SENATORS FAVOR
SIGNING TREATIES
COMMITTEE WILL RECOMMEND
THAT AGREEMENTS DRAWN
UP BE RATIFIED.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 30-The SEN
ate foreign relations committee today.
voted to recommend immediate rati-
fication of general arbitration treaties
with Great Britain, Japan and other
nations, twenty-four treaties in all.
These have been pending since last
summer when their original five year
limitations expired.
The treaties are twenty-four in num-
Der, one with the following nations.
that with France having been renewed
last year:
China, Denmark, Great Britain, Italy,
Japan, Mexico, Netherland, Norway.
Peru, Portugal, Salvatore, Spain,
Sweden, Switzerland, Austria Hungary,
Costa Rica, Haiti, Paraguay, Argen-
tine Republic, Bolivia, Ecuador, Ur-
uguay, Chile and Brazil. ~
The treaty with Great Britain had
been held up because some feared it's
ratification might force arbitration at
The Hague of the Panama canal tolls
controversy.
President Wilson's attitude on that
question is generally understood to be
that this provision is violation of the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty. Congress may
settle the dispute either by repeating
the free passage clause or suspending.
it's operation pending diplomatic ne
gotiations.
The California alien land question
was indirectly involved in the JAP
anese arbitration treaty. but the ad.
ministration view that the controversy
practically is at an end settled the
minds of the majority of the foreign re-
-
eral arbitration treaty with Japan was
concerned ...r5.
