Palmer Words and More
Direct Action to Be Used
WILSON LEAVES
GOLDEN GATE
President Scheduled to De-
liver Addresses at
San Diego.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

San Francisco, Sept. 19.-Qnterna-
tional News Service )-President
Wilson bade farewell to northern
California after addressing a capac-
ity audience at the big Oakland
Auditorium last evening. The presi-
dental special left at 10 pm. over
the Southern Pacific lines for San
Diego, where the president is sched-
uled to deliver addresses late this
afternoon and tonight.
Today Californians interested in
the league of nations are sending
broadcast the questions and answers
propounded the president by the re-
gional executive in favor of peace,
embodying points on which critics of
the proposed covenant have entered
their criticism.
The questions and answers, con-
densed, were:
l, Do the six votes of Great Brit
ain allow her to gain control of the
leagues actions?
Answer-No, because no matter
except the admittance of new mem
bers can thus be decided without
unanimous vote, ana the vote of the
United States could prevent any ma
tion or set of nations gaining control.
2. Under the league, can foreign
countries order American troops to
foreign countries?
Answer-No. The right of con-
gress to determine such matters is
in nowise impaired.
g. What effect will the league have
in forwarding or hindering the final
restoration of Shantung to China?
Answer-The league of nations will
have a very powerful 'ect in effect
ing the final restoration Of Shantung
and no other instrument already of
action can be substituted which can
bring that result about.
4. Is there anything in the league
Of nations or the peace treaty which
imposes upon the United States any
moral or otherwise, to
support England in any way in case
of revolt in Ireland?
Answer-There is not. The only
guarantee contained in the covenant
is against external aggression, and
those who framed the covenant We're.
scrupuious1y careful in no way to fnE
ferfere with what they regarded as
the sacred rights of self determine
ton.
