The Senator from Nebraska. as I understood him. stated a moment ago that the President. in this conference. stated that the league of nations would have nothing to do with the question of Japanese immigration. I wish to ask the Senator. if I understood him correctly. how the President could make that statement in view of article 12 of the constitution of the league of nations. which provides that: The high contracting parties agree that should disputes arise between them which can not be adjusted by the ordinary processes of diplomacy. they will In no case resort to war Without previously submitting the question and matters involved either to arbitration or to inquiry by the executive council and until three months after the award by the arbitrators or a recommendation 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 recommendation of the executive council.
