MONROE DOCTRINE RECOGNIZED.
The inclusion of the Monroe Doctrine in the League
of Nations constitution has a significance that many peo
ple have not perceived. The widespread demand for
recognition of this policy by the peace conference was
based simply on the fear that it might be swept away,
and the United States and the Western Hemisphere in
general be left with weaker guarantees of peace and in
dependence than before. Its actual recognition, by ex
press mention in the league constitution, goes much tur
iher than this.
Not only is the United States left free to continue
protecting North and South America against foreign
aggression, unrestricted by other provisions ot the con
stitution, but all the other nations belonging to the league
are committed to the policy and thus add their authority
to it.
Americans generally ignore the fact that heretofore
we have maintained this doctrine alone. Great Britain
has long given it her moral support but neither Britain
nor any other power has ever formally recognized it.
Now recognition is made world-wide, and the Monroe
Doctrine instead of a principle depending on a single
fiat of the United States and maintained against an un
willing world, wins the formal sanction of everybody and
becomes an established part of international law.
If President Monroe, when he timidly put forth this
bold doctrine in the early years of our national inde
pendence a century ago, could have foreseen this triumph!

The repudiation of the Socialist party by leaders who
represent the better phase of socialism has been one of
the results of the May Day demonstration to which the
more radical element of the Socialist party gave its sanc
lion. In a statement making public the reasons for his
resignation from the party, Max Hayes,-a well known
Socialist editor, says:
"If the leaders of the Socialist Party were not com
pletely obsessed by egotism or blinded by fanaticism or
both, 'they could have foreseen what occurred." (He re
fers to the public rising against the red flag parade, and
the arrest and imprisonment of many who took part in
the demonstration.)
