This step was accomplished by a cominittee, including Louis Loucheur of France, Sir Céeil Hurst of Great Britain and Signor Scialcla of Italy, which, with Mr. Adachi of Japan| present and approving, worked out | a definite plan for arranging the pro- | tocol to remove the Japanese objec- | tions and thereby to prevent an ad- verse vote by the Japanese delega- tion when the protocol is submitted to the assembly of the league of na- tions, Terms of Compromise The compromise plan was sub- wmitted this afternoon to the sub- commission on arbitration. Tt pro- vides a system whereby all conflicts between nations, even thoze arising over.matters of internal jurfsdiction, may be examined by the council of the league when any member intro- duces the suhject for discussion. This is in effect the original Jap- anese amendment to the protocol, which the Japanese delegates aban- doned in favor of a much stronger one whén they found the first ohe met with disfavo~. ~ Their gecond proposition, which was considered as gravely endangering the future of the protocol and of the proposed in- ternational conference on disarma- ment provided by it, called for the suppression of the protocol clause whieh proclaimed as an aggressor any state refusing to ablde by a world court ruling that a particular dispute concerned the sovereign rights of the state complained against and hence that no conflict was justificable, Japs Drop Amendment Havihg gained their orlginal point, the Japanese have now dropped their substitute amendment, the danger of which lay in its fmplied questioning of the doctrina of the soversign rights of a state over its domestic affairs. By the preliminary aceord work- od ont today, the Tokio government has obtained an arrangement where- by the door to conciliation and me- adiation will not be shut by a decls- fon of the world court but will be ieft open o that a discontented na- tion may still alr its grievance he- fore the league of nations.
