By the Associated Press

Washington, Feb. 22.-Support for the
Republican attacks In the Senate upon
the proposed leageu OF nations came
from the Democratic side today, when
Senator Reed, of Missouri, Democrat,
delivered a prepared address in dcnun-
citation of the plan.

Reed ass erted. would, through the
league be largely displaced by a gov
controlled by European mon
archs and Asiatic despots." He sup
ported the charge of Senator Borah. of
Idaho. Republican, that the league
would abrogate the Monroe Doctrine, In
volve America in all-world conflicts and
compel submission of vital American
questions to a foreign tribunal.
England, Senator Reed asserted, vir-
tually would dominate the league, and
on al, questions, he insisted, the United
States would be overwhelmingly out
voted.

Denouncing the league as a movement
Of decentralization, Senator Reed as
serted hat the fangs' OF Bolshevism
were plainly visible in the league con-
stitution, The provision requiring Amer

"monstrous."
The league charter, Senator Reed
also declared. plainly conficted with

he would reserve discussion OF that
point unttl some future time.

people and partly by kings and em-

The answer TO these questions is in

the proposed constitution Of the league
of nations.

republic.
America entered this war a complete

democracy come under the control,

monarchs or foreign Bolshevik?'
Sherman Criticixes Taft
Former President Taft's ppo of
the league was criticized by Senator
Sherman, of Illinois. Republican, in a

Reed spoke. Senator Sherman presented
a letter from a constituent In which Mr.,

amusement of Senators and the over
