear civil matters unless Chief Justice Maltbie makes special arrangements.
 It has been suggested that the common pleas court sessions might be held in the city court chambers of city hall, thus leaving the regu- lar common pleas court room avail able to the civil and regular ses- sions of superior court.
 This would necessitate the assign msnt of another judges to Water bugy. Judge Inglis will be busy with city trial four days of each week, Tuesday through Friday, according to present indications.
 Civil Jury
 Civil jury trials are most pressing on the docket, none having been heard as yet this term. Those docketed for trial this month were cancelled when the conspiracy trial wAs set down here.
 Only four civil matters have been assigned for hearing during the coming week. No cases will be as- signed beyond that, as there will be no short calendar session Friday be- caslse of the holiday season.

 But the major problem confront- ing the state department was that of German refugees problem that Mfr. Roosevelt described at his press conference yesterday as most serious.
 The only specific plan announced ito grant six-month extensions on temporary visitors permits on which from 12,O0O to 15,000 Ger mans and Austrians now are resid- ing in this country was attacked by Borah.
 He expressed doubt that such visas could be extended indefinitely.
 Limit To Extensions
 Tt is my understanding" Borah said, "that there is a limit to the extensions, but certainly 1t is the spirit of the law that visitors per- mits are granted for temporary pur- poses. If they were made permanent it would violate the spirit of the law"
 Mir. Roosevelt said it was his understanding that at the end of the six months extension the visas again could be extended. He re- minded correspondents that all the 12,O0O or 15,000 visitors were not Jewish, but that many feared they would be sent to concentration camps if they were to return home. He said many of those here on vis- itors' permits were teaching ID schools and colleges.
 To send home a visitor who fears Ireprisals, Mir. Roosevelt said, would be cruel and inhumal1. Taylor Sent Abroad Another move by the state depart ment was its dispatch of Myron Q. Taylor, former chairman Of the United States Steel corporation and now head of the intergovernmental committee on refugees, to London. He plans to sail Nov. %. In announcing that he had asked Taylor to return to London, Hull said the internatioal problem could De solved only "by all governments actively participating in the search for such solutions" He declined to state whehter Taylor would propose a specific plan. There was practically no official comment on the German govern ment's order for Dieckhof to re- turn. MT. Roosevelt said he thought no comment was necessary. Hull said only that government frequent fly moved their foreign representa- tives. A
 Borah saw no particular signifi- canoe in the action, but Senator King, D., Utah, who has advocated the breaking of diplomatic relations, said there were two possible req sons.
 Might Be Contempt
 'The German government may have wanted to get Ambassador Dieckhoff's report on the American peoples reaction to German perse- cution of Jews" King said, "to learn whether sentiment is as strong as lit is pictured and how far the United States would go to help the Jews.
 "Or Hitler may again be express ing his contempt for this country and for democratic opinion"

 Raise Pay to $1,2O0
 3. "You get only $500 for two years work. My advice to you is that you increase your pay to $1,200. If it passes the General Assembly while I am governor, I will sign it.
 4. "There is report on my desk telling of the sad case of the inebri- ates. I would recommend an ap- propriation for two fine places for inebriateS one for men and one for women.
 5. There must be some way we can give the farmers of the state free electricity. It would be great thing for them and would help to build up our political parties. Let the state pay for all the electricity the farmer can use.
 Stuffed Shirts Depart
 "Now," the governor continued in somewhat more serious vein, "as we stuffed shirts depart, the question is = what are we going to do? Let's cerate stuffed shirt department to assure every stuffed shirt $500 a year to live on in luxury as I have lived in luxury on $5,O00 a year.
 '"The stuffed shirts are all going, I see, and in their places we are going. to have men and women who don't wear shirts.
 Things have moved pretty fast in the eight years since I have been governor. It seems we are in a new age. wish we might have legis- lation without reference to any politics whatsoever"
 '"This is the last time I shall prob ably address you," he concluded.

bile where two accomplices were waiting. They sped away leaving not . clue to their identity or their motive.
 The fact that they had paused to fire two more shots while they were being chased, convinced police more than anything else that they were professional killers.
 Patrolman Joseph Monahan was leaving his apartment in the build ing at the time of the shooting, and he chased the asSassins. His eight year old son, Joseph, Jr., was with him. One of the two final bullets fired at O,Hara ricocheted off the sidewalk and struck the child in the arm.
 Despite the injury to his son, Monahan ran to the street in time to fire two shots at the killers au- tomobile.
 Eight blocks away, policemen found the killers two pistols. One had been fired three times, the other four.
 It was dusk and the killers auto mobile showed no lights, hence Monahan and other spectators could give only 8 vague description of it.
 O,Hara was shot in the head and neck. His mother said he had little interest in girls, that his ambition was to get ahead in his firm. He wanted to become g branch man. aser in some city outside New York. He had come here 2 years ago with his mother and the sister, Betty, from Syracuse, where he was gradu- ated from Syracuse University in 1883.

November IS, the President for the first time used the phrase "conti- mental defense" meaning that all the nations of the Western Heni- sphere, including Canada, must be prepared to check with one another to see what was necessary to de- fend their continental solidarity against any threat from any other country.
 Pearson and Allen, two years ago, revealed that the President hoped to secure an agreement whereby, If the independence of one of the high contracting parties shall be menaced or endangered by 8 non- American state, the other contract ing parties shall consult to work out a common means of protection."-
 This week, the President for the first time conceded that some for eign powers might have imperial istice designs on the American Con- tinent.
 'Unfriendly Act"
 The Merry Col Round story of Mo- vember, 1886, revealed that Roose- welt planned to have the American powers declare it an "unfriendly act" if the "interposition of a non- American country shall infringe upon the independence of one of the high contracting parties, or limit its sovereignty, or secure a preponderant influence in its af- fairs"
 The accuracy of Pearson and AL lens inside information on the Roosevelt Administrations Pan- American policy was thus borne out in every detail, another aston ishing example of The Washington Merry Go-Round's foresight and ability to get the "lowdown" on events of vast importance.
