HARMONY IN PACTS
AMENDMENT PROJECTED TO LEAGUE COVENANT QUESTION IN COMMONS Reed. Noon. RUGBY, Wednesday. Replying to Sir Austen Chamberlain, Mr. Arthur Henderson said in the Commons that the Government thought it desirable that the Covenant of the League of Nations should be amended so as to bring it into harmony with the Pact of Paris. The Government was of opinion that i generally speaking the proposals of | the League Committee on this matter i were satisfactory, but they reserved ■ the right of making suggestions for | modifying the details. It was a matter for debate whether ] the obligations of the Government | would be extended by amendments. | There might be a small technical ! extension, but he thought the amendments as a whole had the effect of making more remote the possibility i of conflict.
