Perhaps this was because neither Borah nor Senator Johnson, leaders of the irreconcilable group, spent much'time arguing what kind of a jeague they would favor, but con- tented themselves with condemning the present league. The Republican platform in Chicago, accepted by Borah and Johnson, favors “an inter- national agreement” to accomplish the same general objects which the Democrats have claimed the purpose of the Wilson covenant. But, more specifically thea the Republican’ plat- form, the Harding policy is reflected if the following text of the famous round robin eent originally by the Republicans tn the Genate as a warn- ing to President Wilson in the midst of the peace negotiations: “Whereas a committees of the Peace Conference has proposed & constitution for a League of Na- tions and the proposal ls now be- fore the Peace Conference for its conaideration, now therefore, “Be it resolved by the Senate of the United States in the discharge Of its conatitutional duty of advice in regard to treaties that it is the sense of the Senate that while it is their desire that the nations of the world should unite to promote peace and general disarmament, the constitution of the League of Nations in the form now proposed to the Peace Confcrenco should not be accepted by the United States and, ‘Bo it resolved further that it is the sense of the Senato that the Negotiations on the of the United States should be directed to the utmost expedition of the urgent business of _ negotiating peace terms satisfactory to the United States and the nations as- sociated in the war against the German Government and tho pro- posal for a League of Natians to insure the permanent pcace of the world should then be Ushon up for careful and setious consideration.” | It is the lest paragraph favoring “a League of Nations to insure perma- pont peace” and the preceding para. graph expressing a desire “that the mations of the world should unite to promote peace and genera) disarma. ment," which affords President-Elec Harding his premise for a new for- ign pglicy.
