August 7.—The | right of the United States to Intervene the affairs of Latin America was de- bated this forenoon before the Insti- tute of Public Affairs, now in session at the University of Virginia. The most important problem in the | l(llxl()l relations of the United States is that of formulating a wise and just v atin American policy.” said Dr. John Latane of Johns Hopkins University.
