Republican Lawmakers Tell Mr..

My back is sitter than ever for

of New Hampshire said today after
conference with President Wilson
at the White House.
Senator Keyes, who was one of
the signers of the round robin on
the league of nations circulated by
republican senators in the closing
hours of the last Congress. told the
President he favored reservations
along the lines proposed by former
President Taft, Charles Evans Hughes
and Elihu Root.
Reservations or Fail, Mr.. New Says
Senator New of Indiana. a repub-
lican member of the foreign rela-
tions committee, said, after a visit
to the White House, that he had told
the President 1t would be utterly
impossible to get the Senate to ac-
cept the peace treaty as IT stands
and that it either would be ratified
with reservations or fail"
Senator New said he told the Presi-
dent he was utterly opposed to article
x of the league of nations covenant.
He added that in reply to the Presi-
dents statement that adoption of res
ervations by the Senate might set
precedent for other nations, he had
said that the question of reservations
was one for the United States to de-
eide regardless Of the effect on other
countries.

CABINET
DECIDES TO RESIGN
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
VIENNA. July 81 (via Bern) The
Austrian cabinet headed by DIR. Karl
Renner has decided to resign.
LONDON, July 31.-A message re-
ceived here from Vienna by way of
Bern says 1t has been semi-officially
announced in the Austrian capital
that the cabinet reached a decision to
resign at a meeting held Tuesday.
Austrian governmental affairs have
recently been in a rather unsettled
state. The peace terms presented by
the allied and associated powers to the
Austrians at St. Germain-en-Laye
have been stoutly protested against in
official circles in Vienna, the financial
provisions being considered as par
ticularly onerous and predictions be-
ing made that Austria Hungary was
likely to be driven into bankruptcy.
Last week DIR. Otto Bauer, the for
eign minister, resigned his post
largely, 1t was said, because Of dis
satisfaction at his failure to obtain
important advantages for Austria
Hungary in the negotiations leading
up to the formulation of the peace
treaty Chancellor Renner, however,
filled the gap caused by DR.. Bauers
resignation by taking over the duties
of the foreign Office himself, in addi-
ton to those of the chancellorship.
