LEAGUE OF NATIONS
INTERNATIONAL NAVAL FORCE. AMERICA'S PROPOSAL. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association NEW YORK, November 30. The New York Times’ Washington correspondent says: America’s Peace Conference proposals for a League of Nations contemplate an international naval force to police the seas, and such fleet may be used to blockade ports of countries which refuse to obey the League’s decrees. The American Government will advocate an international tribunal to adjust disputes and enforce decisions by the international police fleet. It is intended to advocate that German naval vessels be handed over to the League of Nations, whose force will be augented by warships furnished by other nations within the League. Some European statesmen are in opposition to admitting Germany to the League of Nations until she serves a period of penance. REPUBLICANS DISPLEASED. WASHINGTON, November 30. President Wilson’s failure to include Republicans in the Peace Conference personnel has been made the subject of a Republican Senate movement to despatch a senator independently to Prance to report the proceedings for the Senate.
