HITCHCOCK ALL HET UP
BY FRENCH WAR TREATY
Difficulty of Making 1t Consistent With
Guarantee Of ePace In League
Covenant.

Washington.-Expe and not
principle Is the cause of the secret
treaty by which Great Britain and the
United States agree to the assistance
of France should she again be endan-
gered, according to the view of many
senators who are taking. part in the
debate on the league Of nations and
the peace treaty.
Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, for
merly the Democratic chairman OF the
Committee on Foreign Relations, was
81 shocked when he heard the news
of the pact, that he said he regarded
it as unnecessary but might vote for
it because the negotiations had gone
80 far that it might be embarrassing to
withdraw from the agreement. This
after he had repeatedly said on the
floor of the Senate that the old order
of things had been done away with by
the league of nations covenant and
that under it there could no longer be
any balance of power in European al
fairs. In itself the permanent alliance
between the three powers, for that is
what 1t is taken to amount to, is
concession that wars will occur in the
future and is in agreement with Pres
ident's statement at the now famous
White House dinner before his return
to Europe that the league covenant
would not prevent future conflicts.
Senator Hitchcock, however, comes
to the Presidents rescue with the old
German propaganda" bugaboo. IF
the United States refused to ratify the
pact" he said to your correspondent"
| Germany might interpret that action
as the serving of notice that we would
not go to the aid of France in case of
an attack, and she might govern her
| attitude accordingly"
| AS the Senator, who is the leader in
the Senate of President Wilson's fight
to ratify the peace treaty and the
covenant as they are, argued recently
that the league would not accomplish
much and therefore is good thing,
SO he now says that while the triple
alliance between Great Britain, the
United States and France is not I'M
constitutional, still 1t will not be bind
ing upon any future Congress and
therefore should be ratified. 1T
would" he said, "be for any future
Congress to dtermine whether the
attack upon France was provoked or
unprovoked."
Meanwhile the question of whether
the policy of Washington, adopted for
more than a century, that the United
States should beware of intangling al
liances, shall be departed from Is be-
ing argued by the Foreign Relations
Committee.
