tion OF the league Of nations and its

an amendment was offered to the ef-
feet that nothing In the Endorsement
of the>league of nations covenant can
be construed as denying the freedom
of Ireland"
FuEiseth charged that someone in
Paris after the American delegates had
left inserted the word merely" into

thus reversing its meaning.
IF the United States, becomes a
member of the league Of nations" he
declared, we will have lost everything
We ever struggled for"
No American ideals were left in the
labor covenant" Mr.. Furuseth de-
clared. after the conference got thru
with it." Me said he did not wish to
be considered as criticising Presiden.
Wilson, adding:
President Wilson no doubt felt he
was compelled to accept what he did
accept. The concentrated wills of all
European countries We're breaking on
his breast. There was the prospect Of
letting the blood gates Of Europe open
again."
