LOWELL SUMS UP
Mr.. Lowell summed up his review
OF the league in these words:
THE strength of such league
lies In the obligations assumed d.
rectly by the several members OF the
league; and this is both the most eff
fective and least adventurous method
of preventing war.
"The opposition of the league" he
continued, "set up an imaginary
scarecrow OF their own creation and
then fired at 1t with great satisfaction
to themselves. If the United Staes
is no subject to the order of the ex-
ecutive council, 1t is senseless to talk
OF our being ruled by body In which
we have only one vote out OF nine"
He discussed the various obJec-
ptions that had oeen raised. saying in
part:
IAN objection brought forward by
the opponents q the league is that
Asiatic immigration, the policy OF a
protective tariff. or some other mat
ter OF vital domestic interest may be
brought before the executive council
for inquiry and decided against us II
would seem to ne clear that the franz
ers OF the covenant did not intend to
submit to the council the internal AT.
fairs Of the membrs Of the league,
and II there is any serious doubt on
the question. there will doubtless be
no objection TO making 1t perfectly
clear.
THE GREAT BUGBEAR
Coming to the Monroe doctrine,
which. he said. was the greatest
bugbear of ALL" Mr.. Lowell express,
ed the opinion that the United States
would be justified in asking for q
clause in the covenant that no foreign
{ power should acquire any possession
on the American continents or ;ht
adjacent islands. However, he said
: the covenant extended the doctrin,
lover the world and its adoption
would relieve the United States itsel
of any suspicion of imperialistic de
signs on its American neighbors."
4 DR.. Lowell called on his opponsn
to declare first; Whether he woul,
! or would not vote for the covenan
| provided it was amended as the sen
ator wished, and second. what amend
ments he desired.
Il Departing from his set address t
reply to his opponent DR.. Lowell
said;
I'VE both feel that this covenan
i is las Il stands, defective, but the dill
ference is that feel that when thos
defects have been removed. that cove
nant. with those defects cured, ougt
to be ratified and he does not te
us whether he thinks so or not"
wAsHINGTON's FAREWELL
ADDRESS
Referring to the farewell addrci
of George Washington the speak,
said
1T was a great document In 1
day and so was the Ten Commanr
ments."
In developing the point that un
yersal arbitration treaties would ha'
prevented Germany from precipita
ing this war, DIR. Lowell remark,
that such system might have pr
vented our fighting Spain In 1898. b

II am engaged in dealing with the
league that has been presented to
the people OF the United States. I
hope from my heart is will be amend
ed. / hope we shall have league
in proper form, properly prepared.
hope It will be done-done some
where before the end is reached. In
my belief it will be done somewhere,
and not in Paris.
"The Senate, under the constitu-
ton, has the right to advise and
consent. II the president of the I'm
tied States had done what other pres
idents had done; II he had laid that
before the senate; If he had follow
ed the example of other presidents
then we could have taken construc-
tive action It was done by Andrew
jackson. by Gen. Grant, by George
Washington and Abraham Lincoln.
And In the path that George WASH
ington and Abraham Lincoln have
walked there is no man too great
to tread.
IF the president had laid that
draft before the senate as these 9th
err presidents have done; n he had
said to the senate: 4 submit this
gdraft to you for your advice, hope
for your approval. and for such sug-
bgestions as you may have to make,
he would have had the amendments
laid before him to present to the
peace conference in Paris. The bat.
Hle would have been more than hall
won by the mere submission.
HE not only did not lay II befor,
the constitutional body which is en-
titled to advise him. but he does no
call the senate together now to con
slider 1t. II they want to know IL
: Paris what amendments were requir
: ed, call together the constitutions
advisers of the president, and tn
amendments will be drafted and sent
. But one senator cannot speak will
authority for the entire body. Cal
them together and the amendment
win be presented. and IL they ar
adopted the treaty will be ratified Il

POSTWAR ISSUES

Secretary RedfieId Warns
Against BoIshevism and
Other Obstacles.

NEW YORK, January t5-While
asserting that the United States
should free its commerce as quickly
as possible of all restrictions and
build up it's domestic and foreign
trade. William c. Redfeld. Secretary
of Commerce, declared in an address
here last night that apostles of
hurry" must beware of bolshevism
and many other postwar obstacles
which can best be removed without
haste.
Speaking at a meeting held under
the auspices of the council of foreign
relations, Mr.. Redfield asserted that,
with the support of Congress. his de-
partment is prepared to sustain COM
merce and industry in both the do
nestle and foreign fields. providing
both n scientific and commercial serv-
ice at home Cooperating with the
great commercial service abroad"
1T is. we venture to think. a unique
governmental organization. better
equipped with men and apparatus
than anything of it's kind in the
world he said. Its future depends
upon whether the vision of Congress
shall be such as will measure it at its
true value"
War Problems Pressing.
He warned his audience, however
that while in a military sense, the

No Clash With Monroe Doctrine.

Asked what effect the formation of
4 league Of nations would have upon
the Monroe doctrine, Lord Robert as
serted he could see no conflict with
the doctrine. Hypothetical questions
were raised as to what would happen
ID case Mexico or South American
country did something that caused
trouble with the league and Lord
Robert replied:
Then ! think an arrangement could
be made by which America could act in
behalf Of the league.
Regarding the Submission of the CEN
trail powers and their allies to the
league. Lord Robert said they should
be permitted IF they showed an in
clination to do the right thing"
Germany Must Repair Damage.
Speaking OF Germany. he said:
We must await events. II she
turns over q new leaf and tries to re-
PAIR the damage she has done there

Agrees With President Wilson.

Lord Robert said that the league
hight in some cases take over adj
ministrative control of certain ter
ritories of great International inter-
est. He said that Palestine and Con-
stantinople might be in this class.
He stated that he accepted President
Wilson'S view that the league must
be constituted by the present peace
congress. adding: otherwise it will
become an impossibility."
Lord Robert felt that the peace
congress should get some approval
ofsprinciples at the beginning of the
meeting, but was of the opinion that
the details should be worked out with
care by committees which should re-
poftcto the peace congress.

BoIshevism Uncertain.

I'VE must remember also that the
possible problems of force are not
wholly gone. Germany seems in
chaos; Russia we know is SO. Who
win say today what is the future
of bolshevisn? Dare we permit a
food of anarchy to sweep over CEN
trail as well as eastern Europe to
threaten the peoples who have fought
by our side, and, if this is done, then
certainly later to threaten us? Who
can answer the question whether 1t
would he wise or even safe now to
reduce ourselves to comparative mill
tary weakness until we know more of
the nature and purpose of the forces
which have overwhelmed one empire
and threatened the successor of an
other?
1--WE must consider also that the
newly born nations are but barely
born. They need the esta blishing of
credits before they can become large
markets"
After asserting that foreign and
domestic commerce are not two and
separate. but the one and the same,
though under different phases" Mr..
Redfeld declared that. despite rapid
demohilization of the American Army,
there is as yet no serious unemploy-
mont

All of Allies Favor It.

Questioned as to the attitude of the
allies as a whole toward the league.
Lord Robert said that every one of
them favored a league of some sort
and that they were not separated by
any vital point. AS to the scope of
the league, he said there were still
many purely legal disputes between
nations which he thought ought to be
settled by an arbitration tribunal out
side the league.
In discussing the probable efficacy
of the plan to force the nations to bring
thair disputes before the tribunal of the
league, Lord Robert declared:
III. we had had a conference on the
reply of Serbia to Austria and had not
allowed them to fight for set period.
there would have been no war. If
The situation had been known to the
world, no action could have forced
its people to fight.

Would at Least Limit Wars.

Lord Robert would not go SO far as
to say there would be no more wars.
but he expressed confidence that they
would be confined to the Immediate
disputantS.
Lord Robert said there should be
an international secretariat operating
permanently to carry on the routine
, business between meetings of the
main international tribunal. The main
tribunal would meet periodically, per-
haps every month or six weeks, to
handle matters of moment.
Lord Robert attached greatest i'm
portance to international cooperation
in all on-controversiai matters. This
cooperation. he said. should be pro-
noted to the utmost and would have
it's effect on financial affairs, the de-
velopment of shipping and all inter-
national waterways. He pointed out
that this would make for international
peace. In this connection Lord Robert
stated he believed every nation had a
right to an outlet to- the sea.

Take the problem of food" he said.
TIT is more pressing today than ever:

remember that conditions seem to be
such that we who would trade must
also furnish the means to pay the

there is still a shortage of labor

tant that we have work to do for
labor and for factory, and that We
look wherever we may for markets
at home and abroad"

Austria, because of her internal con-
dition, is not yet ready for the
league, Lord Robert said. Dealing
with another specific instance, he de-
clared it would be an injustice to ex-
c1ude Bohemia, saying: "She was not
to blame for the war and is pro-
gressiye."

PARIS. Tuesday, January 1a---Lord
Robert Cecil, who discussed with
American journalists tonight his
views as to the work of a league of
nations, had little to say relative to
the limitation Of ornaments. He ex-
pressed the opinion, however. that the
league of nations certainly would
provide for the limitation and de-
crease of present ornaments"
He declared that this feature of
the work to be done is being given
deepest consideration, although no
definite agreement has as yet been
reached. He said that the league,
IL formed. would do away with all
treaties inconsistent with its tenets,
including compacts providing for a
balance of power.

is rs to why the Allies, and especially
the United States, did not have more
