, W W - "V 4 CURB ON DEBATE' TO MEET WILSON IS Senate and House Leaders Now Appear Willing to Await the President's Explanation. WSH FAVORED t MONROE DOCTRINE ISSUE Republicans Claim League Action Destroys Doctrine; Democrats See No Danger. Washington. Feb. 15. (U. P.) Com plete readiness to accede to President Wilson's requeet that .congressional de bate on the League pf Nations be with- held until he has talked it over with the foreign affairs committees was evl- ' denceu tonight by house and senate leaders. , They may not be able to forestall dis cussion entirely, but any effort to bring on general debate will be met by ad ministration leaders with the statement that the president has promised to go over the league constitution, article by article, with the full membership of both house and senate foreign affairs com (jnlttees. and that, until he has had that . opportunity, critical debate would mani festly be unfair. - The senate's silence today on the league was based largely upon one point , made by the president In his cablegram to the two committees. This Is the fact that H nations,' representing the bulk of the civilized people of the world, had agreed In formulating the'- league's charter. To Give Mtinti a Chanre The unwisdom of prematurely settling upon senatorial opinions against the (clearly expressed joint wilf of all these people is apparent, senators said. An other reason u a desire to give the American people a chance, over Hun day, to react to the proposal and ex press their opinions. The president's invitation to dinner at the White House will undoubtedly be accepted when the two committees meet in Joint session next week. This meet ing has already been called for Wednes day. It was called to' discuss an invita tion from the Inter-Parliamentary union that a delegation from the house and ' senate be sent to Paris to attend the union's March meeting. House committee members favor send ing the-. delegation to Paris. Senator ' Hitchcock, chairman of the senate com mittee, said tonight he sees no objection 'to it. A similar invitation, made a year ago, was declined when President Wil , son objected. He took the view that. during the war. the legislative body '' should stay here and attend to winning "the war. That objection having been removed, members of the two commit tees explained today they can see no - ."reason why the Invitation should not rnow be accepted. May Name Committee If the joint meeting decides this should be done., a resolution will be Introduced ,;woviding for the appointment of nine senators and 16 house members. Members feel that this trip would prove valuable in creating, an accord with European legislators, in view of the closer relations which America's par ticipation in the league's activities will entail. Kngland. France and Italy com 'pose the union, which discusses legisla 'tion chiefly along international lines. At Wednesday's meeting not only this Invitation and that of President Wilson, but the league constitution itself, will be taken up. Committee members al ready have begun careful study of the constitution, article by article, and will be prepared to ask President Wilson a j 1 1 1 Finley 's Progress 11 I' - - Four times since cominjr to Portland J.

It U the first time since the war began that he. has called in ' committees of congress for counsel. Administration senators said the president's plan to ,lay before con gress all he knows about the league plan will immeasurably aid them in obtain ing its approval. Monroe Doetrlse lint ' From the haze' in which first read ing of the constitution left congress men there emerged today two clearly crystallized views of the league's ef fect on the American Monroe doctrine. The Republican view is tiat the league absolutely abrogates and, destroys the Monroe doctrine. The I Democratic view is that it does not even endan ger it. , The Republican view was stated by a Republican leader who declined to allow his name to be used, but who speaks with the highest party authority. "The practically unanimous Republl -can viewis," said this senator, "that the American people have got to begin conMdering the possibility of a league mandate sending Japan into Mexico as overseer and guardian, or Great Brit ain Into Venezuela. The Monroe doc trine will not exist under tfie league plan, the American people must realize They must begin thinking about this in order to make up their minds whether they are willing It should be so." Senator Hitchcock, for tha Democrats, had no hesitation in being quoted to V effect: "Destruction of the Monroe doctrine does not necessarily follow the opera tion of the league. I do not believe that i any- nation except - Germany takes ex ception to the Monroe doctrine, and it it not now to be a member of the league. "The United States, through President Wilson, lias declared emphatically against assuming responsibility across the sea, hence it naturally would fall to our lot to look after affairs in this hemisphere, just as Europe will look after other states." A few senators today expressed opin- ' 1 ..... . An Kn 1 n mm Kilt oil IL'ro rar. una vii inc ' " ful to state their conclusions were sub ject to revision after further study. No question that has arisen during the war oi since has been met so cautiously on Capitol hill. Senator Hitchcock today agreed wtih Senator Iewis, Democratic whip, that President Wilson probably will ask some action indicating the senate's po- ; sition before he returns to Paris, so that I he may know before his return how the ! league plan stands. I Instead of ratification ,jf the league plan, as in the case of a treaty by a two-thirds vote, a resolution of ap proval may be proposed. A majority vote of the senate would pass this. The president Is expected to outline his wishes in this respect when he meets the two committees. Lieut. Shaw Is Not Dead, as Reported Aberdeen. Wash., Feb. 15.

The high contracting parties un dertake in no way to conceal from each other the conditions of such of their industries as are capable of being adapted to war purposes or the scale of their armaments, and agree that there shall be full and frank interchanges of information as to their military and naval pro grams. Will Preserve Pretest Holdings Article IX : A permanent com mission shall be constituted to ad vise the league on the execution of the provisions of article VIII and on military and naval questions gen erally. Article X : The high contracting parties shall undertake to respect and preserve as against external aggression the territorial integrity and existing political independence of all states members of the league.

Article XI: Any war or threat of war, whether immediately af fecting any of the high contract ing parties or not, is hereby de clared a matter of concern . to the league, and the high contracting parties reserve the right to take any action that may be deemed wise and effective to safeguard the peace of nations. It is hereby also declared and agreed to be the friendly right of each of the high contracting: parties to draw the attention of the body of delegates o- the executive coun cil to any circumstances affecting the international Intercourse which threatens to disturb international peace or the good understanding be tween nations upon which peace depends. Arbitration Is Demanded Article XII : The high contract ing parties agree that should dis putes arise between them which cannot be adjusted by the ordinary processes of diplomacy, they will in no case resort to war without pre viously submitting the questions and matters involved either to arbitration or to inquiry by the executive council and until after three months after the award by the arbitrators or recommendations by the executive council, and that they will not even then resort to war as against a member of the league which complies with the award of the arbitrators or. the rec ommendation of the executive coun cil.

For this purpose the parties agree to com municate to the secretary general as promptly as possible statements of their case, with all the relevant pa pers, and the executive council may forthwith direct the publication thereof. Coonrll to Consider Disputes Where the efforts of the council lead to the settlement of the dispute, a statement shall be published in dicating the nature of the dispute ana the terms of settlement, togeth er with such explanations as may be appropriate. If the dispute has not been settled, a report by the council shall be published, setting forth with all necessary facts and explanations the recommendations which the council think just and proper - for the settlement of the dispute. If the report is unanimously agreed to by the members of the council other than the parties to the dispute, tho high contracting parties agree that they will not go to war with .any party which complies with the recommendations and that, if any . party shall refuse so to comply, the council shall propose measures nec esstry to give effect to the recom mendations. If no such report can be made, it shall be the duty of -he majority and the privilege of the minority to issue statements indicat ing what they believe to be the facts and containing the reason which they consider to be just and proper. : The executive council may in any -case under' this article refer the dis pute to the body of delegates.

It shall be the duty of the execu tive council In such cases to rec ommend what effective military or " naval i force the members of the league; shall severally contribute to the armed forces to be, used to pro tect the covenants of the league. The I high contracting parties agree, ! further, that they will mutu ally support one another in the financial and economio measures which! may be taken under this ar ticle, in order to minimize the loss and inconvenience resulting from the above measures, and that they will mutually support one another In resisting any special measures "aimed at one of their number by the covenant-breaking state and that i they will afford passage through their territory to the forces ; of any of the high contracting par ties who are cooperating to pro tect the covenants of the league. Article XVII : In the event of dis putes f between one state member of the league and another state which is not a memberyof the league, or be tween states not - members of the league, the high-contracting parties agree that the state or states not members, of the league shall be in vited! to accept the obligation of membership in the league for the purposes of such dispute, upon such conditions as the executive council may j deem Just, and upon accept ance I of any " such invitation ; the above provisions shall - be applied with j such modifications as may be deemed necessary by the league.

In i the event of a power so invited refusing to accept the obligations of membership in the league for the purpose of a dispute which, in the case of a state member of the league, would constitute a breach of article XII, the provision of ytlcle XIV shall be applicable as against the state taking such action. If both parties to the dispute, when so invited, refuse to accept the obligations of membership in the league for the purpose of such dls putej, the executive council may take such action and make such recom mendation that will - prevent hostili ties and will result in the settlement of tjie dispute. Traffic In Arms Supervised Article XVIII : The high contract ing parties agree that the league shall be entrusted with general su pervision of the trade in arms and ammunition with the countries In which the control of this traffic is necessary in the common interest. Article XIX: To those colonies and territories which as a consequence of the late war have . ceased to be under the sovereignty i of the states which formerly owned them and which are inhabited by peoples not yet able to stand by themselves un der the strenuous conditions of the modern world, there should be ap- : plied the principle that the well be ing and development of such peo ples form a sacred trust of civillza tloni and that securities for the per manence of this trust should be embodied in the constitution of the league. The .best method of giving practi cable effect to this principle is that the j tutelage of such peoples should be entrusted to advanced nations who, by reason of their resources, by experience and their geographi cal position, can best undertake the responsibility, and .that this tutelage should be accepted by them as man datories on behalf of the league. Recognition Given Development . The character of the mandate should differ according to the state of the development of the people, the I geographical situation of the territory, its economic conditions and other similar circumstances. Certain communities formerly be longing to the Turkish empire have reached a stage of development that their existence as independent na tions can be provisionally recog nized, subject to the rendering of advice toward development and as sistance by a mandatory power un til such time as they are able to stand alone. The wishes of these communities must be a principal condition in the selection of the man datory power. Other peoples, especially those of Central Africa, are at such a stage that the mandatory must be respon sible for the administration of the territry BUbject to conditions which will guarantee freedom of conscience or 1 religion, subject only . to the maintenance of public order and morals, the prohibition of abuses such as ithe slave trade, the arms traffic and the prevention of the establishment of fortifications or military or naval bases and of mlll--tary training of the natives for other than police purposes and the defense of territory, and will also secure equal opportunities for the trade and commerce for otljer members of the league. I States to Gaard Islands There are ( territories, -such as Southwest Africa and certain of the South Pacific islands, which, owing to the sparseness of their pop-Ua-tion, or their small size, or their remoteness from the centers of civil ization, or their geographical con tiguity to the mandatory state, and other circumstances, can be best ad ministered' under the laws of the mandatory state as integral por tions thereof, subject to the safe guards above mentioned in the- in terest of the Indigenous population. Jn "every case of mandate the man datory state shall render to the league an annual report in refer ence to the territory committees to Its charge. The degree of authority, control or administration to be exercised by the mandatory state shall, if not previously agreed upon by the high contracting parties, In each case be explicitly defined by the executive council in a special act or charter. To Review Yearly' Reports The high contracting parties fur ther agree to establish at the seat of the league a mandatory commission councilj to receive and examine the annual." ''reports of' the mandatory - powers, and to assist the league in ensuring the observance of the terms of all ; ; mandates. . -rvjit -l-Xi- - Article XX ; The high contracting parties' will endeavor to secure and . maintain fair and humane conditions of labor for men, women and chil dren, both in their own countries and . in all countries to which their com mercial and industrial relations ex- v tend ; and to that end agree to estabr , lish as part of the organization of . ' the league a' permanent bureau of labor. - ..-..;: ! -,- " ; Commerce Safeguarded j Article XXl: The high contracting : parties agree that provision shall" be made through the instrumentality of the league to secure and maintain freedom of transit ' and equitable treatment for the commerce of all states (members of the league), hav ing in mind, among other things, special arrangements with regard to the necessities' of the regions de vastated during the war of 1914 1919. ; . , Article XX it : The high contracting parties agree to place under the control, of the league all international bureaus already established by gen eral treaties, if the parties to such treaties consent. Fundamentally, they agree that all such interna tional bureaus to be constituted in future shall be placed under control of the league. Seeret Treaties Unlawful Article XVIII : The high contract ing parties agree that every treaty or international engagement entered into hereafter by any state member of the league shall be forthwith reg istered with the 'secretary general, and as soon as possible published by him, . and that such treaties or in ternational . engagements shall be 1 binding until so registered. Article XXIV : It shall be the right of the body of delegates from time to time to advise the reconsidera tion by states-members of the league, of treaties which have become in applicable, and other international conditions of which the continuance may endanger the peace of the world. Nations Bind Themselves Article XXV : The high contracting parties severally agree that the pres ent covenant is accepted as abrogat ' ing all obligations interse which are inconsistent with the terms thereof, and solemnly engage that theyvlll not hereafter enter into any: agree ment inconsistent with the . terms thereof. In case any of the powers signa tory hereto or subsequently admit ted to the league shall, before be ' coming a party to this .covenant, have undertaken any. 'obligations which are inconsistent ' with the terms of this covenant, it shall be the duty of such power to take im mediate steps to procure its release from such obligations. Article XXVI : Amendments to this covenant -will take effect when rati fied by the states whose representa tives compose the executive council and by three-fourths of the states , whose representatives compose the body of the delegates.
