SEPARATE PEACE POSSIBLE

Although it is understood there is no
present intention of attempting to ne
gotiate a separate peace with Germany,
officials have considered that an ulti-
mate possibility should the present treaty
be definitely rejected.
In that connection some officials
hold that the provisions of this lat
ter agreement. already accepted as be-
tween Germany and four of the great
POWERS, require the Berlin government
to submit to the League of Nations
for approval any treaty made in fu-
ture
They interpret this clause as apply
ing to any separate treaty the United
States now might propose to Germany,
although of course the stipulation
would not be binding on the side of
this country.
1T do not agree" said Senator Hitch
cock in his statement today, with the
proposition that the treaty is dead. To
my mind the Senate is now in dead
lock over the treaty. 1t voted on three
distinct propositions of ratification
ONLY Is AGAINST
Scanning these votes and taking
into account senators who were paired,
it appeared that only 8 senators voted
against ratification in every form.
Fourteen Of these were republicans;
one was democrat
TN my opinion. il the President
sends the treaty back to the Senate in
December it will be possible out of the
80 senator's who voted for ratification
in some form to find Ga senators who
will agree Npon a compromise.
Heretofore the overwhelming senti-
ment and pressure of this country has
been in favor of ratification From
now on I believe that the sentiment
of this country will be for compro-
mise In my opinion. public sentiment
will not tolerate a condition in which
longer delay is sure to ripen into dis
aster.
TT is unfortunate that in the past
the so senators who believe in the
treaty in some form have not been able
to negotiate among themselves on
reservations In some form. Those two
camps must now come together and
must be freed from the dictation and
influence of senators who are opposed
to the treaty in any form. Those sem
ators have had entirely too much voice
in formulating the reservations"
