Senator Lodge Doubts Wisdom of Five
of President Wilson'S IA
Peace Points.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21-Five of
President Wilson s II principles of
peace were held up in the senate today
by Senator Lodge as questions which
might lead to division among the ma
tions which have conquered Germany
and which certainly should be postponed
until after the peace conference.
They are the first four and last of the
points cnunciated by the President in
his speech of Jan. 10 and relate to
secret diplomacy, freedom of the seas,
economic barriers, reduction of arma
fmcHt' and the league of rations.
The senator said the United States
must share in indemnities imposed ON
Germany, mot only direct indemnity
for its ships destroyed by submarines
and its people murdered on the Lusi-
tania and other vessels, but suitable
restitution in part at least of the vast
expenses forced upon US by Germany -
