Eng fish and continental snewspapermen, to whom he made long statement prefer ring charges, alleged officiel documents secured by Sim Fal aaA Among these papers was an official permit alleg- sd to have been signed by General Sir Nevil MacReady, military commander oi Ireland. It was made out to man named Hardy, who has a life long ca reer of forgery and imprisonment, and who is alleged to have been released prematurely on ticket of leave signed by Ian MacPherson. as chief secretary for Ireland. permitting him to move | about freely in Ireland unhathpered by police surveillance, in the role, as MT Griffith asserted, of government spy.

This is the method of an autocrat and not nf a constitutional president
 MT Wilson has also adopted the auto cratic method in another direction lie has carried on his relations with foreign nations and his negotiations largely through personal agents, through men who do not hold an office in which they had been confirmed by the senate which would make them officials of the United States, but persons selecter by the presl- dent and responsible to him alone. lie sent men like Mir. John Lind and MT. | William Bayard Hale to represent nm | in Mexico. He had ambassadors abroad f whom he had himself selected, some or them very able and competent men, yet | if you will think over the events or the past few years you will notice that our ambassadors played but a comparatively small part in all the intricate questions
 which arose between the United states and foreign governments. Colonel House, | A personal agent of the president, was | sent abroad to hold conversations with heads of foreign nations and report to NIT. Wilson alone and there were others Tn less important places who were used ln the same way. This abuse of the unde- fined power to employ personal agent is a direct method of the autocrat and not
 of the constitutional magistrate.

 To sum un in few words, Article 10
 imposes an immediate obligation on the ! United States to use her armies and
 navies whenever the political independ-

 Der of the league is subjecter to external
 aggression that is, is invaded by another
 power, no matter how justifiable the act
 of the invading power may be. It l ct dofa and
 with our military forces, without any op-
 portunity for judgment on our own part
 the political independence and the boun- daries, many of them still unsettled of
 every member of the league. The menace to the United States involved in Article 10 cannot be overrated. We met it with | reservation, and all that reservation did } was to relieve the United States from any
 obligation under Article 10 and left III absolutely free to refuse to fulfil the obii 1 gation imposed by the first sentence of thu t article if the congress saw fit to do so The reservation made us the judges O [ whether we should carry out the guaran . tees of Article 10 or not and in case O our refusal this reservation prevented |, 1 its being a breach of the treaty or : l, lhreaeh of the obligation In other wofdi 1t reserved the rights of America So tha , American SC idiers or American sailor could not be sent to any war to sacrific ; their lives except by the untranmeled , unfettred comrhAnd of their own countr, expressed through the constitutional req f resentatives of tl,e people, This reserva

He would not permit an 7 reservation to Article 10. which he calle , the heart of the covenant" In m f judgment no American who is not willin , to have American soldiers and sailors sen f to any country in the world to fight an z die in quarrels which do not concer them could possibly accept treaty whic ! contained Article 10 with its fatal and ir
 tolerable obligation.
