why such doubts should be enter
tanned. You will recall that when I
had the pleasure OF conference with
your committee and with the com.
mittee of the House of Representa-
uyes on foreign affairs at the White
House in March last, the questions
now most frequently asked about the
league of nations were all canvasSed,
with view to their immediate clari
hcation The covenant Of the league
was then in its first draft and subject
to revision. 1t was pointed out that
no express recognition was given to
the Monroe doctrine, that it was not
expressly provided that the league
should have no authority to act or to
express judgment on matters of
domestic policy That the right to
withdraw from the league was not
expressly recognized, and that the
constitutional rights of the congress
to determine all questions of peace
and war was not sufficiently safe
guarded On my return TO Paris all
these matters were taken up again by
the commission on the league of ma
tons and eyerp suggestion of the
United States was accepted.
The view of the United States with
regard to the questions l have men
toned had. in fact, largely been ac-
cepted by the commission and there
was supposed to be nothing incon-
sistent with them in the draft of the
covenant first adopted, the draft
which was the SUBJECT OF our discus
sion in March, but no objection was
made to anything explicitly in the
text that all had supposed to be i'm
plicit in it.
The Monroe Doctrine is expressly
mentioned as an understanding which
is in no way to be impaired or inter-
fered with by anything contained in
the covenant and the expression
regional understanding like the Mon
roe Doctrine" was used not because
any one of the Conference thought
there was any comparable agreement
anywhere else in existence or in con-
templating, but only because it was
thought best to avoid the appearance
of dealing in such a document with
the policy of a single nation,
With regard to domestic questions, Ar

structed in whole or in part by Fed
eral aid, for which 5000, 200, 900 in adj
dition to the former appropriation was
given TO the States under the same bill,
All that the States must do to acquire

tons, is TO pay the loading and freight
charges.

acquired practically free by the States,

toned to States only upon request OF
