Step to End War. BY FREDERIC WILLIAM WILE, Conversion of the Monroe doctrine, the keystone of the United States’ forelgn policy, into the common law of all the pan-American republics is contemplated by the plan to_codify international law in the Western Hemisphere. For the first time, the attempt is made to convert Monroe- ism from a shibboleth into a statute. If the projects are eventually opted by the 21 republics of the Americas, the Monroe doctri will no longer be an ill-defined principle of the Na- tion that created it. It will be a law having behind it the full sanction and authority of the whole western world. Central America, South America and the Caribbean nations will cease to be merely the bene- ficaries of Monroeism. They will be co-equal partners with the United States in the execution af the new international law of this half of the world. Plan Just Submitted. The plan to ebdify the Monroe doctrine into a statute is one of 30 different projects just submitted to the 21 governments that comprise the Pan-American Union. It {s known as Project No. 8, and is entitled “Fundamental Rights of American Republics.” It does not mention the Monroe doctrine by name. But all the implications of the doctrine are to be found in this declaration of pan-American independence. The “project” reads as follows: ARTICLE 1. The following principles are de- clared to constitute American public law and shall be applied ' and respected in America by all nations: 7 1. The American republics, equal before international law, have the rights inherent in complete inde- pendence, liberty and soverelgnty. Such rights can in no way be re- stricted to the profit of another nation, even with the consent of the interested American repub- lles. . No American republic can cede any part whatever of its terri- tory to a non-American nation, even'if it consents to do so. 3. No nation shall hereafter, for any reason whatsoever, di- rectly or indirectly, occupy even femporarily any portion of the territory of an American republic in order to exercise soverelgnty therein, even with the consent of the said republic. 4. No nation has a right to in- terfere in the internal or foreign affairs of an American republic wgainst the will of that republid. The sole lawful intervention is friendly and -concillatory action without any character of coerclon. ARTICLE 2. In case of violation of the pro- visions of the preceding article by one or more nations; or, in gen- eral, in case of menace, offense or acts of violence, indlvidual or collective, comntitted by those na- tions with respect to an American republic, the continental solidarity will be affected thereby, and any American republic may address the Pan-American Union with the object of bringing about an ex- change of views on the subject. Attitude Is Self-Explanatory. While this new Monroe doctrine makes no mention of force or any provision for its employment, the declaration that the “continental solidarity will be affected” by any oppression of an American republic speaks for itself. It says, in effect, that a blow at any American re- public is a blow at all of them. The “continental solidarity” of the West- ern World has never before been ad- vocated as a principle to be written into international law. Therein lles the tremendous significance of “pro- ject No. 8. One of the principal framers of these far-reaching plans to tighten the bonds of pan-America declares that they alm at nothing short of “remaking the Western World."

C, THURSDAY, do not look to the creation of a “pan-American alliance,’ or a com- munity of nations that is to set itself apart from the rest of the world, or to be a rival of any existing associa- tion of nations. Even the pan-Amer- ican court of justice that is projected, for the handling of future Tacna- Africa controversies and the like, is not to be a competitor of the World Court at The Hague. The scheme seeks to do no more and no less than to transform into recognized rules of law the traditions and practices which always have prevailed among the American republics. It essays to do for the Western World what President Coolldge has declared ought to be done for the whole international law. When the Massa- chsetts constitutional convention was sitting in 1780, it adopted a code of law: to the end that this shall be a government of law and not of men.” That's the underlying principle of the pan-American project now launched Formulated by Experts. 4 Men acknowledged to be leading in- ternational authorities in their re- spective countries comprised the com- mittee that formulated the “codifi- cation of American International law,” under authority of the Pan- American Unfon.

This writer nsked an eminent pan- American authority in Washington In what respect the new plan to guar- antee peace and justice in the West- ern World differs from Europe's plan to “secure and stabilize" the Old World. He said: “The American republics would place their reliance in guarantees expressed in terms of law. The KEuropean states insist upon the guarantee of force as ex- pressed in terms of armies, navies, demilitarized frontiers, economic pressure, balances of power and rival ententes.” Viewed broadly, pan-America is, by way of setting to brawling and broil- ing Europe, staggering more or less blindly toward a permanent banish- ment of war, a concrete and prac- ! example of how to attain that end.
