West Indies Sale Dispute
To Be Settled in Rigs
dag Conference.
KING Is FEARFUL
OF ROUSING VOTERS
Nation FavOrS Island Deal,
but War Might Be
Made Issue.

Copenhagen. Sept. 26.-As a result Of
interviews had with the representatives
of various parties, it is disclosed that
the question of the sale Of the Danish
West Indies TO the United States will be
settled without resort 10 "A general
election on the basis of the government
bill which has now passed all stages
and been sent 10 a JOINT committee OF
both houses of Parliament. IL Is APP
parent that everybody in the Rigsdag IS
tired of the question.
The American Department of state,
il is said here, laid great emphasis on
absolute secrecy during the negotlB-
tons preceding the framing Of the
treaty. and the statesmen who conducted
these preliminaries for the Danish gov
eminent were eager that Nashlngtons
wishes should be observed.
Denials were made that any negotla-
tions for the sale of the islands were
on. and when, few days later, the OF.
fetal announcement OF the framing OF
the treaty was made. the opponents OF
the government seized the opportunity
for which they had long been looking.
The debate in the Rigsdag turned al
most exclusively on morals. philosophy
the naughtiness of lying, etc.
The sale of the West Indies dropped
out of sight after the first day Of the
debate and was not again heard OF, es-
cent indirectly. The government was
bitterly attacked BY the Left Party
and the allied Conservatives, and II was
soon evident that there was little hope
that the treaty could be confirmed, for
the Left, although in minority in the
Folkething, or lower house of the Far
lament, had no fewer than thirty mem
bcrs out Of q total membership of SIX
ty-two-four OF the slxty-siX seats
were vacant-in the Landsthing, or
upper house.
The efforts of the government 10
save the situation we're foredoomed 70
failure. II could not even count. in
its endeavor TO form a coalition Cab
met. on the support of the Socialists,
for these, although willing to work
with the Radicals 10 save the treaty,
were opposed on principle TO assuming
any responsibility in any except an
exclusively Socialist Cabinet.
Apart from this, however, IL was evi-
dent that the Left and Conservatives
the "outs"-were determined TO bring
about general elections. and the
moral" detection with which the gov
crnment was charged. evidenced by its
denials preceding the making of the
treaty, although in itself no great
issue, was still an issue Of a sort. and
very welcome to a party which had long
found itself without anything even APP
preaching one.
The governments reluctance TO have
general elections held at this time was
plainly not dictated by a fear of their
outcome. But the King and those
around him did and DO fear the posi-
Bile consequences Of "A heated campaign
in Denmark, into which the question OF
the war and Dcnmark's attitude may
possibly be dragged.
Many leading political observer be
