be no serious objection. But against
the manner in which they are asser-
ted | do most earnestly protest.
They are couched in defiant, dis
courteous and overbearing manneal
and seem intended to express a jim
goistic spirit that ought to be elimi-
mated from American statesman
ship
Securing the committee reserva-
tons to article ten of the League Of
Nations covenant, Senator McCum-
Der said it really is an amendment
pure and simple" and designed to
take the United States entirely out
Of the league.
Special opposition was expressed
by Senator McCumber to the pro-
posed amendment Of the Shantung
provision. By this amendment, he
said, Japan would be clicked out"
of the league by the United States
and Shantung possibly lost to China.
Calling attention to what he term
ed the failure of the committees
majority to explain the pupose of
the league, Senator McCumber said:
mot one word is said, not sin
gle allusion made concerning either
the great purpose of the League of
Nations or the methods of which
these purposes are to be accomplish
ed.
Irony for Argument.
''Irony and sarcasm have been
substituted for argument. 1t is re-
GREETED that the animoSity which cen
tiers almost wholly against the lea
que should have been engendered
against a subject SO important to
the worlds walfare. 1t is regret
table that the consideration for a
matter so foreign to craftsmanship
should be influenced by hostility to-
wards or suserviency to the presi-
dent"
Analysing the committee amend
ments, Senator McCumber said that
the amendment to give the United
States equal votes in the league with
England and the British colonies
was unnecessary"
The plan of giving each member
nation one vote without regard to
size or Importance was the only
plan, the senator argued, adding that
to all intents and purposes, the Brit
ish colonies are independent.
Senator McCumber said his only
objections to the Lodge reservation
on withdrawal, from the league was
of form. AS to the Lodge reserva-
ton to article ten, Senator McCum-
Der said he had many objections.
"First, it is an amendment pure
and simple he said, "of the most
important article in the league. Its
purpose is to take the United States
as a power for the peace of the
world out of the deague entirely.
Second, it places this county ir
a false and wrong position, and at
titude of encouraging powerful
countries to inflict or impose any
wrong upon weaker nations, by oul
declraed policy Of non-intervention.
With his report Senator McCum-
Der submitted the six reservations
he champions as substitutes for the
committee reservations. These re-
Gently were made public.
