REPUBLICANS MAY
AMEND COVENANT
FOR REFERENDUM
Word is Passed Down the
Line That This is to Be
the Policy.
TO RATIFY TREATY.
No Objection to Main
Document, if League
Constitution is Gotten
Out Of the Way.
TO RATIFY TREATY.
Ry James r. Nonrss..

Washin gton. May S.--"Separate the
league of nations covenant from the
treaty and rttify the treaty without
delay. Then arr end the covenant and
submit it TO the people of the United
States for referendum vote"
This is the word that was passed
down the line 10 RepubIica senators
today 1t IS authoritatively stated that
it will be the Republican policy in the
senate with respect to the treaty and
the league. Leaders announced that
they will he able to muster the votes
to tear the league covenant out of the
treaty and after amending it send it
to the people for sanction or disap-
prevail
The adoption Of this policy means
Iat every Republican senator not to
speak of rfle Democrats -wiil be in
favor OF -atifving the treaty II the
league constitution can be Cotton out
OF II. They viii not quarrel over any
OF the terms imposed upon Germany
nor make fuss over them.
The Rerv elieans want the treaty
ratified as quickly as /: can be done
and here is the reason:
Ratification OF the treaty means the
speedy return OF all the Americans
from Europe--from Siberia and
France, or wherever else they may be
scattered. The law which brought
them into service requires that they be
demohilized within four months from
the day that peace is officially de-
ciared. Hence the sooner congress de-
ctares thar yhe war is at an end the
sooner the boys will be discharged
from service.
II will require only \ majority vote
! IN the senate to spar ate me league
OF nations covenant from the peace
treaty. The Republican leaders an
rounce they have the votes TO do this,
II was also stntad on the authority
of some of the leaders in the fight
against the League that Senator Lodge
will work hard for the proposal to
have a referendum of the people on
the entire league question
