ENATE COMMITTEE
AMENDS LEAGUE
ody Votes Curb on Great Britain
in the Pact.
S. is GIVEN EQUAL VOICE
lody Alters League to End Majority
Of England and Observation-Disclosures
of Britain Is Avoided in
Resolution.

Washington, Aug. 30.-An amend
nent tc the peace treaty providing
hat the United States shall have as
many representatives as the British
empire in the League of Nations as
sembly was adopted by the senate
foreign relations committee.
The vote was to 8, Senator Nc
Cumber, Republican, North Dakota,
standing with the Democrats against
the amendment. The amendment
would not reduce the six votes held
by Great Britain and its dominions,
but simply would provide the United
States have equal representation.
The amendment was the first to be
adopted by the committee relating to
the league covenant. 1t was presented
by Senator Johnson, Republican, OF
California.
Applies to Council Also.
The amendment also contains the
same provision regarding the league
council, the effect of which would be
to offset the possibility that Great Bri-
tain and one Of her dominiOns might
be represented In the council at one
time.
In the council there are to be nine
members, one from each Of the five
big powers and the other from
smaller states to be selected from time
to time.
Under the amendment the following
provisO would be inserted in the cove
nant:
"That when any member of the
league has or possesses self-governing
dOminiOns or colonies or parts Of en-
pire which are also members of the
league, the United States shall have
votes in the assembly or council or
the league numerically equal to the
aggregate vote of such member of the
league and It's self-governing domin-
ions and colonies and parts Of empire
in the council or assembly Of the
league"
Two Other Alterations.
The committee also adopted two
other amendments, providing that the
American representatives on the rep
aratiOns commission shall vote only
when specifically instructed to do so
by this government, and that none OF
the British dominiOns may take part
In deciding a dispute under the league
to which one of them is a party.
The PREPARATIONS amendment was
proposed by Senator Fall, Republican,
New Mexico, and the other by Sena-
tor Moses, Republican, New Hamp-
shire. The vote in each case was 9
to 8, the Democrats and Senator Nc
Cumber voting in the negative.
The Moses amendment followed a
suggestion made by former President
Taft, and was considered necessary
by the Republican members to pre-
clude any possibility that the British
dominiOns could act together to pre-
vent any one of them from being over
thrown in a decision by the league.
The PREPARATIONS commission, which
will have charge of collecting Ger
many's reparations bill, is one of the
few which would have an American
representative under the amendment
adopted earlier in the week to reduce
American representation on such
commissions.
