 THE PEACE NOTE
LODGE BITTERLY COMMENTS ON WILSON'S SECRECY AND
 RESOLUTION LAID OVER.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Another of the exceedingly bitter fights but the most bitter of all, took place today over the resolution of Senator Hitchcock to endorse the action of President Wilson in sending the note asking for a peace discussion, and the resolution as a result has been laid over. Senator Lodge bitterly commented on the secrecy of the ad- miniStration in connection with the note and he warned the senate against approving of the interference by this country until President Wilson directly asks approval, at least. Sen atoY Hamilton Lewis defended the note, and Senator Stone, who has just been in conference with the Presi- dent, declared that until it is seen that the note is of no use he will approve of the the Wilson act before the world.
