WASHINGTON, ID. c., March d.
The fight against the foreign policy Of
the President is believed to be over,
with Mr.. Wilson an easy victor. Ad-
ministration leaders in the upper
house last night declared they
are satisfied that they have secured
enough pledges To safely table the
troublesome resolution introduced by
Senator Gore, the blind solon from
Oklahoma, this morning.
In the house of representatives the
democratic leaders are confident that
they have mustered enough strength
to stifle all opposition to Mr.. Wilson's
stand for American right to travel
the high seas in the armed merchant
craft of any of the warning powers.

the senate committee on foreign af.
fairs, that war between Germany
and America might have the grateful
effect of ending the European war by
midsummer"
