TREATY VOTE TO Be CLOSE
Outcome in Doubt Over Crucial Pro-
vision Covering Treaty Making Pow
srs-Lodse Resolution May hullify
Clause.

Washington, March with final
action on the arbitration treaties with
Great Britain and France definitely
fixed for late this afternoon, both the
advocates and opponents of the treat
les in their unamended form figured a
very close vote on the crucial pro-
vision contained in clause OF article
8. Opponents claim this clause not
only delegates the senate's treaty
making power to the proposed joint
high commission Of inquiry but binds
the senate to accept the commission's
determinations.
The foreign relations committee
which at first favored striking out this
clause, has shifted it's view to that OF
preference to have the treaties left in
tact and the objectional clause virtual
ly nullified by the Lodge ratification
resolution interpreting it SO as to pre-
serve the full constitutional treaty
powers Of the senate.

the first to reach IahsSa IN Tibet, ana
much confidence was felt in him by the
geogra phical society of Berlin. The
japanese explorer followed the Shack
Teton route into Ross sea, but returned
to Sydney. Australia. in 1911 to repair
damage done in Terror bay. His second
start was not made until November
last, so that he is rather behind in the
race.
DR.. Mawson, the Australian. took his
route from the harbor Of Hobart, Tas-

Amundsen First to Return.
These five men and their parties
were out Of sight of the world for
many months until the first rumor
came yesterday with the confirmatory
report that Amundsen had returned
and has brought word that his leading
opponent had reached the coveted goal.
Less Important Than Psary's Feat.
From geographical and scientific
standpoint the discovery of the south
pole, while momentous event, has not
the same features Of importance and
danger as relate to the north pole. The
quest for the north pole has been thru
great fields Of open water and floating
ice. whereas, the south pole is situated
on land. Scores Of nAvigatorss have per-
ished in the quest for the north pole
but relatively few in trying to reach
the south pole. The problem has not
been one of reaching the pole over
floating ice but Of passing rapidly over
the snow covered foothills of the
mountain range and terrifying glaciers.
