This sounds like a simple question, but the progress,— even the maintenance,—of our eivil- ization depends upon the answer. By this time it must be evident te every thinking person that the Cove- nant of the League of Nations can- not be torn out of the Peace Treaty; and it must soon be realized, even by those whose eyes are temporarily blinded by political antagonisms, that an attempt to amend the Covenant at this juncture is fraught with danger, since the condition of many countries, as a result of hunger and of general war upheaval, is so unstable that rey- olution may break out at almost any moment if peace between the nations is not at once established.

When in Grangeville Eat at the Silver Grill dangerous to the establishment of the League, because if the United States either repudiates or stipulates for special interpretations of certain arti- cles of the Covenant, other nations will naturally wish to do the same. with the result that this great Magna Charta may become devitalized and ineffective, if it can be established at all. Surely even though not perfect, the Covenant represents a wonderful step forward in the life of the world! Therefore let us make sure that the United States does her part by join- ing the League of Nations at the earliest possible moment. To thi: end let every man and woman writ« to our Senators at Washington, urging them to ratify the Peace Treaty in cluding the Covenant, without amend- ments or reservations. Rose Dabney Malcolm Forbes. Pres. League for Permanent Peace June 28, 1919. AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY AND MONROE DOCTRINE The Monroe Dectrine, as originally announced, served as a shield, which the United States held over itself and over weaker states on the American continents as a_ protection against Buropean interference and Europear encroachment, It was and is a aational policy which protects North and South America and makes for peace on these continents. There is real danger now, however, that the Monroe Doctrine will ve carried so far and with so high a hand that the real value of the policy will be lost. Senator Knox made the following amazing statement in his recent speech in the Senate: Its (The Monroe Doctrine) precise character, the extent, method and time of its application, the means of compelling its observance, all are matters of our high aud uncontrolled will and sov ereign prerogative. We, the United States, cannot answer to any one else in respect to it. We use it when, as, and to the extent we need it. There can be no limitation upon it, except our requirements, our will, and our force of arms. Whatever security we may need within its purview, it must give if we ask it.” That sounds like Trietschke, It is an announcement of unlimited will, backed by arms, to be exercised as the United States alone determines her own requirements to be. Such an immoderate statement of the Mon- roe Doctrine weakens and does not strengthen it, It is am extreme statement of the doctrine, calculated to cause trouble and friction on the American continents. The Doctrine so stated is not unlike the doctrine which Germany sought to apply to Europe, Senator Knox would refuse to sub- mit to conciliation any dispute grow- ing out of the application of the Monroe Doctrine, whether such dis- pute were between the Unitd States and an American state or between the United States and a non-Ameéri- can state, On the American conti- nent the arbitrary will of the United States backed by force is to prevail. The other nations agree, in the Cov- enant of the League of Nations, to submit to conciliation all non-justici- ible disputes; that is, those which grow out of questions of policy. Is the United States to demand that she alone be relieved from such obliga- tion and on the ground that, when her interests are involved, her abso- lute will shall prevail? How does this differ from the German position in Europe? The fact is that the Monroe Doc- trine now that it has been recognized in the Covenant of the League of Na- ions is adequately protected.
