Without waiting for the president to

tention of seeking this extension
through an amendment to the bill to
extend for six months the Lever food

Attorney General Palmer.
The unrest throughout the country
has caused many members TO question
advisability OF lifting the war ban.

SENATE DEMOCRATS PLANNING CAUCUS TONIGHT
T0DETERM|NE final ATTITUDE ON PEACE pact:
REPUBLICANS GET MAJORITY FOR RESERVATIONS
Administration Leader to Visit
President and Convey His
Sentiments to Party Sena-
tors at Meeting.

Washington, Nov. 6.-Democratic
leaders in the senate are planning
tonight to determine upon
their final attitude on the treaty, 1t
was learned today.
Senator Hitchcock issued the word
for the meeting which will follow a
between him and President
Wilson at the White House.
Hitchcock will outline the reserva
ton situation to the president and
hopes to reach a decision as to whe-
ther the majority reservations shall
be accepted or whether administration
forces will be turned against the
treaty with opposition reservations.
Hitchcock is said to have become con-
vinced that the Republicans have
mustered a majority for reservations
recently proposed by the foreign rela-
tions committee. Mild and strong
reservationists have agreed to support
the preamble which would require ex-
press assent of at least three leading
allied powers to the senate reserva- :
tions. This, together with article 10
reservation are construed by some ad-
ministration leaders as amounting to
amendments in effect, although not in
form.
Whether the Democratic forces are
ready to vote against final ratification
on those conditions is the question to
be threshed at the conference today
Senate leaders on both sides are ex-
pecting final showdown on reserva-
tions before the end of next week.
BY viva voce vote the senate today
rejected the Gore amendment, but Sen
ator LaFollette moved reconsideration
A record vote was then ordered.

jected the Gore amendment,- 81 to ~
