Distinction Between Reservations and Textual Amendments in Senate Speech
Senator Colt explains the difference between textual amendments and reservations to treaties. A textual amendment creates a new treaty needing all signatories approval, while a reservation alters only the reserving party's rights and requires no new ratification by others. He applies this to the Shantung and Johnson amendments and warns of potential wider controversy if a textual change were adopted. The speech cites Oppenheim and historical examples like Algeciras and Hague Conventions to illustrate acquiescence by other powers.
