Has Kept Itudiler True ln Its conduct of foreign relations the Wilson Administration, Mr. Olnoy Buys, "hns kopt its rudder tiuo and hns won and deserved tho respect and gratltudo of tho country." Tho principles and objects of tho Wilson foreign policy ns stated by Mr. Olnoy linvo been: First To keep the country out of tho great European war. Second To Insist upon tho ex. Istcnco nnd vitality of Interna. tlonal law as determining Its own status as a neutral, nnd defining Its rights nnd obligations as such. Third To deal with tho Mexl. can situation In a spirit ot per. feet fairness and friendliness to tho Mexican people, now suffer. ing from civil dissensions and revolution to tin extent which leaves a largo pnrt of tho country in a stato of anarchy. Mr. Olnoy shows that all these ob. jeets havo been attained through the wise, patient and courageous tllplo. mocy of Woodrow Wilson; thnt tho President hns kept tho country at penco wothout dishonor; that under Ills leadership "tho United States has rendered an Inestimable servlco to belligerents and neutrals and to oil mankind" In "steadily bcailng aloft tho banner of International law as tho standard under which all civilized peoples muBt ovcntually gather." Mr. OIney finds particular causo to commend President Wilson's Mexican policy. He stands with tho President In declaring thnt tho Mexicans havo tho right to woik out their own destiny even through revolution. Closing by asking what Is likely to happen If tho "Presidential tlllor passes Into new hands," Mr. OIney says thnt Hughes' Inducement to cliungo tho existing foreign policies of tho country will bo very groat. "Tho Amoricnn people can hardly fall to reallzo the danger and to refuso to put a risk tho continuance of n foreign policy which, as a whole, must hnvo their henrty approval." i . . |
