PAPER ATTACKS WILSON'S POLICY Article Refers to America"? Note? on Bolivian Di turbancc?. Br A?oei.ited iTcn : IiUKNOS AX HKS. March .",0 The recent notes of the- t'nited States government regarding the antiPeruvian disturbances in Polivia are describee! as "arrogant" in an editorial published Tuesday by Ii Prenyl, eriticlzing the poliey of the United States. pat and present, toward th?? South American republics. "The recent Pf r u-IJol i via n conllict. says the newspaper, "prealuced new int rvention from the white house by in ans of telegrams, the style of wht- h appears to be more suitable vh to the artion of a tu' or toward disorelerly pupils than te the diplomatic style usual in dealing with sovereign states. Opinion in the republics di-re-ctly chafed by these te-le-gra ms. laments that the l.'nited States treats them like protecteiraf es er countries with limited sovt reiemty." lU-fer to Protest. The- -ditorial reft rs to the protest against the American rote- to Chile made by the United States chamber of commerce in Valparaiso, as "a just and opportune observation." and yays these American citizvns, and doubtless those Americans n the rest of the continent, regret the tone of the imte, "because the atmosphere of suspicion and misgiving which it arouses is unfavorable to their welfare and the development of their interests which they are cultivating for the- benefit of their own country." "What is the origin of this arrogant diplomatic style of the white hoa.se in respect to sister republics?" th editorial continues. "Is it the inadvertence of a subalte-rn or u premeditated policy? What is the actual position and what ought to be the future of the Argentine republic? It is not possible to remain indifferent to occurrences which are developing on our frontiers." Historical IloIcw. The editorial Is introduced by what the newspaper characterizes as a historical review of the policy of th?' United States toward the South American republics. It deals particularly with the development of the Monroe dectrine, which it declares in its final phase is purely economic in character. "Th Monno doctrine of this epe'eh," says Ja Prensa, "is nothing else than an aspiration to dislodge European influence, an inlluence that is wholly economic, since no great power has thought, either before the! war or now, of threatening the independence or integrity of the states of the new world, er anv eine of them."

Somebody Went
South With Fr. Burns' Cadillac Spring with all It whispering", romances, pitfalls and temptations has evidently hit Notre. Dame university If th reports emanating from the institution through the underground rout. mere commonly known as rumor can be given crtAience. When Rev. John Cavanaugli reI linquished the presidency of Notre Dame he turned over to his Fucces- I sor. R? v. John Rurns, a handsome Cadillac touring car, which wr purchased by the university for the personal use of the educational head of the institution. The- machine whi h was kept in the school garage was rarely in use I during the winte r but since the ad vent of the balmy breezes anil th?sunshiny days of early spring, the car was given a thorough overhauling in preparation for the coming months. The question that is puzzling police and university otticials is: who took the car out of the garage Monday night? The news that the machine was not in its proper parking place during the night spread like wildfire through the campus ami whispering conjecture was heard during the course of the day's routine activity. Up to a late, hour the overwhelming mystery was still unsolved but rumor has It that a little questioning of certain members of the student body will bring a wealth of desired information to light. PI.AVINCi s.ri: i:i I. l'MTEIl? "Why should I?" question the chief of police of himself. Recently a man was arrested in a downtown place where the click ef chips and the- rattle of dice mingle with the whirr of the roulette. The charge was serious, anl it was believed that a raid on the place might be the means of gathering evidence that would at least be an important factor in the chain of evidence being1 gathered against the man under arrest. The chief of police was appealed to by those working on the case. It was pointed out to him that it might be advisable for the police to raid the place. "I should say not." answered the police head to the appeal for the raid. "I'll tell you what I will do. though," continueel the he-ad of the department, "you go ahead and arrest this man and convict him, and then 1 will have the place raided." HOOVER AGREES TO ENTER G. O. P. RACE TOR NOMINATION (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.) ervatlons safeguarding American traditions and interest; as opposed to the extreme view advocated against any league at all. I differ just as strongly with this view as I differ with the extreme position taken by the president on participation in pure!yNEuropean affairs. This issue is whether, with reservations protecting our position, we should join the moral forces of the world to reduce the dangers again growing around us. or whether we will, by pretense of an insularity that we do not possess, sit by in the fact of growing armies, navies, national antagonisms, reaction, or. in reverse, the spread of bolshevism. through much of the world. This would be the defeat of the hopes for which our sons were sacriheed in this war. "Entirely aside from this moral idealism of the league and the danger toour own ultimate peace, the solution of our domestic I roblems, such as the size of our armament, reduction in taxation, and the prevention of a agricultural and industrial depression and consequent unemployment, is dependent upon stability "abroad and upon our access to the world's markets, which today are endangered by discrimination against us through our inability to exercise our veto under the treaty. I believe It is the transcedent service which the republican party tan render to the nation to setll a league sufficiently designed to give us these national protections. iHn'Idei Issues. "No one should be able to dictate the policies of great parties, yet every man ami woman has a right to decide what Issues and measures he will support. If the republican j artv with the independent element of which I am naturally arfiiliatcd adopts a forwarding looking, liberal constructive platform, on the treaty and on our economic issue?, and If the party propose-s measures for sound business administration of the country, and is neither reactionary neer radical in its approach to our great domestic question" and is backed by men who undoubtedly assume the consummation of these policies and measures. I will give it my entire support. While I do not and will not ntseif t.ee',- the nomination, if it is fe-lt that the issues necessitate it. and it is demanded of me. I cannot refuse service.
