treaties pending renewal with Great

the senate took the first decisive step
In the policy of the administration to
lift the United States from what Of
Gals have characterized as its "iso-

withhold from arbitration such impor-
tant international issues as immigra-
ton, the question Of admitting aliens
to domestic schools, affairs involving
the Monroe doctrine, and the provi-
slons Of the Panama canal act exempt
Ing American coastwise shipping from
tolls. This amendment was rejected
by vote of 10 to 40, more than two
thirds majority.
This result was regarded by admin
tstration leaders as marking the end
Of the controversy over the govern.
ments foreign policy and assuring the
ratification of the treaties which ex.
pired more than a year ago with Great

be put upon their ratification yester-
