To the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives: The foreign relations of the United
States actually and potentially affect
tho state of the Union to a degree not
widely realized and hardly surpassed
by any other factor In the welfare of
the whole Nation. The position of
tho United States lu the moral, In
tellectual, and material relations of
tho family of nations should be a
matter of vital Interest to every pa
triotic citizen. The national prosper
ity and power Impose upon us duties
which we can not shirk If we are to
be true to our Ideals. The tremend
ous growth of the export trade of
tho United States has already made
that trade a very real factor in the
Industrial and commercial prosperity
of (lie country. With the develop
ment of our industries the foreign
commerce of the United States must
rapidly become a still more essential
factor In Its economic welfnre. Wheth
er we have a far-seeing and wise di
plomacy and are not recklessly
plunged Into unnecessary wars, and
whether our foreign policies are based
upon lu Intelligent grasp of present
lay world conditions and a clear view
of the potentialities of the future, or
are governed by a temporary and
llmid expediency or by narrow views
befitting nn Infant nation, are ques
tions in the alternative consideration
of which must convince any thought
ful citizen that no department of na
tional polity offers greater opportun
ity fur promoting the interests of the
whole people on the one hnnd, or
greater chance on the other of per
manent Injury, than that which deals
with the foreign relations of the
United States.
Tho fundamental foreign policies of
the United States should be raised
high above the conflict of partisan
ship and wholly dissociated from dif
ferences as to domestic policy, In its
foreign, affairs the United States
should present to the world a united
front. The Intellectual, financial, and
Industrial Interests of the country and
the publicist, the wage earner, the
farmer, and citizen of whatever occu
pation, must co-operate In a spirit of
IiIkIi patriotism to promote that na
tional solidarity which Is Indispens
able to national efficiency and to the
attainment of national Ideals.
The relations of the United States
"with all foreign powers remain upon
n sound basis of peace, harmony, and
friendship. A greater Insistence upon
jiiBtice to American citizens or Inter
ests wherever It may have been de
nied and a stronger emphasis of the
Terd of mutuality In commercial and
ither relations have only served to
strengthen our friendships with for
mica countries by placing those friend- her 26, 1909, by an Executive order (q thfi npraao f American trade

Important events of the last year in
our foreign relations, which it is my
lnty to do as charged with their con
duct and because diplomatic affairs
are not of a nature to make It ap
propriate that the Secretary of State
make a formal annual report, I desire
to louch upon some of the essentials
to the safe management of the foreign
relations of the United States and to
endeavor, also, to. define clearly cer

logical modern corollaries of the un
disputed and traditional fundamentals
of the foreign policy of the United
States.

folly entered upon Its position as a

thrust upon, It by the results of the
Spnnlsh-Aemrlcan War, and already
Mged in laying the groundwork of
a vast foreign trade upon which It
should one day become more and more
l"Pendent, found itself without the
laeliinery for giving thorough atten

The Department of State was an
archaic and Inadequate machine lack

n-y recommendation by the Congress
on August 5, 1909, the Department of
State was completely reorganized.
There were created Divisions of Latin
