PERUVIAN PRESS LAUDS CODLIDGE v Other Foreign Papers Also Gomment on Speech Lima, Peru, Jan. 19 P—In con- trast to the criticism heard in some Latin-American newspapers about President Coolidge's speech opening the Pan-American conference in Ha- | vana, La Prensa, the official govera- men organ, today had nothing but praise for the “serene and simple discourse of the defender of Ameri- can democracy.” The newspaper's editorial particu- larly referred to what it termed the wholesome reiteration that *“sover- - cignty of small nations is respected. And cited as a striking example Cuba’s progress since her independ- ence from Spanish domination, Berlin, Jan. 19 (®—Deutscher Allgemeine Zeitung commenting on | the Pan-American conference ironi cally cites the United States’ inter- ference in Nicaragua as a patent il- «lustration of President Coolidge's as- sertion that the United States solves difficulties among American states without recourse to force. Coolidge’s speech leaves no doubt, the paper says, that the Monroe Doctrine precedes the League of Na- tions even though most American states are members of the League. Nevertheless, the paper declares, the United States never can and nev- er will be an unconcerncd spectator to European events. Mexlco City, Jan. 19 (P—EIl Uni- versal in an editorial today said President Coolidge's address at Ha- vana was lost in a sea of misty and scntimental inconsistencies and abounded in commonplaces and contradictions with the facts. The paper asserted that it Cool- idge's speech was to be used for the interpretation of future internation- al relations of this hemisphere the meaning of words such as liberty, | law, defense and friendship would | be alarming for the weak American nations whose only protection ac- + cording to Coolidge is found in a vague law by which the mighty are entitled to pay closer attention to the | spirit rather than the text. Montevideo, Uruguay, Jan. 19 (@ —La Plata, daily newspaper, com- | pared President Coolidge with Wil- helm Hohenzollern, former German Kaiser in an editorial on the presi-| dent’s speech at Havana. The editorial terms the voyage of Coolidge to Havana “futile” and points to the display of force atcoms | panying the visit. Concluding the editorial sees likenesses of Mr. Cool- idge mow to the former German Kaiser at the time of his imperialis- | tic dreams, LOSES LATEST BRIDE * Giant Texan Tells New York Police Her Relatives Kidnaped Her from Him, New York, Jan. 19 P — A six- foot Texan complained to police to- day that his father-in-law and two brothers-in-law had “kidnaped” his sixth and latest bride.
