should be excluded from the treaty.
2. That Article 1 of the covenant
for the league of nations should be
amended so as to modify the terms
of withdrawal from the league.
8. II effect, that a new clause
should be added TO the covenant for
the league of nations setting forth:
That nothing therein contained
shall be construed to imply relin-
uuishment by the United States of
America of its traditional attitude
toward purely american questions, or
to require the submission of its pol
| icy regarding questions which it
deems to be purely American Ques-
ttions to the decision or recommenda-
tions Of other powers (whatever this
may mean.)
The powers of the Senate of the
United States with reference to trea-
! ties are well set forth by Mr.. Justice
Brown in his concurring opinion in
1.-THE Diamond Rings" 1S3 u. s. 1872.
Referring to the resolution of the
Senate purporting to construe the
treaty between Spain and the United
States, made upon the conclusion OF
the Spanish-American War, Mr.. JUS
tice Brown says:
To be efficacious, such resolution
must be considered either I'D as an
amendment to the treaty, or Cd as
legislative act qualifying or modify
ing the treaty. It is neither.
I cannot be regarded As part OF

MIR. Roots Suggestion

the treaty, since it received neither
the approval of the President nor the
consent of the other contracting
power.
A treaty in its legal sense is defin-
ed by Bouvier as compact between
two or more Independent nations
with view to the public welfare"
e Law Dict, 1866, and by Webster
as IAN agreement, league or contract
between two or more nations or SOW
ereigns, formally signed by commits
sioners properly authorized, and sol
emnly ratified by the several soyer-
eigns or the supreme power of each
State"
In it's essence it is contract. 1t
differs from an ordinary contract on
" in being an agreement between in
dependent States instead Of private
parties. Foster VS.. Nelson. 2 Pet.

798, 5 Sup. CT. Rep. Eat. BY the
Constitution Cart. 2, Par. %, the
President ''shall have power by and
with the advice and consent of the
Senate, to make treaties. provided
two-thirds of the Senators present
concur"
r. Obviously the treaty must contain
the whole contract between the par
ties, and the power of the Senate is
limited to ratification of such terms
as have already been agreed upon be
tween the President, acting for the
United States, and the commission
ers of the other contracting power.
The Senate has no right to ratify
the treaty and introduce new terms
into it which shall be obligatory up
on the other power, although it may
refuse its ratification, or make such
ratification conditional upon the
adoption of amendments to the trea-
! ty. If, for instance, the treaty with
Spain had contained provision in
stating the inhabitants of the Philip
pines as citizens of the United States
the Senate might have refused to
iratify it until this provision was
stricken out. But it could not, in
my opinion, ratify the treaty and
then adopt a resolution to admit the
Inhabitants of the Philippine Islands
to the privileges of citizenship of
the United States. Such resolution
would be imperative as an amend
ment to the treaty, since it had not
received the assent of the President
or the Spanish commissioners.
But more important than all, un-
der the law laid down by the SUI
preme Court of the United States, the
treaty could not take effect as to the
United States until the proposed
amendments had been concurred in
by Germany, and what reason is
there to believe that Germany would
lconcur? It's interests would appar-
emily lie to the contrary. By non
concurring it would either compel
the United States to withdraw from
the league of nations altogether and
to establish a separate negotiated
and not dictated peace, or 1t would
force upon the United States the hu-
initiation of withdrawing its pro-
posals.
By the time these amendments
were proposed the treaty would prob
ably have been ratified by Germany
and three of the great powers, and
by its terms would have taken eff
feet, and Germany could not be
compelled to concur.
The adoption of Mr.. Roots sug-
gestions, therefore, would apparent
ly put the United States In false
and humiliating position.

(By Henry w. Williams. in Evening

As the Senate appears to have fall
len back on the suggestions of Mr..
Root. it would seem to be well to
consider the situation which will
result if such suggestions be follow
ed. Mr.. Root in his letter to Sena-
tor Lodge recommends that the Sen
ate should act upon the treaty of
peace as follows:
The Senate OF the United States
advises and consents to the ratifca-
tion of the said treaty with the fol-
lowing reservations and understand
ings to be fade a part of the instru-
ment of ratification

tions or amendments:

HARVEST FROM UNDER OCEAN
KeIp Has Been Proved Of Such Value
In Industry That II Is Now Care
fully Gathered.

A good deal has been written about
the use of the seaweed. kelp. for the
production of potash, and a good deal
of extravagant dreaming has been in
dulged in. However, the kelp industry
has put itself On II solid and prosper
Gus footing. and gold in the shape OF
the Indispensable potash is being har.
vested from the waters of the Pacific.
The cutters or harvesters are ocean
going boats and stay out at sea all the
time. while the barges carry the mac
Grated kelp back to the wharf, where II
is pumped from the holds into fer
menting tanks. Foreign matter such
as bolts, nuts, etc, brought in with the
kelp are removed by electromagnetic
before the pumps are reached.
Harvesting consists Il cutting the
plant about six feet below the surface
OF the water. Ii has actually been
found that this treatment improves the
growth and stand of the beds To such
an extent that they may be cut over
about every 90 days. The area cut at
present extends from Point Conception
south to the Mexican line.
The potash is all used for chemical
purposes, owing to its unique purity.
and there Is not enough of il TO sup
ply this demand. The total quantity of
the pure product is not great enough
to be considered seriously for fertilizer
purposes. There are, however, a mum
potash which moun to quite a ton
mage.

BUILDERS WANTED.

The worlds greatest need today is builders. Builders of all kinds have
vast work before them. Statebunders are needed in Russia to erect a
permanent structure over the ruins of despotism. Builders of houses,
roads. bridges and mills ire needed in France and Belgium, where the ruth
less Hun spread desolation beyond the imagination of any la hitherto
capable OF pcturing wreck and ruin.
Business builders are needed in America, where a Socialisuca1y inclined
administration has wrought havoc with the railroads, the telegraph and tee-
phone lines and with every other industry to the extent that it "a thrown
under its control If you wish to serve your country now, be a builder of
some sort in the great work of restoration. First, W e must restoe govern
ment by law, which has been almost wrecked by the personal government
established during the past six years. We must restore American national
ism in the place of the ideaIshc internadonalism which impractical theo-
rtts have tried to set up in this. country.
We must restore opportunity for individual initiative which has been
torn down by al administration that undertakes to limit and curtal Ameri-
can enterprises. We must build a merchant marine and rebuild the trans
portaton and communication organizations. We must reestablsh American
industry o a permanent peace basis, and build a foreign trade founded upon
business principles. not upon paternalsm. We must construct loyal Ameri-
can citizens ut IF several millions of men and women who are still aliens
and not in full sympathy with u government and its institutions. This is a
reconstruction period, in every sense of the word, and there is endless oppor-
tunty for builders.
