still left a greater net Income for the

u<se of the government than It had

ever had before.

"For a long time it was thought

that, deprived of the opportunity of

securing customs house revenues

through the seizure of ports, révolu-

tion could not support themselves.

But after six or seven years of peace

trouble broke out again, and during

1914 and 1915 it became so serious

that the United States was forced to

Intervene in behalf of peace and to

demand, with marines on shore and

naval guns trained and pointed on the

ports, that tlie country return to a

state of quiet. And so today the

Dominicans, realizing that the Mon

roe doctrine is determined to afford

them protection, from their own ex

cesses, their own bitter passions and

blind purposes, have accepted the in

evitable and have secured the bless

ings of peace from without when they

could not attain that end themselves.

It is a reluctant acquiescence they

yield, but a wholesome one, none the

less.

•'It has not been without effort or

without expense, nor yet without the

actual sacrifice of blood and life that

our country has stepped in to play

ffio role of Good Samaritan to the

people of Santo Domingo, Haiti and

Nicaragua, who had lost the bless

ings of peace and were unable to re

gain them. In Haiti alone we lost one

officer and six marines and had a

number wounded. But out of this al

truistic effort are growing results of

which a nation that coverts no terri

tory, that seeks only its own security

and the welfare of its unfortunate

neighbors may well be proud.
