covenant provides that the league
shall act thru an assembly, 10 which
each state shall have one vote and not
more than three delegates, and a
council comprising for the present one

to be selected from time to time by
the assembly. Members Of each class
represented on the council may be in
creased by unanimous consent OF the
council and majority of the assem-
bly,.
The text provides that nothing in
the covenant shall be deemed "to
affect the validity of international
engagements such as treaties Of arbi =
tration or regional understa ndings
like the Monroe doctrine for securing
the maintenance Of peace" This
was the amendment for which Presi--
dent Wilson made successful fight

cation to the peace conference sought
vainly to have race equality provis-
ion inserted in the covenant.

given only to nations willing to
accept them, leave it to member
states to decide what armed force, if
anY, it will contribute to the force
required by the league to enforce its
mandates, and make it clear that
member states individually will pass
upon proposed limitations upon their
arinamapfS
With notifications, the new draft
includes all the provisions for the
submission to the council OF interna,
tional disputes, for Inviting nonmem,
her nations to accept the obligations
OF members for the purpose of adjust
Ing disputes and for breakog econo-
mic relations or the use of armed
force in dealing with state which
has broken the covenant.

es, unanimous agreement is required
