Look at article 26 of the league covenant providing that amendments to the- covenant shall take effect when ratified. There is no provision as to who 6all propose amendments and no provision as to when they are to be acted upon. but there is the provision that before an amendment shall take effect it has got to be approved by the unanimous vote of all the powers having representation in the council and by a majority of all the powers represented in the assembly. The minute we propose an amendmefbt Japanand I say it without feeling toward her. for I have nothing against the Japanese people any more than I have against the Chifiese pebple--Japan will say. of course. "Yes. we will vote for your amendment if you will admit our immigration to your country." Either the thing Is unamendable. or we have got to surrender our domestic questions to foreign control. Any way you look at this thing. Mr: President. it is unwise for this country to. entangle itself in it.
