At both the 1920 and 1921 sessions of the League of Nations Assembly, he was chairman of the Assembly Committee on Disarmament, and last March was appointed a member of the League Council's Commission on Araments, headed by Rene Vivian! of France.

Viviani, Speaking for France, Says New Treaty Means the Peace of the World, and Parley’s Success Is Sure. WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 (Ass0- clated Press).—The draft of the pro» posed treaty between the United States, Great Britain, France and Japen, which 1s to supplant the Anglo-Japanese Alillance and pave the way for the acceptance of the American proposals for naval redue- | tion, was formally laid before the Arms Conference to-day by Senator Lodge. It Is a ten-year agreement In whieh the four nations bind themselves to respect thelr existing rights in insular possessions and dominions in the Pax cific, and in the case of disputes which cannot be settled by diplomacy agree to a joint conference among themselves, Any one of the parties may with- draw on twelve months’ notice after tne expiration of the ten yeara, The treaty requires confirmation by the Senate, Senator Lodge presented the treaty to the Conference in the following statement: “{ should be Insensible, indeed, If I did not feel deeply gratified by the opportunity which has come to me to lay before the Conference a draft of a treaty, the terms of which have been agreed upon by four of the great powers of the earth In regard to the Islands of the Pacific which they control, éither as possessions or dominions, I will begin by reading to the Conference the treaty, which is beth brief and simple, and whieh 1 aim sure is full of meaning and im- portance to the world's peace.” (Here Senator Lodge read the treaty in full.) RESERVATIONS ON THE PART OF THE U. 8. “The signing of this treaty,” said Senator Lodge, continuing, “is on the part of the United States subject to the making of a convention with Japan, concerning the status of the Island of Yap and what are termed Ocean north of the Equator, the ne- gotiations in regard to which are most concluded, and also to the vations with respect to what. are termed the mandated islands in the Pacific Ocean, south of the Equator, t should also be observed that the controversies to which the pro- treaty refers do not embrace questions which according to princi- ples of International law lie exolu- sively within the domestic jurisdics tion of the respective powers, “The c spoke correctly when the terms of the treaty as simple, To put it in a few words, the treaty pro- vides that the four signatory powers will agree as between themselves to respect their insular possessions and dominions In the region of tha Paci- fie and that If any controversy should arise as to such rights all the high contracting parties shall be invited to. a joint conference looking to the ade justment of such controversy, “They agree to take similar in the case of aggréssion by any power upon these insular po or domini The ag remain in for ten. pose er ee the mandated islands in the Pacifie ” nference will perceive that I * I referred to, i ey
