He made his Bnproval contingent also upon amendments assuring periodic le vlslon of International law and a gen eral redrafting of the coxenant In an at mosphere remoed by seeral jeais from the Issues attendant upon the set tlement of a world war. To dispel , doubt as to trie rluht of withdrawal from the league, he faiored specific reservation of this prh liege .to any sig natory, coincident with or after the pro- ' Posed redrafting conference. r If these changes could be made, the t lormcr secretary of State asserted. It would be "thejclenr dutS-" of the United States to enter Into the league agree ment. In keening with what he termed the, apparent general desire of the Amer ican public hat the country "do Its full sharo toward the establishment of an effective International organization to presene the peace of the world." Mr. Hoot reviewed the league project and proposed his amendments, six In number. In a letter to TVIll II Hays, chairman of tho Republican national committee, which Hays gave out for pub lication. The dlsousslon was In response to a request by the party leader.

The success of those pro visions Is Utah If they are not effective the whole effort to secure future peace goes for nothing. The plan of this league is contained in Articles VIII. and IX. They provide that there shall be a re duction of national armaments to tho lowest point consistent with national aarety, that the executive council shall rormulate plans for a general agreement JB to 'he amount of these reductions, and that when an agreemeant has been mado by the powers the parties will not Von ceal from each other, but will glc full and frank Information regarding their industries capable of being adapted to warlike purpose, the scale of their armaments and their mllltat.y and naval progran. Article XIX Fully Approred 'The provision of Article XIX (of which I fully approve) relating to mandatories Jo.ald or take charge of administration In new states nnd old colonics, necesarlly leaves both the selection of the manda troles and the character of their powers and dutlei Unsettled. All these uncer tainties aro not matteis for criticism, but of necessity arising from the situa tion. Still more Important Is the fact that no one knows when or upon what terms the Central and Eastern Powers are to be admitted to the league. The whole agreement Is at present neces sarily tentative. It cannot really be a league of peace ip operation for a num. ber of ears to come. Root's Six Amendments to World League Pact The six amendments Ellhu Hoot wishes made to the world leagtio treaty follow: FM8T AMKNDMKNT Strike out Article XIII and Inseit the following: "The high contracting powers agree to refer to the existing permanent court of arbitration at The Hague, or to the court of arbitral Justice proposed at the second Hague conference, when estab lished, or to some other arbllial tribunal, all disputes between them (Including those affecting honor and ltal interests) which are of a Justiciable character nnd which the powers concerned hae failed to settle by diplomatic methods, the powers so leferrlng to arbitration agree to accept and glse effect to the award of the tribunal. "Disputes of a Justiciable characterJ nre defined as disputes as to the In terpretation of a treaty, as to any quPB tlon of International law, as to the ex istence of any fact which.

"AiiM qiTOBtion which may arise as to whather a dispute is of a Justiciable character Is to be referred for decision to the court of arbitral Justice when con stituted, or, until It Is constituted, to the existing permanent court of arbi tration at The Hague."
