Paris Doubts Tremys
Validity if Amended
Belief Held in Some Circles,
Ho,perer, Supreme Council
Could Approve Alterations

PARIS, July Is (By The Associated
Press .-Thcre is much speculation in
conference circles as to what the exact
status Of the German treaty would be
were the United States Senate to ratify
it with reservations or amendments.
This discussion has been intensified by
the publication in Paris Of Mr.. Taft's
statement indicating that he regards
a modification Of the treaty as likely
and suggesting changes advisable.
Many Of the delegates take the posi-
ton that it would be possible for the
supreme council to approve the modi-
tications made By the Senate. Others
believe that approval of tho changes
would be necessary on the part Of all
the signatory powers.
President Wilson, before leaving
Paris, is known to have believed that
any change by the Senate would make
imperativ ca renewal of the negotia-
tons with all the signatory powers,
and result in great delay before
America could be admitted to the
league Of nations. President Wilson's
view that changes must be passed up
on by individual countries is apparent
ly not shared by many of the delegates,
who are Of tho opinion that if Senate
changes be agreed upon while the con-
ference is in session they could be
acted upon speedily by the supreme
council, or possibly by plenary SEES
sion, thus avoiding the necessity of
taking up negotiations through the
| various capitals.

ter Conference Wifh Lansing

WASHINGTON, July 26.-Colombia

the treaty between that country and
the United States by which suggestions

Relations Committee said to-day after

assign to the committee two of the
experts of the American peace delega-
ton who assisted in preparing these
sections

to take it up Tuesday and have it
ratified before the end Of next week,
with the sections suggesting an apology
to Columbia eliminated.

Bourne Fight ON League
Declared Private War

The League to Enforce Peace, says the
Republican Publicity Association, in
which ex-senator Jonathan X. Bourne,
of Oregon, is a moving spirit, and which
is conducting a propaganda against the
league Of nations, has no authority to
speak for the Republican party. The
League to Enforce Peace, whose head
quarters is at 1870 West Forty-second
Street, is the organization dominated
by ex-President Taft. In a statement
issued last night the league says:
"The Republican Publicity Association
is purely private Organization, con-
trolled by a few officeholders and ex-
officeholders who include the implacable
enemies Of the league Of nations.
"The chairman, and one of the chief
moing spirits, is Jonathan Bourne, jr,
ex-senator from Oregon. Mr.. Bourne
does not even represent the majority
sentiment of his own state, where both
Senators, one Republican and the other
Democrat, favor ratification of the
league covenant"

League VIII Win
Declares Senate viii Rot
ify 1t Unchanged, but
May Qualify Approval

BOSTON, July 26.-The Senate will
ratify the league Of nations covenant
without amendment but may qualify
its Endorsement, Senator Hitchcock, OF
Nebras ka, ranking Democratic member
OF the Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations, asserted to-day. He was ad-
dressing, informally, group OF TRENDS
and newspaper men at the Union CLUB,
having stopped here on the way to his
summer home at Swampscott-
The Senator said he represented
forty-six Democratic and five or six
Republican Senators, who stood against
any amendment He felt certain that
every amendment proposed would be
beaten by from six TO twelve votes he
only doubt about the Senate's action,
IN his opinion, was the question Of the
phraseology Of the resolution Of rati-
;ication, which might contain qualifying
terms.
"If any qualifications CO intcrpreta-
t;ons are made" he said, they must
be made under the approval OF Pres
dent Wilson, who is in communication
with the other nations involve0.' The
Senator thought that any qualification
regarding the Monroe Doctrine would
fail Of majority, and he added that
there would be difficulty also in OBJ
tanning a majority On any particular
"Therc are fifteen to twenty-five Re-
publican Senator'S in sympathy with the
league of nations idea,' Senator Hitch
cock estimated.
Regarding Shantung, the Senator said
the league of nations pact merely took
notice Of a treaty already subscribed
to by China. Japan, he felt, having by
force of arms turned German interests
out of China, was entitled to confrma-
ton in the territory which Germany
had held By treaty, and transfer OF
which. he said, China had approved
He intimated that negotiations now
pending might result in definite dec
laration by Japan of the date on which
she would withdraw from Shantung.
Instead Of opposing the league, Sena
tor Hitchcock said he felt Ir;shmer
everywhere would support it as offer
ing the best hope for future self-rult
OF Ireland. The provisions OF Article
4, he said, were such that member ma
tons Of the league would not interfc r,
TO suppress revolution; that they wouls
move only against external ageres
son., and that, while the league woul<
not assist people in eaecting revolu
hon, the right Of revolution was pro

made an attack upon the National
party, declaring that its return to
power would involve the ruin of Ger
many.
Herr Erzberger went into the polit
zeal history of Germany in the war
period, declaring that for four Years
the nation had not had political gov
eminent but military dictatorship,
and that her military masters would
permit no one to speak whom they de-
sired to reprcss. There were several
occasions, he declared, when it would
have been possible to have made peace.
The first, he said, was in 1916, through
President Wilson, but Ambassador
Won Bernstorff, returning from Wash
ington shortly afterward was not
heard in high quarters, and the desire
of President Wilson to bring about
peace was brought to nought by the
submarine warfare
Austria Showed White Feather
In 1917 again, the Finance Minister
declared, peace was possible. Aus
tria, he said, recognized then that she
was done for, and at the end of the
summer notified Germany that Aus

Mericans In Union
Against Carranza
US. asked to Keep Hands
Of, Merely Lifting the
Embargo on Munitions

NeD YORK; Tribune
Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, July 90 Repre-
sentatives Of the anti-Carranza fac
lions in Mexico have proposed a new
solution Of the Mexican problem to
Senator'S Of the Foreign Relations
Committee. Under this plan the United
States would adopt hands off poicv
by withdrawing recognition of Car
rama, automatically recognizing a
state of belligerency and thus lifting
the embargo on arms and ammunition.
IT that is done the anti-Carranza
armies and bands, their representa-
ANA from power.
Senators who wanted to know if the
civil war that would follow would not
be just as bad as present conditions,
were told there is already an agree
ment between repre- sentatives OF Villa.
the Aapatlstas, Pelaez and Felix Diaz
that all will unite against Carranza,
and, with him eliminated, they have
agreed on method to restore order
and provide a permanent federal gov
eminent.
Pedro de Villar, accredited repre-
sentative in this country OF Felix
Dlaz, contends that when President
Wilson barred Mexico from the league
of nations he by that act withdrew
any force which adhered to his deci-
sion, long time before to recognize
Carranza."
Manuel Cara Aldape. who was
first Minister Of Public instruction and
later of Foreign Relations under HUI
erta, assured Senator Hitchcock and
Senator Fall that all the anti Carranza
plan.
A lawyer, who accompanied the Mex
leans, carried letters from Pelaez and
the Zapatista leaders, while Diaz Lom-
bardo, Villas representative in this
country, it was declared also gave his
approval to the plan.
The Mexicans will appear before the
House Rules Committee Monday in
connection with the Gould resolution.
They are expected to lay their plan for
mally before the government at that
time.
