The senator declared himself unab) to agree with the objections that the| league would iper-state o subvert the American constitution. He| however, that the Monroe Dog- trine must be clearly safeguarded and domestic questions left for national action “The league in its essence is simply association of free nations,” he “The principle of international the means by which peace can be made secure has never been tried before. All other means of preventing war have failed. Not to try this experiment would leave the world in the same condition of international anarchy as it was hefore the war. “If we believe that it would be dis= honorable to withdraw from Europe at this time to desert France, Eng- land and Italy in this critical hour when the whole world is in a turmeil, then the United States should certain- ly be in the league during this world settlement and until psace and order restored “l believe the great mass of Amer- ican people are convinced that some- thing must be done to prevent future I am in favor of the principles in the L.eague of Nations. This does not mean that I have reached a decision that the league should be ratified in the precise form it is now presented. “There has been much controversy over the question whether the league should not be separated from the peace treaty. I have always believed the league to be inseparabl from t! peace treaty and the treaty cannot bl enforced except through the league. “The provisions of the league with respect to arbitration or investigation and report have been criticized as not strong enough, but they clearly will tend to prevent war. As to the gener- al objection that the league creates a super state and hence is destructive of our independence and sovereignts I am unable to see the force of the arguments in support of this proposi- tion “Nor am I impressed with the con- stitutional objections. The treaty making power under the constitution is of the broadest character and in- cludes everything that is properly cov- ered by the term treaty and is not in conflict with some express provision of the constitution. “I belleve the popular sentiment is universal, and I certainly share it that the Monroe Doctrine should be clearly safeguarded. 1 also believe that domestic questions, like immigra- which in some of their aspects may be international should be prop- erly safeguarded. The storm center of these reservations seems to be Ar- ticle X. As to the retention of this article much may be said on both sides. “Upon the question of reservations I reserve my judgment for a full dis- cussion and consideration."” s WHOQ IS Women as well as men are ate today that the at the have see create a said an said co-operation a wars. embodied tion made miserable by kidney TO wands recommend Dr. Kil- mer's Swamp-Root the At druggists in large and medium size bottles You may receive a sample size it.
