Conference on Treaty.

The New York Legislature will send
committee of the Republican and
Democratic leaders to meet a similar
committee OF the New Jersey Lsgis!a-
ture to confer on amendments to the
treaty with New Jersey. Necessity for
such a treaty dates way back to the
year 1894, when Charles II. made a
grant OF land to the Duke of York, CIV
ing control of waters OF the Hudson all
the way to the Jersey shore instead OF to
the middle of the stream as is usually
done.
The plan TO create a joint "harbor
authority" with power to issue bonds
for improvements was broached because
that II was necessary to find means of
improving the harbor without making
additional charges on the city or the
State either.

PARIS, Jan. 30.-President Wilson
has suggested two classes Of manJia-
tories for governing the German colo
Dies under the league of nations plan.
For the civilized colonies the nation
to hold the mandate would be Sc
lected through some expression Of
the will of the inhabitants, while for
the uncivilized territories the league
would choose a governing nation,
such choice to be made on geograph-
ical, economic and military grounds.
These mandates could be made per
petual unless revoked for cause.
The feeling prevails in diplomatic
circles that this experiment would be
risky. 1t is pointed out that the
Monroe Doctrine would be involved,
and both Premiers Lloyd George and
Clemenceau have questioned whether
the Presidents colonial principle
would not In some sense involve all
abrogation Of that doctrine. particu-
larly as applied to the lesser nation
alities in the American hemisphere.

difficulties involving those islands
instead of leaving the adjustment TO

The President is understood ~

an extension Of the Monroe Doctrine,
his friends here iuSiSting that the
Monroe Doctrine Would not be i'm

In the Senate are groundless.

keenly that an cncr0a"hment upon
the Monroe Doctrine would give tine
Republicans tremendous issue. The

Welt is removed from the field Of

common heritage Of all Americans.
America would honor Roosevelt
the man in order that his manly quail
tiles may be fused into the life and
spirit Of American youth. Undiluted
honesty and square dealing, uncom-
mon wisdom and foresight, dauntless
courage and tireless energy, service
and sacrifice, born of love OF Amer
lea that with him amounted to pas
sion-it is to these qualities which
one man has been able to embody,
that the people of America seek to
erect a permanent memorial. All citi-
zens, regardless of party, who believe
that the memory of such man will
inspire the future generations OF
Americans are earnestly invited to
assist by their energy and their gifts"
