Watson Seeks Treaty Reserve on Shantung Seizure
Senator James E. Watson of Indiana urges a six year limit to Japan’s control of Shantung in the peace treaty and condemns the cession as a crime. He argues self determination is ignored and China’s ally status is betrayed as Germany’s precedent is extended by Japan. He warns the league of nations is compromised by special alliances and U.S. isolation policy is traded for French support.
