WILSON ALONE
MADE TREATY
SAYS LANSING
American League Plan
Never Submitted to
Big Five.

Secretary of State Lansing, be-
fore the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee yesterday. admitted that
most of the important decisions at
the Peace Conference were made
by President Wilson without con-
sultinC other members OF the Amer
lean delegation.
Many of the provisions in the
treaty which bind the United States
for years to come were undertaken
by the President, and the President
alone possesses the information con-
cerning the reasons for their adop-
tion. the secretary said. He ap-
proved this policy adopted by the
President.
1t was disclosed that the Presi-
dent carried this policy of secrecy
to the extent of cabling Premier
Clemenceau not to give the records
of the Peace Conference to the
French Senate when that body re-
quested the information. This was
done on Secretary Lansing's rec.
ommendation that such disclosures
might be Irritating" to the nations
representated in the Peace Con-
ference

The High Spots.

Here are some of the admissions
made by Secretary Lansing in his
testimony:
l. That at the time the Lansing
Ishii agreement was formulated he
did not know of the existence Of
the secret treaties which Japan had
made with Great Britain. France
Italy and Russia for the spoilation
of China.
>. That the American plan for a
league of nations was never pre-
sented to the Peace Conference, but
was discarded by President Wilson
in favor of the British plan drawn
by Gen. Smuts. Secretary Lansing
said he did not know how the Amer
ican plan differed from the plan
finally adopted
3. That the Shantung decision was
made by President Wilson alone in
the face Of a written statement signed
by Gen. Bliss and representing the
views of Bliss, Henry White and
Secretary Lansing. in opposition to
the award.
4. That Great Britain still recog-
nizes the secret treaties and holds
that they have not been abrogated
by the treaty of peace, although it
specifically provided in the treaty that
understanding in opposition to the
treaty" shall be annulled.
s. That Costa RiCa was invited by
France to participate in the confer
enCe and sign the treaty but was
kept out upon the demand of the
Uhted States because this country
has never recognized the Tinoco gov
ernment.

May Go on Strike.

w
AS a result of Secretary Lansing s
testimony, drastic action by the Re-
publicans. comprising a majority of
the committee. is contemplated. The
Republicans may decide to proceed
no further with the consideration of
the treaty until the information re-
quested of the President is given to
the committee.
Of extreme importance in Secretary
Lansing's testimony was his verifica-
ton of the report recently published
that President Wilson alone of the
American delegation was responsible
for the Shantung decision. Secretary
Lansing's responses to questions pro-
pounded by Senator Hiram johnson are
as follows:
You said that in drawing up the
treaty the one opinion you had in
mind was that expediency should not
overrule principle. Did that hold in
respect to the Shantung decision?"
Not entirely"
Gould Japan's signature to the
league of nations have beeh obtained
if YOU hadn't made the Shantuns de-
cision?"
Il think so.'t--
Even if Shantung had not been
given to Japan you would still have
had the league of nations?"
i think SO. undoubtedly"
