While sentiment in the German cabinet, according to d Weimar dis patch is almost unanimous against signing the treaty, official Germany has not definitely committed itself on the amended pea'co conditions.
 The German leaders held an extend- ed conference at Weimar Tuesday to discuss the terms on which hang the future fate of Germany. It is expected the amended conditions will be laid before the German natiOnal assembly today by the cabinet, It is declared the only thing that might persuade the German government to agree to the treaty is the possibility of political and economic chaos in Germany aft erWard.
 Opinion in Paris as to the eventual attitude of the Germans is divided. It is believed, however, that the Ger mans knowing the certain results of a refusal to sign, will in the end agree to the terms. Those familiar with the changes in the treaty says the Ger man leaders can, if they wish make it appear they had gained concessions through negotiations.
 In the meantime Marshall Foch,

M'CUMbER PRAISES
 LEAGUE OF NATIONS
(COntinued from First Page)

there is no other law to appeal to, may most properly unite to protect the land of each and everyone against the avariCiously inclined. It has been asserted and reasserted in all the false attacks on this instrument that the United States would be compelled by Great Britain to preserve her domain against her own internal revolutions or rebcllions. Nothing could be more false. It is only against external ag- grCssion that the league assures it's protection.
 Agree to Reduce Armamcnts.
 "Thc members of the league agree to the reduction of national arma- mcnts. We wave aloft the banners of sovereignty and independence as a scarecrow to frighten those who do not stop to consider that every com pact or treaty between nations that has ever been adopted is just as much a surrender Of our sovereignty and our national independence as though the same treaty were made en bloc with all the nations. We have preaCh- cd the reduction of armaments for years. Now. present to me, if you can, T better plan than provided in this treaty, or else acknowledge frank ly that we never intended to conform our acts to our declarations"
 Refers to Voting Powers.
 Referring to charges that the United States would be a disadvan- tage in the league because it has only one vote. the speaker said the import ant decisions would he made in the council where the only votes would be one each rr in" five great powers with unanimous action required to af- T ici0 +o <l eratiOn of a question to the assembly, Answering objections that Great Brit ain would have too many votes in the assembly, he said
 "What would be the danger to us of having Canada, Australia and New Zealand, blood of our blood and bone of our bone. made members of the as- &emh1y? You give black Haiti vote, you give black Liberia a vote, but you deny the great, independent common wealth of Canada the right to raise her voice.
 Wants Germany Admitted
 "But you say that tho quest ion of whether the matter complained of is a dom estic one must he decided by the council Naturally some one must decide that question. But re- member that the verdict must receive the affirmative vote of every state in the world, outside the parties to the dispute, and that the whole world must wickcdly. contrary to and in defiance of the provision of the compact conspire against the United States.
