"Jf the league shall bo put In such shape that it will promote peaco instead of breeding dis order and will" work no injustlco to these United States I will support it," paid Senator Henry Cabot Lodgo In re plying to a question of President A. Lawrenco Lowell, or Harvard, during their debato on tho league o-natlons Ikkdim-.; covenant last night. "I hope from ni heart It will bo amended," ho added. "I hope that uch a leaguo will bo framed some where.' In my belief it -will not bo done in Paris." A demand from Doctor Lowell that Sir. Lodgo say whether ho would vote for tho covenant If It vvero amended according to his wishes led to the Senator's declaration. Addressing an nudienco of 3000 per nona in Symphony Hull, tho distin guished speakers wcro applauded lib erally, frequently and apparently Im partially. Senator Lodgo outlined hit attitude briefly, as ii favor of a league of in flow "but not of tho covenant as pre sented. Referring to the charge that tho criticisms of tho covenant wcro not constructive. Senator Lodgo pointed out a number of ways in which ho would amend the. treaty, laying espe cial Btress on the need of protection of tho Monroe Doctrine. Doctor Lowell maintained tho cor rectness of the covenant in principle, arguing that vvhllo "very defective In its drafting" mid "easily misunder stood," It should bo "accepted and im proved." Ho described it as an experiment In open diplomacy. To meet certain objections rained. Doctor Lowell advocated tho inser- tlon of clauses In the covenant permit ting withdrawals fiom tho league on i reasonable notice, stipulating that no , foreign powers shall acquire any pos-1 sessions on tho American continents j and making It perfectly clear that Im migration and laiiff pioblems aro to bo regarded as purely Internal affairs. Lodge Would Guard Monroe Doctrine Senator Lodgo bald, after referring to tho existing draft as "porous": 'Jin 'Washington, on January (!, 1916, addressing the Pan-American congress, President Wilson said: "'Tho Monroe Doctrine was pro claimed by the l nlted States on her own authority. It alwu hai been maintained, and ulwajs will be main tained upon her own responsibility.' "I thlnlc I am not to blame for wish ing it to be maintained now. Now, 1.1 ing it to be maintained now. "Now. either thero should bo a clause In thero saving 'Where not otherwise stated the d"ollon of th executive coun cil shall be b a majority vote' or else it ought to bo expressed in every ar ticle whero they are called upon to make a recommendation or a proposal or a deCUIon of any Kind, "Thero is tho question of immigra tion, which this treaty reaches under the nonjusticiable questions, I km told. I believe I have followed it through all tho winding)', that a final decision could only bo reached by unanimity, and It is said that the league would not be unani mous. I think that highly prohable, bUt I deny tho jurisdiction. It must not bo within the jur'sdlctton of tho league at all. 'The taitff is involved in tho artlclo for the boscott. Tho coastwlso trado la Involved In Article XXI. I think wo ought to Bettlo our own import dutle?. They say It Is a domestic question. So It Is, bo Is Immigration, but they arc do mestic questions with international rela tions. Doctor Low-ell's Beply Departing from his set address to re ply to hl opponent. Doctor Lowell said: "We both feel that this covenant Is, as It "tanda, detective; butthe difference is that I feel that when those defects havo been removed that covenant, with thoso defects cured, ought to bo ratified and he does not tell us whether ho thinks so or not." In develonlnir tho nolnt that miKr-ru-il arbitration treaties would havo pre vented Germany from precipitating this war, Doctor Lowell remarked that such & system might havo prevented our fighting Spain In 1898, but "was taking Cuba worth this war"? "It Is sometimes asked. If tho author Ity of the organs of the league 1b bo hi r significant, where Is its efficiency in pre venting war? Tho answer is that It lies in the obligations assumed under tha covenant directly by the several mem bers of the league; and this is botli the most effective and least adventurous method of nrftpnf!ncr wnr Thorn nr. . in fact two possible forms of league for covenant of Paris. Other Forms Objectionable "Tho other form of league to prevent War would be one whero the members should agree to comply with the direc tions of some International body, and in that case tho obligation of tho mem bers to act would arise until after a deliberation and vote of that body. "This second form of leaguo has two terlous disadvantages. The sanction of the provision against waging war, that Is, the penalty for violation or the pro vision. Is neither Immediate nor certain, but depends upon the somewhat doubtful process of discussion, where a single negative voice of a powerful nation may virtually prevent action.

If the only functions of this body are to talk, to select the four other states to be represented on the- executive coun cil, and to make unanimous recommen dations after Inquiry into a dispute, tha number of votes therein are not of much consequence. , "Another objection brought forward by. the opponents of the league Is that Asiatic Immigration, the policy of a pro tective tariff, or some other, matter of vital domestlo Interest may form a sub i ct of dispute wfth nnother nation and may be brought before the executtvo council for Inquiry and decided against us. It would seem to be clear that tho rramers of the covenant did not Intend to submit to the Interference of tho council the Internal affairs of the mem bers of tho league, and assumed that the council would in Buch questions fol low the recognized principles of Inter national law. "Next we come to the greatest bug bear of all, the point on which popular alarm Is most readily awakened by vague denunciation without definite ex planation It Is the Monroe Doctrine.
