Dor by delegates from ten countries
including the United States.
President Wilson submitted to the
senate only the treaty containing the

proposed supplementary treaty under
which the United States would agree
to go to the aid of France in case
of an unprovoked assault on that coun-
try by Germany will be presented sep
arately at a later date.
The war cost the United States $780,

estimate is made by Secretary Glass.
He arrived at the estimate by sub
tracing the average peace time ex-
penses for the same length OF tlme'
at the rate of one billion dollars an
nually, from the total expenditures,
$32,427, 100000, during the war.

approval by the central government.

FIGHT TO BEGIN
ON RATIFICATION
PRESIDENT HAS TEMPORARILY
PUT MATTER OF TREATY
QUITE OUT OF MIND.
COMMITTEE TO MEET OPENLY
Japan Will Derive No Permanent Ben
efits from the Shantung Matter
During Reconstruction Period.

Washington.-Senat leaders in the
league Of nations controversy con-
tinued their conferences in prepare
ton for the ratification fight which will
begin when the senate reconvenes.
While it was said the exact lines of
division might not be drawn for some
days, further progress in solidifying
their forces was claimed by both sides.
President Wilson, having delivered
the treaty to the senate and offered to
supplement it with all the informa-
ton in his possession, apparently put
the matter temporarily out of his
mind. He saw none of the senators
who have been active in the fight and,
while he conferred with Acting Sec
rotary Polk at the state department,
it was understood other subjects furn-
ished the basis of their discussion.
Whether the Presidents offer is to
be accepted by the foreign relations
committee remained an open ques-
ton. Some of the opposition leaders
are known to oppose inviting him be-
fore the committee, but his support
ers believe they can secure his ap'
pearance should he request that they
do so. There were increasing indica-
tons that the sessions will be open to
the public.
It developed that in his converse
tons with senators at the capitol, Mr..
Wilson went into great detail regard
ing the Shantung agreement. He
was quoted as saying that the under
standing that Shantung would be re"
turned to China after reconstruc'
ton period was of very definite ma
ture, and that the only gain to Japan
would be such benefit as she might
derive from Temporary use OF the Ger
man railroads and other German
property in the territory.
