Editorial Comment -AUSTRALIA'S MONROE DOCTRINE Australia has an Asiatic problem and a Monroe doctrine closely allied to ours. If anything she feels a still greater menace from her close geographical position to the overflowing millions of Asia than we do in this country, except, possibly, on the Pacific coast, where apprehension is very strong. The peo- ple of Australia and New Zealand are determined that theirs shall be "a white man's country." They repel any sort of invasion by the yellow races, peace- ful or otherwise. r When Australia demanded that she should have control of all German islands south of the equator in exclusion of Japan, limiting that country to those north of the line, those who did notunderstand the situation were disposed to accuse the Australians of empire ambitions and colonial greediness. This was a wrong estimate of the situation. It was a measure of defense against inroad by the Asiatic races into the South. Pacific. This control is justified, in addition to creating a barrier agairlst Asiatic invasion, by the principles of our Monroe doctrine, the defense of their form of democracy. The doctrine is defined by the Mel- bourne Age. It says: "The voice of Australia must be heard if our interests are to be safeguarded. In all such rivalries as now exist there is one party whose claims are superior to all others. In this case Australia is that party. The principle underlying the Monroe doctrine existed long before Monroe lived. Territories not sufficiently developed for self- government should prima facie be associated with and controlled by the nearest country which' has a stable government," "While that is not all there is to our Monroe doc- trine, the principle of that doctrine justifies Aus- tralia in guarding against any of the islands within her geographical section falling into hands whose government and racial instincts are antagonistic to hers. Australia has the full right of self-protection, especially if she recognizes that when she exercises that right by taking control of islands populated by people she cannot at once take into her own citizen- ship she assumes an obligation to administer themI for the welfare and uplift of the people, even to the final extent of complete self-government or full citi- zenship if such an attainment is possible. The same obligation rests upon us in Sainoa.-St. Louis Globe- Democrat. JAPANESE LAND HOLDING 4A vague apprehension is in the minds of American people living east of the Rocky Mountains, lest the agitation in Califoriia against Japanese ownership of land in this country should lead to international complication. This is, of course, inspired by the vigorous protests of the Japanese against legislation now pending. It is probable, however, that the Japanese people themselves do not take their pro- testations too seriously. They have an elemental sense of humor, which must show them the anomaly of their position, for they are demanding of other nations rights as aliens which they themselves do not concede to foreigners in their own country. The only enduring basis of diplomatic negotia- tions is just mutual concession. There must b a willingness to give as well as take. Before Japan can expect to be taken seriously in its outcry against 'restrictions of Japanese land owners in Calif ornia or elsewhere in thiscountry, she must extend to Amer- icans the right to own land in Japan. She must enter any negotiations with reference to the status of her people in this cduntry, with clean hands, otherwise her protests must be regarded as mere petulance.--Detroit News. 11 FOR RENT W We have'a nice line of: TENNIS RACQUETS- $2.50 to $10.50 ALL GUARANTED CHAMPION TENNIS BALLS- 60c each SAUNDERS' On thel CANOE LIVERY Huron River "Ma" Failings 714 Monroe St. (Next to Cutting) NICE HOME COOKED MEALS 3 Meals pr. day $6.50 pr.wk.

A certain Mr. Cook volunteered to give his aid to the chaperone of this colyum so I dragged him down here to the office. Since then he has been sitting on the small of his back in the most comfortable chair with his feet on my desk and the most helpful re- mark he's made has been, "My Gawd, it's hot here, let's go to Whitmore."' Jack Johnson, who recently arrived in these parts from our neighboring country, Mex., North Amer., enjoys a distinction that few men in the eye of the public can boast of. He was one of those that didn't run for President. Jack is happy, though; there's better food in Chi- cago jails than in Mexican palaces. And more, too.
