MONROE DOCTRINE
TO Be SAFEGUARDED
Peace Commissioners Now
at Work on League of
Nations Changes.

PARIS, March 17.-Efforts are being
directed to shaping the League Of Ma
ITEMS covenant so as to insure its ac-
ceDtance by the Supreme Council and
win the approval OF those Americans
who are demanding its amendment.
Colonel House conferred with Lord
Robert Cecil, Leon Bourgeois and the
American delegates and reported 10
President Wilson. 1t is conceded that
some Of the suggested amendments
can safely be adopted, for instance,
those safeguarding the Monroe Doc
Urine and fixing conditions which will
permit Of the adherence Of the late
enemy powers.
None Of the five powers has hest
lated to accept distinct expression
Of the right Of ceSsion from the league.
Americans are proceeding on the sup
position that the covenant may be
included in the peace treaty.
Foreign Minister Pichon said today
that he felt it was practically impos-
sible to include the covenant in the
first treaty. The views Of neutral
countries, which has been invited, and
amendments could not be disposed of
he added, before the probable early
signing OF the Preliminaries.
The issue, the minister suggested,
might be met by declaration in the
treaty of the principles underlying the
league, leaving the details in abey-
ance. The war would be ended when
the preliminaries were signed, he
pointed out, but the Germans would
not regain their pre-war status with
liberty of movement until the sign
ing Of the final treaty, pending which
the blockade would be lifted only
partially.
Regarding Posen, M. Pinchon said
that if the Germans persisted in their
rejection of the terms Of the Allied
commissioners, the Entente would
have to intervene. Poland could not
be left in its present dangerous situa-
ton. A French general would be sent
to Poland with the first Polish division
which had fought in France, as soon
as possible.
NJ. Pichon denied the report that the
French government had accorded rec.
ognition to the Russian Bolshevikl,
saying that the Supreme Council would
consider the Russian question this
week.

period Mr.. Wilson, with British help.
framed the covenant of the league of
nations, with British aid excluded.
French amendments designed to give
France security. and Japanese changes
drafted to remove the stigma of race
inferiority. Then Mr. Wilson returned
to the United States. So far the
league Of nations had been the centre
OF European as we'll as American dis
cussion, but at this precise moment
the whole situation changed.
With the Presidents departure the
peace conference turned from the
league Of nations to the material prob
lens, territorial and economic. And
at this point British policy necessarily
changed. For Britain, like France
and Italy, had material interests in
volved. Like France and Italy she
had economic and financial claims.
Moreover, she had secret treaties
alike with France, Japan and Italv.
which bound her to support her allies
claims and even when these claims
conficted with the fourteen points
and insured the impossibility of max
ing peace of Cancellation.
AS consequence, when Mr.. Wilson
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-06-22

Another ground for criticism of the
Y. M. C. A. which Mr.. Fosdick said was
somewhat justified was in the character
Of its personnel. While many of it's
men were we'll qualified for their work
ne said, many others were utterly un-
adapted to this purpose and had no
common ground in mixing with our
virile, red blooded young soldiers" He
found, also, however. the field of choice
was limited, men of proper quaiifca-
lions being in most cases in the army
The work of $500 young women ser
wing under the Y. NJ C. A. with the
troops in France sis beyond praise"
Mr.. Fosdick stated, the girls being far
better adapted TO the task than the
average man. He said also the charge
Of badly adapted personnel could not
be confined to the Y. Nj. C. A. alone.
Viewed broadly. Mr.. Fosdick de-
clarcd, 1.-The Y. M. c. A. deserves the
appreciation of the army and the con-
tlnued support Of the public"
Similarly Mr.. Fosdick found that the
knights of Columbus carried on IL
helpful work on the same general lines,
noting particularly hhat this organ
izstion furnished amusement to many

estrangement between France and the
United States as represented by Mr..
Wilson, and very unfortunate period
of disappointment. Frenchmen would
not and could not believe In the league
of nations, with the memory of old
and recent German invasions and de-
vastations in their minds. Moreover,
they knew, and it gave them furious
rage, that their allies across the chan
mel did not believe in the league OF
nations, and they felt they were being
abandoned by their British friends,
whereas in the main they were the
victims of their own logic.
At a certain moment this situation
was acute, for the French saw the
British with Mr.. Wilson's consent &C.
curing all the German colonies, the
German fleets, Turkish provinces, while
their far more modest demands, such
as the claim upon the Saar coal basin,
were denied by Mr.. Wilson, and their
Syrian aspirations, at least as legiti-
mate as British pretensions in Meso-
potamia, violently opposed by Ameri-
can and British statesmen.
This was the situation in the first
stage of the peace conference. In thi.

strongest single power on earth for
many decades. Therefore, to quarrel
with America would be fatal and to
quarrel over the league of nations
mere faulty.
At this point it is necessary to add
one thing more. If British policy clear
ly pointed in one direction, there is no
less unmistakable evidence that the
desire of many Englishmen, without
regard to national questions, was for
new basis of Anglo American rela-
tons If there was calculation in
British policy, there was not less GER
tainly spontaneous and widespread
anxiety to establish newer and firmer
friendship between the two English
speaking peoples. In sum, am anx-
ious to make clear that the British
statesmen did not merely conspire to
use Mr.. Wilson's idealism; they and
their fellow countrymen came to Paris
or stayed at home equally resolved to
promote the cause of Anglo-American
friendship.
British statesmen, however, saw
clearly that the league of nations idea
could not succeed. They recognized
that no peace of Cancellation was pos
sible, because they knew their Europe

Wilson Faces Great
Crisis, and Chooses

Mr.. Wilson then faced the great
crisis. To go meant the ruin of the
league of nations, the success at home
OF his political enemies, the confusion
of the Allied cause But to stay meant
! to consent to a European peace, to
accept terms out of accord with his
programme of peace of conciliation-
1t meant to lose the commanding role
in the peace conference
The Presidents decision was to
stay. He believed, he was convinced
that if a league of nations were once
established, set in motion, all else
would in the end resolve itself. Mean
time, he would tr,', and he did try, to
obtain such notifications of Allied
claims as were possible He continued
to fight, notably in the case of Fiume.
for at least sembance of his pro-
gramme, of his fourteen points
Nevertheless, in the very nature Of
things, the league of nations idea dis
appeared. The settlement with Ger
many territorially as we'll as politi-
cally, based on justice in the main.
insured permanent German futility
and France demanded and obtained
the Presidents Endorsement of a
guarantee against Germany, which
amounted in fact to new Anglo
French-American alliance
After this, there was no more Eu-
ropean concern for the league of ma
lions. What the British have always
seen as the big possibility Of the
league OF nations in fact, VIVA. the
French had tardily recognized as the
maximum of possibility, was now ar
rived-namely an alliance with the
United States. Moreover. this all ance
was a fact in Paris and dominated the
peace conference.

powers recognized the fact; they TOO
