WILSON TELLS
SENA TORS
To. KILL
PACT
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19-A letter
from President Wilson advising ad-
mlnlstration senator's to vote against
the ratification of the peace treaty
with foreign relations committee
amendments was laid before the con-
ference of administration senate
forces today by Democratic Leader
Hitchcock.
The committee program, the presi-
dent wrote, would provide not for
ratification, "but rather for nullifica-
tion of the treaty."
Republican Leader Lodge, in an in
formal statement, predicted that the
senate would not obey the "orders of
President Wilson with regard to the
treaty."
The senate has equal power and re-
sponsibility with the president in the
making of treaties, the senator said
"They will not, in my opinion, obey
the orders Of president who under
takes to command the senate to rati-
fy the treaty without the reservations
adopted by large majority of the
senate which Americanize it and
make it safe for the United States.'
The decision of the Democratic
friends of the treaty to vote against
the resolution of ratification contain
ing the Lodge reservations was af-
firmed at conference of Democrats.
Senator Hitchcock said enough
Democrats to insure it's defeat had
agreed to vote against the Lodge
resolution.
Immediately after the senate met,
Senator Lodge formally presented the
resolution of ratification containing
the Is reservations. At 3 o'clock the
senate was engaged in a debate on
the Lodge resolution of ratification,
with no indication that a vote was
an immediate prospect.
