It
is therefore essential that the countries within
[Latin America] shall be removed from the jeopardy involved by heavy foreign debt and chaotic national finances and from the ever present danger of international complications due to disorder at home. Hence, the United States has been glad to encourage and support American bankers who were willing to lend a helping hand to the financial rehabilitation of such countries because this financial rehabilitation and the protection of their customhouses from being the prey of would-be dictators would remove at one stroke the menace of foreign creditors and the menace of revolutionary disorder.”
The
position of the United States in the moral, intellectual, and material relations of the family of nations should be a matter of vital interest to every patriotic citizen. The national prosperity and power impose upon us duties which we cannot shirk if we are to be true to our ideals. The tremendous growth of the export trade of the United States has already made that trade a very real factor in the industrial and commercial prosperity of the country. With the development of our industries, the foreign commerce of the United States must rapidly become a still more essential factor in its economic welfare

"I
have been criticized a good deal about the Philippines, but I don't deserve it. . . . [because] there was nothing left for us to do but to take them all, and to educate the Filipinos, and uplift and civilize and Christianize them. . . ."
Take up the White Man's
burden-
Send forth the best ye
breed-
Go bind your sons to exile
To serve your captives' need;
To wait in heavy harness,
On fluttered folk and
wild-
Your new-caught, sullen peoples,
Half-devil and half-child

Whether we desire it or not, we must henceforth recognize that we have international duties no less than international rights…. More and more, the increasing interdependence and complexity of international relations render it incumbent... to insist on the proper policing of the world.”
