Washington. Nov I.-Senator Hitch
cock OF Nebraska the administration
leader in the treaty tight in the sen
ate, went to the white house today 10
vations with President Wilson, This
was the first personal conference the
President had had with any senator
since Illness compelled him to abaTa-
don his western tour in the interest
Of the treaty.
Senator Hitchcock outlined the plan
to be followed in consideration Of the
committee reservations. and The Pres,
ident gave general approval,
He was laudatory OF the success
we have achieved so far the senator
said. and expressed the hope W
would be able TO WCrk out some settle
ment between the reservation senators
and those who favor unqualified dC-
ceptance of the treaty whereby we
could meet on common grounds.
Senator Hitchcock explained to the
President the present status OF the
treaty and gave it as his opinion the
Republicans could secure adoption OF
the committee reservations while the
the senate sat in the committee Of he
whole. as only majority vote was re-
quired.
Our intentions then, if the reserva-
tions still are in their present form,
is TO oppose the resolution OF ratitca-
tion. Some Democrats, of course,
probably will not line up wi h US on

enough votes to defeat such a resOu-
tion of ratification, because lwo-thirda
will be required We then will offer
resolution of ratification without res
ervations, which may be defeated

would be, and he replied that w-ud

In the first strength test on the
reservations to tne peace treaty pre-
posed by The foreign relations commit
tee the senate refused today by a vote
of 4S to 40 to strike out the provisions
which would require acceptance of
the reservations by the other powers.
Senator McCumber was the only Re
publican voting for the resolution
BY the same vo:e and with the rainc
partisan alignment the senate re-
jected another amendment offered by
Senator MCCumber to the preamble
proposing that acceptance Of reserya
tiOns might be- affected by exchange
of diplomatic notes. The committee
preamble requires such an exchange
of notes.
The senate also rejected proposal
by Senator BOrah, Republican. to re
quire that all four instead OF thre
