HEATED DEBATE
IN THE SENATE ON
STRANGL|NGL LEAGUE
Republicans Accused of "Stock-
ing" Committee on For
eign Resolutions.

WASHINGTON. June 1s.-Adop-
ton Of the Knox resolution regarding
the League OF Nations and the Peace
Treaty would be interpreted as an
uncalled for effort by the Senate 70
dictate to the Peace Conference, SEN
ntor Thomas, Democrat. Colorado.
said to-day in opposing the measure.
Tho Colorado Senator argued that
the proposal that the Senate declare
itself now against accepting the
league as entertained with the peace
terms was improper and unwise.
81 believe II is not only improper
for the Senate TO adopt or reject IT,"
said Senator Thomas. 'Tbut II is also
unwisc. at this time, to go on record
regarding H. As part OF the treaty
making power, We should aot attempt
at this time 20 advise the Peace Con-
gress at Paris, either OF our own
views concerning its work or as 10
what the treaty should contain"
Senator Thomas charged that the
Foreign Relations Committee was or
ganiEed so Il would be hostile 20 the
League. Senator Williams, Missis-
slppi, interrupted 20 declare that "the
committee was stacked like a deck OF
cards against President Wilson and
the League."
He drew from Senator Moses. New
Hampshire, a prompt denial OF the
charge. Williams said Republicans
left only one pro-Lcague Republican
on the committee.
THAT was because you didn't dare
put him on" shouted Williams. ''The
only purpose OF this Knox resolution
Is 10 defeat the League. and you krDw
It. You say you merely want more
time to think about II, when, II you
had brains enough to think, you've
had plenty Of time"
Thomas. continuing, said the Knox
resolution and the Borah resolution
requesting a hearing for Irish peace
delegates both were intended solely
to embarrass and hamber President
Wilson.
I'VE didn't go into the war TO OBJ
tain independence for Irish Sim
Felners," said Thomas.
\ Before Senator Thomas spoke,
Senator Spencer. Republican, of Mis-
sourl. who had not previously indi-
Gated his views regarding the League
OF Nations. introduced a resolution
proposing that the Senate declare
that under any league plan adopted
application OF the Monroe Doctrine
must be reserved entirely for ma
tional determination. The resolution
went over without action.
The Spencer resolution would de-
clare the Monroe Doctrine IAN essen
tial national policy and that "the
necessity and extent OF Its applica-
tion and enforcement are matters to
be determined alone by the United
States"
The tariff, immigration and like in
tarnal questions would be declared
matters TO be determined entirely
by the country in which they arise
and under no circumstances ques-
tions for settlement under the League
OF Nations"
The resolution would declare also
shat the United States cannot bind
itself In advance to either make wal
in the future or TO send its army and
| navy Into other lands for purposes
of control"
