THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. MAY 13 1 928—PART 1. - B LOCAL NAVAL PILOTS AND PLANES FOR CURTISS MARINE TROPHY RACE MONRDE DR DEFNTION ASKED U. S. Attitude in Latin Coun- | : tries Shifts, Forum g Speaker Says. ¥ The United States should make an exact definttion of its interpretation of the Monroe Doctrine, and the American | people should know exsctly the extent | and nature of finaneial investments in th® Latin countries, John Dewey, pro- | fessor of philosophy at Columbia Uni- versity, vesterday told a meeting on international relations held by the Pecple’s Forum at the Raleigh Hotel address, it was stated that had failed to secure an sudience with President Coolidge to ex- | plain to him his ideas. i Through a policy of drifting and op- portunism for the last half century. Prof. Dewey said, the Monroe Doctrine has come to mean exactly what the American Government may want it to mean at any specific time. ‘ Investments Increase. In the past 15 years. he said. Ameri- can investments in the Latin countries have increased 20 times and the Mon- | ras Doctrine has been invoked to pro- tect them without much consideration | of their exact nature. “In the United States.” he said. « property’ has come to have a greatly extended meaning through court inter- pretations. until it has come to denote not only material, tangible possessions but also such matters as the right of certain returns on investment. This is all very well when applied to our do- | mestic affairs, but it hardly can be made & matter of international law to be enforced under the Monroe Doc- | trine.” hen ths Monroe Doctrine was pro- muigated, Prof. Dewey said, it had al clear meaning. because then the United States was a weak Nation offering to | protect weaker nations against ageres- | sive European powers. but since then the Latin American countries have lost | all fear of Europe while their “pro- tector” has become the most powerful Nation in_the world | Belitties Treaties. Wars no longer break. out directly btween great powers, but-as the result | of controversies over small countries, | Dean Albert H. Putney of the Al ican University School of Political Sciznce said in stressing his belief that treaties between the great powers outlawing war would do little real good. ! At the end of 1927, American foreign | investments amounted to $14,500.000,000, | Robert W. Dun of New York told the | meeting, and capital now is being loaned | to foreign governments and corporations | at the rate of about $2,000.000.000 a year. “The maintenance of the largest mili- tary and naval force this country has ever known,” he said, “is a logical ac- companiment of economic imperialism. just as war is but a function of that im- ism. The Navy Department open- ly boasts of services rendered to en- courage profitable trade with certain colonial countries rich in resources, notably Haiti and San Domingo.” Urges Co-operation. Arthur Warner, associate editor of the Nation, declared that co-opera- tion with smaller American nations to the south was essential in order to “pre- serve our democracy.” “Imperialistic chickens come home to roost.” he said. “An administration which rides on horseback over popular rights abroad soon begins to do the same thing at home, and our aggression in recent years in.
