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(

collapse of the Kolchak movement in

Washington today. The Kolchak j
I forces have fallen back almost 200 j.

threatened with evacuation.
Failure of the allies and associated:19
governments to get adequate supplies =

had forced him to fall back steadilyj|
belore tne greatly superior coisne-j
viki forces composed of vetei5?is'
whose officers include many Germans'
who fled to Russia when the armistice
was signed^
Officials here are known to regard
Kolchak's efforts at an end unless
most radical measures are adopted by
outside governments and it was sug-j ?
jested that the president might call, "
the attention of congress to the im-!
minence of Bolshevik control of all
Siberia.
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. Somejfl

for the announced specific purpose!
of guarding of supplies at Vladivos-!
