Lowden Tells Borah He Favors
Peace Pact With Reservations
CHICAaO, Jan. G. "While the
loaguo of nations, even ns modi
fled by tho reservations adopted,
does not tako tho form which I
bollovo it should, nnmelj', Judicial
rather than political, I think it Is
the part of wisdom now to ratify
it with such reservations as adopt
ed by the senato," Caw Krank O,
Ijowden said In a lottor today, re
plying to United States Sonator W.
K. Hornh of Idaho, who had re
quested Governor Iowdon's posi
tion on tho league of nations. Tho
text of Governor IOwden's letter
to .Senator Ilorah follows:
"When the nrmlstlco wns signed
I felt that tho time was opportune
for taking up tho subject of bet
ter International relhUons, whore
tho second Tho Hague conference
had left off. It seemed to mo
that tho world was ready to adopt
the high American Ideals of In
ternational friendship utoro ex
pressed. "A permanent court to adjust
all Justiciable differences, a court
of arbitration to which tho na
tions might, ut their option, sub
mit their vital differences, the ma
chinery for mediation and for
commissions of Inquiry In all
other cases nnd a start toward
modification ot International lnw
would be welcomed. I thought, by
all nations. It was not so much a
political International structure.
"Tho lifuo of nations, as sub
mitted to tho senato, seemed to
mo to bo subject lo grnvo objec
tions. Theso objections In tlio
main, I think, havo been removed
by the reservations adopted by
the senate. Tho Instrument, as so
modified, ns I understand lb does
not bind the United .States to par
ticipate In the 'racial and dynastic
battles of the old world,' nor does
it Involve 'entangling alliances or
partnerships with foreign powers,'
nor does It authorize 'Interference

POllTLAND, Ore, Jan. 5. Her
bert Hoover, United States food ad
ministrator, and many times men
tioned as a potential president!'
candldato, has definitely doclarod his
refusal to bo a candidate for that of
fice, according to a telegram reach
ing this city from him.
Tho telegram was sent to Klkln
Wntkins. president of t'ho Jackson
club here, and reads:
"J.ly engagement and connection
with the IndtiHtrlal conference and
with relief In Kuropo mako It impos
sible for me to go to tho northwest
at present. Ileyond this, please ac
cept tho sincerity of my statement
that I am not a candidate for tho
presidency and n campaign to that
end from any party would be entire
ly wrongly directed"
Houver 'had been Invited to ad
dress tho annual banquot of tho
Jackson club In thus city on January
8. This In tho first specific an
nounromont made by Hoover con
cerning hlo much-talkod-of candi
dacy. by foreign powors In Amorlcan af
fairs.' "I do not bellevo thn time has
como when wo should abandon
tho policy of 'no entangling al
liances.' It may be that America
again will deem It nor duty to par
ticipate In somo forolgn war aa
she participated in tho last, but I
think she can be depended upon,
when that time docs come, to de
cide for hortclf, through constitu
tional means, whero her duty lies,
Just as she did before.
"While the leaguo of nations,
even as modified by tha rcsorvn.
tions adopted, does not tako tho
form which I believed It should,
namely. Judicial rather than po
litical, J think It is tho part ot
wisdom now to ratify It with such
roscrvatlons, Our sovereignty is
safeguarded, the Monroo doctrine
Is socure. tho constitutional powers
of congress nro not Impaired, and
our right of withdrawal ui mado
clear nnd explicit. I. do not see
how permanent harm can como
from It, and. I do see the possi
bility of great good. It, at least,
provides for a common meeting
plnco. at statod Intervata, for tho
nations of tho world which aro
parties to It Tills in itself Is a
decided gain.
"It the treaty bo ratified and
America hocomes a party to tho
lungue of nations, she will have an
opportunity to so Influence its ac
tivities nnd so help to modify Its
form that It may In tlmo realize
the noble aspirations for world
peace of tho great men who par
ticipated In The Haguo confer
ences. "If It should fall to accomplish
theso results or operate to tho dl's-
advantago of America, tho way Is
clear by which we can withdraw.
"I therefore hope that tho 1
treaty may bo ratified promptly
with the reservations, In substance
already adopted by tho senate,"

of tho peace ennferonco to chango

not strictly correct. It was learned

Ambassador Wallace, It Is stated,
has not asked for tho abandonment

when questions arose which Involved
the United States, this formula. In
