Up Its First’ Fall and Accurate’ Por- trayal of What Took Place in Room. 351 During the - 30 Hours When 19 Men Framed International Constitution. 4 Parie—During the time when the League of Nations covenant was being written’ meetings of 19 men. were held imt:Col.’ House's room: on the thirdfloor of ‘the Hotel Crillon, the. workshop of the American Commission to Negotiate, Pe There the. commission on the League of Nations drew up its cove- nant. There is nothing particularly im- pressive about. Room 351. «It is the kind of reception room that may he found, in many a French hotel. It is large, high and decorated in the rather ‘borate style. But whatever its ap- pearance.may be while it is being used for, everyday pyrposes, it assumed a wholly different look during the meet- ings of the’ commission. “Inthe center of the room, a big Found. table covered with red cloth, Aronnd the taple.19 chairs for the 19 members of the.commission. Slightly péhind yet scattered thru this circle of’ seats,/a number of other chairs for French and English. translators. Im. the corners, three or four desks, afid ardund the walls occasional. chairs fot any secretaries whom the members migtit care: to-bring ‘with them. All ih ail; the tablés might have been latd for & meeting of the cabinet or an American board of directors. ° ¢In: this room: the commission met 10 times, during the 11 days. They came together:in’ the morning, afternoon or evening at-hours which would not con- flict with the: program “of the Peace Conference itself whose work envisag- ed: their own, or-with that of the Su- preme ‘War Council, then engaged upon Presking questions relating to the're- neéwal of the armistice. It, might be figured out that the meéctings averaged three hours in Yength;:‘but it is hardly appropriate to-speak’idf ayerages in this connec- tion..: No titne was set by the commis- salon {for the termination ofthe day’s 4$51:of the Hotel Crillon, the Workshop ‘ of the: American Commission :to i Negotiate Peace~. — ere-Commisgion:on League ‘of Nations Drew Covenant and Passed It‘on'to the World all new papers upon -which ‘disenssions might depend. Every day, as the commission, made progress through the \ draft, there was laid at each plgee 2} revised copy indicating just what, hai been acpomplished on the day before. If there were amendments to be pro- posed by any member, he saw to it) that. they were typewritten and dis- tributed so that each of his colleagues might examine their merits in advance. | The meetings were marked -hy ex- treme simplicity. Diplomatic dress had disappeared with the diplomacy of the past.. Each man wore what was. convenient—dinner coat, morning coat or business suit—and the business suit prevailed. There was none of that sense of the overwhelming signif- icance of the task whichis sometimes the death of decision, " They went about the matter in a commonplace President Wilson presided over ev- ery meeting except ,the last. The first meeting was very brief. The commission came together: the president spoke a few words and laid before them a draft plan which they agreed to use as the basis of discus- sion. So day after day the draft ana held up to the light and criticized and amplified. At.the end of the eighth meeting, the first reading was com- pleted. Though the project emerged -un- heanged in principle, the draft had been altered: in many, details and there were {before the commission various proposed’ amendments and changes in work was finished, and the printing press was busy all through the night so that the amended draft might be on the table the next morning.
