Berlin, Feb. 1.—The Keelnischo
VelkszeiUing, the organ of the Cleri
cal Center Party, the greatest politi
cal power in Germany, contains an
tide denouncing what It terms the in-
(erferrence of America in Morocco,
and says, if the United States pro
claims the * Monroe Doctrine in the
Eastern hemisphere, America's de
mand for the open door in Morocco is
hypocritical, as America has suppress
the open doon in the Phillipines, Porto
Rico and Panama. In fact the United
States is supporting Germany in Mo
rocco is outweighed by the danger of
American interference in European
pffuirs; that the European powers
ought to combine to exclude America
from afTairs which are purely Europe
an, but instead of it being so, the pow
ers compete with one another in pay
ing homage to the United States.
