March 21, The World today prints the following editorial: '. LODGE VERSUS LODGE 'President Lowell, of Harvard, In the course of tho joint debate with Senator Lpdga In Boston on tho league of na tions, submitted the following questions to the Senator: "As the senior United States Senator from this state, ns the leader of our party In the Senate, wo have the right to ask you, Senator Lodge first, wheth er you will or will not vote for the ooenant of Paris, provided It Is amend ed as you wish; what amendments do you want, and why do you not submit them"? Senator Lodge made no direct answer to any ot these questions In regard to the first, he expressed the pious hope that "we shall have n league In proper form," but "In my belief It wil be done somewhere and not In Paris," the only place In which there Is any possibility of Its being done. In respect to the second and third questions, Senator Lodge, as the author of the Hound Robin, Insisted that "I happen to be a Senator of the United Mates. I cannot speak with the author ity of the Senate. The Senate, under the constitution, has the right to ad vise and consent " Then the Senator proceeded to attack President Wilson for the manner In which the negotiations have been con ducted, and said: "If the President of the United States had done what other Presidents have done, If ho had laid that before the Senate I am only asking something that has been done by almost all our Presidents, who have consulted the Sen ate about entering Into negotiations, about tho character of the negotlatons, about awards about pending negotia tions." Pretending th.it Jackson, that Grant, that Washington, that Lincoln had done this, although he carefully refrained from citing :i single Instance, Senator Lodge continued: "If the President had laid that draft before the Senate, as these other Presi dents have done, if he had said to the Senate, 'I submit this draft to sou for you advice, ' I hope ror jour approal and for such suggestions as jou may have to make.' he would have had the amendment laid before him to present to the Peace Conference In Paris. The battle would hae been more than half won by the mere submission. "He not only did not lay It before us. before the constitutional body which Is entitled to advise him, but he does not call tho Senate together now to adise him." Senator Lodge's grleance, then, Is '-not so much against the league of nations as against the conduct of Presi dent Wilson In refusing to consult the 'Senate In adance as to the provisions of the constitution ad tlio terms o"f the treaty of peace. Whether that I3 a -kalld grievance 01 not we shall Ieae to Senator Lodge him self to decide. A similar question arose In the Senate In January, 1906, In re gard to President Roosevelt's action in relation to tho Algeclnos conference on tho Santo Dominingo affair. This Is what Senator Lodge, speaking on the action of the Senator chamber, said on January 2. 1906, In regard to the erspectlve powers of the President and the Senato in the matter of treaties (Congressional Record, page 1470) : "N'o- one, I think, can doubt tho ab solute power of the President to Initiate and carry on all negotiations ; and after a treaty has been returned to him with the ratification of tho Senate, to with hold It from ratification If he sees fit so to do. There Is no doubt that the Senate con by resolution advise the President to entor upon a negotiation, or advise the President to refrain from a negotiation ; but those resolutions have no binding force whatsoever, and the action of the Senato becomes operative and actually effective only when a treaty Is actually submitted to It We have no possible right to break suddenly into the middle of 'a negotiation and demand from the President what Instructions he has given to his representatives." Furthermore, In the course of that speech Senator Lodge gave his un qualified approval to tho remarks of Senator Spooner the day before, In the course of which that great constitutional lawyer had thus defined the President's powers. "From the foundation of the govern ment It has been conceded In practice and In theory that the constitution vests the porter of negotiation aa the various plniMS and they are multlfarous of the conduct of our foreign relations ex clusively" In the President. He does not exercise that constitutional power, nor can he be mado to do It, under the tutelage or guardianship of thev Senato or of the House, or of the Senate and House combined. "When, lie shall have negotiated and sent his proposed treaty to the Senate the jurisdiction of that body attaches and Its powers' begin. It may advise and consent or It may refuse. And in tho exercise of this function It Is as In dependent of the executive as he is in dependent of it In th matter of nego tiation," , And Henry Cabot Lodge, In un qualifiedly Indorsing Senator Spooner's speech, said: "I quite realize that after the manner In which he has dealt with those questions, anything that I may ay Is In great danger of being an antl- climax." Judging Senator Lodge from his speech In Boston Wednesday night and from his speech In the Senate January 24, 1906, what are we to assume? That there Is one consltutlon for Republican Presidents and quite a different con stitution for Democratic Presidents? That Republican Presidents haVe com plete 'constitutional power to originate and negotiate treaties Independently of the Senate, but that Democratic Presi dents must first consult the Senate and ask permission to negotiate? We'are reluctant to think that Senator Lodge Is playing partisan polities' with this grave Isue of the league of nations that he Is moro concerned about dis crediting President Wilson than he Is about helping to guarantee the peace of the world and prevent a repetition of this terrible war. But 'what conclusion are we to form from Ills speech of Jan uary ",'190, and )ls speech of March 19. 1819? How can they be reconciled? What Is 'the mjatery of this extraordi nary case of Lodge versus Lodge? i 1 1 1 Germans Free Ten Americans Washington, March 21.
