THE MONROE DOCTRINE
NOT TO BE SELFISHLY APPLIED AMERICANS READY TO FIGHT FOR DEMOCRACIES By Telegraph—Press Association—OopyrlgM (Rec. April 20, 8.20 p.m.) New York, April 19. President Harding, speaking on tho occasion of the unveiling of a statue of Bolivar, the South American patriot, said; “The history of the Monroe doctrine proves that we never intended that it should be applied selfishly. The history of tho last decade must convince all the world that we stand willing to fight if necessary to protect the. Continents’ democracies from oppression and tyranny’. No American State has succumbed to the temptation to fall under the militaristic system which finally brought about tho Great War. I feel that wo Americans, North and South, arc entitled to hold our democracies, which come as a light into the world of international relations, and will show us the way out of the world’s present troubles. —Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
