PEACELEAGUE PLAN
Senators Opposed to Idea Doubt
If Two-thirds Vote Is
Possible.

Senators opposed to the Wilson
plan for a league to enforce peace
declared today that the United
States would never enter into such q
league, and that II had become plain
no treaty of this kind could be rati-
fed by the Senate.
They pointed to the fact that the
entire Republican side would line up
against the league, as shown in the
vote yesterday on the Cummins mo-
ton, and one or more Democrats as
well.
Tw0-thIrds Vote ImpossIbie.
+ On this basis it would not be pos
sibse to get a two-thirds vote to
ratify a treaty to put the United
States into a league to enforce peace.
II it comes to the point where the
President actually negotiates q treaty
to put the United States into q
league to enforce peace. a two-thirds
vote in the Senate will be needed to
ratify.
Democrat Votes Against Nation.
Yesterday, on the motion to table
the Cummins motion, the vote was
IS to 80. While the motion carried,
nevertheless on this basis II would
not be possible to get q two-thirds
vote for the talked of treaty. Sena-
tor MARITIME OF New Jersey, Demo
crat, voted against the motion to ia
BILE. and IL is probable that IL the
President tried to line up all the
Democrats for a league to enforce
peace he would fail
The debate over the league to en-
force peace has merely begun. Sena-
tor Cummins' speech yesterday was
only q start. 1t may break out any
day Senator'S Borah and Lodge are
preparing to speak. and will do so
in a few days at most. However, the
Senate seethes with feeling on the
subject, and there is no telling when
this feeling will boil over.
