WIOuSS anu mocttnS just cthlfu6 CTo8-
ted by the league between nations.
China, after eighty years of oppres.
sive treaties and despoiled rights. By
which all the great powers have prof
tied directly or Indirectly, has for the
first time, in this covenant and treaty,
the means and method to secure Jus
tice and the removal OF the oppressive
economic interference of stronger ma
lions whose citizens are within her
gates, protected by long succession
of international agreements. More
over, it should be remembered that
the clause regarding Shantung wss
made upon the statement by Japan
that she will return the territory to
China. and. therefore, upon that con-
dition. compliance with which promise
the league can require.
The peace OF the present and the
righteousness Of the future can be best
secured by the ratification of the cove
nant and treaty without amendment.
Let the senate take no action that
will give any party to the treaty. and
especially Germany. ground for main
tanning that the ratification of the
United States is not complete and
of conference and negotiations have
been made in 1t.
