WORLD DOMINATION
IMPERIALISTIC POLICY.
DENUNCIATION OF U.S.A. THE MONROE DOCTRINE. (United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph Copyright.) (Australian Press Association.) Received 10.2.3 a.m. to-da.y. LONDON, July 17. A scathing attack on the United States’ imperialistic .policy was made by Mr Benjamin O. Marsh, managing director of the Farmers’ National Council in the United States at a conference on imperialism at Oaxton Halil. He said: “The Monroe doctrine was not conceived in altruistic sympathy with South American peoples, but with the object of reserving them for exploitation by the land of the free. United, States had embarked on a. definite policy of world financial and economic domination. While most of the rest of the world, was fighting for world trade and commercial supremacy in the years 1914-1928, the ruling classes, whose capital was Wall Street, not, Washington, were cold-bloodedly figuring out oil which horse to put their money. Unlike Lord Beacons field's opinion, expressed after the Crimean W ar, we did pick the right hor.se as a] sure winner and then continued to: ride both winners and losers.’’
