REVISED LEAGUE
UNACCEPTABLE.
DECLARELODGE
New Covenant Worse Than
Old, Says Republican
Leader
By Associated Press,

Washington, May 20.-Senator
Lodge, Republican leader and chair
man of the foreign relations COM
mittee. in new statement declares
that the revised League of Nations
Els unacceptable" and predicted it
would not be accepted by the ma
jority of the Senate without amend
ment.
Characterizing the new league
covenant as included in the peace
treaty as distinctly worse than the
old and more dangerous to the
peace of the world and to American
rights and interests" Senator
Lodge declared that one of the sug-
gestions from the Senate or from
Elihu Root had been carried out.
Senator Lodges statement fol-
lows in part:
so, far as I can judge-and I
have had conversations with many
Senators, including members of both
parties-1 am satisfied that ma
jority of the Senate feel very stong-
ly that the league as now present
ed must receive amendment. that
in its present form, without anv
change, it Is unacceptable and would
not be accepted.
ITO say that the amendments put
forward in the Senate and those
proposed and formulated by Mr..
Root on the suggestion of the State
Department have been met is with
out any foundation. Not ore of
the suggestions of the Senate, not
one of the mendments proposed
by Mr.. Root, has been carried out.
Some have been entirely rejected,
and where there is an appearance
of their having been adopted en-
animation shows that the new form
is distinctly worse than the old.
''As to the League of Nations, the
American people must know just
what are to be asked to agree to.
BY that league they are invited to
take the gravest steps ever taken
by the United States and no organ
lzed clamor, no manufactured pres
sure of any kind will swerve the
Senate from it's high duty of lay
ing before the American people ex-
actly what the league involves and
what it means to the United States,
and to the future peace of the
world"

German People Refuse
to Mourn Peace Terms

Paris, May 20. The week of
mourning in Germany decreed by
the government because of the terms
of the peace theaty appears to have
met with little success. The Ger
man musicians in particular seem to
be Tesentful over the order as a
measure which prevented them from
earning their daily bread. while the
Taeglische Rundschau and the Ber-
lin Tageblatt admit that the mourn
ing was far from being completely
effective.
Reports are that nearly all the
music halls remained open and that
in some places the people danced all
night. One bit of pungent comment
comes from the Volksblatt, of Halle
which says
'It is not now, but on August 1,
1914, that general mourning should
have been ordered in Germany"

FOCH HAS PLAN
FOR ADVANCE IF
GERMANS BALK
Lays Proposed Military
Operations Before the
Council of Four

Paris, May 2o.-Marshai Foch has
laid before the Council OF Four his
plan for military operations that are
to be put into effect In case the
German plenipotentiaries decline to
sign the peace treaty.
After the conference yesterday be-
tween Marshal Foch and the Coun-
Gil of Four, President Wilson had a
talS with General Pershing. IL be-
came known later that General Per-
shing's visit to London may DO post
poned in order to await Develop
ments.
A reply by the Allied and associ-
ated governments to the German
note protesting against the economic
terms of the peace treaty as being
calculated to cause the industrial
ruin OF Germany, has been delivered
to tho German peace plenipoten-
tlaries.
Makes Reply to Germany
The reply is under eleven heads.
and answers each German conten-
ton. 1t declares that the Allied and
associated governments in framing
the economic terms had no inten-
ton to destroy Germany's economic
life"
On the contrary, the report points
out that in the reconstruction of
tho worlds affairs, Germany will
have her part In the progressive
development, but also will share with
the rest of tho world In tho econ
omic losses and disadvantages in
evitably resulting from the war.
The reply declares that the Ger
man note fails to take into consid-
GRAFTON tho fact that tho disarma-
ment of Germany and the end OF
militarism will relieve the German
people of an immense burden of
taxation and return to the ranks of
useful production, illions of men
formerly in the army, who have been
entirely Withdrawn from industrial
or agricultural activity.
Must Share Losses
The reply also makes an emphatic
rejoInder to the German complaint
that the loss of the German mcrch-
ant marine will throw out of work
thousands of German merchant sea-
men. The Allies answer is that the
destruction of merchant ships, chief
ly by German submarines. has had
the unfortunate effect of limiting the
opportunities of seamen throughout
the world, the Allied powers being
the greatest sufferers. 1t adds that
there clearly is no reason why Ger
many should be exempted from it's
share of the economic disadvantage
growing out of this destruction of
m merchant ships.
The reply on the economic obiec-
tions is regarded as one of the best
documents in the exchange of notes.
Many persons attribute it to Presi-
dent Wilson.
