Roots Letter 70 lodas


Mr.. Root writes to Senator Lodge:
Il am clear that. II the covenant
has to be considered with the peace
terms included, the Senate ought to
include in its resolution Of consent to
the ratification an expression OF such
reservation and understandings a
will cure 20 far ~ possible the Dc.
fects which I have pointed out. You
will probably be unable to do any
thing now about the system Of arbi-
tration and the development. Of inter-
national law. You can. however, put
into the resolution Of consent a res
ervation refusing to agree to Article
x, and think you should do so; you
can clarity the meaning Of the with
drawal article. and you can also in
clude in your resolution the sub
stance Of the third amendment which
I proposed In my letter to Mr.. Hays
Of March 20, relating to purely Amer.
lean questions. and I think you
should do 80. These clauses Of the
resolution shape themselves in my
own mind as follows:

New York Tribune Agrees

New York Tribune Agrees
The New York Tribune appears to
accept the Root plan at surface
value. for it says:
1.-THE method proposed by Mr..
Root for dealing with tho covenant
will achieve these ends:
l. Save what is good in the plan. The
ans ~
cur. the council will perform the admin
istrative duties laid on 1t. and will pro-
vide for as much delay before war as II
ratified in gros.
2. Remove, SO far az concerns this
country. obligation to guarantee exist
ing national boundaries. or to part:ci-
pate in petty .quarrels or to impair the
Monroe Doctrine.
g. Hasten and not delay. an exchange
of the peace ratifications. No reassem-
blage of the peace conference will be
necessary. There Is choice other than
that between unconditional ratification
and to to tas xhss
Often have we inserted reservations in
ratification resolutions. See both the
Hague ratifications. the Algeciras Iati-
iication. the Tat ~! q the co 9

ing on such reservations, has upheld
: their validity. 1t has accepted inter-
pretations given in advances to treaty
clauses. and silently consented to. as de-
claring their true sense when before

legislative branches of our government
Mr.. Root thinks the league in its
judicial aspects should provide for a
development of arbitration. inter-
national law and the judicial princi-
pie generally, and In its political as
poets should make it more clear
peaceful nations are to be protected.
But these affirmative things cannot be
secured except by recasting the
whole instrument. with the consent
Of other nations. So he forgoes
these and accepts the good at hand
while safeguarding against the evil.
In 1907 Mr.. Root. then Secretary Of
State, instructed the, American dele
CATION to The Hague to favor the
adoption Of resolution by the con-
ference providing for the holding Of
further conferences within fixed Pc
RODS and arranging machinery by
which such conferences may be
called and the terms Of the program
may .b@ arranged. without awaiting
any new or specific initiative on the
part of the powers or any one of
them" Offered this much now, Mr..
Root would clinch the offer; 50 he is
for ratification, being seasoned
enough in life to realize that realiza-
tons seldom measure up to the hopes
of the sanguine.
We hope the Tribune is right, but
the safSst way to get a League of
Nations 10 to get a working model
upon which all nations agree to ap-
point able workmen who will unite
In perfecting the instrument. There
is no reason why a League Council

tive Of each and all the powers az is

ence leaves Oh. Then why delay

up to III. Prssidsnt's Conscience.

A cablegram was forwarded Tues.
day from San Francisco to President
Wilson by the California State
Viticultural Commission appealing to
him to proclaim rehabilitation i'm
mediately on signing the peace
treaty, In order to remove wartime
prohibition. This action was taken
as the result Of q decision made at a
meeting Of the commission last Janu-
airy. Loss Of $12.ooo.ooo. the mes
sage states. hinges on the action
taken.-News dispatch.
Never mind the meaning or the
loss to the homes Of poor fools ad.
dicted to booze stopping. just save
the money for wine makers and the
German beer gang, Mr.. President!
You cannot save millions for the
booze interests much longer. Mr..
President. 50 now Is your time to
make good with them-and to undo
with moral forces all the progress
you have made In their respect!
They tell us in Wednesdays news
reports that rumsellers are renewing
their licenses on the strength Of a
Tip" from those close to the Presi-
dent, that he will remove the war
prohibition ban. We hope that is
not true, Mr.. President. You cannot
afford to evsrIastinsly tie up your
record with an immoral and dying
traffic. traffic that has been out
lawed, convicted and sentenced by
an overwhelming majority Of the
American people.

Unfoundsd Statements

The oft-repeated and wholly un-
founded declaration that the Cove
nant violates every principle of'the
country outrases the common sense
Of intelligent people and gives the
lie to many Of the ablest lawyers ana
jurists Of the land. Mr.. Roots plain
phrases must make the repeaters Of
such chatter feel small. Mr.. Root
says:
