1L88N DECLINES
TO TUIINISH SOME
OF PEACE PM
r . . :r
fells Committee' Cqnliden-
tial Papers Would Involve
Other Nations. /
WASHINGTON, August 11 —
President Wilson sent out the foreign
relations committee today a copy .of
the original American draft of a
league of nations covenant but de
clined to furnish other papers relat
ing to the peace negotiations asked'
for in senate resolutions.
In reply to a committee request for
“all data” used in preparation of the
treaty, the President wrote that most
of the documents and memoranda
were left in Paris and that many were
of a confidential nature so that “on
grounds of public policy” it would
be unwise to make use of them “out
side the conference.” He sent only
the American covenant draft and a
copy of the covenant as agreed to be
fore his first return from Europe.
To another resolution asking for a
copy of the letter written by Gefteral
Bliss regarding the Shantung prob
lem, Mr. Wilson replied that he re
garded the letter as confidential siftce
it contained certain references to
other governments.. He said the com
munication, in which Secretary Lan
sing and Henry White concurred,
“took a very strong ground” against
the proposed settlement of the ques
tion but could not “properly be de
scribed as a protest against the final
Shantung decision.”
The American league plan, made
public for the first time, revealed
that the American delegates had pro
posed a covenant conforming in many
particulars with that finally adopted
but differing from it in others.
* MISS* SOPHIE PARSONS
. CARROLL LA BORDE
Otr June 7th, Miss Sophie Parsons
Carroll, La Borde departed this life,
which for a term of many years she
had spent in the service of others.
She was a daughter of Dr. Maximil-
Uah, La Borde, who was for thirty
years a professor in South Carolina
College, and her girlhood was spent
in Columbia. She was a woman of
culture and unusual intellectual at
tainments, and while these qualities
made a strong impression upon those
iwith whom she came in contact, it
was her Christian character that made
the^pesrimpresstDnr^arlyin'Ttfe;
prompted By the spirit of service, she
became one of the pioneers in her na
tive State as a professional nurse.
After graduating at Bellevue Training
SchooHFor Nurses in New York City,
she took a post-graduate course at
St. John’s Training School for
Nurses in London. While there she
worked in King’s College Hospital
and Charring Cross Hospital, and on
her return to America worked in
Christ Church Hospital, Jersey City,
and in Bellecue, and was head nurse
in St. Luke’s Hospital, New York.
For several years she worked with
the' Sisters of the Good Shepherd
Episcopal, New York, in their Day
Nursery, the first in this country.
For eight years she was a matron
of the Church Home Orphanage,
while that institution was located at
Charleston.
She was an associate of The Sisters
of St. Mary Episcopal, Sewanee,
Sewanee, Tenn., and asisted them in
their missionary work in the moun
tains of Tennessee for some years.
At the time of her departure she
was living near Clinton, S. C., with
her sister, Mrs. Robert C. Davis, and
though hampered by the infirmities
qf age, continued to do relief work
among the poor, had been active in
Red Cross and war work, and her
patriotism was unsurpassed.
Whef^yer she lived she was a mis
sionary possessing a large measure
of the cnce ol unselfishness. In
SV
American League Plan.
Like the, final draft the American
plan conteraplatpd a league council
ana assembly dealing with “any war
or threat of war,” an arbitration pro
cedure under superyision of the coun£
cil, advice by the league as to re
duction qf armament, an economic
boycott against covenant breakers,
>ycott
publicity of treaties, and a mandatory
system. The much debated article
ten, under which the members would
guarantee one another’s integrity
against external aggression, had its
coifiiterpart, almost word for word,
in the American plan.
At variance with the covenant as
finally included in the treaty, how
ever j the Presklent’s covenant would
have omitted refernce to the Monroe
Doctrine and the right of withdrawal,
would have empowered the council
to “inquire into the feasability of
abolishing compulsory military serv-
dee,’’ and would have contained a
provision relative to the freedom qf
the seas. The council and assembly
would have been differently consti
tuted and instead of unanimous vote
being required in the. council, any
nations represented would have been
empowered to veto any decision.
When the American plan reached
fhe Capitol Secretary Lansing, con
cluding his testimony before the for
eign relations committee on the
treaty, was laying before the commit
tee and copy of the resolution em
bodying league principles presented
~ by him at the peace conference. The
resolution, which never was acted
on formally, followed in general the
American covenant draft.
At the end of his testimony, vyhich
concerned chiefly the Shantung
agreement and related subjects, the
secretary was asked to send before
the committee tomorrow David Hun
ter Miller, as state department of
ficial who acted as adviser of the
league of nations commission at
Versailles. It is expected Mr; Miller
will be asked in detail about the
American draft and its relation to the
final covenant.
President Wilson also notified the
senate today in response to requests
sent by it to the white house that he
had no knowledge of any attempt by
the Japanese delegates to intimidate
the Chinese representatives at Ver

had entered into a covenant violating
American traditions and impairing
the constitutional powers of congress.
Tomorrow Chairman Lodge, of the
foreign relations .Committee, will
speak on the league of nations. 4
; A sub-committee was named by tlA
senate judiciary committee today to
consider whether there is any consti
tutional barrier to ratification of the
special defensive treaty with France.
The action was in response to a reso-
sailles and that he had no information'lution by Senator Walsh, Democrat,
Montana, calling on the committee
for an opinion. Senator Nelson, Re
publican, Minnesota, heads the sub
committee.
The German army must shrink by
March, 1920, from 2,000,000 men to
100,000 men; the liavy will retain

of 41 battleships and 49 cruisers, and
there must be no military or naval
air forces. .
German forts for 50 kilometers
eq^t of the Rhine must be dismantled,
and the fortifications in Heligoland
demolished.
Germany is allowed to produce but
little war material and cannot trade
in it. She must open her pet Kiel
Canal to craft of all nations, and per
mit the Allies to occupy certain dis
tricts for fifteen years or until she
makes full reparation.
She becomes responsible foe all
damages to the Allied Governments
and their citizens, promises reim
bursement of civilian damages, with
an initial payment of $5,000,000,000
and consents to the trial of the Kais
er and others changeable with pre
