Want Glass i'm Senate
To Aid'the Treaty
Administration Leaders Eager
to Have Secretary of Treas.
ury Take Martins Seat

WASHINGTON, Nov. II. - Carter
Glass, Secretary of the Treasury, had
not determined tonight just when he
would resign to accept appointment as
successor to Senator Thomas s. Mar
tin, of Virginia, who died last week.
After Mr.. Glass was notified by
Governor Davis that he had been Sc
lected over a host of others he sought
the advice of President Wilson, who
urged him to accept. He probably will
send formal letter of acceptance to
Governor Davis tomorrow.
In the absence Of any direct state
ment from Mr., Glass there WAS diff
ference of opinion in official quarters
tonight as to the probable time Of his
retirement from the Treasury. Ordi-
narily he would not retire before De-
cember /, when the regular session Of
Congress opens, but some Democratic
leaders were said to have advised that
he present his credentials Immediately
and thus help out in the treaty fight.
There was much speculation as to
who would be named by the President
to take Mr.. Glass's place as head of
the Treasury Department. More than
Il dozen names were mentioned, as al
ways happens when there is Cabinet
vacancy, but no one seemed to have
any decided lead, in the opinion Of
officials in touch with the situation.
Mr.. Glass told friends to-day he
would make a recommendation if the
President desired, but declined to say
whom he might have in mind

In the preamble that three Of the four
principal powers must formally assent

Here are some Of their expressions,
which are Characteristic of all:
Senator Spencer Of Missouri (mild
reservationist) - Undoubtedly minor
changes will be made in some Of the
reservations, including the so-called
preamble, in order to get the necessary
two-thirds vote with which to ratify
the treaty. for one am willing to
agree to change in the preamble in
order to have the treaty ratified.
Senator Lenroot, Of Wisconsin (mild

amble SO as to require the acceptance
of the reservations by acquiesence in
stead of formally. l believe this will
be done. l told Senator Hitchcock that
he should submit any proposition he
has to Senator Lodge, and then we
would decide what we are going to do"
Senator Watson, Indiana Qieutenant
of Senator Lodge: eve may change
some of the reservations in order to
have the treaty ratified. The big fight
is on the preamble. The changes must
be slight, as there are at least 81 SEN
ators who will vote to reject it unless
the treaty itself is changed mate

Senator Mccormick, Illinois (ir-
reconcilable): ~ not think the mild
reservationists will go through with
their program. The treaty cannot be
ratified if any material changes are
made in the reservations"
Senator Kellogg, Minnesota (mild
reservationist): awe have made no
promises, but l for one am willing to
consider q change in the preamble" >"
Senator Edge, New Jersey (mild

IT, S. Virtually Kills
Treaty, Says Cecil
Lord Robert Tells Conn.,
mons Britain Cannot
Ignore the Reservations

LONDON, Nov. II (By The Asso-
ciated Press).-Lord Robert Cecil,
speaking in the House of Commons to-
day, declared that it would be i'm
possible for Great Britain to ignore
the seriousness of the action of the
United States Senate on the peace
treaty with Germany.
He said that while he did not care
to express an opinion on the legit-
macy of the Senate's action from the
American point Of view, he did be-
lieve the reservations that. provision
ally had been accepted amounted al
most to the reputation of the
covenant, and the reputation OF the
covenant meant the reputation of the
treaty.
"At the best" continued Lord
Robert, nothing is to be expected but
a long period of negotiations and the
possibility Of further rejection when
the negotiations are concluded. We de-
sire American cooperation and Ameri
can leading, but if the United States
desires not to share in this great in
ternational effort, we must 90 on, and
the burden would be the greater upon
us and the other nations"

that all the Lodge reservations are
unacceptable"
did he say which of the reserva-
tons he would be willing to accept ?''
was asked
Il know the Presidents ideas on that
subject, but do not feel free to ouote
him." said Senator Hitchcock "The
one he considers as killing the treaty
without any action from him is the
first reservation, Erequiring three of
the four principal Allied powers to
consent to the reservations adopted by
specific formal action. He regards that
reservation as bad as an amendment"
"How about Article X?"
That is very Objectionable" said
the Senator.
Are your statements with refer
ence 20 these reservations a reflection
OF the Presidents ideas 2"
II dc not want to quote him at this
time,' was Senator Hitchcock's an
swer.

action would be taken if tbs Lodge
resolution of ratification commanded
the two thirds vote necessary for adop-
ton.
II think the President would like
TO have the treaty defeated in the SEN
ate rather than to assume all respon-
sihility for its rejection" said Senator
Hitchcock, "and l told him that that
would be the probable outcome.
II am satisfied that the President
will withdraw the treaty after the
Lodge resolution of ratification is de-
feated unless the deadlock promises
means of compromise. We could
then send the treaty back in the next
session of Congress or later"
Odd you discuss any means of end
Ing the war with Germany If the pres
ent treaty is rejected?"
eve did not. We did not consider
the possibility of passing a Joint or
concurrent resolution"
Senator Hitchcock stated that "nc
definite conclusion has been reached

The reaction Of the Neic York press
to yesterdays developments IN the peace
treaty situation IN Washington is indf
Gated ~ the jolowing entrocts from,
this mornin0's editorials:
The Times
at is an emergency, it is II crisis in
the affairs Of the nation and Of the
world that calls upon tho Republicans
OF the Senate to join the Democrats
IN sufficient numbers to secure the
ratification of the treaty. This will
require twenty or more Republican
votes. They should be found, tHy must
be found. if the Republican party is to
escape the odium Of excluding the
United States from the benefits Of the
treaty of Versailles.
ut is for them to say whether they
and their party want to go before the
country next year in the Presidential
campaign upon the record they will
have made by rejecting the league
covenant for the worlds peace while
at the same time appropriating more
than a billion dollars of the heavily
burdened taxpayers money for war
purposes"
The Herald
"Despite Senator HitchcocN's an
nouncement it does not seem probable
that President Wilson will pocket
and thereby kill-thc treaty of peace
1t is known that some influences near
to him have been working to that end; :;
but until he does take the extreme ac-
tion indicated the American people will
not believe that the President will as
sumo the responsibility for the treaty's
death. AS for the members Of the
Senate who are insisting upon the
reservations designed to protect the
interests of the country it would not
be at ali surprising if they we're to
regard the Hitchcock announcement as
something closely resembling a bluff"
The World
"With the preamble and the reserva-
tons that have been adopted by the
Senate, the treaty on which it is pre-
pairing to vote is not the treaty of
peace that was signed at Versailles
June %. 1t is not the treaty of peace
that has been ratified by Germany and
by Great Britain, France, Italy, Japan
and Belgium. II is merely the tenta-
tive draft OF treaty suggested by the
Senate majority as substitute for the
treaty that the other beligerents have
adopted and are preparing to carry into
effect. AS such it has no diplomatic

WM Affect Minor Nations

PARIS, Nov. 1.-THE news of the
adoption by the United States Senate
of ten reservations to the German
peace treaty was received with great
intercs, in peace conference circles.
The point apparently beng most dis
cusscd by the delegates in general is
as to whether the Senate ultimately
will insist upon the reservations being
formally approved by the other gov.
ernments as now specified in the pre-
amble. In French circles the indica-
tions are that the French government
is not prepared to give it's formal ap-
proval.
There likewise is much speculation
as to how far the American reserva-
tons might possibly affect the reserva+
tions some Of the minor nations, such
as China, Rumania and Jugo- Slavia de-
sire to make.
China never has signed the German
peace treaty. The Chinese delegates
offered to sign it subject to reserva
tion on the question of Shantung. but
were not permitted to do So Rumania
and Jugo-Slavia did not sign the
Austrian peace treaty, taking excep-
tion to the clause regarding the pro
