WILSON EXPLAINS Z.
DISPUTED POINTS
CONTINUED from First Page.1


vote us in the League of Nations and
thereby control zheL Leagues ac-
ton?
Answer-The consideration which
led to assigning six votes to self
governing portions of the British
empire was that they have in effect,
in all but foreign policies, become
autonomous self-governing states,
their policy in all but foreign af-
fairs being independent of the con-
troll of the British government and
in many respects dissimilar from it.
But it is not true that the British
empire can outvote us in the League
of Nations and therefore control the
action of the League, because in
every matter except the admission
of new members in the League, no
action can be taken without the
concurrence of a unanimous vote of
the representatives of the States,
which are members of the Council,
SO that in all matters of action, the
affirmative vote of the United States
is necessary and equivalent to the
united vote of the representative of
the several parts of the British en-
pire. The united votes of the sew
eral parts of the British empire can
not offset or overcome the vote of
the United States.
Can't Order Troops Abroad
2-Is it true that under the League
of Nations foreign countries can or
der the sending of American troops
to foreign countries?
Answer-It is not. The right of
Congress to determine such matters
is in no wise impaired.
3-What effect will the League Of
Nations have in either forwarding
or hindering the final restoration of
Shantung to China? What effect
will the League of Nations have in
preventing further spoliation of
China and the abrogation Of all such
special privileges now enjoyed in
China by foreign countriSs?
Answer-The League of Nations
will have very powerful effect in
forwarding the final restoration of
Shantung to China. and no other
instrumentality or action can be
substituted which could bring that
League will under Article 10. be
Constantly s'directed toward, safe
guarding the territorial integrity
and political independence of China.
It will. therefore, absolutely pre-
vent the further spoliation of China,
promote the restoration in China of
the several privileges now long en-
joyed by foreign countries, and as
sure China of the completion of the
process by which Shantung will
presently be returned to her in full
sovereignty. In the past there has
been no tribunal which could be
resorted to for any of these pur-
poses.
q. S. Not Obligated
4-Is there anything in the League
Of Nations Covenant of the Peace
Treaty which directly or indirectly
in any manner imposed on the
United States any obligations, moral

People Starving in Near

]. Calvitt Clarke. director of the
Committee for Relief in the Near East
with OFFICES at Front and Walnut
streets in this city. recommends that
every man and woman in Harrisburg
see the picture to be shown at tho
Victoria Theater next week entitled
Auction of Souls"
Mr.. Clarke says the startling events
recorded in the picture are in no way
overdrawn. and that even to-day con-
ditions are SO bad and suffering 30
intense that it Is almost impossible to
grasp this greatest tragedy of modern
times.
Food Ia SO scarce that little children
are to be seen tearing off the fesh
from the bodies of dead animals N

or otherwise, of the slightest char
acter to support England in any way
In case of revolt in Ireland?
Answer-There is not. The only
guarantee contained in the Covenant
is against external aggression and
those who framed the Covenant were
scrupulously careful in no way to
interfere with what they regarded
as the sacred rights OF self-determi-
nation.
5-What effect, If any, will the
League of Nations Covenant have in
either hindering or furthering the
cause of Irish freedom?
Answer-It was not possible for
the Peace Conference to act with
regard to the self-determination of
any territories except those which
had belonged to the defeated en-
pires. but in the Covenant of the
League of Nations 1t has set up for
the first time. in Article II, a forum
before which all claims of self-de-
termination which are likely to dis
turb the peace of the world or the
good understanding between nations
upon which the peace of the world
depends, can be brought.

Will Have No Private

Wilson declared that in his trip
across the continent he had become
convinced that the Treaty issue
would be decided rightly by the
people and mot by any private pur-
pose of their own"
He repeated his declaration that
the League of Nations was not the
work of the Versailles Conference,
but grew out of years of thought by
men who did not devote any portion
of their consideration to politics.
Some of the most constructive minds
of both parties, he asserted, had
been devoted to the project for a
generation.
There was much disorder in the
hall during the address and the
President spoke with apparent diff
