Former Presidents Object
is to Defeat in Senate Any
Radical Amendment to
Covenant.
PROPOSITION NOW
BEING CONSIDERED
Administration Lea d ers
However Unwilling to
Concede ANY Reservations
Will Be Necessary.

Washington, July pa plan
for Interpretations" in the SEN
ate acceptance of the League of
Nations has been suggested by
former President Taft in the
hope that if united on middle
ground enough democratic and
republican senators could be Sc
cured to defeat any radical
amendment of the covenant to
the end Of obtaining it's ratifica-
zion. Mr.. Taft's suggestion.
which created a sensation In the
senate, was embodied in letter.
TO Republican National Chair
man Hays. The suggestion COW
cred the right of withdrawal
from the league, limiting repre-
sentation of dominions and colo
nies, asserting the prerogative
Of congress to declare war un
der article "a, confirming ma
tional control over domestic is
ues, oe..ning the Monroe doc
trjne, and reserving the right to
terminate obligations under ar
ticle ten at the end of ten years.
Mr.. Tafts suggestion has been re-
wnrttt .sNsaN ,1ff firr-
the group of republicans who favor
the league idea and who already are
at work the definite progress of
Interpretive reservations which they
declare they have reason TO believe
will be accepted by the administration.
Administration leaders. however, are
unwilling to concede that any reserva-
tions will be necessary and still insist
they will have votes when the time
comes to ratify the covenant as il is.
So confident are league republicans OF
the success of their plan that some be-
lieve the president will probably accept
az 70 smooth way to the acceptance
of the league.
Washington. July 23.-President Will
son today denied published reports he
had told senators he was responsible
for the Shantung settlement in the
treaty with Germany. An official
statement from the White House said
tne preAluent e&efteu all inLtuence ne
was at liberty TO exercise in the cir
cumstances' 10 obtain n modification
Of the Shantung provision.
Senators calling at the White House
today We're the last on the original list
of fifteen selected by the president, but
invitations for the other republican
senators TO call at the White House
will go forward from day to day, it
being the presidents desire to confer
with all OF them before he starts on
his tour OF the country.
President Wilson has been devoting
considerable time recently to getting
together documents used by the Ameri-
can peace delegation mt Paris which
have been asked for by the senate in
its consideration of the treaty. Sec
retary Lansing. who was TO arrive in
Washington late today from Paris, is
expected to assist, in this work.
While the foreign relations commit
tee has not yet reached a decision as
TO calling members of the American
delegation for examination on features
of the treaty, ii is probable that Mr..
Lansing VIII be summoned after tho
committee completes the reading OF
text which was continued today.
