THE MONROE DOCTRINE
(The New Prague TimeS)

To generations of youthful history
students, the Monroe doctrine was
just name for something that hap
pened a long time ago and that
seemed important at the time.
Today and perhaps tomorrow, the
Monroe doctrine is something that
touches the lives, hopes and aspira-
tons of every man, woman and child
in this western hemisphere.
Back in 1923, 1T years ago, Pres
ident James Monroe declared the
American continents closed to future
colonization by any European pow
ers. This declaration was called the
Monroe doctrine, and it has since
generally been regarded with the re-
spect and force of unwritten consti-
tutional law and international law.
For more than century, the Mon
roe doctrine has helped to safeguard
sion and ACKNOWLEDGMENT by foreign
powers and the force of authority
back of the Monroe doctrine has been
the power of the United States gov
eminent.
In the turmoil of world conflict and
conquest, it is entirely conceivable
that aggressor nations may seek to
gain foothold in the western con-
tinents and thereby bring to the
New World the hatreds, quarrels and
unceasing wars of the Old World.
Against this threat, the Monroe
doctrine stands as bulwark to safe
guard the peace and good neighborli-
ness of North and South America and
to preserve the American way of life.
God forbid that the American ma
tions may ever face the necessity of
resorting to arms to enforce the Mon
roe doctrine but may it always be
kept inviolate.

the letter is his criticism of too
many Scandinavian names on the
ballot. The letter follows:
l have received so many letters
congratulating me upon my renom-
ination that I take this occasion to
reply in a form letter.
First: Announcement of my re-
nomination was, like the announce
ment of Mark Twain's death, pre-
mature. 1 was not renominated. On
the contrary, the official canvas shows
me defeated by plurality of SOP.
For nearly three weeks the Asso-
ciated Press and United Press figures
showed me having a plurality of
about $500. Upon the published
figures began receiving congratu-
lationS.
Not until recently was 1 aware of
my defeat, and then the news came
out on the evening before the Demo-
cratic state convention. 1 have ac-
copied the inevitable with good grace,
and honestly 1 am not feeling badly.
On the contrary feel bit relieved.
1 do not have to worry about a hard
campaign and the expenditure of a
lot of money in year when things
are not looking any too darned bright
for Democratic candidate in Ne
braska. The only thing that 'gravels"
me is that was defeated by name

state tickets we have four Johnsons,
two Swansons, Jensen and Lar
soma total of eight names" out of
IA candidates. We already have three
Johnsons and two Swansons holding
executive state office.
1t has been suggested that we carve
above the entrance to our magnificent
state house the words: Swedish

l wouldn't desert the good old
American name of ''Maupin" for the
best darned political job now existing
in state or nation.
Thanks for your congratulations
(premature) and grateful therefor,
as well as continuing to cherish the
fine friendships l have made thus
far in my official existence.

A FINE INFANT"

Editor Askov American:
An expression often heard is ''Give
the devil his due" and l am using it
in connection with the item in your
last weeks 25-year-ago column re-
garding the organization of the Ker-
rick State Bank
You have E. T. Hogan as one of
the original directors. He was in
terested with Mr.. Bulls in several
of the institutions on the 500 Line,
but it was j. H. in Kerrick and l
might say he had as much to do
with the organization as any one per-
son and it is still his "baby."
We claim it is one of the best in
the state and the largest for the size
of the community of any in the state.
Prove we are wrong if you can.

WHAT WILL BECOME OF
NORWAY
Tri-County Forum)

It becomes apparent that when Hit
Ter invades and seizes a nation it is
done with the intention that it be-
comes part of his permanent empire.
He has taken Poland and Czecho-
slovakia and made them an integral
part of Germany. He has also seized
Denmark and Norway by swift move
ments of his troops. What will be
their fate?
The first thing to consider in re-
gard to the future of these countries
is, of course, the final outcome of the
war Hitler and Mussolini are waging
with England and France. If the die
tators lose, eventually these countries
will become independent as formerly.
But if the dictators win, what can
they expect?
According to reports as to how the
Hitler set-up in Norway is being car
ried out, there can be only one con-
clusion to make: Norway will be
German dependency. The first orders
to German invaders after Selling
territory is to introduce all necessary
measures to effect economic union
with the Reich. A commentator says:
THAT means, of course, that after
the dead have been buried, essential
buildings restored and public services
resumed, the foodstuffs and manu-
facturers and raw materials which
have been going elsewhere are di-
verted to Germany; that bank de-
posts, public and private, are taken
over; that German currency is intro
duced and made interchangeable
with the coinage of the country; that
rationing like that in Germany is put
into effect; and, of course, that boun-
diaries and customs barriers between
Germany and the conquered country
cease to exist.
almost the first Nazi step in any
conquered region is to ease out for
eign diplomats, reporters and COM
mercial representatives There are
three purposes in this: One is to sup
press any direct reports or observa-
tions of what is going on. Another
is to add to Berlin's prestige as the
political, commercial and news center
of all the area over which the swasti-
ka flies.
"A third is to help erase from pub
lie memory the former identity of
conquered nations-which is easier
if people in and out of Germany cease
to hear about Copenhagen, Oslo, Am
sterdam and Brussels, as they already
have ceased to hear about such for

SAFEGUARDING OUR FREEDOMS

OA'A0
minneapolis Star-JournaD
Seven members of the University of
Minnesota faculty have signed let
ter to students, published in the Min
nesota Daily, pointing out that one
of the greatest threats to individual
freedom of expression may arise from
careless and irresponsible exercise of
that right.
The point they raise is both delicate
and real. The difference between
liberty and license is Away moot.
These are days in which every be-
lever in our basic freedoms must
defend them not only by insisting on
their maintenance but also by making
sure they are not cheapened and dis
sipated by some of those who pre-
tend to hold them most dearly.
Most people do not shout about the
things they hold most sacred. Most
of those who have the deepest con-
victions do not climb onto soapboxes
to espouSe them. Most of those who
are resolved today to protect our
fundamental liberties will agree that
one way to protect them is not to
flaunt them in the faces of those who
would take them away.

more than had been bargained for,
and Russia's own interests might be-
come jeopardized.
Near German Border.
This possible consideration may
until more concrete facts are known
serve as explanation of the fact
that during the last few days Rus
sian troops have been occupying the
Baltic republics of Estonia, Latvia
and Lithuania, and that 100000 of
their soldiers have been placed along
the border between Lithuania and
East Prussia.
If they are not there to be
held in readiness for an attack
on Germany-why are they
there? That's the question which
occupies great many minds this
week.
To what extend the French sur
render will affect the war between
France and Italy is not known, but
it is assumed that that conflict will
almost automatically cease with Italy
being granted what Mussolini wants.
Plea for Help.
On May 10, the Germans began
their invasion of Holland and Bel
GUM, and soon thereafter entered
northern France. In a little more
than five weeks they had conquered
not only Holland and Belgium but
also had forced the French army
one of the strongest in the world
to its knees.
And as the hour of doom APP
preached, the French government
made passionate pleas for help-sent
prayer for help across the Atlantic
to President Roosevelt. He could
only answer that the American peo-
Piles sympathies were very frankly
with the allies, and that he and the
Congress would do their utmost to
help France with airplanes and other
war materials, but that no men could
be sent as the United States could
not go to war without the consent
of the Congress.
Whatever help can be sent to
France will, obviously, arrive too
late, so now it is understood that all
supplies contracted for in this coun-
try for the account of France, will
go to Great Britain.

A Little Spice

Don't throw your destiny out of the
window by making excuses for your
failures.
Since success can't be inherited,
there's always some chance for the
poor boy and girl.
A character builder is like any other
builder: Success depends on a clear
head and careful work.
Your neighbors will usually respond
to all the good interest you invest in
them.
No one can be classed as foolish
until his vanity overrules his judg-
ment.
The saddest thing on earth is the
death of a fine friendship.
It takes a very small capital to
set up your mind in fault-fnding.

THE MACHINE AGE
(The Pope County Tribune)

(Ihe Pope County Trlbune)
The war in Europe has demon
strated again that this is the Machine
Age. The French soldier is known
to be the best equipped and the brav-
est soldier in the world. But the
French soldier, even how brave he
is, is no match for a ninety ton tank
when it comes speeding at him. The
French soldier, or any other soldier,
is no match for an airplane that
comes diving through the air and
lets lose bombs. The reason why
Hitler's blitzkrieg has so quickly
overpOWered the Allies and has
driven them back all the time is that
he has the superiority in air forces
and in tanks. The Germans must
also be given credit for having an
uncanny knowledge of how to manip-
ulate the war machinery and how to
plan their attacks. It is also evident
that Hitler has had some secret means
of destruction that the Allies have
not yet learned the nature of.
Inventions which were not known
century ago and inventions which
have yet to be discovered were de-
signed by the Creator to help man
to enjoy a fuller life and to live a
more abundant life. Man has always
had the right to choose and that right
means his decision whether inven-
tons should be used for the better
ment of humanity or the destruction
of humanity. In the last generation,
the Machine Age has swept this ma
ton and has practically eliminated
drudgery all over. 1t is shown by
the fact that production is now as
high as in 1929, even though we
have around 100000 men who are
not used in industries and other
activities as in 1929. 1t does not take
much imagination to see what Won
derful world this could be made if
the inventions and the machinery
were used for the betterment of hu-
mainly. The living standards could
be raised all over the world and all
people could share in the wealth
the world has to offer in every COR
ner. Maybe when this death struggle
is over, man may have sense enough
to use the Machine Age for his own
betterment and not his destruction.

Nothing in recent years has shocked
the American people as profoundly
as the continued German triumphs in
Europe-and nothing quite as deeply
as the surrender of France But there
does not appear to be any very con-
siderable sentiment in favor of enter
ing the European war. 1t is felt there
are other ways of helping. But &C
tual participation in that war would
right now be considered as futile as
it would be wrong.

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
Continued from Page u


government conferences were
held at Bordeaux, the upshOt
being that Paul Reynaud, who
had wanted to continue the war
until the bitter end, resigned
from his post of prime minister.
He stood almost alone. Every
one else realized it was hopeless
to keep on. In his place the
84-year old hero of the Verdun
battles of 1914, Marshal Henri
Philippe Petain, took over the
leadership of the government, and
on Monday he announced in a
voice trembling with deepest
emotion that France had laid
down her arms, had surrendered
to the enemy, had notified the
enemy to that effect, and now
merely hoped for a peace on
honorable terms.
The announcement was less sur
prise than shock to the rest of the
world.
Conditions.
The German reaction to the sur
render became clear within a few
minutes when Berlin announced that
there could be no discussion, no nego-
tiations, with France. The action of
the Petain government had to be
CONSIDERED literally and absolutely
unconditional surrender.
1t was thought, however, that Ger
many would demand the disarma-
ment of France; the abolition of the
Maginot line; the ceding of Alsace-
Lorraine; the surrender of the French
navy believed to be in the Mediter-
ranean), and the surrender to Italy
of the French territory which Mus
solini covets. There was no an
nouncement to that effect, but that
seemed to be the impression of we'll
informed and experienced observers
And now that the French prob
lem has been solved by Hitler, the
next move will be headed in the
direction of England.
On to London!
The German conquests of Nor
way, Denmark, Holland, Belgium and
France have been made for the one
overmastering purpose of storming
the British Isles.
1t was believed early this week
that Hitler would lose no time
in attacking London. He now
has no reason to fear a French
rear attack, and he can go ahead
to fulfill what he himself con-
siders his "histOric mission
that is, the destruction of the
British empire. Whether this
will be too much of a task for
him, remains to be seen.
For there is the possibility of a
new factor appearing. 1t will be re-
called that between Germany and
Soviet Russia there is a treaty of
commerce and friendship. There is
no military alliance. And lately Rus
STA seems to have been looking
askance at the German triumphs.
Hitler seemed to be getting little
