rjUUAl, ."lUUUOl IV, SENATE REQUEST di MUST BE DENIED Washington, Aug. 12.?President' pi Wilson sent to the foreign relations -?i committee today a copy of the origi- k,: mal American draft of a league of na- p) tions covenant but declined to iur-; C( nish other papers relating to thej re peace negotiations asked for in sen-! b< ate resolutions. : v>t In reply to a committee request: to for "all data" used in preparation of J the treaty, the president wrote that1 d< most of the documents and memor- a, anda were left in Paris and that, e: many were of a confidential nature. pi so that "on grounds of public policy" j \ it would be unwise to make use of! them "outside the conference." He's' sent only the American covenant' draft and a copy of the covenant as! agreed to before his first return fromj Europe. To another resolution asking for a ir copy of the letter written by Gen- e< eral Bliss regarding the Shantung 111 problem Mr. Wilson replied that he t? regarded the letter as confidential I " since it contained certain references v' to other governments. He said the communication in which Secretary A Lansing and Henry White concurred, t "took a very strong ground" against " the proposed settlement of the ques- 0 tion, but could not "properly be de- ,* Q1 scribed as a protest against the final! Shantung decision." j Another development in the treaty j controversy today was the statement before the foreign relations commit-; c' tee by Secretary Lansing that Vis-! count Ishii, Japanese ambassador to. w the United States had "concealed" i the existence of the secret treaty be-j P tween Japan and Great Britain re-| w gar ding Shantung peninsula while S the Lansing-Ishii agreement was be- w ing negotiated. P The American league made public P for the first time revealed that the b: American delegates had proposed a u (covenant conforming in many particulars with that finally adopted but t( Ill A SURE ENOU !

The proposition of extending aid to Admiral Kolchak received the support of President Wilson and his associates at the peace conference in Paris, but the getting of supplies to1 him was found to be more of a mili-J tary than a diplomatic problem, j France, England and Japan were in position politically to offer supplies' but the position of the United States was not so clear on that point.
