Wilson Confident Success of
Plans for Nations9 League
After Conference with Congressmen-Explains
Clause
WASHINGTON, Fob. 27. Confi-
I donee. In the success of plans for a 1
League of Nations was reiterated by
the president dtjring the conferences
with senators this afternoon.
"Its success Is Inevitable." the
president was quoted as saying. "The
United States cannot afford to fail
the world in this emergency."
Details of the president confer
ence with congressmen last night
continued to develop today. One of
the developments was the apparent
certainty that the president does not
Ish any formal expression at this
time on the tentative draft.
Some republicans who were at the
conference stated today that the pre
sident's discussion emphasized the
need for amendment of the tentative
draft to establish precisely many im
portant principles beyond controversy
or question.
President Wilson, It was under
stood today, did not venture any pre-'
dictions as to when peace would
eventually be established, but inform
ed the committee members that he
was straining every nerve toward the
conclusion of peace, adding that
every day of delay Increased the dan
ger ot complications, especially in
Germany.
Willing to Amend
Some ot the committeemen gained
the Impression that the president
was willing to accept a specific
amendment ot the proposed constitu.
tlon to guarantee maintenance of the
! Monroe doctrine. They said, however,
that he Indicated any such amend
ment might raise issues ot a related
nature which would prove so difficult
of adjustment that the possibility of
Its adoption was remote.
President Wilson does not approve
the sending of a joint committee of
members of the house and senate
foreign relations committee to an in
ter-allied parliamentary conference
in Paris during the negotiations.

ment the rights of the state to Mal

The bill was indefinitely postponed
upon motion o Senator Gill, chair
man of the committee on game. .
Senator Pierce's oleomargarine bill
passed the house yesterday in a badly
mangled form, nfter a grand pow
wow and wrangle thnt lasted half the
morning and most of the afternoon.
Moth factions ngTeed upon n compro
mise, which was satisfactory to
neither.
Senator LaFollettc s hills to abol
ish the state parole offiee were com
mitted to the crave vard vestcrdnv
after having lnin dormnnt since the

The house last night passed the

Hitchcock of the sennto eommittoo
said today, that the sending of such
a committee to Paris might cause
confusion.
To Irotect France r
While discussing the armament
provisions of the leaguo's constitu
tion the president was asked the rea
son for the clause referring to con
sideration being given a ' country's
geographic situation In' determining
its armed forces. Ho is said to have
answered that the clause referred
chiefly to France, whose people fear
ed Germany might 'become strong
sometime in the future and again
threaten Invasion. It was asked it
the provision might not also help
Great Britain in retaining its great
navy and the president answered this
might he the result because of the
wide distribution of the British col
onies. . . - " - ' .'
Senator Brandegee asked how til- :
ture American congresses were to be
bound by acceptance of the league
and the president answered that the
legislative body could not be bound.
In this connection. Senator Knox said
that treaties could not change the
constitution of the United States but
that a treaty, if acceped, would be '
doubtless observed in the future as a
matter of good 'faith.
. ' Jnpans Position
The possibility of Japan's getting
a base in Mexico was referred to
during the discussion. It being asked
If Mexico might sell or lease a part
of Its possessions, such as Magdalena
Bay to Japan.
Senator McCumber was the first to
answer, asserting that the league
wonld prevent such a transaction.
Senator Lodge replied that no court
would prevent such a sate or lease,
but that the United States would seek
to do so as a mater of self-preservation.
. The president, it was said, did
not reply, but noddlngly approved
the position of Senator Lodge.
