SENATE VOTE SOON
No Delay in Matter of Abrogat-
ing Russian Treaty.
is EXPECTED TO CONCUR
Strong Sentiment in Favor Of Prompt
Passage of the House
Resolution.

|. The Senate is not going to be slow In
acting on the House resolution for the
abrogation OF the treaty of 1892 with Rus
STA, the terms of which the Jews of this
country claim are being repeatedly vio-
lated by discrimination against Jews de-
string to visit Russia. The Senate lead
ers are practically agreed that the Senate
will join with the House in voting to con-
cur on the resolution of abrogation, and
everything points to action before the re-
cess for the holidays next Thursday.
Senator Culberson of Texas and Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts, who have been
active in pushing the abrogation resolu-
ton before the upper House, cited an arti-
Gle in the treaty to show that. If the Sen
ate postpones action until after he holi-
day recess. 1t will postpone the date of
the effectiveness of the abrogation until
January 1, 1914.
Terminate It January /, 1913.
If the Senate acts before the recess and
Russia is notified before January 1 next
the treaty will cease to- be effective after
January ], 1918
The article in question indicates. in Sen
ator Lodges opinion, that the termina-
ton of the treaty comes one year from
the next succeeding January /. If notice
was not given Russia until January
next. the treaty would not be term mated
until one wear from January /, 1915
After calling attention to this situation
Senator Culberson asked unanimous con-
sent to have the abrogaton resolution
considered in the Senate Monday without
being referred to the Senate committee
on foreign relations Senator Cullom. the
chairman of that committee, insisted tnat
the resolution should be referred.
