or immutable, he said. and the eventu-
ality must be considered Of the ne xt
Assembly being called upon to CON
slder amendments of far greater inn
portance than those now proposed.
The covenant, Mr. Balfour pointed
out. was framed with remarkable
rapidity, and doubtless amendments
would be necessary but the committee
found the moment inopportunc for
them. Because the committee rejected
the amendments proposed by the Sean
dlnavlan countries, it was not to be
considered that il disagreed with them.
"The motive is this" he said: "If
YOU amend the covenant YOU amend
the Treaty of Versailles, which gave
seal to the peace Of the world.'

Motta's suggestion pointed out that as
regarded the question Of mandates and
the admission of new members. the
covenant was so closely allied to the
treaty proner that to amend the one

SENATORS TELL
OF.ARMY GRAFT
Heated Controversy Arises
Over Contracts for
Cantonments.

Army reorganization came up for
discussion in the Senate yesterday,
but soon was lost in a heated con-
troversy on the question of whether
much graft had prevailed in the let
ting of contracts for construction OF
army cantonments.
Senator Lenroot, of Wisconsin, de-
clared that by the cost plus system
of making army contracts many
contractors had by one deal become
multi-millionaires, and the govern
ment had been cheated of billions
OF dollars. A similar view was taken
by Senators Reed, Of Missouri, and
Wadsworth, of New York. The ad-
ministration of army affairs was de-
Tended by Senators Nelson, of Min
nesota; Sterling, OF South Dakota,
and Swanson, of Virginia.
Passage Of the army reorganiza-
tion bill is expected today, with an
amendment providing for a system
of voluntary military training for
citizen soldiers. The bill now pro-
