American republics with much diplomacy, financial adventures have used it as a cloak for their

for purposes of conquest. It was in the name of the Monroe doctrine that President Polk annexed Texas in 1845. It was under the same auspices that President Grant demanded the seizure of San Domingo in

Connecting the Job and the Man. "Unemployment is the worst and most sactended of industrial evils." This remark, made by Louis Brandeis. is seconded by the head of a great business corporation who made ft still stronger, "The question of unemployment is, perhaps, the most important as well as the hardest that civilization requires to be solved." The gravity of this problem and the earient of unemployment was emphasized in these columns yesterday. Happily, there is another side to the picture presented by the numerous agencies now at work to cope with this gigantic industrial evil. Recognizing that the inability of men to find jobs when they hunt for them is a matter that concerns all nations, a number of labor specialists in Europe have organised an international association. The first conference held by the National Association for Labor Legislation was in reality a section of the international body. Inasmuch, therefore, as a number of the keenest and most earnest minds of Europe are wrestling with the problem at the same time and a number of our own leaders are doing their best with it, we may expect in a reasonable time to have something done to lessen the evil of joblessness. It must be understood that these organizations pay little attention to "unemployableness," 'it we may coin a word, because the men who are not fit to work or won't work are left to the mercies of other agencies. The problem of unemployment and the number listed in that, line are of these persons who hunt work but can't find

it. It needs also to be emphasized that every man can not accept any job. Just because a man happens to be out of worlc doesn't instantly fit him to undertake the first employment offered him.

Much injustice is done worthy men because they! 1870, and it was this same principle which was

supposed to be the basis on which Kooseveit acted to seize Panama. This use of the Monroe doctrine has given it in the eyes of Latin-American republics a "heads I win, and tails you lose" aspect. They are coming to look upon it as bluff on our part to keep Europe out of this hemisphere in order that we ourselves may have plenty of room to expand. It was this interpretation which caused Dr. Perez Canton, of Chile, to write, "The Monroe doctrine implies a moral subordination to the United States which is repulsive to the national feelings of the young republics." The Venezuelan Dia, a very influential newspaper of South America, has recently expressed itself with equal incisiveness. "Why does the United States arrogate the power of exercising tutelage over these countries of South America?" And a Brazilian diplomat exclaimed, after hearing much talk about the Monroe doctrine, "We are quite able to care for ourselves." These utterances from South America are very mild when compared with similar utterances from Central America. These little republics are absolutely convinced that the Monroe doctrine is merely a wall of concealment behind which we hope to be able to take their territory from them. Understanding the gravity of our international outlook toward Latin-America, President Wilson, at Mobile, Ala., last October, took occasion to make a new extension of the doctrine. He affirmed that he would apply it to ourselves as well as to Europe and guarantee the sister repub

lics against our encroachment on their territory. At the same time, he expressed the hope of

the possibility of the Pan-American union which would recognize that all nations in this hemisphere have everything in common and stand to gain by standing togehter. But the new Monroe doctrine thus formed has remained a mere utterance, an abstract principle. It can have little vitality of influence until it is embodied in action. An opportunity for such a deed is now offered by the Mexican situation. Owing to the Monroe doctrine itself, foreign powers, however anxious, can not intervene in, Mexico, and owing to the spirit of hostility to us among Central American republics, it would precipitate continental disturbance for us to intervene. Why is it not possible now, therefore, for all the republics on this

continent to act in co-operation and establish peace in Mexico ? This would make clear to all nations that Mexico was not to be parceled out among hungry peoples, and especially that the United States has no designs on Mexican territory. It could restore order in Mexico and maintain the peace until the Mexicans could be able to regain control of their own land. But, best of all, it would through action organically unite the countries of this hemisphere and with such a union any foreign power or combination of powers would be helpless to intermeddle in our affairs. And this would be a solution not only of the Mexican difficulty but also of our own relationship with Central and-SotrWwAsnehca.

have in case? refused to attempt labor for which they were physically or mentally incapable. It will also be well for us if we bear in mind that the individual worker out of a job is seldom in a position to find one for himself. Unless an opening presents itself in his neighborhood or in lines with which he is familiar it is next to impossible for him to connect with the employer in some other town who needs workers. He has not the means of obtaining such information and often has no ability to reach a distant place even if hp is there needed. To meet these conditions public employment agencies are necessary. In a majority of progressive cities such institutions are already at work. But the local employment agency can not cope with the problem because it is too broad. It is a national question. For this reason a national organization is being planned which will do for the workers of the nation at large what the isolated local employment agency does for the man in its neighborhood. It is to accomplish this that the National Association for Labor Legislation has been called into existence. The first task to be undertaken is to secure the facts, a much more difficult problem than a first thought would suggest. Its second step will be to seek the co-operation of employers in an attempt to organize industry a little more systematically. It is believed that many seasonal industries, those that are active for a short period only, can be so arranged as to dovetail into each other and thus furnish employment the vear

round. Back of both these measures is the more fundamental plan to increase the amount of indus- ' trial trainings now given in the schools. It is thought that many are thown out of work throught lack of skill even in the work to be had. And to guard against emergencies the plan is to work out some plan of insurance against unemployment. By paying a small amount while at work, the laborer can then have something to fall back on when work is not to be had. Whether these plans can be made successful, and whether or not they go to the root of the problem, they encourage one to believe there is some hope now that unemployment and all the vexing problems it carries with it will receive attention commensurate with their importance. Mexico : An Opportunity.

When the new Democratic administration announced its policy of "watchful waiting" in regard to Mexico, Representative Mann, minority leader in the House, instantly declared that such an attitude must lead sooner or later to war. The past few months have so given countenance to that prediction that there are many keen students of national affairs who believe we are on the brink of armed intervention. And by a strange irony of fate, this armed intervention, if it is made, will have been forced upon us by the Monroe Doctrine, that very principle in our. scheme of foreign relationship which was was most designed to prevent war. When Washington relia$iahd his letwtap-

In that year. President James Menroe proclaimed the sequel to this doctrine by enunciating the positive side ef it. The Holy Affiance m Europe had been formed to counteract the tendency toward democracy in both hemispheres. One of its specific aime was to re-conquer Central and South American nations for Spanish rule. Seeing the gravity of such a crisis as this alliance precipitated, the president in his message announced thai famous doctrine which bears his name. "The American continents, by the free and Independent conditions which they have assumed and maintained, are henceforth not to be considered as subjects for future colonisation by any European power' During the northwestern boundary dispute with Great Britain m 1845, President Polk reaffirmed and slightly extended the doctrine. "It should be distinctly announced to the world," he said, "as our settled policy, that no future European colony or dominion shall, with our consent, be planted or established in any part of the North American continent." In another dispute with Great Britain concerning the Venezuelan boundary, President Cleveland in 1895 agam reaffirmed the Monroe doctrine, and after him Roosevelt used it often in his diplomatic dealings with character;' tic vig-

or. "The western hemisphere," he said on one occasion, "is not to be treated as Africa or midAsia is treated, as a subject for conquest by any old world power." But while there has never been very much opposition to the Monroe doctrine m the United States, and while the Latin-American republics to the south of us accepted it with practical unanimity until recently, the attitude toward this his

matter and the board would like to have its action indorsed by council. Councilman Weishaupt then remarked that it was customary to have all questions presented for ratification submitted in writing and that he did not want to take any action on a verbal report. He then moved that the question be submitted to the proper committee. Discuss Light Rates. Before this action was taken City Attorney Bond emphatically declared that council had no voice in the matter, and as a matter of fact, the board of public works' authority on the question was limited to petitioning the commission for new rates. The commission, he pointed out, was all powerful in dealing with questions relating to public utilities. Mr. Bond explained that if the city and the Light, Heat & Power company had not gotten together and prepared a joint rate schedule, subject to the commission's approval, the commission would have taken such action on its own initiative for he knew the commission will rigorously inforce a policy calling for joint rates for plants rendering the same service in every city ln the state. Mr. Bond then explained in detail the various features of the joint petition which was presented the commission today. He said the city is to pay the municipal plant $11,000 a year for street and park lighting and a rate of 31 cents, k. w. for all other electricity used. The city attorney's explanation of

Ceuncll quickly transacted its regular business last night but Mayor Robblns balked a threatened motion to adjourn by suggesting a "get-together" discussion of city affairs. He also took oocasion to again scold the public for not attending council meetings in greater numbers. After this little lecture President Bavis of the board informed council

the question proved satisfactory to council and the motion to refer the matter to the ordinance committee was withdrawn. Nothing Done on Clusters. Councilman Howells asked the mayor what action had been taken on the Main street cluster lighting question. Mr. Robbins told him this matter had never been brought to the attention of the present board and, therefore, had never been considered. He said, however, it would not be considered until new rates for the light plant and new street lighting system for the entire city had been provided. The mayor also said it was the desire of the board to establish a luminous arc lighting system for Richmond this year. The question of cementing the roadway of the first alley south of Main street from Eleventh to Fourteenth, referred to a council committee, was not reported on last night. Councilman Weishaupt requested that all questions referred by council to the board of works be reported back to council in writing as soon as convenient for the board. By this method councilmen are provided with Information for their complaining constitue'hts. Weishaupt said. His suggestion was accepted.
