FIRST VOTE ON
LEAGUE Will. Be
HELD NEXT WEEK
Johnson Called Back to Debate
On British Voting Amend
ment.

Washington, Sept. l8.-Republi-
can leaders made ready today for
the first voting test next week on
the German peace treaty and it's
League of Nations covenant.
Word was sent to Senator johnson
Of California, author Of an amend
ment to equalize the voting power
of Great Britain and the United
States in the league, to return here
at once so that debate on the amend
ment might proceed Monday.
Until this message to the Cali
fornia senator was sent by Senator
Borah Of Idaho, after conference
late in the day with Chairman
Lodge Of the foreign relations COM
mittee, the report had persisted
around the capitol that Senator
Johnson might be absent several
weeks. Senator Lodge declared
there would be no vote on amend
ments this week, and opponents of
the league were prepared to resist
attempts to force one by Senator
Hitchcock of Nebraska, leader of the
administration fight for ratifica-
ton.
The treaty will be called up for
consideration tomorrow after two
day interruption. Actual reading of
the pact, which stopped short Tues
day after Article 3 of the league
covenant had been reached. is con-
siderably more of a lob than the
man not familiar with senatorial
discussions in international questions
mieht imagine. The printed text
makes book almost as big and quite
as heavy as a New York city tele-
phone directory. Every line of it
must be read. with endless debate
on some sections, running, perhaps
into weeks.
It's size to say nothing Of impor-
lance Of the document, explains why
senator's generally decline to pre-
dict how long it may be before fin
ally voted on. 1t is the intention of
Chairman Lodge. in charge Of the
treaty. to call it up everv day not
later than two o'clock. An amend
ment by Senator Moses. republican
Of New Hampshire, relatinp to adj
Indications Of disputes referred to
assembly. will be reached tomorrow
after a ten minute reading of the
league covenant text. Opponents OF
the covenant said tonight the read
ing would be halted at that point
for quite a bit of discussion, but
that they would prevent a vote on
it this week.
Discussing his telegram to Sena-
tor johnson. ureing the California
senator's immediate presence here,
Senator Borah said debate on the
British-Americsn voting amendment
might 90 on for a week with the
hone Of a vote at the end of that
time. Senator Johnson. he said
could resume his speeach- making
trip against the league.

Washington, Sept. 18.-Reachinp
It's climax today in the house cham
Der, the nations welcome to General
John j. Pershing came to an end
when the thanks of congress and of
the American people were extended
to him and to the army he COM
handed.
There were no military bands OF.
ranks of soldiery. Only one flag
which draped on the wall back of the
speakers chair, was displayed The
only other touch of color was the
uniforms Of the high officers of the
army and navy gathered to see a
comrade given highest honors. But
the warmth of the greeting he re-
ceived, coupled with the fact that few
Americans ever have been similarly
honored, could have left no doubt in
General Pershing's mind that it was
the heart of the nation that spoke to
him.
Senators, representatives, and hum
dreds in the galleries arose as Cen
eral Pershing and his party entered
the chamber.
Marching like a soldier on parade,
the general strobe to the chair in the
very center before the speakers desk
reserved for him. The tumult of well
come subsidized only when Speaker
Gillett raped for order.
Senator Cummins Of Iowa, presi-
dent pro tenn of the senate, from his
place beside Speaker Gillett, gave the
first greetings. His references to
the valor Of the troops in France
brought frequent burst of applause.
Speaker Gillett delivered few re-
marks and then the former speaker,
Camp Clark of Missouri, General
'Pershing's' home state, explained to
the general the resolution Of thanks
congress had adopted. Senators and
representatives stood to honor Mr..
Clark as he rose to stand directly in
front of General Pershing, talking
in conversational tone.
Pershing's Reply.
When General Pershing rose to re-
ply and faced the house, a deafening
applause greeted him, the whole as
sembly standing with him.
Acknowledging the honors confer
red by congress, General Pershing

community dance. For more than
two hours devotees Of the one-step,
the glide and the waltz-hesitatio
and old style-enjoyed themselves
while hundreds looked on. Inciden-
tally, the argument of some of the
opponents Of dancing that "if people
dance simply for the love of dancing,
and not because of the sex lure why
don't men dance with men, and wom-
en- with women" received an awful
jolt. For girls were seen dancing
with girls and boys dancing with
bows
