LODGE DEBATES A.L, LOWELL ON LEAGUEJ.1ERITS Both Speakers Agree That Present Covenant Needs Revision to Clarify Plan, (Br Aadid PreMl BOSTON, Mas, March 20. The merits of the proposed covenant of the league of nations were debated Wednesday night by Senator Henry Cabot Lodge and A. Lawrence Lowell, president of Harvard university, before an audience that followed the

speakers with Intense Interest and fre- J

quently expressed approval. The dehaters approached the general topic from different angles. Senator Lodge attacked the covenant "as agreed upon by the commission of the peace conference" as a "porous instrument,"

on the interpretation of which tbe signers themselves would be at odds within twelve months. Dr. Lowell .admitted that the covenant needed clarification, but argued that in substance, as a plan for the prevention of war. It was sound. Senator Lodge In opening his argument said that he was not against a league of nations, but was anxious to have the free nations of the world unite to secure peace and bring about "a general disarmament" He also denied tbe charge of Inconsistency because of speeches in 1915 and 1916, favoring "in general" a league of nations. At this time and later, in fact up to the very last, he explained, he was in constant consultation with Col. Roosevelt. "Two weeks before his death," he said, "I was with Theodore Roosevelt for some hours, seeing him for two mornings in succession. The draft now before the country was not then before us, but we discussed fully the league of nations in all its bearings.

we were in entire agreement. The position that I have taken and now take had his full approval. "The question before us," Senator Lodge said, "the only question of a practical nature, is whether the league that has been drafted by the commission of the peace conference and laid before it win tend to secure the peace of the world as it stands and whether it is just and fair to tbe United States of America." In answer to the charge that there had been no constructive criticism of

the league of nations. Senator Lodge

exclaimed: "My first constructive criticism is that this covenant ought to be redrafted." This is essential, he added, because the sanctity of treaties ranks above all else. Lowell Defends Draft. He also declared for a larger reservation of the Monroe Doctrine. After presenting an anaylsls of the league draft showing Just what powers are proposed for the association, and pointing out that the league would not take away the sovereignty of any nation. Dr. Lowell said: "If we assume that the covenant means what It says, and not something wholly different no organ of the league has any authority to give commands to this country that need give us a moment's anxiety. The only substantial powers that any such body is to possess, beyond making recommendations which we may follow or not as we think right, are derived from a unanimous decision In an international dispute, and from the right to forbid an increase In armaments or to direct the duties of a mandate in case we first agree to the reduction of armaments, or to the assumption of the mandate. "It Is sometimes asked," if the authority of the organs of the league is so insignificant, where is its efficiency i' preventing war? The answer is that it lies in the obligation? assumed under the covenant directly by the several members of the league; and this is both the most effective and least adventurous method of ' preventing war."
