when, in quick succession. the resolu-
t,,nS were put L. a vote. Their passage
self. however. was no surprise as II
generally had been conceded that eacn

The request for tho treaty will bc re-
fcrrcd 10y state department officials TO
President Wilson and Secretary Lansing
at Paris and pending a reply no official

the text will be forthcoming.
Under tho investigation resolution in
PRODUCED ut the request "of the White
House by Senator Hitchcock Of Nebras-
IA. senior Democrat 70 the fore gn rela-
lions committee, it is expected that a
far-rcaching inquiry will begin within
a few days. The committee will meet
Monday to formulate" ptans. which may
include the cummnning Of members OF
the American peace delegation.
Adoption OF the Hitchcock resolution
came first. just after tho debate had
reached a dramatic climax in clash
between Mr.. Hitchcock and Chairman
Lodge Of The foreign relations commit
tee. After this clash request by Mr..
Lodge that the senate substitute an in
vcStIgatIon resolution drawn by Scna-

was withdrawn and the question was
put on adoption.
