Dry Leaders Would
Cinch Prohibition
By Rider On Bill

WASHINGTON, Nov. I. tSp1)-A de-
termined effort to prevent the lifting
of wartime prohibition before constitu-
tional prohibition becomes effective next
January. Is to be made by the dry"
forces in congress.
The plan proposed is by attaching a
rider on the amendment to the Lever
food control act requested by Attorney
General Palmer. This rider would stiD-
ulate that wartime prohibition mret
remain in effect until Jan. Is, 1920.
Such a step is said to have the approval
of the Anti-Saloon league and win be
fathered in house by REPRESENTATIVE
Randall, prohibitionist. of California.
Doubt is expressed by dry" leaders,
however, whether this legislation can
be enacted before the close of session
and even If introduced the antiprohi-
! bitionists hope To defeat 1t on parlia-
nentary grounds.
Dry leaders contend that this meas
ure will have the support Of the coun-
| try in that to lift the ban now would
| result In a continued sprce until c n
stitutional prohibition becomes effective
and that with the stocking UP OF cellars
would vastly increase the work OF law
| enforcement officers in ferreting out
bootleggers.

Hold View Valid.

Many Democrats recognize that po-
sition on the part Of their political OPP
ponents as valid and are ready there
fore to enter into an agreement on a
set Of reservations which are mutually
acceptable. If, after disposing of the
first two ratifying resolutions-the one
offered by Senator Lodge embodying the
extreme Republican position and the
other offered by Senator Hitchcock as
a matter of record on behalf of the
| presidents position-there should com
before the senate a r%atifying resolution
containing reservations along the lines
| suggested by Charles Evans Hughes or
William Howard Taft and if such a res
olution Is offered by one of the so-called
mild reservationists' among the Re-
publicans, it would he a comparatively
simple matter to get the necessary two
thirds vote to ratifv7 the treaty,
But so long as the extreme Repub-
leans can. by parliamentary maneuver
or otherwise, bring about the defeat of
the peace treaty-which they think
| would be a good thing for America
just so long will it be impossible for
the Democrats to offer a compromise
resolution. once the two sides have
seen that on the question of giving the
senate All opportunity to vote on the
ratifying resolutions of majority and
minority is something that should have
nothing to do with the merits of the
respective resolutions but is merely q
| right to each side to get a record vote
the serate itself being the judge OF
what It wishes passed or defeated
then there will be a change in the situa-
tion.
The Democrats have had their caucus.
The Republicans too are comforting as
to whether they should allow the treaty
to be killed bv parliamentary maneu-
vers, explaining to the country that the
Democrats were responsible, or whether
they should obtain a definite agree
ment with the Democrats on reserva-
tons in advance of the first vote on
the ratifying resolution, a course that
is being urged by some of the mild res
ervationists.
But the whole thing is now coming
to a climax and within another fort.

members of the senate are sincerely
anxious for some league Of nations ant

GIVEN BLAME FOR
DELAY ON TREATY
Lawrence Shows Attitude Of
Antagonists Who Think
They Can Kill Pact Is Pre-
venting Final Senate Action
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.
Especial Correspondence Of The New
Scirnitar,)

WASHINGTON, Nov. The true
state Of affairs with respect to a vote
on the peace treaty row can be re-
vesled. Both Republicans and Demo
Gratis claim they are ready to respond
10 the demand of the country for a
Tina vote this month. but every effort
to set r date for a vote has failed be
cause as a matter of fact the spirit
Of compromise has not yet been recog-
nized as absolutely necessary by the
extremists who think they can yet de-
feat the whole treaty.
Briefly, the Republican management
offered to set a date on which the
treaty could be FINALLY disposed Of"
BY that they meant final action on the
ratifying resolution which contains res
ervations proposed by the senate for
eign relations committee. The Demo
Gratis objected to the use OF the word
final because they believed II would
prevent them from offering another rat
flying resolution If they constituted
themselves into the necessary one-third
to defeat the senate foreign relation
committees resolution.
So the procedure Is going to he some
thing like this: The Republicans will
press for a vote on reservations which
will command a majority and thus be
come part of the ratifying resolution.
Then the vote on that resolution. which
requires two-thirds, will be defeated be-
cause the Democrats consider many res
ervations equivalent to amendments,
requiring resubmission Of the treaty tc
foreign governments and necessitating
prolonged negotiation,
The Republicans would naturally seek
to attach the blame for the defeat OF
the treaty then on the Democrats, but
the latter are ready to explain to the
country that the ratifying resolution
with the extreme reservations in 1t was
tantamount to a destruction of the
treaty and they felt it incumbent &c
refuse to approve such a resolution In
order that the senate might vote or
another kind Of resolution. in which
reservations not so extreme would bt
inserted.
The big questions are;
