I did not say that. I said as it has now been construed it is hardlyI used the word " hardly "-more than that. but what I have done in the resolution is to attemlt to save tile teeth of the covenant of the league of nations so that after exempting immigration. after exempting the tariff. after exempting commerce. after exempting everything on earth we can think of exempting from the jurisdiction of the league. it shall be made plain that a nation may not then exempt itself from all jurisdiction of the league by simply a bare assertion that a question involves some of its internal affairs. If that were permitted. of course. no nation that feels itself in the wrong will ever submit its cause to the league of nations. Why?
