 Should the Senate refuse approval or the League plan, Italy's entrance into the Big Four probably would be facilitated for Britain. France and Japan would be compelled to yield Fmme to Rome were America to cease cxerting a direct mllu- cnce upon European affairs
 Being at peace with Germany withou. reservations of any kind, Britain now can proceed to trade with Germany withou reservation of any nature.
 Immediate appointment of trade, con sular and diplomatic agents is to be onticl patcd In fact. there may be German ann bassador and German consuls in Britain and it's domuious long before the Senate has terminated its debate on the treaty.
 Consequently, it is probable that fnan- cial arrangements for the rehabilitation oI German industry will be handled princi- palv through London New York may fur uish the money OF the credits, but British fnanciers will conduct the negotiations and the disbursement of the loans.
 TO am extent. of course, American man uractmcrs will be handicapped by this ar engagement. although American producers of raw materials probably will not suffer because Germany must have American products. However, in many instances, it is likely contracts even for raw materials vii go to producers in British Dommions rather than to concerns in tms country.
 The inevitable result of this situation will bc the cxertiou of terrific pressure up- on Congress m the near future, which op- poucuts of the treaty may resent, but which the Senate will mot bc able to escape

BRITAIN MAY PICK PLUM

Great Britain is at peace with Ger muy-at peace without reservation of any kind or character.
 It also is committed to a policy of as- sistug France in the event that country is subject to mprovokcd attack by Germany.
 Out of these two circumstances flow a number of interesting results, which mod cr America, go party to all international af- fairs. cannot afford to ignore
 Whatever attitude the United States Senate may adopt, England and France toe day stand united before the world The primary cause for their alliance is a mutual fear of Germany; but history affords proof that compacts of this kind frequently de- vc'op a community of interest which finds expression under certain circumstances, iu ways that surprise and often eoniomd the makers thereof
