Land Grants Involved
"The questions involved are too
great to be settled by the mere calling

Citing questions which would be
brought before the league, Senator
Reed said that among them might be
a grant by Mexico of land to Japan, or
sale of Colombia of land to some for
eign power which could erect a fort
less to command the Panama canal.
The disarmament provisions of the
league charter, the Missouri senator
asserted, would give the executive
council absolute power to limit Ameri-
