said that the League to Enforce
Peace did not include Article X, and
it did not. The formidable objection
made to Article X is that it would in
volve US in war to defend boundaries
and independence of every other ma
ton. without regard ta the question
whether the maintenance of such a
boundary or of independence was just.
The platform Of the League to Enforce
Peace did require nations members of
the league, by economic and military
force, to prevent war before submis-
sion of justiciable questions to a court
or of n-justiciable questions to a
commission of cancellations; but it did
not seek to enforce either the Judgment
or the recommendation
Mn. Cox's sixth question is as fol-

Sixth. You say that Senator
for the league with reservations,
but you failed to say that your
candidate within the last two
weeks very definitely announced
that had he had it to do over again
he would not vote for the league
even with the Lodge reservations.
My answer is that l have not seen
any such announcement from Senator
Harding. On the contrary, in his
speech of August % he said that undel.
the same circumstances he would do
it again.
Mr.. Cox's seventh question is as fol-
lows:
Seventh. You say that Senator
Harding promises that as President
he will indorse the covenant with
out Article X. To whom has be given
the promise? Certainly not to
Senators Johnson and Borah.

given it to the American people.
Has he given it to you? If so, is

After reviewing his war record in

AT the first sign of opposition the
f1oodgates of denunciation were
opened. Condemnation was wellnigh
universal. But the debates began to
disclose one ugly fact after another.
Among these, that super-world gov

we would be in helpless minority;
that we were expected to maintain an
armed force in Europe; France de-
manded we should bind ourselves to 90

Germany; that American fnanciers
were to loan billions more to Europe,
taking as security their deprecated
bonds, which were to be thereafter sub
stantlally guaranteed by the league

Doctrine had been forfeited and the
policies of George Washington cast
into the waste basket. The claim that
America can always protect herself by
a single negative vote is fraud and a
sham, because America has no vote or

America can be put to trial before the
representatives of seven foreign gov

United States. In all governments the
power to declare war rests somewhere,
and an agreement to make war is an
agreement that that power shall be so
exercised by the officers in whom it
rests. A refusal by Congress to pass
the necessary resolution would simply
be a breach of the treaty.
AN analogous case is the power of
Congress to appropriate money. There
is no other power in our government
to do that, but if the United States
makes a treaty, agreeing to pay a
million dollars to another country
would any one say that the obligation
could be Cancelled by refusal of Con-
gress to appropriate the money? Ger
that the United States would have
broken faith. The real question is
whether we shall enter into a guaran-
ty under which the faith of treaties
will require Congress to pass a resolu-
ton declaring war. That is what the
President proposed. That is what your
telegram makes it clear you propose.
"On the same day that you sent
the telegram, according to the press re-
ports, in meeting a Providence some
one in the audience asked you would
you accept the Lodge reservations to
the League of Nations? o
There was your opportunity. Among
those reservations was one which said !:
The United States assumes no ob!:ga-
ton to preserve the territorial in
tegrity or political independence of
any other country by the employment
CT its military or naval forces, etc,
unless in any particular case the Con-
gress. which under the Constitution
has the sole power to declare war or
10 authorize the employment of the
military or naval forces of the United
States, shall in the exercise of full
liberty of action by act or joint reso-
luton so provide That reservation
would leave Congress free whenever
the time came to act in accordance
with its judgment and conscience, and
the Judgment and conscience of its
constituents regarding the merits of
the controversy at that time.
"Your position, as you now state it
would leave Congress bound by the
solemn pledge of faith Of our country
to pass the resolution for war, no mat
ter what the merits Of the controversy
might be.
"If you did not mean that Congress.
should be bound, you had an oppor
tunity at that meeting in Providence
to~ say, 4 agree(to this reservation ol
to this part of this reservation
Your answer is reported to have
BEEN The Lodge reservations never
were seriously suggested. If they hat
been, Senator Lodge would have de
clared for them in the Republican plat
form adopted at Chicago And thus
you sdestepped the question, and yol
state in your telegram to me the per
fectly futile thing you are willing tt
do upon the subject of Article X
