MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay. April 3. ( liy The Associated Press.) Ad dressing an "open heart" meeting at which the South American delegates to the Christian Work congress were invited to speak frankly, Dr. Enrique Mollnn, dean of the University of Con cepclon, Chile, last night declared that South Americans were skeptical of Pan-Americanism because It was an Ideal corrupted by the commercial tendencies of .the United States. He also asserted that the Pan-Americanism and the Monroe doctrine had been unable to exist side by side, as they were contradictory, and that in fact the doctrine .as "a dead let ter.' "The Ideal of Pan -Americanism," said Dr. Molina, "does not count upon the support of the masses of South America. They view it with skepti cism, because they see It as a means for the United States to dominate the South American countries. They feel .deeply about it because of Its com mercial aspects." This feeling of skepticism, he add ed, was very marked In the Caribbean countries of the southern continent. The speaker cited what ho alleged to be unfortunate manifestations of this aspect on the part of the United Slates in Haiti, San Domingo, Hon duras and Panama and asserted that while the Americans Individually were the best of people they consti tuted ns a whole a menaco to Iatln Americn. Pan-Americanism and tho Monroe doctrine were contradictory, he went on, because thorough Pan-Americanism must exist In the co-operation of nil tho nations as equals and tho Mon roe doctrine was a doctrine before the United States constituted itself the protector of the other nations. - "Vo feel that we are free nations and have a right to maintain ourselves as such," Dr. Molina said, "but the Monroe doctrine implies a hegemony. "In fact the doctrino expired while Pan-Americanism at present is only a hope." CHICAGO, April 3. A. M.
