Colombian realty Unlikely
of Passage Through Senate

Washington, d. C.-Already there
are indications, in the senate commit
tee on foreign relations and in the SEN
ate itself, that the administration is
abandoning the idea of securing the
ratification of the Colombian treaty of
apology. After several days of effort,
in the course of which strong opposi-
tion to the treaty developed, the adj
ministration turned from the Colom-
bian treaty to the treaty with Nicara-
qua, and now the entire effort is being
made to get action on that agreement,
it being evident that a majority of the
foreign relations committee will vote
favorably when the time comes to
make a report.
Were It not for the constitutional
requirement that treaties must be rat
flied by two-thirds vote of the SEN
ate, pressure would even now be
brought to bear to ratify the Colon
bian treaty, but the two-thirds provis-
ion cannot be waived, and preliminary
polls indicate that more than a third
of the senate is against the apology
and against the payment of $25, 000,-
900.
Moreover, some of the Colombian
lobbyists have muddled the situation
by boasting to opposition senators that
Colombia will never accept the $685.
600, 900 unless the cash consideration
is coupled with an apology and that in
the not very distant future Colombia
will get both, with the consent of the
senate.
The activity of the lobbyist has
turned several doubtful senators
against the treaty, and those who are
at odds with the administration or
this issue are seeing to it that other
senators are advised as to the moves
and tactics of the lobby. The senate
resents an effort on the outside tc
drive it into taking a specified action,
and now that the senate finds itself
held up by group of lobbyists, pre-
sumably working for large slice OF
the s25, 600, 900, and individual SEN
ators find lobbyists boasting that the
treaty will be ratified.

Blame for Sinking of En-
press of Ireland Placed

Quebec-Alfred Tuftenes, third Off
Ger of the Danish collier Storstad, was
held by the Wreck commission to be
directly to blame for the collision with
the Empress of Ireland in the st. Law
renee river that caused the loss of
more than 1000 lives.
The commission finds the young
mate was wrong and negligent in
keeping the navigation of the vessel
in his own hands and failing to call
the captain when he saw the fog COM
ing on"
The report says the disaster was not
due to any special characteristics OF
the st. Lawrence. 1t was a disaster
which might have occurred in any
river in similar circumstances. 1t is
held that the dominant cause of The
collision was the Storstad's change Of
course, which the third officer ordered
without consulting his superior, the
first officer, who was in charge of the
ship at the time.
The report notes radical conflict il
the testimony of officers of the EN-
press and of the Storstad.
Witnesses from the Storstad, >
reads the report, "say they were ap
