Text of the Letter.
"MN Dear Senator /:

MY Dear Senator:
You were good enough to bring
me word that the democratic senators
supporting the treaty expected to
hold a conference before the final
vote on the Lodge resolution OF rati-
fication and that they would be glad
to receive a word OF counsel from
me.
81 should hesitate to offer IL in any
detail. but L assume that the SEN
ators only desire my judgment upon
the all-important question of the final
vote on the resolution containing the
many reservations by Senator Lodge.
On that | cannot hesitate, for in my
opinion the resolution in that form
does not provide for ratification. but
rather for the nullification OF the
treaty. I sincerely hope that the
friends and supporters of the treaty
Will vote against the Lodge resoiu-
tion of ratification.
Il understand that the door viii
probably then be open for a genuine
resolution of ratification.
Il trust that all true friends of the
treaty 'will refuse to support the
Lodge resolution.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
WOODROW WILSON"

read.

Keeping Up With
The Times
A FACT A DAY

Compliments are Of all
kinds, but one Of the worth
while variety is when a
man backs his expression
of opinion with his money.
That has just happened
in favor Of the Automotive
Section, which is a regular
feature of Saturdays issue
of The Times. 1t happens
that the general manager of
one of the largest concerns
in the country has been
watching the development of
The Times automotive pages
for some months. 1t is his
practice to avoid placing
his advertising in or ad-
joining the so-called auto
mobile pages of newspapers
in general. With The Times,
he directly reverses his reg
ular policy and frankly says
that it is because of the
merit of The Times section
and its inevitable appeal to
people who are interested in
