(Received February 1, 2.30 p.m.)
WASHINGTON, 31st January. ■Senator Lodge, speaking in the Senate, said that the action of the United States in Paris had involved the United States in difficulties. Australia and South Africa apparently proposed that the United States should watch over Hottentots and other folk. Its real duty was to make peace with Germany and withdraw the American troops.
Senator Lodge warmly declared that the German colonies ought to go to Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa.
"We should allow' them to do as they like. It' is not the business of the United States to administer them."
