FOR TREATY RATIFICATION
Eighty Senators Out of Ninety
Five, Favor 1t.
Some With and Some without
Reservations.

New York, Dec. 3.AThe League to
Enforce Peace is making a tremen-
dous effort to secure ratification of
the treaty.
1t says the treaty, even with the
reservations now adopted can ac-
complish the task of preserving the
peace of the world; that any action
which casts the covenant or League
of Nations r peace into the partisa n
politics of a presidential election, will
delay peace and halt political recog-
nization and economic rehabilitation
of nations seriously burdened by war,
winter and famine; that failure to
ratlfy the treaty now would defeat the
worlds hopes for. peace now and al
ways: that if the league be once estab-
liShed and permitted to function with
our country as members, the founda-
ton of a new world would continue
to grow in beneficent stability secur-
ing for all nations, great and small,
peace with justice.
A Great Step Forward.
The league believes that the reser-
vations leave enough of the treaty SO
that We could afford to accept it in
full knowledge that such ratification
would register the greatest step in adj
vance that has ever been taken in inter-
national affairs and would create a
going organization that would GER
tainly command the confidence and
the loyalty of the world and would
be strengthened from time to time in
the future as experience showed that
this could be safely and ADVANTAGE
ously done.
These eighty senators favor ratifica-
tion of the treaty, some with and some
without reservations:
