Foreign Relations Policy Scored bv Frank Yanderlip Former Banker Would Place Treaty-Making Power With Council Elected by People. Washington, May 12.—Denouncing 1 as archaic and incompetent, the ma i chinery by which the United State* > handles its foreign relations, Frank A. Vanderlip of New York, former president of the National City bank, in an address here today advocated a constitutional change which would take the treaty-making power out of the hands of the president, the sec retary of state and the senate, and place it In a "council of foreign rela tions," to be elected by the people. The council suggested by Mr. Van derllp would oonsits of 25 members, elected from the country at large, and it would be one of his provisions that at least one-half of the council *<houid spend its time abroad, so a* to get the proper experience and come to under stand what foreign relations really mean. Mr. Vanderlip would have the members of the council serve for a term of at least 10 years, so as to give continuity to the American foreign policy, lack of which, h- said, is one great fault of the political sys tem which at this time deals with foreign affairs. People Not Represented. The existing system of handling for eign relations, de said, fails utterly to give expression to popular opin ion. No president, he asserted, was ever elected because of his knowledge ol foreign affairs, and the same rule applied to the senate. Mr. Vanderlip addressed the gen eral convention of the New Jeruaalem (the Sweder.bergian <*hurch in Amer ica). Hailing the world court as advo cated by President Harding, as a move In the right direction, Mr. Van derlip said that "although it can be counted hardiy as a step forward, it has encountered the most widespread opposition. We hear again the old cry of 'national sovereignty.' Nothing must b^ done to interfere with 'na tioai sovereignty.' Wa must have no internatioai justice. internatioai morality, If it interferes with our 'na tional sovereignty.' which must have its way, 'right or wrong ’ Chaos Due to Hatred. "The chaos in Europe today is not a chaos directly resulting from the devastation of the war itself," he said "It is .more the street result of the peace and the passions that the war and the peace engendered, the most intense hatred that ever ruled the peoples of the world — the greatest blindnesses, the greatest prejudices. Harmful acts—and therefore immoral acts—have grown out of these pas sions and hatreds and prejudices. "Historically, any nation sen find a reason for committing acts of in justice toward another nation. Un questionably an injustice was done to Germany by the allies in imposing upon her a reparations debt which she could not possibly pay. But this in justice was excused by the terrible brutalities and the primary causes of the war which. I believe, rightfully are laid at Germany's door. Vet, pay ing Injustice with injustice brings .* chaos which is a threat to civiliza tion. "The trouble with the world today is a spiritual thing—a lack of brother' hood. We have army and navy acade mies—schools for instruction in de struction—but we have no schools of good will to teach understandings of other peoples.” a Denver to Elect Mayor Tuesday Bittereyt Campaign in Years Practically Closed—Eight Candidates in Field.
