to commit the senate against any AL

In favor OF a reaffirmation OF the Mon

In resolution presented by him. the
senate Is asked to take firm stand
against any departure from the his

The resolution is looked upon As
being OF considerable Importance espe-
cially In view OF its probable effect
upon the peace negotiations.
Senator Borah yesterday introduced
resolution to have all discussions OF
the peace treaty conducted in the open
session Of the senate.
This resolution and that introduced
today are designed to lay the founda-
tion for discussion of the peace
terms which will give the widest pub
licity to all their proposals.
In the preamble OF his resolution
Senator Borah calls attention to the
words OF Washington's farewell ad-

The resolution also recites the mes

In which the Monroe Doctrine was set
forth. The resolution adds;
Whereas, the policies thus early
announced by Washington. Jefferson
