The report of the Club's Section on International Relations on the Covenant of the League of Nations was discussed at the Club Meeting of April 17, 1919, and published in the Transactions, Vol. XIV No. 4, May, 1919. Accompanying the report of the discussion the number included the original text of the Covenant of the League as published by the Peace Conference February 14, 1919, and the revised draft issued April 28, 1919.

The synopsis of the complete Peace Treaty having been published by the United States Committee on Public Information by authority of the Peace Conference May 8, 1919, a study of its terms was taken up by the Section on International Relations. The full text of the treaty as submitted to Germany was published by the United States Senate on June 9, 1919, and considered by members of the Section with the changes of detail made public by the Peace Conference after receipt of the German reply. Believing that a question of such grave interest to the nation should be brought before the citizens everywhere for discussion, the Board of Governors of the Club set aside the Club Mecting of June 19, 1919, for report by the Section on International Relations and the following programme was arranged:

Analysis of the main points of the Treaty-Prof. Edward Krehbiel, Chairman of the Section.

Statement for the Treaty-Chester H. Rowell.

Statement against the Treaty-John H. Miller.

The remaining time was given to discussion under the five-minute rule, and the following members and guests spoke:

Edward Berwick, Grover O'Connor, Justice Olney, Joseph M. Cumming, W. W. Beatty.

At the close of the discussion a motion was made and duly carried, that a post-card vote of the members of the Club be taken on

the acceptance or rejection of the Treaty and of the League of Nations. A card was therefore prepared by the Executive Committee and mailed July 1st to all members entitled to vote. The polls were closed July 10th, and the cards counted with the following result:

The total number of ballots cast was 821 out of 2000 sent out, which is by far the largest post-card vote ever received by the Club.
