Opening the Door to Compromise

u RESIDENT WILSON met the opponents
/ of unconditional ratification Of the treaty
OF peace with Germany halfway Ia his invi-
tation to the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee to prepare resolution which would
give this nations Interpretation of its obi
cations under the league of nations cove
nant. Such resolution. if it makes
textual change in the peace treaty, if it is
not part of the ratifying resolution itself.
and does not require the resubmission of the
whole document to the peace conference
to the signatories Individually for approval,
cannot be Objectionable to the President.
If this means anything significant it means
, relaxation of the rigid and uncompromising
attitude on the part Of the President AT the
outset he stood against any qualifications
whatever. He asked that the treaty be rat
fed unconditiOnally, and he committed most
Of his supporters in the Senate TO such
proposition. But more mature consideration
of the doubts which have manifested them
selves on the part OF sincere friends of the
league of nations program has convinced the
President that it would be the part OF wis
dom TO reassure the country by means OF an
accompanying resolution of interpretations.
1t now remains for the Senate to decide
whether or not this offer OF peaceful solu-
ton for the league controversy is to be ac-
ceptcd or rejected 1t is reported. and gen.
orally believed that there are a score or more
OF ftepuDllCdn senators VINO are eager 10 vote
for ratification if they permitted to make
series OF mild reservations which will de-
fine more clearly the American understanding
of the league covenant. For weeks this group
of Senators has made overtures to the Demo-
cratic supporters of the league for COM
promise. AS long as the President maintained
his unbending attitude, however, it was i'm
possible for the two elements in the Senate
10 come to an agreement. Many of the
Democrats felt do the Repubican reserva
tionists that it would crafty the country il
some action could be taken that would state
more definitely this countrys position but
of the President.
Mr. Wilson has now made his move. He
has offered a basis of agreement, and in the
same utterance he has plead with the Senate
for quick action upon the treaty He has
shown the vast interests which must remain
in suspense as long as the country is, neither
at peace nor at war. He has urged with all
the force he could command that the Senate
no longer delay action which all the world
feels is imperative. And it is inconceivable
that the Senate should continue to stand mill
family against the President demanding
amendments which will make peace impos-
qualifications which will have the same gen
era effect as amendments to the text of the
treaty. There is widespread Impotence for
action The country is sick and tired of the
protracted delay in making peace. fact
which the Senate Republicans would do we'll
to bear in mind.
