President Wilson letter to Hitchcock on peace treaty reservations
President Wilson outlines his stance on proposed reservations to the peace treaty. He accepts the substance of the reservations but criticizes the form as risking friction with allied nations. He endorses the reservations as they stand and suggests procedural specifics on withdrawal and congressional authority.
Reservations Hitchcock Proposed For Treaty Of Versailles
The five reservations to the Versailles treaty are laid out in Senator Hitchcock's statement. They include each nation’s right to withdraw from the league on two years’ notice and the notion that internal matters like immigration or tariffs are domestic and not subject to league decisions. The Monroe Doctrine remains unimpaired by the covenant and U S sovereignty governs naval and military guidance. Disputes involving self governing colonies are treated as multi party, with voting rules excluding certain votes in inquiries.
