the president answers critics. DEEDS MUST BACK THEIR WORDS. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. WASHINGTON, September 2. (Received September 5, at 9.7 a.m.) President Roosevelt, speaking at Proctor, said that Monroeism was not an aggressive policy, but it was necessary in order to enable America to develop peaceably.
