SCATHING ATTACK ON U.S.
AMERICAN ASSAILS OWN COUNTRY
“IMPERIALISTIC POLICY” (Australian and N.Z. Press Association) Reed. 9 a.m. LONDON, "Wednesday. A scathing attack on the United States’ Imperialistic policy was made by Mr. Benjamin C. Marsh, a wellknown American, at a conference on Imperialism in the Caxton Hall. He said:—“The Monroe Doctrine was not conceived in altruistic sympathy with the South American peoples, but with the object of reserving them for exploitation by the land of the free. “The United States has embarked on a definite policy of world financial and economic domination. “While most of the rest of the world was fighting for world trade and commercial supremacy in 1914 to 1918, the ruling classes, whose capitol is Wall Street and not Washington, were cold-bloodedly figuring out which horse to put their money on. Unlike Beaconsfield in the Crimean War, we picked the right horse, a sure winner, and then continued to ride both the winners and the loser.”
